Summary: Easy check in, nice hosts, good location with a few great hikes and the river close. We couldn’t get the WiFi to work but wasn’t a big deal for us as we just went across the street to laundry mat when we needed it. Will definitely rent again when back in area.

Summary: We loved the 2 room cabin.The location allowed access to Salida and Cotopaxi along with longer trips to Leadville and Canon city/Royal Gorge.We used the full kitchen daily and enjoyed the intermittent stream in the mornings. We saw a doe and 2 fawns in the yard. Clean and felt like new construction.Warm evenings which require fans to cool off. Crisp mornings we fantastic. Started off with coffee and away for local adventures. We enjoyed the fire ring for marshmallows and brats and hot dogs before a fire ban hit. We would love to come back. Zero negative to say about the hosts or property. Steve pointed us up the mountain for a day trip we enjoyed. We never would have known. Thank you for the suggestions and great lodging.

Summary: Clean, comfortable and quiet! From the complete kitchen to the full-sized bathroom counter, everything was great. It was easy to find, and the hosts are right next door, so we got hiking recommendations and hosts were available by phone after we opened up the email from them!
