About this property

Head Into The Vortex

My place is close to Moffat - which is equal distance between Alamosa and Salida. This room is in the heart of downtown Crestone. It is the launch pad to the fun things to do out here in the middle of no-where. IE: Great Sand Dunes, hot springs, Hooper pool, UFO park, alligator park, etc!, parks. You’ll love my place because of the views, the location, the people, the ambiance, and the outdoors space. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, and furry friends (pets).

187 West Silver Avenue, Crestone, CO 81131
Comfy queen bed, kitchenette w/ basic tableware, pots n’ pans. This room has a coffee maker with organic coffee & sugar. We also provide creamer and tea. TV with Roku (Netflix provided) Organic shampoo, conditioner and body wash & hair dryer. Quiet, yet in town.

Guests have access to their entire unit and patio.

There is no formal check-in. I give you the combination for the door to arrive on your own timing. Check-in 3:30 pm and check-out 10:30am. I am open to meeting all my guests needs/questions. However, unless they come to me - I give them total space, peace and quiet! Checking out is simple. All you do is leave! If you have any questions or problems - please call or text.

The views are awesome in town, majestic and unique with the ever changing and beautiful lighting. We have a unique town - full of spiritual retreats and outrageous hiking for all levels. It is fairly quiet - yet we do have fun for such a sleepy little town. There is also horse riding a few miles away.

Town is a few blocks big - walking is the best public transport! While you can walk to anything in downtown Crestone this is a very remote area without public transportation so you do need a vehicle.

Crestone is one of the most beautiful places to be for hiking and spiritual adventures! There are many hikes with 14,000 ft peaks and for all levels. Also, the peaceful majestic beauty attracts folks from all over the world that come to attend one of the many retreats at the dozen or so spiritual centers. A few miles away are horse riding/stables. 30-45 minutes away are Joyful Journey Hot Springs - famous for it's healing waters. Also there is the most magnificent Valley View Hot Springs - focused outdoors with incredibly beautiful vistas. Valley View is clothing optional. Both offer massages. See my list with local masseuses #'s.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. The apartment also includes a coffee maker.
