| The cabin made my hunting vacation very enjoyable for myself and my family. Besides spending my days in the national forest hiking and viewing wildlife, just a few miles from the cabin, we also spent time relaxing and admiring the views from the cabin. What a great location to have a cabin. I look forward to staying there again! |

| We LOVED our stay at this cabin! It was everything that we had wished for in a "Colorado getaway". The very first morning I strolled out back to take a photo of the Aspen grove, I surprised 9 deer eating their breakfast! The cabin looks out onto a fabulous canyon, and we almost couldn't tear ourselves away from the view to go exploring. Once we did though, we fell more and more in love with the area, which boasts Silver Jack Reservoir, mountain streams, hiking trails, Owl Creek Pass, and the valley where they filmed "True Grit!" At night from the deck the stars are so close that I got my first good look at the Milky Way. The owners have done everything possible to ensure that you won't lack for any amenity, and there's even an Aspen sapling branch strung with little white lights in the living area! This would be the perfect place for a couple or small family looking to get away and back to nature. We definitely plan to return!! |

We spent our family summer vacation here in August and it was fantastic! Nice and quiet with spectacular views of the San Juan Mountains off of the deck or from the living room. It was great to just sit and read and have a drink and look at the mountains. It was also a ton of fun to head down the road a couple of miles to kayak and fish at Silverjack Reservoir (limited out in about two hours). There are also some really pretty hikes in the area.
It is also a fairly easy drive through the mountains to get to the Ridgeway/Ouray area. Made a day of a drive to the hot springs pool in Ouray, dinner at the True Grit café in Ridgeway and then back to the cabin for a camp fire and smores.
And then just down the road by Montrose is the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. A beautiful and fairly unknown National Park.
This is a perfectly located, affordable retreat that I highly recommend. It is far enough away from the large touristy areas to create the privacy we desired and also close enough to those areas to allow easily access to them.
