Quiet location

This place is of off the beaten path. It is located an hour from Great Sand Dunes National Park. It was clean, quiet and well kept. It was a little warm when we arrived considering it doesnt have a/c. There were not many restaurants to choose from in the area. Overall I would recommend.

Great family trip

Beautiful home in the mountains. My kids loved the keyboard and the foosball table!! Perfect one hour trip to the sand dunes. If you have small kids be aware that there are about three stairs in the home without a railing (was fine for my kids aged 4+). Fun hammock as well! Thanks for sharing your home!!

Serenity

Because this home is well cared for and well stocked, our stay here was carefree. The area is known for its peacefulness and we felt it. The house is located about half way between the town (two grocery stores offering healthful foods) and a trailhead that begins several good hikes into the beautiful mountains that provide a beautiful view from the town and this house's deck specifically.

Stargazer

This property was located about 45 minutes from The Great Sand Dunes NP visitor center. The home was very private, clean and well provisioned. Our favorite spot was the deck off of the loft which had a wonderful view of the mountains as well as the sunrise. The wrap around deck also had a great view where you could watch the sun set. There were many extras that added to the uniqueness of the rental. We would highly recommend it.

Beautiful home, peaceful place

This place was excellent for our short stay near Great Sand Dune Nat. Park. Very peaceful setting, spacious home with good bedding and towels. We did not know it was “mosquito season” and the swarming made it hard to use the decks at most points in the day or night. The smoking coils we purchased after the first night helped a bit in mid-day, so that’s just something to prepare for. The grill was not cleaned and no propane but those things do happen and the host apologized. We wish we could have enjoyed the outside area more but for our short stay it was a good experience. Overall, we enjoyed this place as a simple and lovely base as we toured around the area for a couple days.

This property has a beautiful view of the mountains and is located in very peaceful area. We were able to have a very enjoyable weekend, visiting the Great Sand Dunes and Zapata Falls. When we returned to the property, our family was able to sit back, eat dinner and relax without being on top of each other. The owner was very reseptive and commincation between us was easy from the time I booked, all the way to the end. I would definitely recommend this property and I look forward to maybe coming back again.

Beautiful space & appropriately named stargazer cabin!! It did not disappoint. There was plenty of room for everyone. Comfortable spaces inside and outside. Small town nearby to get supplies. It is about a hour drive to the sand dunes. Just a great time with family and friends. The hostess was very responsive.
