Great Stay!
A wonderful inviting and quaint atmosphere! Everything was easy to access and if we had any issues, they were available. We will go back if we ever head that way in the future.

Best place ever
This is hands-down, our favorite staycation. We use it to ease into to the higher elevations in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Las Animas it’s not a fancy town, but we’re not looking for that. They have created an amazing oasis of creativity and relaxation and a way for my husband and I to spread out a little bit and relax. They even share their produce with us! We’ve stayed here twice and most certainly will return.
