We thoroughly enjoyed this property! 7 adults and 2 children plus two dogs. We had enough room for everyone. The house is beautiful, we had all the comforts of home. We stayed 5 nights in June 2026. The scenery is stunning, sitting on the patio every and using the fire pit every night was a big hit for us. Nikki the host was available if needed but we didn’t need a thing. Barney the resident cat was a hit with the kids and adults, she is living her best life, I am so jealous! We would definitely stay at this property again. We learned to watch out for the small cacti in the yard, just part of the flora and fauna! This property is a great vacation location, central to beautiful towns and lots to do.
Beautiful home and property! The property manager was super sweet and helpful. Barney the cat was loved by all. Plenty of room and very secluded. If you want to get away and relax, THIS is the place!
We enjoyed the charming country home. The facilities were clean and well maintained. We enjoyed the view solitude and exceptional view if Milky Way at night.
Wonderful place - private, homey, incredible view.
From privacy to layout to deer and turkey in the back yard ... hiking, sledding, proximity to town--it was perfect. Thank you! Wonderful spot. So great to have stayed for many 180 degree sunrise-sunsets over the San Juans.
Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The views from the house were amazing. We spent some great family time on the back porch around the fire and dinner outside. We enjoyed walking around the property and Barney the cat was very friendly. Watching the deer in the morning was a plus. We all had a fantastic time and the kids loved Pip (the goat) also.
Our Family has been coming to the Ouray area for the past 10 years renting different properties and we all think this pushes the number one spot. Clean and well stocked everything we needed was there. Great views and secluded. And yes don't forget about Barney the friendly Cat.
This was our 2nd time staying at thise property. We chose it for this trip because the first time was excellent.
The views are amazing, the outdoor space is amazing and the house has such charm.
Communication was great and we had another excellent week in Ridgway at this home.
This was our first experience with VRBO and it was wonderful. The house is perfect! Well-appointed and decorated, and spotless. The views are amazing. It’s an easy driving distance to both Ridgway and the Montrose airport; Telluride is less than an hour away. Enough property that people can take hiking trails just by walking out the front door. A special treat is Barney the cat, who we loved spending time with and is very affectionate. We had 6 adults staying there and we had plenty of space. The property manager was very responsive. Highly recommend!
We absolutely loved our stay in this charming little Chalet. I did not want to leave and wish we could live there. The views were spectacular, it was a cozy cabin with everything we needed. It was the perfect location and set up for our group. We were in the area visiting our daughter and grandchildren. This home made for the perfect location for our little family to have dinner and play table games together. We loved seeing wildlife each evening and the local cat was quite the companion.
Nikki was quick to respond with answers to any questions I had. We definitely hope to come back in the future and would highly recommend this chalet to anyone looking to visit the area. I fell in love with it.
Immaculate property, everything thing you need is on site. In all of our years of traveling, I don’t think we’ve ever had such a spectacular view in all direction. Simply breath taking. I almost didn’t see the need to leave at all, just a book and a glass of wine while enjoying the mountains.
We were able to bring our dogs which was greatly appreciated, they travel everywhere with us. The corgi was a little mad most of the time because the barn cat sat in my lap more than he did and both dogs enjoyed the cat walking with us every morning
The cabin and property were beautiful. Well maintained and clean. The barn cat on the property was a great hunter and we enjoyed having Barney the barn cat to greet us when we arrived at the property. Nikki was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed. The only thing that I would change about the cabin is the addition of air-conditioning... The cabin got very hot during the day and took a long time to cool off in the evening. The master bedroom window wouldn't open so it was very stuffy in that room. But we made due with the fans that were provided to stay cool during our stay. This would not deter us from staying again. We very much enjoyed our stay and didn't want to leave.

Liked: Communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Million $ view and $1 management and maintenance.
The location was perfect for our purposes and the view is spectacular. However………there was trash scattered on the ground when we arrived. The wood box was also stuffed with trash from a previous occupant. We picked up the trash and the manager(?) came and took the cans. But did not empty the wood box. In fact she wondered if we put it there. After being there for an hour. We finally removed it ourselves after the house began to smell. The fire pit pictured in the listing had been removed and the propane was empty so we had to grill at another property in our group. The kitchen is completely disorganized and if there are measuring cups, we couldn’t find them. There windows are either stuck or if they do open, there are are no screens. Makes it difficult to cool the house. And then there’s the cat. Nice enough unless you run out of food for it. All in all we had a wonderful week. But next time we’ll look more carefully at the property we choose. You may want to do the same if your considering this property.
House was well stocked with essentials and kitchen had more than enough cookery for feeding our crowd of 9! Each floor had a refrigerator! Killer views of the San Juan mountains and an amazing porch to sit out and enjoy the view. Definitely want to go again.
This is a fantastic cabin property. The outside space, deck and views are amazing! Everything we needed for our family get-together. Quiet and yet close enough to explore the area attractions. Only thing that would make it better is when they get the hot tub going!
