Located in Mancos, this welcoming cottage brings it all within your reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 9-minute drive to Mesa Verde Visitor and Research Center or the 10-minute drive to Mesa Verde National Park Entrance (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

Once you get back, you can enjoy your surroundings with the patio and BBQ grill. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and DVD player.

A fireplace, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan are featured at this 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom rental. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as a microwave, cookware, and a coffee grinder. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
