This is the perfect location for a home base. We were an hour from Mesa Verde, Hovenweep, Arches, Canyonlands-Needles District, and Natural Bridges. There was even more within a 90 minute drive. Our problem is we didn't book a longer vacation.
The view of the Abajo Mountains from the living room was awesome. There was a hawk nesting in one of the pines in the back yard. Our first afternoon at the house a group of 9 mule deer came into the yard, and after they left a second group of 11 wandered into the yard. We saw deer every day.
The house is well decorated, and comfortable. We slept well in the king bedroom, and the kitchen had everything we needed for the little cooking we did.
We really had a great time.
