About this cabin rental
Nestled next to the river in the majestic Upper Blanco Basin at an elevation of 8200’ hear the cascading water from either the porch or upstairs balcony. This property is surrounded by natural beauty and immersed in tranquility. The two story chalet has glass views on front and side facing the river. Kitchen, dining, fireplace, bathroom, utility and living are downstairs with two open bedrooms up. Master bedroom is king and has a draw curtain for privacy. Guest bedroom is queen with private door to balcony. Amazing, panoramic views of Rio Blanco River and San Juan National Forest easily accessible yet tucked in the woods yet just minutes to Pagosa Springs. Secluded and private, with the feeling of 'getting away from it all'. Enjoy this breathtaking and beautiful view while sitting on the outdoor deck enjoying dinner, your favorite beverage or communing with nature. The cabin is completely furnished, including towels, linens, and a full kitchen recently remodeled along with utility room with washer and dryer. From the cabin you can hike many of the trails or from the town of Pagosa Springs checkout waterfalls, horseback riding, additional hiking, rafting, hot springs, mountain biking, and other outdoor activities.

Perfect area to bring your ATV. Cool trails to explore from cabin. Saw bear, elk, deer and much more. The river noise at night from upstairs bedroom was so calming. Beautiful area to explore. Very cozy comfortable cabin. We will be back—wasn’t ready to leave.

I will cherish the weeks we stayed at River Chalet. It was my first experience with VRBO and I couldn’t have picked a more enchanting cabin. I’m so thankful Pylar has a heart for animals and that the cabin is pet friendly. My pups and I LOVED every day we spent on the basin. It was quiet and we didn’t have any neighbors to worry about. The 14 miles down a dirt road wasn’t a problem for me as I enjoyed sightseeing and unplugging from city life.
The kitchen was a joy to cook in. Appliances and kitchen tools were great! The only item missing is a bread toaster.
For our next visit I would love to have access to a bear proof trash bin located on site. This would make disposing of trash a lot easier than having to transport elsewhere. I think there typically is a trash receptacle present at the property but there was a misunderstanding and I didn’t have one for the stay.
Again, the cabin is wonderful…
I hope we get to visit again.
Thank you!

Loved the private river front setting. This property offers peace and quiet while being surrounded by nature. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. The owners were great to work with. This is a perfect pet-friendly getaway. We will definitely be back!

We stayed here middle of September for 6 nights to do some social distancing hiking / biking in the area. It is located in a beautiful area and definitely away from others in peaceful solitude. The trade off is that It is 40 minute drive on mountain (gravel) road instead of the advertised “minutes from Pagosa springs”- which got old after a few days. Most hiking trails we wanted to do were spread out all directions so a more central location may have been better for us. We drove an hour or more to most trails (piedra river, chimney rock, Fourmile falls, treasure falls). On the flip side- We explored 2 great trails near the cabin (10-15 min drive) but did not walk from cabin- opal lake and leche falls are on the same road. When we checked in the cabin was not the cleanest and definitely not additional Covid clean. We travel with cleaning supplies so went to work for an hour to get it to a comfortable level. The property manager stopped by a few days later to go over property boundaries (apparently neighbors are very touchy abt anyone crossing the lines) which added a bit of anxiety abt being outside and enjoying the river/ yard. King bed upstairs was very comfortable and bedding was good quality. There is a washer and dryer to use which was much appreciated. Upper deck was a great place for happy hour among the San Juan mountains! Mountain View’s are great- would recommend for a couple or small family wanting to enjoy nature or solitude.
