Stunning property, excellent stay!

R Bar D Ranch was stunning where we had an experience like no other! Beautiful scenery and quiet, serene surroundings. Saw deer just about everyday. The cabin was just as it was explained in the rental summary and then some. Enjoyed walking our dog around the property. Randal was very communicative and it was a pleasure getting to know. Enjoyed his company and learning about the history of his property. We highly recommend this property and can’t wait to visit again!

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!

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.

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.

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.
