We stayed in Bruce and Vanessa's cabin for 9 nights late June/ early July. Vanessa was there to greet us, go over the cabin, and made us feel at home. The cabin and the grounds/deck are just beautiful with the peeks of the San Juans from the windows and the Dallas River running right throught the property. The captian's stairs to the loft area and bedroom are steep but very doable as long as you come down backwards. Older visitors may not like this. The bed was very comfortable, firm but not hard and the shower downstairs had great water pressure. Of course, there is no air conditioning but on our warmer days, Vanessa was kind enough to find a fan for us which helped us sleep better. In all fairness, I must mention the internet connection, which Bruce and Vanessa have no control over, but if someone was planning on working, one should know that it can be spotty. It will cut out while watching streaming services and sometimes your phone will have a connection, sometimes not. It seemed to work a little better upstairs at night. Just useful info for those that might be working remotely. Regardless, we were there for the mountains and access to everything was right there: 5 minute drive to Ridgway, 10-15 min to Ouray, and about 25 min to Montrose. If in Ridgway, make sure to get reservations to Provisions Cafe, the best meal we had while in the area, and pay a visit to Bruce and Vanessa's art gallery, charming! My husband and I hope to have our own place in Ridgway and we can't thank Bruce and Vanessa enough for welcoming us and making us feel at home.
