The R-Bar-D Ranch and Guest Cabin are truly one-of-a-kind, offering a serene setting to explore the region's abundant beauty. Words cannot fully express the genuine hospitality Randal & Debbie provided throughout our stay. From the moment we arrived we felt at home.

Randal and Debbie were so hospitable, they knew we were arriving late and set the heat and lamps on so that it was easy to navigate and warm.They were also so kind, and communication was great and easy. Thankful to have experienced this great cabin, it was the get away we needed and so close to all the things to explore. We saw a lot of wildlife on the property/near by which was great. The cabin was so inviting and cozy. Also - the view from the main bedroom each morning was special and appreciated!

A very relaxing cabin

We had such a great stay, having cocktails while gazing at the mountains, barbecuing on cools nights, watching the weather roll in on rainy days, and exploring the many hiking trails in the area. Randal and Debbie were exemplary hosts which made the stay that much more special.

Stunning property, excellent stay!

R Bar D Ranch was stunning where we had an experience like no other! Beautiful scenery and quiet, serene surroundings. Saw deer just about everyday. The cabin was just as it was explained in the rental summary and then some. Enjoyed walking our dog around the property. Randal was very communicative and it was a pleasure getting to know. Enjoyed his company and learning about the history of his property. We highly recommend this property and can’t wait to visit again!

Hidden Gem with Amazing Views!

We were so excited to find this property - the R Bar D Ranch cabin is wonderful- spacious, well equipped & comfortable with a beautiful back deck to take in the stunning view of the San Juan mountains and Mt. Sneffels. The deer are regular visitors & we enjoyed seeing them daily. Randal is the most welcoming and attentive host! It was a perfect base camp for us to play golf, hike, and visit Ridgway, Ouray and Telluride. I can’t wait to return. Many thanks to our hosts!

This property and the host, Randal, was perfect in every respect for my wife and me and our daughter and son-in-law. The property was better than advertised. It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was great for our intended activities in the Ridgway/Ouray/Montrose/Black Canyon area. We especially enjoyed the many acres of quiet, secluded rural property with absolutely gorgeous fields of gamble oak, aspen, grasses, and shrubs, in full autumn color, with browsing deer and mountain views. Wow! Randal was outstanding. His communication from booking through departure was great and he excelled in making sure we had a great experience during our stay. Great value and highly recommended!

Awesome basecamp in Ridgway

If you're looking for a quiet place to explore the San Juans, this is an incredible option. Perfectly appointed cabin on a ranch with tons of space. About a 10-minute drive down to Ridgway. The host, Randal, is super welcoming and available to answer any questions. Really a great place to stay in SW Colorado.
