This property has so much potential. However, it is in disrepair, broken furniture, grass not mowed, dog hair on beds and futon. The chairs at the fire pit were melted. There was junk around the side of the cabin, and the 10 acres we were “free” to explore were fenced off directly behind the cabin with electric fence for horses. There also was not great pictures showing the access to the loft, which is ladder only. I definitely felt catfished by this listing. I messaged the host with my concerns when we arrived and only got back “Sorry it does not meet your standards”.

Clean and comfortable. Host came right over to help when we accidentally blew a fuse. Very close to Mesa Verde N.P. Sleeping in the loft was fun!

The upstairs area is a bit difficult to access even as a rather fit person. Easy to hit head on rafters and such. I don't think the layout was super well represented in the pics, it would be a big problem for many people. I might have missed it when reviewing the listing though. Nice property, I enjoyed my stay.

Little cabin at the edge of the field

Sweet little cabin at the edge of a field on a rural property. Basic and sweet. Lovely breeze flowing through, and if not a little fan keep you cool. I found the upper bunk two warm but the futon just fine. Bring all of your food and spices. I was happy to hold up in the cabin for much of this day and listen to the breeze flowing through. The real highlight was Mancos, which has really blossomed since I was through here last. New coffee shop and cafes, the burro festival and natural food store. Cortez is just a stone's throw and Durango as well. I will definitely be back.

Great, pet friendly cabin. The amenities were well stocked and we could have stayed much longer than the two days that we did

We enjoyed our stay overall, and the location was absolutely amazing. The cabin is situated in a quiet, serene setting that made it easy to relax and enjoy nature. The cabin had a cozy charm that we appreciated.However, there were a few issues that future guests should be aware of. While the listing states that the cabin can accommodate five people, that may depend on the ages and sizes of the guests. Our family of five, which includes older teenagers and a toddler, found the space quite cramped. The sleeping arrangement for the fifth person was a futon couch that was uncomfortable and noticeably stained. The refrigerator could not accommodate enough food for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 5 people for 2 days.We were also surprised to find that only two towels were provided for five guests. Additionally, the hot water supply was limited. After a long day of hiking, our family was unable to all shower comfortably because the water heater took a significant amount of time to reheat. Unless some of us were willing to take cold showers, we had to wait quite a while between showers.Despite these concerns, the peaceful location and beautiful surroundings were definite highlights of our stay.
