It was great for our gathering and had lots of room for our big group. There are 3 king beds and 2 queen beds and they were all super comfy: it was only a 5 minute walk to Orvis hot springs too!

Good for 6 people, not 8

Overall was nice, however I missed that the "sleeps 8" means that 3 people have to sleep in each king size bed. I thought the couch was a pullout, and the teenagers could have slept on that. It is awkward having 2 adults and a 16 or 17 year old share a king size bed (twice since we had 8 in our party and there was only one queen and two king beds). A sign on the basement door indicating "do not enter" would have ben appreciated instead of a tiny sign on the desk downstairs in the basement saying so. We were looking for more bedrooms.

Very Short Stay

We were hoping to spend longer than 4 hours here. After traveling from Albuquerque, we were ready to enjoy the quietness and cool air. Unfortunately, my husband’s oxygen levels were really low. After a visit to the EMS 2 miles away, we were convinced by the deputy head EM Technician we should leave immediately and go to Montrose, CO 2400 ft lower in elevation. I wish we could have spent the night here.

Loved our stay at the Orvis Outpost! It was a perfect size for our group. And a perfect staging point for our backpacking trip out of Ouray. It is great and right across the street from the Orvis hot springs!
