The upstairs has a queen bed and a full bath with Jacuzzi tub/shower. The main level is an open floor plan for the living/kitchen/dinning. The couch has a queen pull out bed with a memory foam mattress. There is a in floor heat that is on a thermostat for constant comfort in the cooler months, while the thick adobe walls keep the house nice and cool in the summer months.

Great Place!

I stayed here with my Mom and it was perfect. Other places we have stayed in the same area, we’ve had to clean when we checked in before we felt comfortable. This place was amazing and very clean! Owner was great to deal with! We plan to stay here again next year!

Perfect for adventure and relaxation

I brought my parents here so i could show them the gunnison/crested butte area. This was perfectly located for this kind of trip. My parents are already asking to stay here again in the future the next time they come out. The home was clean, beds were comfortable. The patio was perfect for cooking evening dinner and relaxing during the summer evening. Would definetly recommend this stay and will come back in the future.

Fall Colors

We had a great stay at this very excellent property! I’m certain it was easily the cleanest VRBO we’ve ever visited! Well done! Peaceful and serene, close to the highway but completely soundproof. Our travel goal was to view the changing colors and Crested Butte, Kebler Pass, Lake City and Slumgullion Pass were all amazing! Bonus points for the proximity to Garlic Mike’s and the river. 10/10 recommend!
