About this property
Contemporary Home | Forest Views, Secluded, Near Town
Nestled on over three heavily wooded acres on a quiet street above the San Juan River, this contemporary home is the perfect escape from the busy world. It feels secluded on property with an abundance of wildlife, yet is only ten minutes to downtown, the hot springs, Echo Canyon Reservoir, and multiple National Forest entrances. Wolf Creek Ski Resort is just 30 minutes away! Designed in Austin, TX and recently completed in 2022, this single story home with no steps features three bedrooms with king sized beds plus a study and two full baths. High ceilings and eight foot tall windows create ample natural light and make nature the primary focus. There are dramatic nightly sunsets and peak-a-boo views of downtown, the San Juan River and mountain range beyond.
An open floor plan and Chef's kitchen with modern cabinetry, a custom granite "waterfall" island counter, stainless commercial gas range and multiple pans, spices, and cooking accessories make entertaining a breeze. The master bedroom is separated from the guest rooms and has a view worthy of staying in bed all day. The master bath features a custom vanity with dual sinks, backlit mirror, a separate toilet room, and massive walk-in shower.
Other features of the home include: wifi, keyless entry, custom accent walls, original artwork, hand built artisan lighting, separate laundry and mudrooms, new furniture and accessories throughout, no carpeting, ceiling fans, covered balcony and patio, and a remote controlled gas fireplace.
This home is unique to the area and a rare find!

The home was immaculate and had everything we needed for a family of 4, kids are 8 and 5! Highly recommend! No A/C so plan accordingly the time of year but a perfect place to stay close to town and Wolf Creek Ski area!
Beautiful, modern, clean property that feels secluded but it close to everything pagosa has to offer! The whole process was easy, and we will book again in the figure!
We loved this house. Kitchen was well stocked. Design was very well done and the location was exactly what we were looking for. Good communication from property manager. Would certainly book again!

Great spot. Very peaceful and 5 minutes to town. Rental company folks were extremely helpful and quick to respond to inquiries and requests. Well we back.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house is close enough to town but far enough away to really relax and enjoy nature. The master bedroom, living and dining room have the most amazing forest views where we enjoyed the wild Turkey and deer that walked by. Waking up in the master bedroom was like waking up camping in the forest but without the tent! We will definitely be back again!
We loved the house and location. Gorgeous home with stunning windows and views. Check in and out process was quick and easy. Communication was exceptional. We booked and arrived within 24 hours. Everything was perfect.

This was one of the best rental properties I’ve ever stayed in. It was modern, extremely clean and very well equipped and accommodating. We say wildlife in the backyard every day and while it’s remote it’s still conveniently located to town. Lori the property manager was amazing from booking to checkout and beyond. We had a couple of minor issues but she responded quickly with resolution.
You will love this property!
What a beautiful home in the woods. They have everything you need. I was surprised they even have a pressure cooker. The house was clean. The communication with the manager and owner was on top. We had a problem with the water heater that was resolved immediately and we had hot water in no time. We really enjoyed our time in the property. Definitely recommend this place if you’re going to Pagosa Springs. I’ll definitely will look for this property again. Love the place.

Great modern house in a quiet neighborhood with great scenery, perfect for our family. House was clean and well stocked with anything you might need. Management company was extremely easy to work with and had great communication. House was not far from restaurants and downtown Pagosa, a little bit farther away from Wal-Mart. All and all a great place and we would definitely stay again!

Absolutely an amazing rental property. Very modern and accommodating. No expense was spared. Very well equipped with the best of the best. Lori the property manager was on top of our stay from beginning to end. We had ones small issue and she was fast to respond and resolve. You won’t be disappointed.
The property was very nice and overall our stay was good. One problem is that the neighborhood was affected by a water main issue that lasted for a day. However, it appears the issue happened once before as well. I understand the water supply is out of the property management's control and the manager did organize the ability for us to use another rental's bathroom. But I would have expected a credit or some refund offered for our trouble, especially given the cost of the rental.

Hello, most of the house was exceptional ,however, several cookware items had food still on them. We cleaned the ones we needed to use but I think there is still a skillet that has egg or something on it. While cooking our first meal I kept getting oil in the pot and thought it was coming from some part that might still be dirty until I realized the vent was dripping. The vent was so dirty grease was dripping on the stove and food in several spots. We cleaned all the vent filters and the vent as best we could and had no more issues. Quite a lot of grease/oil was inside the vent hood.

Staying at Pagosa Contemporary Cabin was an extraordinary experience because of the large windows throughout, its crispness and lack of clutter, and the aesthetics of the house design as well as the beautiful wall designs, light fixtures, and mirrors. You will feel this is your home for the period of time you live in this special place.

Reviewer Comments:
This was an outstanding place for our July 4th getaway. It served as base camp for our crew that allowed quick access to the highways to get to Pagosa Springs (5-7 mins away), Treasure Falls (20 mins or so) Big Meadow Reservoir and Williams Creek Reservoir (60 mins or so). Beds were super comfortable and there was plenty of room for our crew of 6 when we weren’t out enjoying Pagosa. A++ on the service and available amenities at the cabin. The property manger helped us save on rafting in Durango and had great options around Pagosa. The only miss at this place was the lack of ventilation or being able to move the air around the cabin. We were there the week of the 4th and it was warm for Colorado (mid 80s) the large, west facing windows provide stunning views to the valley to the west, but they also let in radiant heat (even with the shades down). We left the windows open and the fans on all day, but there was little breeze to help out. Now, this wasn’t a huge deal as we were out of the cabin most of the day, the letdown was in the evening when it took a while to cool down the bedrooms (master more than the others). Almost everything about this cabin was outstanding, I just think the owner missed an opportunity to make a clean sweep with this oversight.Would 100% recommend you putting this on your have-to-stay places in Pagosa Springs.

The Pagosa Contemporary Cabin was a perfect little mountain get away for a last minute trip to Pagosa Springs this year. The check-in and out process was easy, and the location of the cabin was just far enough outside of town that we avoided all the crazy traffic.

Reviewer Comments:
We recently stayed in this rental for 3 nights. The house was incredibly clean. The beds were comfortable to us (memory foam type mattresses). The kitchen was very well stocked (cooking oils, spices, cookware, etc.). The internet was a little slow but considering its satellite-based that's to be expected (it was adequate for streaming with a little buffering). The location was great, it's located in the back of the subdivision, so it was very quiet. The property is surrounded by tall pines which do somewhat block the views of the mountains, but the sunsets are incredible through the trees. The roads leading to the property are not paved, so they are a bit rough in places, nothing major if you take your time. The host was very responsive and quickly arranged for a minor maintenance issue to be addressed. Garage access is not allowed but there was plenty of parking in front. When staying here be sure to visit the wildlife sanctuary about 2 miles away, it was a fantastic experience! Overall, this is a beautiful property and super relaxing, we'll be back!
Fully stocked kitchen, clean new house, great location.

Beautiful home. The heater auto shutting off in middle of night was not a plus, an the smoke detector or whatever alarm is in master room went off every night the whole trip and seemed to be just when everyone went to bed and go all night. Other than those two things everything was great.
Our family had a great stay in a well appointed and clean place. The layout is well thought out with good size bedrooms and a nice kitchen. Did not disappoint!
