Fantastic hosts The property was on a great vantage point overlooking the valley and had a very claer view of the entire night sky in all directions for excellent stargazing. With the low humidity and elevation the night sky was among the best I've ever seen in the entire US. Easily a top 3 pick while still being very close to modern conveniences such as a grocery store and pharmecy. ##### Evan B.

First of all, it was super clean, with plenty of towels and the kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and everything you need. Second, it was one of the most quiet places I’ve been in a long time and the stars were so plentiful. The setting is very dramatic with sweeping views of the mountains in the distance. Tracy, the host, was super easy to communicate with and very responsive. Such an interesting and comfortable place to spend some time. Highly highly recommend.

There are restaurant options and a small grocery store in town, most places close at 8. I do wish that the bedroom upstairs had blinds/tint or something on the skylights. If you want to sleep in, that isn’t the room for you, it also gets pretty warm up there compared to the rest of the house. We got to watch deer daily in the morning and evenings and it was an very quiet area. The house was well stocked with all necessities and check in/out was a breeze! ##### Allison M. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tara K. Dec 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### As Advertised...and more! From the posting to the reviews - on Vrbo and in the living room Guestbook - this stay was what we had searched for. It was interesting staying in an A-frame. There was a family of deer just beyond the patio. The pantry and fridge stock was a pleasant surprise. The main street was better than any we saw the whole way up from ATX. And how fun that Westcliffe is also the 9th International Dark Sky City! We loved learning all about and using the telescope. The book even had tips to increase one's "night vision." We also loved how close it was to the trailheads and that while we didnt have much snow on the property, we went 15min down the road to the trailheads and enjoyed being on the mountains you see from the property and sledding! Overall though, it was my 9yo boy saying "this is my favorite rental so far. Let's do this one again." And after just 1 night. ##### Tara K.

We’ve traveled the Rockies from Glacier National Park down through Idaho, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Jackson Hole & we’ve never stayed at a place with a better view. The Blue Elk is cozy, charming, warm & welcoming. The communication from the owner was fantastic. Very well stocked kitchen, everything you could need. The only things you need to be aware of is if you’re going & there’s a chance of snow you’ll need a 4x4. And the beds aren’t the most comfortable. But otherwise it’s fantastic. 5 stars!

The house is very comfortable and the fireplace made the chilly nights extra cozy inside. You have everything you need to cook, relax and unwind. Many excellent hiking trails in the Sangre de Cristos are nearby and the view across the valley is amazing. You feel like your on top of the world at this wonderful location. Really enjoyed the beautiful sunsets, dark skies and plentiful shooting star sightings. ##### Jabon M.
