This was a great mountain retreat. It had enough space for all the family and had adequate supplies for everyone. We all enjoyed our time there.

The property was better than the photos! It was so comfortable with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and was stocked with everything we needed from outdoor games to pantry staples, laundry soap, and more! We especially enjoyed the hummingbirds, the heated deck, fire pit and the wedding site was beautiful!

Everything about this place was amazing. The property manager was great and always answered my questions right away. The place was so peaceful and breathtaking. The town of Dolores was very friendly. And watching the wildlife was calming. We can’t wait to book this property and stay there again ❤️🥰

We had a great time at this property. Plenty of room for everyone. Very clean. Close to interesting places to visit. Owner and property manager were great to work with.

We loved every minute

This was our third stay at the property and I still can't say enough about it. It's always clean, comfy and the best place to stay in the mountains. The property owners are very communicative and again, Anna, the manager, is always there when needed; friendly and more than helpful. The river was at the highest we'd ever seen and made for great ambiance/sound sitting on the deck. Every morning there were deer in the yard to watch and this year's bonus was the hummingbird feeders were up and we must have had 50 of them buzzing around all day. Just beautiful. I could sit out there all day and do nothing! But there's so many things close to see and we did a day trip to Arches National Park and Silverton this year. Already looking into dates for next year and will always be our go-to when visiting such a beautiful and amazing part of Colorado. We can't recommend this place enough!

We rented this cabin for our small mid-April wedding made up of 16 people total and the space was perfect. We had plenty of rooms and the cabin is so big that it never felt crowded, even after caterers and photographers showed up. Everything was exactly as described and more. Anna went above and beyond to ensure that we were updated on the local weather conditions so we could plan for the ceremony. Because of the muddy conditions, we weren't able to use the ceremony site, instead we married in front of the fire pit in the backyard and it was gorgeous. Due to the location, we were worried that it would be difficult for everyone to find, but with Anna's detailed pictures it was easy to find; no one had any issue. This cabin made our dream wedding come to fruition. We highly recommend the space!

Our family group of 13 and dogs had an excellent stay. Kitchen and dining table area was great for everyone to share, cook, eat, and play games in. The deck was were I spent most of my time personally, enjoying coffee in the am, the a cocktail in the evening. All other areas and bedrooms are more than enough for the entire group (and more) to spread out and do their own things if desired. We would definitely stay here again!!

We had an amazing time. The cabin was so roomy and had so many beds! The kitchen was very well equipped for cooking for large groups. The temperature was as low as 6 degrees but we were always warm and toasty inside the well insulated cabin with 3 warm fireplaces fully stocked with plenty of wood! Also, the outdoor fire pit had a covered stack of wood nearby so we had a fire and made s’mores. Of course, they had s’mores marshmallow poles ready to go on site. There are three living areas- plenty of room for people to spread out if needed. The views will absolutely amaze you. The front windows look out upon a mountain side. There are board games, dvds, books, magazines, sleds… everything you need. Even a pack and play for those with a baby. If you go during the winter, definitely have 4WD for the driveway or tire chains.

This house is beautiful! A little difficult to get to in the winter with a big van but well worth the stay!

This was definitely a great experience the snow was amazing the house fit all 14 of us perfect. The driveway a little scary but we survived 😂. But OMG the view that we had was just amazing. Eating at that dinning room table and look out that window was just breathtaking. Definitely will be back in the summer.

The property was awesome. Beautiful. And the snow was perfect for kids and most adults to sled and tube. Cabin was more than ample for our 20 folks. Kids and adults played games. Not so much on phones. Lol. The manager Anna went above n beyond helping when my tires lost grip on the driveway. The driveway will give one a 0 pucker factor the first time and if you happen to lose traction and leave one wheel hanging over the edge, everything tightens up a bit. Lol. Just added to our adventures and memories. Four wheel drive or snow socks for tires on two wheel drives are recommended by me.

