Absolutely blissful

This place felt so private. We were so comfortable in a well maintained home, while also feeling like we were camping in the middle of nowhere. Hosts were responsive and friendly. Also there were more beds than we expected with the pull out couches! So happy with our experience and would recommend to anyone.

A Remote White Christmas

The property is just like the pictures. Most of our group was from Oklahoma City (we drove up) but some were visiting from Mexico and we all wanted to play with the snow. We were able to go sledding right on th property. Kids made forts, igloos, snow sculptures. It was everything we wanted. They even had a tree.and decorations up. Thank you!Theinsects in hard to

Great getaway spot

Be warned, while Colbran is only 20 or so miles away it is a lot of roads with slow speed limits, so it does take a while to drive to town. That said, this is a gorgeous location! The house is nice and had plenty of towels and blankets for everyone. Lots of cows nearby, and this trip had the most wildlife I'd ever seen. Deer, mountain goats, rabbits, and foxes! With the wildflower fields nearby, I could not have imagined a better place to elope.

Fabulous views

There were Fabulous views from porch, great time viewing night sky and seeing an awesome shooting star! Sadly, while we were there, the hot tub was unusable because of algae and unclean. We tried contacting property owner, but we were unable to get it rectified during visit. Spacious accommodation, but kitchen could be better accessorized. Thank you for letting us stay.

It was the perfect location for a family reunion. The only disappointment was that the promised included kayaks and inner tubes appeared to have departed with previous guests. The extra table leaf allowed us all to eat together and the outdoor fire pit greatly contributed to our ability to watch the July/August meteor showers.

Amazing views

We had a really wonderful time at Vega Lake Retreat! The views of the lake, mountainside, and pasture lands were incredible. The walking trails on the property were lovely, the fishing in the lake was pretty good. The owner communicated quickly and effectively. Our only reccomendation would be to add some window coverings on the east and west of the property, the evening and morning sun were really too much.
