This was a nice and cozy cabin right on the edge of Gunnison. There was plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed playing some pool and hanging out in the living room.

Family Time
We had a wonderful time with family. We enjoyed our visit with our child at Western Colorado University. The weather was beautiful. Our evenings were spent around the fire pit enjoying the stars and great family stories. The home felt like our home for a short period of time. Thank you!!

Great place!!
The house is huge with lots of space to hang out. Fire pit was nice in the evenings. Lots of parking for a trailer and pickups if needed. The only negative feedback if you even call it that would be we got locked in the bathroom because the door knob was broke. There weren't enough trash bags in the kitchen to get us past the 2nd day. It may also be good to note in the ad that there is no air conditioning in the house. We survived because the nights were nice out. Overall awesome place to stay. We.loved it! Thank you.

Rustic and relaxing retreat
This was a clean and spacious home for our annual girls trip. Plenty of room for all 9 adults. Great rustic feel. Good location in town. Short walk around the corner to the Gunnison river. Thirty minute commute to Crested Butte, close to Blue Mesa. Our only suggestion is back deck had a few wood boards needing replacement, which was fine for our adult group, but could be a tripping hazard for older adults or kiddos.
Overall great experience at this home. We'd stay again!

Warm, Cozy & Clean - Perfect for Families
My family has stayed at many VRBO and other vacation properties from Oregon to Michigan, Montana to Texas and Arizona. This beautiful property is one of our top five favorites and the only one we have stayed at twice.
The layout is perfect for family gatherings with space to spread out, play games, watch TV, play pool or sit on the back patio with a warm fire.
Comfortable beds and luxurious toiletries in the bathes and showers were a nice upgrade from our previous stay.
I highly recommend this jewel in the Colorado mountains.

Very nice accomodation
Our family of 10 was here in November for elk hunting season. The house was very well supplied with linens and towels and the kitchen was also very well supplied with everything we needed. It is located in a nice neighborhood and close to town which has a Walmart and a couple of grocery stores for last minute supplies. We would stay here again.

SURPRISE!
If you like surprises this place is for you! Your first surprise will be the email you receive 2 days before your check-in informing you of the long term tenant that lives on property above the garage. This will not only limit your parking, but access to the driveway as well. Our second surprise was being greeted by said tenant moments after our arrival informing us that we were parked incorrectly. We had not yet removed our bags from our vehicle. Off to a great start! We were greeted with our next surprise when we tried to take showers that night as we learned that the water heater had been shut off. Not turned down, but set to off. Finally, we were surprised to find out that the outdoor security cameras, so casually mentioned in the listing, are pointed at the outdoor deck and fire pit area and are absolutely active as they will tun on to watch your every move. Not that we are hiding anything, but I do like my privacy. The house itself is nice and roomy, and yes a well stocked kitchen. The toilet paper is abysmal which probably wouldn't have bothered me except for the other issues we faced. At $400+ a night, there are better options.
