Ridgway is the northern entrance of the scenic San Juan Skyway. An All-American Road which serves as a crossroad for commerce, transportation, history and scenery. The San Juan Skyway is one of the most spectacular roadways in the U.S. as it winds through unmatched scenery — it is a photographer’s dream.
Nestled in the picturesque Uncompahgre Valley and surrounded by majestic snow-capped peaks of the Cimarron and San Juan Mountains, Ridgway is the “Gateway to the San Juans.” The movies True Grit and How the West was Won were both shot in the area.
There are many activities for families to enjoy while they are in the area:
During the summer, spring, and fall months there is historic/scenic driving, walking, hiking, biking, river rafting, kayaking, fishing, ATV and 4x4 jeep touring, hot balloon adventures, horseback riding, hot springs soaking, rock climbing, tennis (in Ridgway Town Park), and golfing (The Divide Ranch and Club on Log Hill). In addition, there is camping, boating, fishing, and walking in Ridgway State Park. Visit the Mesa Verde National Park cliff dwellings. Or take in the Black Canyon of the Gunnison with its spectacular canyon views and cool Gunnison River waters just east of Montrose.
During the winter months, there is snow skiing, snowmobiling, snow shoeing, ice climbing, sledding, and much more.
Additionally, Telluride offers festivals almost every weekend of the summer season and has world class skiing during the winter months. Telluride has four waterfalls, the highest concentration of 14,000-ft. peaks in North America, and the most high-altitude passes.
Colorful hiking includes fields of wildflowers that begin to bloom in June and peak in July. Experience yellows, reds, and burnt orange color in late September and early October. Or take in the snow and serenity of the Rockies during the winter.
**NO dogs or other animals, including service and therapy animals, are permitted on the property due to life-threatening animal dander allergies of the host.
**There is a RING camera located on the front porch. It is used to monitor the exterior of our home.

Summary: The home is well appointed and beautiful. It’s a short trip to everything and the most beautiful drive into Telluride. Liz had fantastic communication and we could have not been more pleased. The snow on the property felt like a greeting card photo. We hope to come back to enjoy some summer festivals as well. Highly recommend!

Summary: Located just minutes away from Last Dollar Road and many other places I love to shoot photography, I felt like I had come home. Our hosts had thought of every little detail to make our stay a perfect one: a fully equipped kitchen, a wonderfully furnished house, with opulent baths and a hot tub on the Patio... From the front patio we became acquainted with our resident hummingbird and two deer that joined us every morning for coffee.The hummingbird, who we named Bob,met us almost every single time we came out. This home is nestled between RIdgeway and Telluride in near Placerville. An area known to me since I was a child as Heaven. As I say, it was like coming home. I look forward to staying there again.

Summary: We spent 6 nights at Sky Mountain Ranch and could have stayed 2 more weeks! It is such a gorgeous home with everything you could want. We cooked beautiful dinners, enjoyed coffee on the deck, sat in the hot tub in the evenings and took in all the beautiful scenery. Liz was a fantastic host! Hope to stay here again!

Summary: We loved our three night stay at this lovely mountain home. Beautiful views just a walk away and we had numerous deer in the front yard one morning. The front deck area was great for morning coffee and an evening glass of wine. We were also able to easily get to Telluride and Ouray for day trips. Highly recommend!

Summary: We loved this house. Everything was as advertised. The home is beautiful secluded, and the location was perfect. We made day trips to Ouray, Ridgway, Telluride and to Mesa Verde. This home is in a perfect location to explore the area. We hiked the Blue lakes trail, which was about a 45 minute drive. It was beautiful. This is a great place to stay.

Summary: We had a wonderful time. The house was exactly like the pictures. Everything you would need was supplied. Ridgway market was a full grocery store and about 20 minutes from the house with a beautiful scenic drive. Owners were easy to work with and went well above and beyond to accommodate our short notice. Can’t wait to go back!!
