Hidden Gem with Amazing Views!

We were so excited to find this property - the R Bar D Ranch cabin is wonderful- spacious, well equipped & comfortable with a beautiful back deck to take in the stunning view of the San Juan mountains and Mt. Sneffels. The deer are regular visitors & we enjoyed seeing them daily. Randal is the most welcoming and attentive host! It was a perfect base camp for us to play golf, hike, and visit Ridgway, Ouray and Telluride. I can’t wait to return. Many thanks to our hosts!

Handsome guest house, stunning scenery!

This guest house, surrounded by some of Colorado’s best scenery, was itself beautiful, spacious, well appointed, and extremely comfortable. The host, Randal, has superbly thought out the needs of guests, and is quickly responsive to any questions. And if you would like suggestions on what to see or do in this gorgeous area, he has impeccable recommendations that will generate fond memories.

Awesome basecamp in Ridgway

If you're looking for a quiet place to explore the San Juans, this is an incredible option. Perfectly appointed cabin on a ranch with tons of space. About a 10-minute drive down to Ridgway. The host, Randal, is super welcoming and available to answer any questions. Really a great place to stay in SW Colorado.

Amazing Summer Retreat

Wonderful property that takes you back in time but with modern amenities and great cell/internet service. Majestic views of multiple 14ers off the deck. If you are looking for a clean, quiet, and peaceful place with cool clean air, this is the place for you. Randal is a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed. We look forward to coming back soon!

A very relaxing cabin

We had such a great stay, having cocktails while gazing at the mountains, barbecuing on cools nights, watching the weather roll in on rainy days, and exploring the many hiking trails in the area. Randal and Debbie were exemplary hosts which made the stay that much more special.

What a wonderful place. The cabin was charming. The view of the San Juan mountains and the sunsets were spectacular. It was such a restful place and so quiet. We needed a recharge and it fit the bill. Randal was so delightful - great communicator, very knowledgeable about the area, and such a nice person. We enjoyed our conversations with him.

Gorgeous Property and Wonderful Host

We highly recommend this beautiful property. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and will likely be back. The house is a great Colorado mountain retreat and the location could not be better. The views from the property are simply stunning; Ouray, Telluride and Silverton are a short ride away so the scenery is just gorgeous. The host, Randal, was there to greet us and show us how everything worked, he was always available for questions. We cannot thank him enough for his hospitality. We have been to the area many times, but this was definitely our best stay.

Wonderful, relaxing, quiet and beautiful!

We loved everything about this place. The beautiful setting, seeing the stars we can’t see in the city, the nicely decorated cabin which is very well maintained and comfortable. The views around the cabin were gorgeous - mountains in the distance and open fields. There was plenty of space for us - a real treat. The location was perfect for going to Ouray, Telluride, Montrose, and of course into Ridgway. The bedroom was spacious and the bed was very comfortable - I appreciated having two pillow choices, one thicker, one thinner. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need for cooking, coffee, etc. Comfortable seating around the table, which is where we spent most of our time. The host, Randal, was very thoughtful and helpful for anything we needed and had great advice and ideas for places to go see - really appreciated his ideas! We will definitely plan to stay here again someday.

A perfect place to relax in the San Juan Mountains

This rental was perfect for our family getaway! The house was immaculate and had everything that we needed to feel right at home. The property surrounding the house is beautiful. We enjoyed watching the deer meander by each morning and evening. The owners were incredibly nice and were more than willing to help us find whatever we needed in the area. We've stayed at a lot of VRBO properties, but this one is the best so far!

Western Slope Paradise

Nestled in the Log Hill community, lies the picturesque R-Bar-D Ranch, with breathtaking views of Mt. Sneffels and the San Juan Mountain range. The guest cabin encompasses the true feeling of luxury mountain living with exceptional, warm hospitality. Waking up to the stunning mountain range, the smell of pine and deer meandering nearby creates the ultimate log cabin experience in the heart of Colorado. We are looking forward to our next stay within the following months.

Beautiful Ridgway Cabin

My mom and I made a somewhat impromptu trip to Ridgway to visit some sights in the area. It was a short trip but I was lucky enough to land on this gem of a property. Randal is a wonderful host and made sure everything was just right in our place and that we had plenty of information regarding local restaurants, places to visit, and even made sure we knew we could roam the expansive property as much as we wanted. We had a wonderful stay and couldn't have wished for a better place to land after a long drive from Denver and exploring the area during our stay. I highly recommend!

Great location and cool house.

My friend and I spent 10 days here and really enjoyed it. We had towed a trailer with a side by side on it and there was ample parking, would have even been enough for a much larger trailer. Randall was great to work with as we changed our check in date a couple of times. The house is warm and cozy and I especially enjoyed the balcony off the master bedroom. Kitchen was well stocked and there is a grill if needed. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you Randall!!
