Nice Rental in Great Location
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wonderful location in charming Ouray. Overall we were happy and comfortable. Rental had a big, well stocked kitchen. There is a yard with a grill that was great. Only criticisms are the large sectional couch had an unpleasant odor as did the basement room. The entire house leans and the downstairs does not include a shower. Overall we were happy. The furry bean bags were fun.

We Love the Cottage House
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed twice at the Cottage House. Everything about it is perfect for our family. The only issue is that both years we have been come it has been unseasonably warm and the home has no AC, not even window units that would be a terrific upgrade. We were really uncomfortable in the house for that reason. We bought four fans to add to those they already had in there that were for the most part useless. Other than that, the location is perfect for a Ouray stay. The new visitor book and dollar clue is fun and we added our part to that! I don't know if we will return next year or find a place with AC, but it may be likely. Thank you for your hospitality and quick responses to our inquiries. The Key Family

Honest Review
This house served as a hub for my family which was spread amongst properties though we came together here to visit and share meals. First the good news: Good location if shopping is goal. Parking is easy. Management is responsive. Plenty of seating Kitchen is well appointed The upstairs beds were comfortable Basement stayed temperate Bad news: Bad location if privacy is key. Windows open to main street sidewalk with strangers peeking in. Far from luxurious. I would describe it as cheap lipstick on a crooked slanted very warm pig. First night was a mess. Oven didn’t work and no grill as promised. (Taken care of next day) Only one trash bin. Management took care of the overflow. The half bath is horribly outdated. Needs a lot of TLC to fix windows, landscaping, loose banisters/baseboards, peeling paint, etc. Really bad news: The house is warm. I am being polite - unbearably hot. There are underpowered fans that provide little relief. The windows on the street do not have screens and most are inoperable so there is no cross breeze. Closing the drapes & windows makes the house darker and does little to keep the morning sun/heat out. Besides that, I’m on vacation and resent trying to solve a problem that only real a/c can fix. We will not be back to this house. We have rented other spaces in Ouray that were much nicer and more private. I would probably be more forgiving if I had not paid top dollar for what was advertised as luxurious
