My family and I had an amazing time. We loved the location it was far enough that my little ones could sing and happily shout as loud as they wanted and not disturb any neighbors. God's beauty is all around this cabin. We can't wait to come again.

Beautiful location

Beautiful location right on Lake Vallacito with amazing views of surrounding mountains! Sunsets were spectacular with photo ops galore. Host, Connie, was awesome. Loved sitting outside on the glider watching our mini Aussie have the time of his life. Cabin is rustic and cozy, well equipped with everything we needed.

Relaxing Stay with Beautiful Scenery

We absolutely loved our stay here. What we appreciated most was the candid and accurate description of what to expect from the cabin. The owner’s honesty about the property's condition was refreshing, and we found it to be one of the most fun, creative, relaxing, and beautiful places we've stayed. This cabin is a rare gem and should be appreciated as such. The views of the reservoir and mountains are stunning, and the peaceful surroundings made for a perfect getaway.

Magical outdoors!

A rustic and eclectic cabin with a magical outdoor space that we spent nearly all our time. Such close access to the reservoir and within 20 minutes of some really great hiking. We, and especially our two dogs, loved our stay. Thank you!

Lake retreat heaven

Charming, quiet and relaxing. Nothing is misrepresented in the description. It is not everyone’s cup of tea. If you want new and shiny, go to a resort. For us, this was the ideal unplugged getaway. Fishing, water activities, hiking, wildlife.

Favorite Vallecito Property!

The location, the fenced yard, the hot tub, the kayaks, the fire pit…it’s just such a relaxing week when we come here. This is our 2nd year coming to the cabin, and we have plans to be back next year! We love that we can bring our pups and have them be a part of our end-of-summer vacation. Our girls love the upstairs bed with the twinkling lights. The host is very responsive and answered all the questions we had within minutes of texting her. Unlike some other vacation rentals we’ve stayed in, there is nothing in the kitchen besides what you need to cook with (pots, pans, utensils) and a few spices. Not an issue for us at all, but know that if you plan on cooking, you will need to bring all oils, condiments, etc. we did a grocery pickup in Pagosa on our way, but there are two little markets on the other side of the lake with some basics should you need it (most businesses around the lake are closed on Tuesdays, just FYI) Our kids also loved that there were some board games they could play with. Overall, this place has everything you need and we can’t wait to return!

Beautiful lake side cabin

Beautiful cabin by the lake with hot tub. Host was so nice and checked in on us. Left us kayaks and other great equipment to use on the lake. We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. Appreciated everything our host provided. This was a family trip so the rest of our family was spread out all over the lake but everything easy to get to and not real far. Couldn’t ask for a better trip!

Cabin on the lake

The property is perfect for a quiet, secluded getaway in the mountains, with terrific views of the lake and surrounding mountains (and a short walk down a hill to the shire). It’s in an absolutely gorgeous setting with lots of wildlife and things to do. We parked our car when we arrived and didn’t get back into it for days: fishing, hiking, mountain biking, birding, paddle boating from the cabin. The deck has gorgeous views for your meals or just relaxing. Bring a hummingbird feeder if you enjoy birds. Connie was very helpful and responsive to our inquiries.
