Upon walking into this charming little cabin, you will encounter history. Once used as a grainery, this converted home contains a plethora of rustic barn wood, some of which still has writing from the original farmers who tallied their harvest on the walls. Outside the home is a porch, perfect for sitting and watching the beautiful sunrises and sunsets as you sip a hot cup of coffee or an ice cold beverage. In the yard, you will find a propane fire pit and a tree swing for kids. This charming little cabin sits on 35 acres of farmland. Here you will see chickens, horses, cows, and our 2 dogs. At certain times of the year, you can witness hay production in action. The property is mostly open field but has the luxury of shade from willow trees that have been standing for over a century. The nights out here are peaceful, and you'll find big skies that boast a beautiful stargazing experience. With chickens and cattle on site, there is the opportunity to enjoy farm fresh eggs (seasonally, from spring to fall) and USDA certified grass fed beef from our farm at an additional cost. There are plenty of places to visit and things to do nearby. This home is situated almost smack between Durango and Pagosa Springs.
