My hosts were very cordial and kind. The bunkhouse was enjoyable for a relaxing break with a wood burning stove and a dark sky to view the stars. Their ranch dogs were well trained to engage with me when I wanted to spend time with them.

This was so lovely! John and Mary Lou are so wonderful and kind hosts. They made sure we made it in okay, gave us a tour, and provided waters. The bunkhouse is decorated beautifully and the beds are comfortable. You have to wake up to watch the sunrise and play fetch with the dogs. This was a joyful experience on our way from Chicago, IL to Aspen, CO. I would definitely stay again!

What a fun, unique place to stay for the night. We are always looking for a "local" place to stay to "soak" in the area and this completely met our expectations. The host greeted us and was friendly and courteous - answering all our questions! Will stay again when traveling through the area.

Cool cottage on a farm

The cottage was great. Plenty of room. And really quiet. It's located on a farm a little north of Gothenburg. I'd stay again!
