Experience the spectacular Stagecoach Lodge! The lodge is an amazing log home located on 35 acres. It is a wonderful retreat for those who enjoy nature, wildlife, and mountain peak views.

The great room features floor to ceiling vaulted windows framing the Cimarron mountain range with log beams, and multi-level windows highlighting the entire San Juan range. The home features radiant floor heat and abundant natural light throughout. Air conditioning installed on the main floor including the main floor master suite keeps the home cool during the summer months.
The property fee is fully refundable if the lodge is not left excessively dirty and all towels are cleaned and in the dryer at check out.

About the area: The town of Ouray is known as the "Switzerland of America," and is nestled in a small valley with 360-degree views of 12,000-14,000 mountains. Ridgway, nicknamed the "Gateway to the San Juan’s," is well-known as the place where the John Wayne movie "True Grit" was filmed. Many of the movie set's buildings are still used today by local businesses. These two historic towns offer a variety of activities: restaurants, shops, museums, galleries, hot springs pools, hiking, fishing and boating. The reservoir is right in Ridgway and offers water fun under mountain peaks. Day trips to Silverton, Telluride and Durango are fun as well.
Ouray is also often called "The Jeeping Capital of the World" because of its many trails through the high country (rated easy to rugged). We recommend renting a jeep or off-road vehicle from either Ouray or Silverton and spending the day(s) exploring.
Golf is available at beautiful Divide Ranch Golf Club located on Log Hill Mesa, a short drive from the property. Telluride and Montrose also have golf courses.
Ouray and Ridgway both offer local markets, and you can find larger stores like City Market, Safeway, Target and Walmart in Montrose, about a 20 minute drive from the lodge.
