Beautiful River setting

We enjoyed our weekend and loved being able to have our dog with us!! The location was great and we were able to do many day adventures in Gunnison. The river was beautiful and we enjoyed drinking our coffee and watching the wildlife. Easy check in and check out. Thank you!

Lovely Cottage by the river

We enjoyed our time in your cottage. Watching the birds, the deer and the duck races (with actual ducks) in the river kept us busy and amused. We even had a visit from a bear. Would highly recommend your home to anyone looking for total peace and quiet.

Nice, Clean, perfect location, love decor

We were there for a week to fly fish hike and float. Our visit was wonderful. The cottage was perfect. We are planning a return trip next year. My only recommendation is to have a larger garbage container in the kitchen.

Sightseeing!

Quaint little house on the river.We had deer everyday to watch out the windows. The beds and the bathroom were small and a bit outdated. 4 adults would have been a tighter fit, but for the 2 of us, cozy! We'd stay here again!

Pleasant Lodging

The property was nice. The second bedroom was A little small but the accommodations were comfortable. The best part of the property is that is backs up to the river. There is a swing by the river which makes is very enjoyable and relaxing in the evenings.

Stay

Property was adequate a few upgrade would be nice, such as a larger trash can in the kitchen and curtains or blinds in the living room. There’s a pull out bed next to a large window and it has no blinds or curtains that could be shut. A fan or window in the bathroom would have been nice.. a broom or shovel for the front porch to clean off snow. Overall,, it was a convent location and ok. Things I mentioned would have been a nice addition. Thank you for asking.

Just Almost Perfect ....

Beautiful, convenient place. My wife and I plus my adult daughter and her significant stayed very comfortably, cooked a few meals, had a blast. We spent most of our time out and about, but this was such a great place to come home to. My wife and I fly fished everyday (creeks and rivers between Gunnison and Crested Butte), and we had a nice comfortable back deck to drop our waders, rig up our rods, hang out, happy hour, watching the rafters, fishing guides, and eat dinners. Ducks, geese, deer shared our view. Saw them everyday. The only reason I say 'almost perfect' is because I was hoping we could wade out from the backyard and fish. At least while we were there the current was a little strong, water a little high, but so it goes with any river access. It was fun enough to watch a couple boat anglers catch a couple right in front of us. Easy in, easy out. No traffic noise, peaceful.

Relaxing by the River

Very comfy, peaceful place right on the Gunnison River.Great for 2 people. Town of Gunnison is nearby for supplies, groceries, restaurants. We got groceries at Natural Grocers and cooked in. Spent a lot of time out in the yard watching fishermen and rafters go by on the river.Spent a full day at Black Canyon of the Gunnison NP, which was about 60 miles away. Very quiet neighborhood.Only visitor was a deer who came by while we were out in the yard reading! Contacted the owner with a few questions and she answered promptly. Enjoyed or stay!

Cute

The property was nicely decorated and comfortable. 2 complaints, beds were old and very uncomfortable. The bath tub had a piece of trim that was coming off and was very gross. Cheap toilet paper which makes you use twice as much. Didn’t make sense to me. Donna was wonderful just need to replace the beds and work on the bathroom.

Excellent stay in Gunnison

My wife and I (and our little dog) had a wonderful time in Donna's place along the Gunnison River. In mid-May the river was quite full and fast. It is only 50 feet out the back door with chairs on the back deck or a swinging seat in the yard overlooking the river. As mentioned in her description we had deer walking thru the yard every day. There are places on either side but we never saw anyone or any other noises. Very quiet and peaceful. If you come in May know that at altitude (7700 ft) it can be very cold in the mornings but if the sky is clear it will warm up quickly. The place has baseboard heat which was effective at maintaining temps inside as the outside was in the upper 20's. The kitchen was outfitted well although we did not do any cooking. The appliances are relatively new and in good shape (fridge, over, m/w). Be careful the the microware as it is 1600 watts! Be conservative with the time until you know how it cooks!The wifi has a strong signal and it fast and reliable. The TV is large enough but uses the local ISP (Spectrum) with all the normal channels. Bring your own box if you want more (Roku, Google, Apple TV, etc). The single bathroom is not large but the medicine cabinet is stocked with everything you can imagine if you forget something. The showerhead has a strong flow and gets warm quickly without much waiting. There is a separate baseboard heater with its own thermostat in the bathroom so you can always keep it warm.
