About this property
Rustic guest cabin set in the high country between Telluride and Ridgway
Situated amongst aspens and pines, and just 40 minutes from Telluride's festivals, The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is fully equipped for those who appreciate simplicity in a rustic setting. Complete with bedroom, kitchenette and bath, this cozy space is kept warm by wood stove and cool by the mountain breeze.
The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is centrally located between Telluride, Ridgway and Ouray on a 10 acre parcel which also houses the main Family Cabin. The Family Cabin is occupied by the owners/caretakers and is situated across the driveway from The BunkHouse. Just west of the Dallas Divide Summit, the property is easily accessed from CO Hwy 62.
The property is quiet and secluded near the end of the road, amongst a mixture of 5 to 40 acre parcels making up the surrounding "neighborhood." There are walking trails around the acreage and along the gravel roads in the subdivision. Property is forested with Ponderosa Pine, Douglas Fir, Gambrel Oak, and Aspen, as well as many wildflowers. Mountain views are of Hayden Peak, North Pole Peak, and Mount Mary. Wildlife are seen on the property and in the neighborhood. The property has horse shoe pits, corn hole boards, and a sandbox and swing set for children. It is a dog-friendly place. The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is a NO SMOKING property, inside and outside.

The cabin was great! Beautiful drive in, and the dogs loved romping in the outdoors. Plus, the hosts were incredibly gracious and welcoming. They even stayed up with the lights on when we were getting in late our first night!
The absolute best and most beautiful place to stay. It was clean, cozy and perfect for a mountain retreat weekend. The hosts are so kind and friendly that I will book here for every trip in Telluride. I cannot recommend this place enough!!
The Bunkhouse is a hidden gem that I can’t recommend enough. It’s scenic, serene, and the perfect place to stay in between Telluride and Ouray. The surrounding neighborhood is beautiful with the fall foliage, and right off the Last Dollar Road, which has some of the best fall colors. I loved my stay at this cozy cabin, and plan on coming back!
What a perfect place to stay in the San Juans! It is situated between Ridgway and Telluride, with Ouray nearby as well, so mountain exploration possibilities are endless. The location of the bunkhouse is beautiful and although it's in the same driveway as the main house, it still maintains its privacy, especially with the deck. Also, the kindness of the folks living in the main house is unparalleled, so we could not recommend this stay enough!
The property is beautiful. The location is remote which is nice but it’s a little farther from Telluride than we thought. Our hosts are very nice the remembrance of our stay was a lovely touch.
We had an excellent stay! Incredible to enjoy the night sky full of stars from the porch. Everything was comfortable and the host’s hospitality was impeccable. Thank you!
Beautifuly decorated, and comfortable bungalow! Striking views of surrounding mountains and countryside. Thank you to the Williams for being gracious, accommodating hosts!
The deck was a nice place to have coffee in the morning or watch the sunset in the evening. The Bunkhouse is in a quiet location but an easy drive to Telluride and area hiking. The hosts were the best!
This property was amazing! It was ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!! I cannot wait to go back! Plus the hosts were outstanding! This trip was truly magical! HIGHLY recommend!!!
UNDERRATED! The pictures don't do it justice at all. The view was spectacular. We met the host and she was very sweet, giving us more firewood for the cold, cozy nights.
We enjoyed our visit so much! Marianne was so hospitable from beginning to end, even leaving us a personalized welcome note. She was extremely helpful in helping us decide how to plan our time there because she is very well-informed about the area. The cabin is adorable and homey, with great little touches in the decorating and theme matching the area. It was a pleasure and I will enjoy going back!
Hosts are friendly and very helpful! Let us know of all the different ways we could get around since a road near by was going to be closed for maintenance. We appreciated all of their help! Great location! Peaceful area! Comfy cabin with a wood stove. We always enjoy are stay there. Even saw a small herd of elk walk by the back deck while eating dinner!
Absolutely amazing place and hosts! They made everything super easy and relaxing. The cabin was clean and cozy, and we loved the area. Our hosts provided lots of amenities and even a little welcome gift for us AND our pups. Located near Ouray, Telluride and Silverton - we got a chance to explore and relax all in one trip. Thank you oh souch for your kindness and care. - The Zelinas
We had a wonderful stay! The hosts made us feel right at home with chocolates and a hand written note, and even a treat for the dog! The drive was a little bumpy, but we absolutely loved the scenery on the drive in. Would definitely stay again!
