So relaxing
We had a great time at the cabin. Not only were we able to be close to fly fishing and hiking, but we had plenty of time to just do nothing. The cabin is nestled in the trees. Every morning we awoke to songbirds. It was truly a blessing for our family and a peaceful time.

Wonderful stay at the Little Ranch
Wonderful property off the beaten path. It’s in a beautiful setting with lots of privacy in the lovely Colorado pines. It was well stocked with a very comfy bed. Conveniently located between Durango and Pagosa Springs, you can quickly get to either location. We were lucky enough to wake up to a fresh snowfall in March! Overall I’d give it two thumbs up.

Wonderful cabin in the woods
Loved the beautiful peaceful location at the edge of the San Juan National Forest! Stayed with my husband and brother over Thanksgiving weekend. We were able to cook lots of delicious food in the well-stocked kitchen and were super cozy during the first big snowstorm of the year. James was a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed. We hope to stay again, we have family nearby and this was the perfect spot to stay. Thanks!

The cabin was a perfect fit! It was clean, well maintained and very comfortable. The kitchen was easy to cook in and fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, utensils, etc. We had trouble with the TV because the signal was weak but decided to enjoy a TV free week which turned out to be extremely peaceful! Thank you James! Your cabin is perfect!

Great getaway!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Little Ranch! The cabin was PERFECT for us! It’s a beautiful location, tucked away in the woods but easy to get to nearby attractions. James was a great host, responding quickly to any questions and gave great recommendations for the area. The Durango train ride to Silverton was truly fantastic and we had fun exploring the local national parks very close by as well as a little hiking around the cabin itself. We ate breakfast everyday on the peaceful porch as we watched hummingbirds. Bedding and towels are of good quality, kitchen is stocked nicely. Everything was incredibly clean and well thought out. Finding the place was easy too and there is a local grocery nearby. James has set up a wonderful retreat. We will definitely stay here again when we’re in the area.

Amazing!
This cabin was everything we wanted for our first trip to CO! The cabin was clean and furnished nicely. There was plenty of space for our family of 5. The kids enjoyed the loft space and the owner had provided hammocks on the property. We spent cool mornings on the porch with the gas fire pit. The property backs up to the San Juan National forest and we enjoyed hiking directly from the cabin. The cabin is about 30 minutes from Durango so we had the solitude but were able to commute to Durango for activities. We would happily rent this cabin again!

Peace & quiet at The Little cabin
We really enjoyed our time at the The Little Cabin. Everything was neat & clean. Very well appointed. We did the train ride in Durango, spent a day at Mesa Verde & went to the Chimney Rock. It was so nice to be able to come back and relax & enjoy the scenery. Highly recommend!!!

Outer Bayfield, CO Cabin
Stayed 4 nights, About 1.5 miles from HWY 160, Clean, comfortable, extra books, some quirks, but nice enough. Wheelchair ramp blocked by construction. Very hilly, but plenty of nearby mountains and trails. Nearby oil derick smelled of propane fumes, maybe? Nice BR1 downstairs, and roomy BR2 upstairs. Bayfield has nice stores and restaurants for a small town. Price right.

Our family was so pleased with our stay here. We were looking for a place in between Durango and Pagosa Springs and this was the perfect location, existing just outside Bayfield. The best feature of this place is that it is so private. We are a family with young kids and it was so nice to have privacy and so much space for the kids to play outside. The cabin is so perfect, with all the amenities anyone would need. We were fortunate to go when it was snowing, making a fire every night, with the kids hanging out with no electronics. I plan to try to book this location again in the future. I assure you will be more than satisfied with your stay here.
