We loved the property. It was clean, welcoming, and well stocked. The location was peaceful and beautiful. It is close to town and hiking. We all really enjoyed our time there. It was relaxing.
Beautiful house with awesome decks and a beautiful river and water fall flowing right in front. Love that the house was nestled up on the hill and private.
I wanted remote location, and this place certainly is, yet super close to town. What amazed me was the everchanging snow melt river, constantly changing the landscape throughout our stay. The property managers were always communicative throughout our stay.
The cabin was very welcoming and roomy. Within 2 minute drive down you're right on the main strip in Ouray. Very nice neighbor. The stream right next to the cabin was great background noise throughout the stay. The firepit out back is equipped well and a very nice relaxing area. The decks were spacious and even had little dog gates which was great! Overall wonderful stay in a lovely cabin for families!
Our stay was absolutely amazing. Me and my famiky had a balst and made lots of memories. Your property was amazing and very comfortable and relaxing. My 13 year old son loved playing in the river, and us adults love being by the fire and listening ti the river. I left a thank you gift on the kitchen counter
We had my wife and myself, 2 teenagers and my parents. Everyone thought the house was great. This house is in the foothills in Ouray and has two nice decks overlooking the stream below. It isn’t air conditioned but stayed cool even in the 90 degree heat! We loved how close it was to the perimeter trail and Box Canyon. Everything was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. Enjoyed using the brand new gas grill as well.

Such a beautiful location with a waterfall just right outside the door! A friendly neighbor nearby informed us that a flash flood that happened recently made the waterfall even bigger and the sound outside our door because of it was a dream. I truly didn’t want to leave the patio! Patio heater, grill and a fireplace below made the outdoor experience wonderful. In better words- this stay was beyond our expectations! Thank you so much for having us!

The home was very nice and in a very secluded quiet area. It was a little difficult to get to. We had been told that the furnace and fireplace had a service maintenance check before we arrived. However, the furnace did not work. It was mid September, and the night temperature was 40 degrees. The fireplace kept the upstairs warm, but the lower level was cold. We reported it the next day, and a service guy came out, and couldn't get the furnace to work. He bought 2 floor heaters for the downstairs bedrooms, which did help the 2nd night.The upstairs was very nice and clean. Our biggest complain was the downstairs had a terrible pet urine odor. We do not have pets, and do not want to stay in an area where pets have been allowed. So next time we will make sure to book a place where no pets are allowed.

We loved our stay here very much. The house was clean and well stocked, but it was the location that we loved the most. Not only is the cabin itself in a beautiful part of town, overlooking the creek, with gorgeous views, but it is within walking distance to popular hiking trails. We'll be back.
This house was a wonderful place to celebrate a 70th birthday and Mother's Day. It was very clean and had all we needed. The property manager delivered a special local treat for the birthday girl on arrival. The creek was loud and fun for my 7 and 3 year old to play in. This was a great getaway and we would recommend it to everyone.
Lovely home, beautiful location, all the amenities you’d need! We will be returning! Pictures don’t do it justice!

We had a phenomenal stay at this house! The “creek” was more like a river from the recent rains, we slept with the windows cracked open (it was cold!) and between the rushing river sound and the chilly air we all had the absolute best sleep of our lives. We spent every evening with a campfire in the fire pit, town is just a few minutes drive away (or walk if you’re in shape). The trail to box canyon falls is just a 2 minute walk from the house, we enjoyed that very much as well! Overall highly recommend.

Came back to Ouray where my late husband and I lived in the 1990s. The house was high in the mountains on the west side of town and good thing I had all wheel drive and knew how to use gears to slow car. There is one sharp turn (called a switchback in mountain driving). Enjoyed the stay very much as the setting was quiet away from the noise in town. Scenery outstanding.
