No fireworks to scare our dog, either! Walking the dog we saw elk and javelinas - so fun! ##### Heidi M. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tom M. 8 Sept 2024 #### Great home and location The listing is accurate. The home was very clean, and it has one of the best equipped and stocked kitchens that we have experienced in over 10 years of enjoying vacation rentals. The location was just what we were looking for - far enough from town to enjoy the mesa Verde and pines and close enough to get what we needed for supplies without a hassle. Beds were comfortable. Neighborhood was quiet. Kids beds worked well for us, and there were plenty of kid-oriented toys and games. 10am checkout was a little early for us due to some activities we had planned. Although we requested 11am, the manager did not allow it. ##### Tom M.
