This is our second year coming to Lake City and this was once again a wonderful vacation with friends and family. This house was PERFECT for our group: we had ourselves and another family stay here and it worked perfectly with plenty of room for all of us. The house itself was well stocked and in the most perfect location. We had access to the creek, firepit, the walking/biking bridge and trails and so easy to just walk into town. Highly recommend staying here! We loved it so much I asked to stay an additional night and it was the easiest thing to do. Will stay here again!

Beautiful "cabin" close to everything in Lake City. Lovely listening to the river out the windows, being able to walk downtown in moments, across the bridge and onto the nature trails in seconds, and all of the homey touches inside like nice quilts and beautiful furnishings really make you never want to leave. Upstairs bedrooms both have sinks in them which was nice, but do note the two bedrooms and the bunk beds upstairs just share one bathroom. So if that could be an issue for your group just note that. We made it work with no problem for both sets of grandparents and three of us. Look forward to going back!

This was our second stay to this property in the last three years- the home is well furnished and a short walk to town. There were three couples in our group and we each had our own room with a sink- the two couples upstairs had to share toilet/batch facilities so it was a bit crowded at times- could probably use another full bath just for privacy. There is no AC in this home, but the weather was cool the week we were in town (8.14 through 8.20) so we just opened the windows and were all comfortable. Great location for those who are looking to ride trails on ATVs- quick access to everything you need.

An amazing week in Lake City!

What a wonderful week! We loved our stay at Ritz on the River and in Lake City. We used to live in Denver but never made it to this part of the state. Wow! We have found our new favorite mountain town and can’t wait to come back. The cabin was beautiful and very well stocked. Our whole family (ages 2-62!) enjoyed it and we had plenty of space for everyone. Loved the walkability to downtown and the large outdoor space to relax next to the river. Highly recommend this place for a wonderful vacation!

This is the second time we have stayed in this house. We all enjoyed our stay so much! We enjoyed the river being so close, the fire pit, and the bridge to a walking trail. It was nice that we could walk to town to shop or get ice cream. There was plenty of room for the eight of us We would highly recommend this lovely home for your stay in LC.

We stayed in this lovely log cabin when we traveled to Lake City to climb Handies Peak. We absolutely loved staying in Bennet Cabin. We enjoyed cooking our meals in the well appointed kitchen and enjoyed the family centered common areas. The location was perfect. We walked into town for dinner and light shopping. We loved being located right on the river. We would love to come stay again!
