The BEST getaway location!!!

I can not say enough good about the entire process - from booking, to communication from the host, to the environment - all top rate!!!! The home is gorgeous and spacious - exactly as described and shown on the VRBO site. The host texted a few days ahead to communicate specific directions, and even met us to lead us to exact location. Overall, a perfect weekend!!

Quiet, peaceful and stars!

This cabin is bigger on the inside than it looks in the pictures. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. It was easy to communicate with Sheila. The property has unobstructed western views, so we saw a great sunset. We had a couple clear nights and the stars and Milky Way were incredible! It is quite a ways down a dirt road to get to the cabin, but once you’re there you will not want to leave.

Such an amazing stay!

We loved this place so much! It is off the beaten path quite a ways - as it says, you are deep within a cattle ranch property - but that was just what we were looking for. Lots of peace and quiet with beautiful views - even saw a herd of elk with babies down by one of the ponds onsite. Sheila the hostess was a treat to work with and came to the end of the driveway late at night to help us navigate the property to where we were staying to make sure we got settled in well. We also got to see her and her team herd some cows, which my teens enjoyed. The home was even prettier in person and quite spacious, more so than I thought it appeared online. There was a grill onsite and several pans so we were able to cook a few meals there too. We will definitely stay again next time we’re in the area!

It is such a quiet peaceful retreat. Sunsets were beautiful. We were there in the heat of July so the house was quite warm. The nights cooled down a little bit. The owners are present on the ranch so they were available to answer questions. I will definitely return.

This was the most peaceful, beautiful place to stay! An excellent choice for getting away from the chaos and only a short drive to Glenwood springs. We will definitely be coming back. The view from the porch is amazing. Sheila is an excellent host and makes sure you have everything you need. The cabin is very clean and had plenty of space for us and our three kids.

Beautiful Mountain Stay

This is a beaurtiful place with breathtaking views. Sheila was a wonderful host and extremely accomodatng. We had arrived very late at night and she still met us and showed us the way to the property. We hope to rent this property again when we visit Glenwood Springs. 5 out of 5 starts for everything.

Quiet retreat

Perfect home if you want to get away from the bustle of a busy vacation season. It was so quiet and so peaceful. It is a bit of a drive if you're planning a lot of activities in town but it was worth it to us.

Wonderful!

What a wonderful getaway. I decided to rent this property for a long weekend based on others' positive reviews, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The location, although off the beaten path, was a welcome change of pace from busier areas along I-70. It was also easy proximity to several state parks in the area. And Shelia was extremely welcoming and helpful! The place was beautiful and well stocked in terms of kitchen cooking utensils, towels, sheets, etc. (everything you would need). We felt really fortunate to get to stay in such a nice home and my two nieces loved exploring the property.
