Dan and Norma were helpful and attentive while still respecting my privacy. They are good people! This pet-friendly cabin setting is so quiet and peaceful which helped me sleep soundly. My dog loved exploring the property and visiting Dan and Norma's dog. My wife and I (and oyr little dog Kasey) would love to stay here again in the future. Thank you Dan and Norma.

Great location!

Cabin is located on a working farm with acres of crops such as barley and alfalfa. Hosts/owners are nearby and very accommodating. Cabin is clean and comfortable. Host insures you have all your basic needs. Lots of areas nearby to explore and enjoy. Relaxing in the very quiet and beautiful setting is stellar! If you’re in the area be sure to make it your stay.

Nice and relaxing

Came to visit family with our dogs in tow. Loved having a place close to them that allowed pets. Also loved waking up and taking them on a walk down the road and letting them run off leash, since the road has no other houses on it past the site.

Home Away from Home

Staying at Norma and Dan's VRBO was amazing. They created a home away from home for us. We are so comfortable. They were right next door and very responsive and friendly. We will plan on staying there on our next trip to the area. Anyone who stays here will be pleased!

Dan and Norma’s farm cabin was the perfect place for our weekend getaway! They were so kind and their place had everything you needed! The views from the balcony are amazing and I highly recommend watching sunset from there! 10/10 recommend! We also visited Mesa Verde National Park which was incredible.

Norma and Dan were gracious hosts. Their impeccably maintained cabin was our favorite place to stay during our 2 week tour of CO. It was a little taste of home away from home. We hope to return.

The cabin/cottage was cozy clean with everything you needed. (Including toothpaste/brushes shampoo etc) Location was pretty close to perfect for our plans. The host were friendly, greeted us when we were both there but otherwise left us be. Very peaceful with a couple beautiful sunsets. Bonus was the two dogs we all loved. Highly recommend!

Just perfect…..

Just returned home from our 2 week vacation and have to say this little cabin was the highlight of our trip! Dan and Norma were so accommodating and welcomed us with open arms. I grew up in Cortez and they reminded me of what a friendly little community it truly is. If you ever get to visit the Cortez/Yellow Jacket area, be sure to stay here. It is just perfect in every way.

Wonderful welcoming stay

Dan and Norma personalized our stay. We enjoyed chatting with them. The cabin is a full equipped home, and very thoughtfully laid out, with small tables and coasters always within reach. The location is perfect for day trips. I definitely will stay here again if we pass through again. Or, we could make the effort to do so!

About the host

Hosted by Dan Duncan, property owner

Host profile image
Dan grew up 7 miles northwest of current home. He is a retired pilot, who flew so he could farm and ranch. Norma retired (5/2016) after 31 years of teaching and now I quilt and try to keep up. We have lived here 23 years, lived in Montana for 12 years and Las Vegas for 11 years.

Why they chose this property

This home was originally built because our son was an officer in the Marine Corps and it was his home when he came home for extended times. He now comes back a few times a year and our extended family and friends come to stay and enjoy the privacy.

We are centrally located to many of the main attractions in Southwest Colorado. The land we are located on have a view of the Sleeping Ute Mountain, the La Plata range, Blue Mountains and Lizzard Head.

What makes this property unique

You will love the view, solitude, and the stars at night.
