We were informed, after reaching out, that the water was not good to drink or use for cooking. Could have been potential health risk.

I enjoyed this property. The outside deck and seating area by the River was very nice. My only critique would be the water had a strong metallic smell. Not sure if it’s due to being in a well. I didn’t drink or cook with it

Great spot right on the river. Had everything we needed. Plan to drink and cook with bottled water as the tap water has an off taste.

Facility was very clean and well appointed. It was close to downtown Gunnison and was on the Gunnison River. Only drawback was the close proximity to major road. However it was peacefully sitting on backyard deck overlooking the Gunnison River. Host was very nice and provided great service and ammenities . Would go back again..

We stayed three nights and used Gunnison as a home base to visit Crested Butte, the Black Canyon, and go white water rafting. The house is right on the Gunnison and we enjoyed watching the river flow by. The house is well appointed and comfortable, but could use some attention and perhaps more oversight. Of two chairs near the fire pit, one is broken and appears to have been for some time. When we arrived there was some garbage in the driveway - looked an animal had gone through the garbage. The fresh flowers meant to welcome us were dead.

Great little neighborhood; quiet and comfortable. Great place for walks. The back yard has been cleaned up and we were able to fish right there. Are at the table outside most often. New TVs and chair since our visit in 2019.

I don’t like to leave negative reviews but I know these are things I would like to know before choosing a place to stay and I feel it’s important feedback for owners and managers. Overall this property had a lot of of potential… nice size for a family, on the river, decent location for spending time in crested butte. The property manager, Clare, was responsive and helpful. However, when we opened the front door we were overcome with a terrible smell. So bad I wasn’t sure how we could stay all week. We figured out the area rug in the living room was a primary source of the smell so we removed it to the garage. This helped a bunch but the master bedroom carpet still smelled terribly of pet odor. We had to buy odor sprays and leave windows open just to tolerate for sleeping. The carpet badly needs replacing. The other main issue is the water. It has a horrible metallic taste. We had to used bottled water for cooking and brushing teeth. I’ve never had well water taste that bad so it seems there may be a problem that needs addressing. Like I said, the property has potential but needs some updated furniture, bedding and CARPET.

Clean and comfortable.
i gave four stars because there are missing light bulbs and the water heater makes too much noise. Perhaps if you drain it the noise will abate. Probably cannot do much about the low water pressure. If it was my place I would cut the weeds in the back yard.

Nice place but some maintenance is needed. Water issues: not hardly any water to take a shower with. Need screen on window to cool house. Caretaker took excellent care of us . Beautiful area.

The house was good, except for the water pressure and high weeds. You could only run one faucet at a time. Only 1 person could shower at a time and you could only flush one commode at a time. When water was running in one place you had no water anywhere else in the house. The weeds in the backyard were so high you could not see the river from the house or the backyard. Was very disappointed that we could not enjoy the beautiful river in the back. There was one small piece of concrete on the river that you could stand on and see the river. However the pathway to the concrete was covered in high weeds. Would recommend that weeds be cut and the water pressure checked.
