Another Spectacular Stay
We keep returning to this beautiful home situated in the most incredible spot. The views are second to none, and the house is an architectural masterpiece that is absolutely immaculate. Nancy, the host, is a generous, kind person, and has stocked every drawer, closet, and cabinet with everything anyone would use to cook well and be comfortable. Thank you for sharing your amazing home!

Can't say enough good things about Enchanted Retreat
Breath-taking! The home, the furnishings, the acreage, the owners, all combined created such a magical place. Everywhere we turned we were amazed at how well the home was constructed, maintained and designed, inside and out. The meadows were especially fun to navigate. We just don't have the perfect words to describe our PERFECT vacation. Mancos artists are fabulous too. Thank you so much for our stay in the Enchanted Retreat. We will be back!

Wonderful place to stay!
We wanted to get away for a quiet week and it was exactly what was needed. A beautiful, comfortable, well-kept home on a very large piece of land far away from the noise and commotion of every day life. Wonderful scenery from every side; trails to hike, and stars to watch ... wildlife, it has it all. Mostly blessed peace! Thank you!

Amazingly tranquil location. Lots of natural beauty and wildlife. Close to so many things to do. The night sky on clear nights is amazing. We saw things we have never seen before. We now know for sure we are not alone.

Wonderful!
We stayed at Enchanted Retreat for 5 nights and loved it! My favorite part was sitting on the deck, admiring the views and watching birds come to the feeder. The property had everything we needed. I would happily stay there again!

Incomparable Enchanted Retreat
This wonderful property is the perfect spot to explore southwestern Colorado or just get away from it all. The home is immaculate, beautifully landscaped and perfect for a couple. The living areas and bedroom are bright, well-furnished, and comfortable. The location is magnificent with views of snow-capped mountains on one side and Mesa Verde on the other. If you decide to prepare meals, there is a well-equipped kitchen and an inviting area for dining. The hosts have thoughtfully placed bird feeders outside the dining area window providing endless entertainment for individuals who enjoy watching visitors to the feeders. The outside deck is a great place to relax, but we did need to use insect repellent because of gnats. Tom and Nancy, the hosts, were so gracious, providing us with welcome gifts and orienting us to the property. There was a bit of confusion upon arrival because we had not responded to an email sent by the hosts the day before check-in. We did not know we would be receiving such an email or that it would contain vital information about accessing the property. As things turned out, the day before check-in we were in a "dark" part of Colorado and were unable to access our email. We found cell service in northern New Mexico and southwestern Colorado was "spotty" at times (but not at Enchanted Retreat). Our check-in flub, however, was a minor issue and did not mar our enjoyment of this unique property.
