Great location to enjoy Crestone
The cabin is small and comfortable in a great area. It IS on the minimalist side. There is no TV and no couch in the main living area. However the property manager was incredibly nice and brought us some things we requested right away. The surrounding area is beautiful, quiet, and peaceful. Very little traffic. The cabin is a 10-minute drive into town and there are lots of hiking trails near town. If you're looking for a quiet getaway to recharge this place is perfect,
