Spacious 3bed/2bath home on 3 acres perched high above the mighty Uncompahgre River. Take a stroll down to the river on the property, or head over to the Ridgway State Park less than a half mile away. The town of Ridgway is 3 miles away, where shops and restaurants abound. Telluride is a convenient 45 min away and Ouray is only 10 minutes to its hot springs and adventures! This property makes an excellent base camp for many activities, especially hunting during autumn. Convenient access to units 62 and 65. Plenty of parking for trailers, atv’s, utv’s, etc. Plenty of wildlife to watch right at the property. Bald eagles arrive late September/early October for the fall salmon run from the Ridgway reservoir up the Uncompahgre river. The eagles often stay around until late November/early December.
This house has an attached lock off apartment, otherwise known as an additional dwelling unit (ADU). The owner occupies this ADU when he is not traveling for work. There is absolutely no shared spaces. The only place with interaction would be in the driveway/yard. This basically provides an on site property manager to help with any issues that may arise.

The location and local activities were perfect! The house was spacious and comfortable and had several nice features like newer flooring, lovely wood beams, lots of counter space, spectacular views, and ideally located near trails. The unit was advertised with a premier host rating so we expected a 4- or 5-star unit, but the cleanliness and maintenance of the unit were more like a 3-star facility. The backyard furniture was falling apart and unusable, and there was no grill (we used the host's personal grill - not a great location). The window screens were in bad repair and the screen door was broken (letting in all the flies). The refrigerator ice maker and water dispenser were broken. A number of light bulbs were burnt out. The master bed was on a platform that was too large for the mattress and difficult to get in and out of. The front room bed was extremely uncomfortable (but we were glad for the air mattress). There were no small, but nice personal touches such as tissues, shampoo, or lotion. The kitchen was not well organized, and it was hard to find things. There were a large amount of dead bugs in most of the light fixtures, and the living room furniture had not been vacuumed. The caulking on the windows and bathrooms was in bad repair. The condensation in the windows hinders the spectacular views. With a little elbow grease, updated décor & furniture (beds and patio), and TLC, this unit would live up to the premier rating and be worth the price.
Great location! The house is large enough for everyone to stretch out. Jay was quick to answer any questions and to give suggestions for hiking, biking etc.
The rustic cabin is located in a quiet rural subdivision just minutes from restaurants and hiking. The cabin sits on top a ridge. The views are amazing. Every day we would rush home to enjoy the tranquil patio. The mountains and river are breathless. Our 2 dogs loved the place. The host is very gracious and attentive.
Good location outside of Ridgway.
Bed mattresses could use updating, pretty worn out.
Hot tube worked, not all jets were working.
Spacious house, enjoyed the stay.
Property is in a great location for the area, easy to get to and comfortable size. Only area of improvement would be a bit more detail to the cleanliness of the house, but nothing that we couldn't take care of ourselves
From the beginning communication with our host was excellent. He was responsive to all inquiries and accessible by phone and text. When we had car trouble, he helped, he provided sleds, advice about the area and kept the hot tub spotless.
House is well located for winter activities-skiing and sledding in Ouray and Telluride, hot springs in Ouray and Ridgway, community rec center in Montrose, Ouray Ice Park. Beautiful drive up Owl Creek Pass Rd, and million dollar highway if you are brave. Close to good restaurants and breweries but best to stock up on groceries in Montrose.
Loved having the 'meadow' below the house-grandkids and dogs loved the freedom.
House is large and well equipped for entertaining and fit our family of 7 well. We used two outdoor chairs to augment living room seating. Master bedroom bed was super comfy but might need mattress toppers for other two beds. Laundry room served as mud room which worked well with winter weather. Kitchen appliances in good working order and we loved the air fryer.
Thanks Jay for a great CO experience!
We got to watch the fall colors come alive at this beautiful property. Jay is a great host and the dogs loved it. Bring coffee cups. . . . They were missing. The hot tub was a hit as was the wall of windows looking at the San Juan’s. Great internet too. Thanks Jay - we will be back.
wonderful views, close to the city but with space to breathe
Waking up, watching the sun come up at the lake every morning was wonderful. We saw a bald eagle on two of our three mornings and that alone was amazing. The deer around the property was special as well, to connect with nature all around.
The house itself is not spectacular in the materialistic way. It's older, 'in need of a remodel' and new or cleaned carpet would be a bonus. The patio itself needs some work, as there are a few areas that are 'soft' or a bit in disrepair. Though many may have balked that this, it was oK for us. We don't care so much about bling, but new carpet and a more comfortable couch would be nice.
We would stay here again - for the views, the quiet and the nature.
This was a special place. Great views etc. What really made it super special was Jason the host. He went above and beyond to assure we had a fabulous time. What an amazing guy.
Thanks Jason for letting us stay in your place again. Always enjoy the house and the views. Our dogs enjoyed watching the deer and the horses across the road. Will be back again.
Plenty of space with great views and super easy access to town and everything you need. The house is very open and roomy with lots of windows. The house was clean, but with a few areas that could get a bit more attention (a few obvious cobwebs, but nothing serious). Its pet friendly, so I can't really complain too much about some hotel-level pristine place. The place meets all your basic needs; though a few things need some maintenance -- mostly diswasher was broken, the rear main sliding door screen was broken, and the pull-out trash can cupboard was broken. But everything else worked well. Overall this place met our needs and is a great place for families with rambunctious children or pets and an active lifestyle wanting to get out and explore the beautiful area. Oh -- we only saw the owner once and apparently he was pretty cool (wife and kid met him). He had a friend of his staying in the other "part" of the house who was also cool and made friends with my toddler while he was doing some maintenance on his car -- my kid was fascinated watching that -- so was cool. Having their presence on-site didn't bother us at all.
My parents and I greatly enjoyed this unique home, built from log construction. It fascinated my father! The house is very dog friendly, which made it more relaxing for us as we did travel with our dogs. The kitchen has what we needed to cook but appliances are not in the best shape. But everything worked for us. We truly enjoyed the location and when we needed help raising the temp on the hottub it was quickly handled for us. The Milky Way is quite a sight from the hottub - if you live in a city you will not believe your eyes.

Why they chose this property
I've traveled all over the world chasing fun, and this property is as nice as you will find anywhere in North America.
What makes this property unique
Being high above the river allows you to watch the wildlife from a comfortable distance without disturbing them. The lower property is like a different, tranquil world.
