Guesthouse in Dolores

Private Setting - Good Wi-Fi, Full kitchen, W/D AC

AlRating, 5 stars4 months ago

The photos do NOT do justice to the beauty of this location. There are literally thousands of archeological sites in the area and the central location is a dream, especially in the winter when it can get cold at night. You know those real estate photos that make a house look larger? Well, Lynn's photos make the place look smaller. Plenty of space for a couple with a convenient kitchen. The biggest attraction is the radiant in-floor heating in the bathroom. So nice to stand after a shower and feel the warmth moving up from the feet. Got a sense of the outdoors between the wide open space around the cabin where a buck was chasing females for hours one evening. Definitely a beauty and at an great price. Can't beat that.

Mesa Verde Farm & Studio Straw Bale Artists Cabin

NatRating, 5 stars2 days ago

We stayed with Joanne and Bill in the spring of 2021 and knew we had to go back some day. We got married last week and stayed again for our honeymoon. The property is the most unique and artistic we've ever booked, and the hosts are an inspiring and welcoming couple, making a beautiful life in the middle of nowhere. See Mesa Verde. See Hovenweep. See Canyon of the Ancients. We can't recommend this stay enough.

A hip garage-style studio in a natural paradise!

JenniferRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We loved this funky garage spot on the most beautiful property. Serene, lovely and functional for what we needed. Wish the weather was better so we could open the garage door, but this is a cozy and beautiful place!

wonderful stay in downtown mancos! the pull out sofa was extremely comfortable. the other bedrooms were also very clean and comfortable. the space was comfortable and well suited to spend time with friends, including games and puzzles. we did not cook much in the kitchen so i can't confirm how well appointed it is with appliances. the location is ideal for enjoying the adorable and lively downtown area of Mancos.

Ranch in Cortez

Crooked Sky Ranch & Airbnb

GailRating, 5 stars4 days ago

Our stay could not have been better. The private entry suite is located next to Lisa and Billy’s house on their ranch, surrounded by mountains. The views are spectacular. They are incredibly responsive to every need and wonderful to chat with. It is about a 10 minute drive to Cortez which has great restaurants, and slightly further to Mesa Verde National Park, which is beautiful and historically interesting. We had a wonderful stay and would love to return!

Southwest Luxury Glamping -TDown Covered Wagon

SarahRating, 5 stars6 months ago

We loved our stay at the covered wagon! Such a unique experience and very clean with everything we needed to “glamp.” Very close to Mesa Verde and lovely creek. The highway was a bit loud and took away from the ambience and ability to sleep restfully but that is no fault of the property owners. We will never forget this special trip and appreciate your attention to each detail! Thank you so much!

An open and bright living area is visible from the second level, showcasing large windows that frame distant mountain views. The space features wooden beams and light-colored walls, with a comfortable seating arrangement and a decorative plant adding a touch of greenery.

Mountain Home in Dolores, Pet Friendly, Big Views!

BradRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

This was our favorite property we've ever had as an airbnb guest. The property's pictures maybe didn't even do it justice; when we were looking for a property with open space and good for our two doggos, it looked like the property was pretty flat, but open. It isn't really flat the 40 acres had hills and fun natural barriers out from the patio. The views were INCREDIBLE no matter where you were sitting. The property was extremely clean. Fun welcome basket for Easter and consistent friendly communication. You could hear a pin drop, it was so quiet. We just marveled at how "alone" we felt. Also, we were pleasantly surprised that the property is gated and fenced; it felt secluded and safe. We also saw a couple deer on the property one morning. Lastly, there's lots to do near this property. Mesa Verde is about 25 min away, and Dolores and Cortez had fun restaurants and we did a great hike north of Dolores (Boggy Draw). If you want a quiet vacay, you need to consider the property!

Cabin w/Pond on 50 Acres in Central Location

DeniseRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We loved our stay at the Ranch. The place had everything we needed and more. Plenty of space and room to spread out. It was clean, nicely decorated and liked just like the photos. We had a group of 12 adults there to meet for a mediation and sacred site week. It was perfect. There are great places close by too to hike, eat and relax. Beautiful views and outdoor space too. Thank you!!!!

The living room features a stone fireplace as a focal point, surrounded by a cozy arrangement of seating, including a dark brown sofa and two wingback chairs. Natural light enters through large windows, illuminating the wooden flooring and neutral walls.
