La Plata Mountains Bunkhouse - Cozy/Comfortable/Economical

BUNKHOUSE/CABIN: This little cabin is perfect for a couple or small close knit family. It was originally a one room log structure build in 1989 for the owners of the main cabin for sleeping quarters for grand kids and other visitors. In 2015 my Dad refinished it inside and out and added a bathroom, kitchenette and covered deck. It is uniquely handcrafted, comfortable, cozy and cute as a bugs ear. Although, it is close to the main cabin, the separate parking, entry, deck and grill are positioned in an effort to achieve privacy even when the main cabin is occupied. The main room has a full sized bed with new mattress, twin bunk beds and a living area. The kitchenette has granite counter top with drop in cook-top and compact oven. Every bit of space is utilized to provide the well equipped cooking utensils and food storage for those who enjoy good home cooked meals. The patio table and chairs on the outside deck offer a great place to dine. The bathroom (toilet and shower) is new and well appointed.

LOCATION/SETTING: This property lies in the foothills of the La Plata Mountain Range just 5 miles of paved country road from Mancos, Colorado. It sets on 3 acres of pine, juniper and gambel's oak trees. At an elevation of 7820 feet the summer evenings are generally cool and daytime temperatures are mild. The mesa top of Mesa Verde NP marks the horizon of the evening sunsets. A 30 minute drives gets you to historic downtown Durango. This proximity offers scenic beauty and too many outdoor activities and attractions to list. Take some time to relax on the deck and enjoy the resident birds, deer and maybe even a sighting of fox, bobcat or coyote.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. The cabin also includes a coffee maker.

Perfect little cabin in the woods

My kids and I loved our stay at this cute little cabin! It was the perfect home base for our adventures in Mesa Verde and Durango. The host was so kind and helpful (especially when there was an unexpected snowstorm and my vehicle got stuck!). The cabin was clean and in good repair. It was close enough to grocery stores and gas stations, but far enough we got the secluded camping vibes we were looking for!

Wonderful cabin

Wonderful cabin, excellent communication with host & accurate description of property. I'd strongly recommend future guests to bring fans, cabin does not cool well or have proper air flow without access to back door. Keeping all windows/door open helps but not sufficient during current heat wave. We look forward to our next visit & strongly recommend.

Wonderful cabin

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. We could cook anything in the compact little kitchen and the grill. We spend most days exploring the area (nearby mountains and streams and Mesa Verde), and a some time just relaxing on the porch! We picked a week that was ...well...hot but the host was very attentive and brought an extra fan by. I hope to come back.

Delightful Mountain Get-Away

Cain and property were as advertised. So cute! and had everything we needed for a week. Great base location for fantastic day trips enjoying nature! We kayaked at 3 different lakes, did scenic drives and the train ride in Durango. Enjoyed looking around downtown Mancos also. Had deer in our yard one morning!

Fun family retreat

We stayed at this cabin in November and fell in love with it’s cozy and comfortable style! We loved it so much we came back in June to experience it in the summer! This cabin has everything you need for a family getaway- including access to a wooded yard, and close to hiking and biking trails. Chelsea is super kind and responsive with her communication. We hope to return again in the future!

Lovely Little Getaway

Nestled above the town of Mancos, this little cabin has everything my little family needed for a weekend getaway from the stress of the city. Clean, well stocked(love the attention to detail!) and ridiculously cute, I could spend every weekend in that cabin! At first I was hesitant to book at a place that seemed so far away from everything, but there's actually SO much to do nearby. We spent an entire day at Mesa Verde Narional Park even with half the trails and all the buildings still closed off, and finished with a dip in the river at Cottonwood Park near downtown Mancos. We want to return for the cidery that was closed, as well as some time to explore all that nearby Durango has to offer. We didn't have enough time! Chelsea is gem and goes above and beyond! Can't say enough great things about this place!

SW Colorado Retreat

The compact and well-equipped cabin/bunkhouse was a perfect home base from which my 89 y.o. dad and I explored the area over a week. We cooked and enjoyed quiet, peaceful mornings and evenings on the deck. I could easily see a couple or young family here. Located a short drive down a paved county road off of US 160 just east of Mancos, it was very convenient for day trips to all major sites in the area - Durango, Silverton, Telluride, Dolores, Cortez, Mesa Verde. We especially enjoyed Canyon of the Ancients Heritage Center near Dolores, Absolute Baking Company and Bomdiggity in artsy Mancos, and Sutcliffe Wines in McElmo Canyon.

Quiet, cozy, clean & comfortable

We loved this place! My wife and I stayed here for a short getaway from Denver. It's in a great location with just a walk up the road to the national forest, 10 minutes from Mesa Verde NP, and 30 minutes to Durango. We saw several deer and elk roaming the neighborhood. The cabin is very well taken care of, and the owner is super friendly and accommodating.

The cabin was absolutely perfect . I enjoyed not having a television or internet. It was a true getaway. The location was great and not too far from town. In the morning we would see a few deer feeding outside our door. Rollin was a great host. Upon arriving there were a couple of delicious cookies on the table . (how thoughtful!) .We went horseback riding just around the corner. That was so amazing, peaceful and beautiful. We are looking to come back again!

Peaceful Mountain Cabin

The cabin was beautiful and clean! The location could not have been better. Very close to lots of mountain bike trails and great food in any direction. An absolutely perfect place to unwind after a day of fun. We spent lots of time enjoying the deck. Horseback riding within minutes of the cabin. The owner, Rollin, was great and made sure we had everything we needed. We’ll definitely be back.