Location offered the seclusion we were looking for. We had a big crew and the rooms worked well to accommodate all the families and the age ranges. The water for the facility is supplied by spring that slowly keeps the 3k gallon tanks filled. We never had an issue with supply although we were mindful and creative with how we consumed water. The only thing that didn't work the best was the kitchen faucet. We think some mineral deposit hindered the flow which made for a slow dish washing experience. The manager did offer to send the maintenance man to look at it but we declined as it did not concern us enough to bother the maintenance man to come when it could be addressed later. Anna, the property manager, was clear on communication and prompt when we had a question. Some of our party thought that the listing could have been more detailed about the contents of the kitchen in terms of pots and pans. The lodge was well stocked with toilet paper and towels. Plenty of fridge and freezer space. There are two fridges/freezers down below on the lowest level ( plus a whole 'nother kitchen ). The kids enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor fireplaces. The owners provide plenty of wood for both. As the owner will say if you decide to come here, be prepared for the driveway. I liked it. Most of us had 2x4 vehicles and we made it just fine but we had favorable weather conditions during our stay. Basically a great place.

This property was perfect for our first cousins trip. Everything on this property was beautiful. The view was amazing. We loved both outdoor fire places. My family and I will definitely come back to this house.

We love it here! 2nd time was just as amazing as the 1st. Everything you need available at the house and plenty of room for everyone. Guests of all ages in our group loved it. Anna the manager is extremely helpful and communicative! Hope to return again thank you!

Better than we could have ever expected, the property manager was top notch as well. We are already planning another trip for our anniversary next year. (Beware of Durango Party Rental for Weddings)

The water pressure was nil, not even enough to run the dishwasher. We did finally get to use the clothes washer and shower as long as it was only one faucet at a time, if anyone ran another tap or even flushed the toilet it was all over. Other than that the place was ok.

If we could give 6 stars we would! Anna was SO helpful leading up to the wedding. She responded quickly with information and suggestions. She even held onto packages for us and had them at the house for us upon arrival. We had travel issues and she remained flexible with us! We had a total of 32 people staying on the property and we all had beds to sleep on. The attic was a little uncomfortable at night due to heat/doors closed not allowing good air flow but there were a couple fans in the house to help! Everything here is well stocked and taken care of. The town is close enough for anything you might need and is quite friendly with some good restaurants and coffee. We hope to return and stay again!

We brought 37 people to stay and this place was fabulous!! Plenty of room for all to sleep and play and fellowship. The cabin is remarkably well equipped - even 2 coffeepots, perfect for our large group!! The multiple living spaces made it easy to have fellowship on the main floor and the kids could spread out their toys upstairs, while others shot pool in the basement and conversation flowed on the deck. Speaking of....we especially enjoyed the deck. There were regularly people gathered there for chats, and the propane fire table was a favorite. The hummingbirds were immensely entertaining!! We also enjoyed hiking up to the little wedding/gathering area - the wildflowers were beautiful! We had a couple of issues and the property manager was quick to respond. All in all, we loved our stay and hope to come back!!

We rented the lodge for our family reunion and really enjoyed our stay!

This was such an amazing place to stay. Everything about it was perfect, and the lodge manager was so kind, helpful and available for anything we may have needed. Thank you for hosting us!

The lodge was beautiful. We love the themed bedrooms and the comfortable living areas. We loved watching the hummingbirds eat at the feeders hanging on the porch and looking for deer in the back yard. We had a lovely visit.

We have rented large houses for this family reunion many times and this one checks all the boxes. Plenty of space for our tribe of twenty ranging in age from 2 to 95. The kitchen is well designed and very well stocked with staples. The beds are comfy. The outdoor space with fire table and gas grill brings the woodsy feeling up close. The fire pit is big enough for all to enjoy. The surrounding area provides hiking, biking, fishing and other activities that Colorado is known for. The Towns of Dolores and Cortez off all needed services and some nice restaurants. Town of Teluride is less than an hour away and offers a much more upscale experience but still fun even if you’re just window shopping. The flock of hummingbirds was a unique feature of the house that kept the kids entertained and the grownups busy mixing up more food for the tiny birds. On a scale of 1 to 10, we all agreed that this house is an 11

There was 20 of us, ranging in age from 5-67 y/o. Everyone had a bed and plenty of space to spread out. We all loved just sitting around the fire pit/table on the wrap around porch, drinking our coffee in the mornings or kicking back after a long day of playing. The house and property was perfect for us! And no one could get over how well stocked it was!

