Perfect!

This home is perfect for a very relaxed stay. The location in a very nice small town makes it easy for obtaining any supplies you could use. Nice shopping and easy town to get around in. day trips to interesting places are easy. The property is modern, clean, well furnished and quiet. We enjoyed watching the deer walk past with their fawns and seeing ducks in the stream. All in all a great place.

Nice place to spend a few days in the heart of the Colorado wilderness. Very comfortable place for my wife and I with 3 bedrooms and 2 Baths, with patio, porch and backyard. Close to everything in Gunnison and 30 minutes to Crested Butte. Quite & private location.

Comfortable and Convenient

The house is conveniently located in a complex of vacation homes and rentals on the west side of town. The recliner couches made for a comfortable stay. The house was cool inside even when outside temperatures were above 90. The internet was fast and there are two smart TVs (note though that guests must sign in to apps they want to use). The house is a duplex but the neighbors were quiet. There is no view of the small stream by the house but the West Tomichi Riverside Park is a 2-3 minute drive.

Nice

We’ve stayed in the subdivision many times while hunting. This house is at a good location. I like the reclining couches and there is plenty of room in the bedrooms. My main complaint of this particular home was that there are weak floor boards that are so squeaky that it woke up the entire house. This is focused mainly on the downstairs bedroom. Other that’s that it was fine.

Get away trip

Had issues with the lock. Could not get it to work properly upon arrival. Put call in to manager and they came right away and had to replace battery. Then when leaving could not input code to indicate we had vacated the property. Had to call and let them know we were leaving. The property was as indicated on the web site and was very comfortable. Our family enjoyed it.

Visiting my son who's at WCU

This is a great place to stay. It's so quiet, clean comfortable place to stay. It's close to restaurants, Safeway, coffee, you name it. The college is maybe 3-5 mins away, as well. There's a HUGE master bedroom upstairs with a king size bed. However, it was just me, so I slept in one of the downstairs bedrooms and the bed was incredibly comfortable! This home is connected to the home next-door. You never hear the neighbors, except, when they come home. You hear their front door close. I live in a quiet area on the front range and was pleasantly impressed by how quiet this area was, especially with common walls shared with the neighbors. I would absolutely stay in this home again, if they would have me. Thank you for letting me stay in your comfortable home!
