Ouray Ice Festival Weekend

We had a great weekend staying at this property & attended the Ouray Ice Festival. Plenty of room to store our climbing gear & ample kitchen space for cooking group meals. We would definitely stay again!

Great place & so convenient!

We had a great time in Ridgway - and the house was great. The house itself had everything we needed (and more) & was so close to restaurants and shops. The house binder was really helpful in selecting places to eat - Eatery 66 was a clear winner! The property manager was helpful with our questions & getting into the house was a snap. It was perfect for our fall getaway - would definitely come back and stay again. Thanks!

Perfect Home Base

This was our second time staying a week at the Blue Cottage (2021), as we like to call it, and it's just as we remembered. One story, well-equipped--every detail is taken care of. It's a short 5 minute walk into Ridgway and its great restaurants, grocery store and coffee place, not to mention the greenway to Ridgway State Park. We love the fact that Ridgway is non-touristy and yet in close proximity to everything in the San Juan Mountains! We even drove to Montrose and Black Canyon National Park for a day. Truly a comfy stay and a magical area to visit in the fall.

A home away from home in Central Ridgway- close to Telluride and Ouray.

This was one of the best places we have ever rented. Location was a perfect 1/2 mile or less to the town square and several restaurants and market and a route that leads to a river walk. The layout was great, beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked and the fenced backyard was so perfect. Good wifi, great communication, cute touches throughout. What more could you ask for?

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Turner

My family has been coming to Ridgway for over 40 years! We love to get-away from our cities to be in the sunlight, air and incredible mountains of the area! Sometimes we come for family time, sometimes time with friends. We wish we could be there more often...but now we can share it.

Why they chose this property

Ridgway is a perfect location : private enough to keep it a little bit secret, but close to Telluride, Ouray, Durango, Montrose and the majestic San Juan Mountains. There is hiking, biking and skiing for all levels. There are public hotsprings for families and private springs for couples. Telluride offers a film festival, music festivals and some of the best skiing in the world! My grandfather found the house in the 1960's and we've loved the area ever since!