My daughter had her wedding here and it was perfect!! The pictures don't do it justice!! The cabin is well stocked and had a lot more than I thought (out door games, baby gates, blow up mattress, outdoor chairs, spices for cooking). Having 2 kitchens was wonderful for the group we had. The downstairs kitchen opens up to the backyard and was perfect for the catering company to prepare food for the reception dinner. The ceremony site is a bit challenging to walk to but it's BEAUTIFUL. We did take a few vehicles up to accommodate the bride and a few others. Nice trails and river near the cabin and even a fort for the kids. Within an hour to Durango, Telluride or Cortez. Cell phone service is a bit spotty but there is a land line. Lovely location and loved our stay.

For years, my partner and I have pictured our wedding as an intimate affair with our immediate family. We had always hoped to find a large cabin in the mountains large enough to sleep ourselves, grandparents, parents, siblings and nieces/nephews. We are not exaggerating in saying that having our wedding here was a dream come true. The property itself was absolutely beautiful and the property manager was communicative throughout the week before and week of our stay. We could not be more pleased and plan to visit again in the near future.

As a family we loved staying here. I was able to have my 4 children and their spouses along with 12 of my grandchildren. We had plenty of space. The outside was so beautiful The owners were so accommodating if I had any questions. They even texted when the property was ready and it was ready a few hours before the check in time at 4. We definitely made great memories there. We were able to visit Mesa Verde one day and Telluride the next day. The house was centrally located for both.

It was excellent. We had 14 kids and 11 adults. This is the 2nd family reunion we've had at this location and we'll do it again. Beautiful surroundings and enough appliances such as ovens and fridges to handle our large group.

Amelia always was quick to respond to any questions I had. I truely appriciated that she didnt charge me for the wedding area until she knew it was usable. We booked a spring wedding and closely watched the weather to see if we could use it. The weather allowed the property manager Anna to get the area prepared and the wood restrained a few days before the wedding. The wedding area was a tough walk for anyone elderly or just out of shape.. lol. We did drive up there. We had a toyota highlander drive up with no issues and a chevy traverse which was a bit wide and low and we did have to pull the mirrors in and there was some grinding but no body damage done. The wedding area was absolutely stunning! We were going to decorate but honestly there was no need. It was breath taking! We had music downloaded and a wireless speaker up there. Men were brought up first then guests and last load was mother of the bride, flower girl and bride. It all flowed perfectly. The house qas large enough to house over 20 guests ranging from 65 to a one year old. My mother did have a hard time with the stairs but there is a queen bedroom and bathroom on main floor so she didnt have to use the stairs. Just know if you do have guests eith bad knees there are only 2 rooms on main floor and with the elevation you do get winded easily. There was a baby gate so we could block off the bottom floor to the younger kids. High chair and port a crib available. All rooms had fans and heaters! The pantry was very stocked! Id check the house before placing a grocery order. I had pre placed a pick up order before arriving at cortez walmart and alot of the dry goods were unneeded. They had plenty of coffee, flour, sugar, and seasonings on hand. I did make my own cake and icing and brought my mixer along. They do have a hand mixer there tho so it wasnt a requirement. They had a cake stand and slicer and server there. I did buy and leave a rubber spatula and an oven thermometer for future guests. The property does have wear and the furnature could and games could definitely be updated. The internet did work for phones but the streaming was awful however we didnt go to watch tv! We had smores on the deck and a fire down in the fire pit. We grilled burgers and had an amazing time. The house was full of laughter and honestly just an absolutely perfect time.

The stay was wonderful. The house was very nicely stocked.
