About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Knotty & Nice: Spectacular Lakefront Home with Fireplace, Games, Paddleboards, Minutes to Uptown!

The duplex home is in a quiet setting. However, you could have neighbors next door, staying on the opposite side. Each side of the duplex and the deck is sectioned off for your privacy. The home sits down below the main road with trees on the front side and gorgeous Lake Hatcher on the other. Geese, deer, and a large variety of wildlife will stroll through the property, and you will have immediate visual access to all of it! The interior may surprise you, as it hosts an extraordinarily different style of home. Beautifully aged wood structurally represents the design and format of this home. This cozy corner of the lake will provide a casual and comforting space with a bit of wild west and Rocky Mountain majesty for all.  The 2-story layout provides ample natural lighting and views in every direction, including the mountains, forestry, and nearby lake. You will be secluded, but the drive to uptown amenities will be nothing short of a quick, scenic 6-7 minute drive; downtown being another 5-6 minutes.  Enjoy all of your favorite Football teams and sports games on TV included with your rental! You won’t regret the memories and scenic opportunities this special home has to offer!

Be sure to check out "The Hot Toddy" listing if you have a bigger group.  This is a duplex complex with two identical sides that you can book together for larger groups and be in the same area!

**SNOW CONDITIONS may arise during your travel days or your vacation stay. Main roads are maintained throughout the day; however, many side roads receive less attention, and every driveway has a different terrain. For your safety, 4 Wheel Drive/All Wheel Drive or two-wheel drive with accessible chains or cables is recommended for Colorado travel from November to May.
***Here is a great link for Local Weather forecasts and road conditions- https://pagosaweather.org/2024/10/16/lots-of-snow-in-the-snow-mountains-this-weekend/

*Every Sunday football game is available on every TV in the unit *
*There are security cameras on the exterior of the building for your safety on these premises.

HOUSE LAYOUT:
This delightful home is an exciting blend of modern and rural living, emitting both in interior and location. You will feel transported to the great outdoors while still within city limits, having both easy access to in-town amenities and immediate access to mother nature. Inside, framed with absolutely stunning wooden design and color, you'll first find the full kitchen and dining area. The impressively quaint living room will sit behind this area, stocked with large bay windows from the floor to the ceiling, comfortable lounging, and an inviting gas fireplace. Between the living room and dining area is a half bathroom plus, washer/dryer for convenience. You will also have direct access to the outside rear of the home/lakefront through the doors past the living room fireplace.
Lastly, on the main floor, the Master Bedroom guarantees coziness and relaxation while hosting its own spacious bathroom.
As the house opens up, you can take the stairs upwards to the guest bedrooms; one on the right and the other on the left. Both rooms provide additional abundant natural lighting and sufficient sleeping space for all. Between both rooms is another bathroom to share, equipped with the necessities of every commonplace full bathroom. If the living area seems too far for the guests in these rooms, there is a charming living space in the loft between the two rooms. This upstairs living area is equipped with a fun air hockey table and a well-stocked pile of board games.
The exterior of the home promotes rural living, nestled between forestry and waterfront country. There is an abundance of solitude and open-air whilst being near easy access to Pagosa Springs. You will never forget this location.

Great lake house!

Our stay at the lake was great! The views are great. It felt private, despite being attached as a duplex, and the lake is awesome. We paddleboarded every day. The lake is a bit hard to get into if you aren’t very agile, as they don’t have a dock or path cleared. The house has all the basic supplies which made our stay easy. It’s 15 minutes from downtown and right off the highway. We like to walk in the mornings, and there isn’t any ideal walking areas right out the door. But with the lake right there we took advantage of being on the water instead. We were a bit warm during the summer day as the only room with AC was the primary bedroom. It would have been great to have AC units in the two upper bedrooms as well. But overall this house is a 5 star stay!

Nice Place

The unit is very nice and the attention to detail and comfort is evident for the interior. Location on the lake is great and close to town. The scenery is incredible. We enjoyed fishing and paddle boarding. Our experience would have been better if the yard was maintained in some way. It was overgrown weeds and dirt/mud. The weeds detracted from the view and made lake access difficult. It rained pretty much every evening and turned the yard into mud, which made it tricky since we had a dog. Again - great place. We enjoyed our stay very much. Just some minimal yard maintenance would have made our stay perfect.

Very nice!

Our family really enjoyed our stay here. Loved being next to the lake and enjoying coffee sitting out on the porch each morning. The house was well stocked and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Very clean and comfortable. The only thing we had an issue with was not being able to stay cool during the day. The house would get pretty warm, especially upstairs. We didnt realize there was only one ac unit and it was in the master bedroom. It didn't cool things down very well. Our kids were very hot upstairs.

This is an exceptional getaway for friends and family who want to enjoy a peaceful, beautiful and comfortable home on the lake. The deck is spacious and well equipped with chairs and tables, both shaded and in the sun, with views that only Colorado can offer. You will find everything you need including very comfy beds. :).

This was a wonderful rental. Clean, quiet lake location. Very responsive mgmt when we had a very minor problem with the freezer door handle. the only suggestion I have is that the heat is not as easy to regulate as we were led to believe with Alexa. I highly endorse this listing.

Serene Setting - wonderful amenities

This property is tucked away—feeling private and serene. The breathtaking views of the lake can be seen from everywhere in the house. I loved the country quiet while being just a short drive from town, hot springs, etc. We loved having access to a huge game cart, paddle board, air hockey table, and more. The beds were exceptionally comfortable—no cheap scratchy sheets. It was the perfect base for our hiking, shopping, eating, swimming adventures. Just the calm we needed after a long drive to get there and high energy outings. Would stay again!

We enjoyed our stay very much. House was well suited for our needs. One change that would improve the experience is to install a handheld 🚿. My son and I are over 6ft and the one 🚿 we needed to duck to get under it, the other one you couldn't adjust enough to get out of the way while the temperature regulated.
