We loved the location and the stunning views! The house was very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Everything was exactly as described, and we had a wonderful stay. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to relax and enjoy the scenery.

The house was very comfortable, the rooms were good sizes, plenty of space but cozy at the same time. The view of the LaPlata mountains was great and the deck did not disappoint. Outside of town in a rural subdivision so a little darker at night, more stars than I see at home! Great option for us versus getting multiple hotel rooms in town for a family gathering.

The house was very dusty above eye level, the cleaning crew cleaned all areas that you visually see, but fail to clean areas higher up. Lots of Nick knacks that are all dusty, too much clutter. Also they didn’t mention that you have to drive up a dirt road for almost a mile. Your vehicle is always dirty. The house was very well stocked with everything you needed. The windows and screens are all dirty. The internet is always dropping if you need to work on a computer. I was not very impressed with this house. Tony C
