The property was spacious, clean, comfortable and well-provisioned for the needs of our family with the kids liked the fast internet. The views, particularly of the San Juan mountains and night sky were spectacular. It is true that the property requires quite a drive off the main highway (about 20 minutes), but it's worth it for the privacy and views. The roads are also well maintained and easy to drive in the summer. We'll definitely consider this property for future stays in the area. ##### Patrick J.

The property was clean and comfortable in every regard and to say the kitchen was well stocked is an understatement. Bill did a great job of communicating any need-to-know information and was quick to respond with any questions. I have no reservations recommending Elk Meadows whether as a base for exploring or just relaxing and enjoying the panoramic views without going anywhere. ##### Chad H.

Wonderful views for morning coffee on the deck. Mountain air at night is cool. Day is hot in summer. Surprised at first no AC. BUT sleeping at night was good. Only surprise was how far away from town the house really is. Great host though. ##### Philip V. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria de las Mercedes D.

We crossed path with deer daily, a small family of 3 would show up at the front of the house every morning. The place is very spacious, well stocked, perfect layout to keep the teens downstairs with their own bathroom and TV/video game room. Although we didn’t need help from Bill, he was checking in us every other day and was fast to reply. We would definitely come back. The road (specially in winter) might not be suitable for cars that are not 4x4\. ##### Maria de las Mercedes D. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cody M.

The house is very well done with the kind of high end custom finishes you don't expect from a vacation rental. The straw bale construction is super warm and insulative and the views from the property are unbeatable! Absolutely gorgeous property and house. The driveway is very steep and even given the light snow this year was a bit dicey. People uncomfortable driving in winter snowy conditions on snow packed dirt roads may find access challenging. Us mountain folk loved the location however and would've been more stoked only if there was more snow! Oh well, next time, hope to be back! ##### Cody M.
