We had skunk smell off and on in the garage, and at times inside this home, and it never would go away.We called, and the woman we talked to said she was going to send out pest control, but no one ever came out.This issue needs to be remedied before renting again.There are of course good things to say about this property. VERY WELL stocked kitchen. Very large home, and everything worked fine. Lots of room for all of us.The home is pretty dated and could certainly use updating. Beds were ok. Washer/dryer worked fine.Probably would not stay there again.
Only complaint is the place can use a good cleaning and have more TV’s in the bedrooms.

Beautiful place!
The home was very welcoming and ready to accommodate our family of 6 and small dogs. We had everything we needed & a beautiful Mountain View!!! Certainly a place to return to and recommend for a quiet getaway and close enough to town.
Nine adults, and dog, on our ski trip. Plenty of room for all of us. Wifi worked very well and cell service was spotty (as listed). Got 6 inches of snow the night before we left and were a little concerned about getting the Corolla out of the neighborhood because the back roads aren't plowed. Very quiet and peaceful area. The kitchen was well stocked.
We rented this home for Thanksgiving. There were only 6 of us but we needed 4 of the bedrooms. Great location in a nice neighborhood, Wonderful yard for the pups. Lots of seating for conversation, games and TV watching. The unexpected foot of snow on our last full day was beautiful.
The house was very roomy for a family of 12 and well stocked. Nice fenced yard so no worries of the children running into the street.
Available washer & dryer very accommodating for our gloves & snowsuits after a day of sledding.
Each room was set up with additional heating so everyone was comfortable.
Definitely would book this location again.
All of the family thought the house a perfect location and excellent accommodations for us to enjoy the quiet and beauty of the mountain views as well as provide access by car to Pagosa Springs for river and hot springs entertainment or to go out to eat. The house has a warm, lived-in and loved feel, has absolutely everything needed for making meals for plenty, Ping-Pong tournaments, quiet places to read or enjoy the view, playing games together, watching TV, or sitting around conversation centers. We loved it!
We had a range from 8-71. Everyone had their own space in the bedrooms and there were plenty of showers and bathrooms. Ended up cooking most nights and the kitchen was well appointed. Having the garage to store skis and gear made it easy to dry boots. We also enjoyed sitting on the deck in the afternoons
Overall the space was clean, however there was dirt in the corners of the upstairs bathroom and some of the dishes that were in the cabinets were dirty and had to be rewashed. The downstairs shower in the smaller room with the ensuite bathroom wasn't pulling the full amount of pressure. Lastly, there may be a trick for the coffee machine, but it didn't work for us. We had to run to Walmart and grab one. Overall, we enjoyed the stay. There was enough room for everyone in our party of six, the house could have been cleaner, but the bedding was clean and anything we needed to clean, there was plenty of cleaning supplies to make that happen.
Overall the accommodations met our need. The issue we had was with the cleanliness of the location. Very dirty pertaining to dust, crumbs even popcorn under furniture. It was obvious that whomever is hired to clean does not do a good job. The windows looked as if a dog slobbered all over them, the walls had stains that looked as if someone spilt something all over them and wet sheets were left in the washer. We left the house cleaner than when we found it. We washed some walls, swept areas that were unsatisfactory to us. I do have to complain about being charged over 200 for cleaning fees and that’s how the house is found.
We had 5 kids, 5 adults and a dog.
Cons
The hot tub was a 15 minute DRIVE and the website shows it is $18 to get in to the rec center with limited hours. This property should not be listing a hot tub as a property amenity!
There were 3 propane tanks for the outside heater and they were all empty so we weren't able to use it.
We found extremely dirty pots and dishes upon arrival when trying to cook our first meal. We wound up washing everything before using it because we were grossed out.
Pros
Large bedrooms and lots of space
Well furnished house/kitchen
Local owner responded quickly-able to give recommendations for sledding areas nearby but just apologized about the hot tub and dirty dishes.
Nice, quiet neighborhood

Beautiful home and loved the area, just a few tiny quirks
Beautiful home and we loved the location! Great size home for a small groups of friends. Huge yard and awesome little patio deck which we would love to come back and enjoy when it wasn't freezing! The fire absolutely saved us as the main house heat seemed to be blowing cold air, so we just relied on base board heaters and the fire warmed up the main room very quickly. Pretty well stocked in the kitchen except for paper towels. The main things that kept us from five stars were 1. that two separate times we had smoke detectors start beeping like they were low. Luckily the second time was only about 30 mins before checkout, but it was still quite annoying and we couldn't figure out which one it was coming from. 2. The WiFi was not great and service in the area was very spotty, so this made it difficult to get done the little bit of work we needed to finish up. Other than that it was kind of nice to be more off the grid and we would definitely stay here again as long as all of the detectors have fresh batteries!

Plenty of room inside and out
Our dogs absolutely loved the large yard to run and play in. Plenty of space to accommodate a large family. Appreciated being able to park our vehicle in the garage.
The house was very well equipped for two families with teenagers. Nice, quiet neighborhood.

Great Vacation home
Extremely accommodating host, beautiful home located about 15 minutes from downtown Pagosa Springs and a quick 45 minute drive to Wolf Creek. Couldn’t believe how big the home felt for it’s square footage, more than enough space for our party of 8 adults, 4 children. Was worried about connectivity, but the WiFi worked great, cable TV as well. Washer/Dryer worked quickly. Large common area. You can tell the house is well maintained (everything works!). Plenty of housewares for cooking, a Keurig, microwave, dishwasher, inside/outside refrigerators. Felt like home away from home. Great place to stay.
Home was very clean; the living area was large enough for all to watch tv or play games. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, cookware and silverware.
We had lots of snow and it was beautiful
