Virgil’s Cabin on the River

Ready to Relax? Look no further! This Cozy Cabin that sleeps 11 is the perfect getaway. You can fish right in front of the cabin, or just sit and enjoy the peaceful sounds of the water rushing by. This location can’t be beat. You have a secluded getaway, that is conveniently located to all the top nearby attractions. Not to mention, you are right next door to Garlic Mike’s, one of the best restaurants in Gunnison! The free RTA is right out the door and will take you anywhere you want to go from Crested Butte, Mount Crested Butte, to Gunnison.  You are also across the street from a Bike Path that leads you to Downton Gunnison 3 just miles away.

Room Descriptions:
When you walk in the house there is a 1/2 bathroom and bunk-bed (full bottom bunk/twin top) close to the front door in an over-sized open spaced hallway. Past and above the bunk beds is a stairway that leads to the master bath and bedroom. Turn to the left past the stairs is a new bedroom with a king bed. On the other side of the house there is a bathroom and above the bathroom/Kitchen area is a loft with another two twin beds. The stairs to get to this is a ladder and not recommended for everyone (it's straight up and down against the wall).

The neighboring property is Grandpa's Cabin. Book both, bring friends! Grandpa and Virgil were best friend's. They knew what they were doing.

NO PETS:
Under Colorado state law
HB16-1426, it is a crime to knowingly misrepresent a companion, assistance, or emotional support animal to avoid pet fees or have an animal in housing that otherwise does not allow pets.

family birthday reunion
I am turning 70 this year and my son is celebrating his 6-year anniversary. We decided to make the mountains and Colorado our destination for celebrating and it worked out great as we already have one son living in Crested Butte. We had a great week together and loads of outdoor activities. i recommend these locations for family, this property fit all 9 of us comfortably. Very scenic on the river, close to town and restaurants, I would do it again.

Unbelievable View
We absolutely loved sitting by the river each night. The cabin has 4 nice lounge chairs by the river, a firepit and also 2 sets of outdoor chairs and tables. We grilled every night and one night walked next door to Garlic Mike's (make a reservation.) The upstairs loft is a bit difficult to get to with a straight up ladder, so don't plan on using it for kids or elderly adults. It was ok for 2 younger adults. Cabin is nicely equipped with cooking pans and utensils and lots of seating inside too. Bathrooms were clean and there are 3 of them. Being right on the river was amazing, we will definitely be back!

Great place, plenty of room for family. Close to town, bar & grill next door. But best of all was walking out the back door to see the beautiful river flowing with deer walking around early in the morning.

Fabulous
This is a very quaint cabin and its location on the river is spectacular. We were there for hunting season, and it was really great to drink our morning coffee by the river. We also took advantage of the fire pit as well. Overall a great experience.
