This was a cute place with all the amenities you could want. View was spectacular! Especially of the snow covered mountains. We had an issue with the heat but Sarah took care of it immediately. Would definitely stay here again. An added bonus would be a hot tub!
Clean nice space. Don't let the outside fool you, it was a great space in the perfect part of town about 1.5 blocks off Main Street.

Quiet and picturesque
It was our first visit to Ouray and this cabin was just what we were looking for. It was very clean and comfortable with great proximity to the town attractions. The 360 views from the cabin were wonderful.

We enjoyed our stay in Downtown Ouray. The location of the property was perfect walking distance to walk to town,hiking trails and the hot springs. Our favorite feature was setting up our hiking chairs and table by the river, so serene and peaceful after a long day on the trails. My wife and I make wonderful memories surrounded by the mountains of this picturesque town!

Absolutely perfect!
Our stay at this property was wonderful. It was comfortable, well-stocked, clean, and the location was convenient to shopping, restaurants, and walking trails. Would stay again without hesitation!
We enjoyed staying at this location. We were able to walk to many different restaurants, the park, Hot Springs, and even box Canyon. The place itself was very clean and had everything that we needed to make it a comfortable stay board games like monopoly that we haven’t played in a long time that the whole family enjoyed.

We spent a few days in Ouray for our 50th wedding anniversary. This place was perfect for our needs. It was clean, cozy, and quiet! We had everything we needed, beds were very comfortable, and it was close to Main Street….we loved sitting outside listening to the river. We would love to come back and stay!

Location was fantastic, we walked to town. I thought maybe it was a tad pricey for one bed and one pull out. But the heating was great, kitchen was just what we needed. Internet speed was great.

The apartment was a good size and well-stocked. It was just enough room for two adults. The location was great- within walking distance to the Main Street of town! Our only complaint was that the mattress was very firm and not very comfortable. Overall, a nice place and would recommend to others.
We have stayed in many vacation rentals over the years, and I have to say that this is definitely in my top 2. This simple but well stocked home was clean, comfortable, and perfect for my wife and I, along with our beagle. Easy walk to shops and restaurants, surrounded by mountains, and even had a visit from mule deer two mornings in a row in the front yard. Would definitely visit again!

From the owner: " Paul, thank you for the review! We are so glad you and your wife enjoyed your stay at River Oak!
This little cabin was the perfect stay for us and our pup! The place is exactly how it is pictured, with updated furniture, bathroom, and appliances. The bed and bedroom were comfortable and the exact place you'd want to retire to after a long day of hiking. The living area was spacious and their was plenty of areas for storage and extra supplies (laundry detergent, towels, blankets, etc) to make this a home away from home for us. If that wasn't enough the location of this property was fantastic! Just a 3 minute walk to the main street of shops and restaurants but set far enough away to avoid any crowds. We sat outside every night listening to the river (right outside your door!) and watching the sun set against the mountains. Will definitely be booking here again!
