WALKABILITY

We were there for the annual Energy Fair and found the location perfect. Instead of having to fight for parking we parked at the unit and could walk to everything. The deer visited daily. The stars out the bedroom sliding door at night were wonderful. Our host even left some fresh garden produce in the fridge for us. Unit A is spacious and felt homey. We were very comfy.

Great place in a unique town.

We enjoyed our too brief stay in Crestone. Set up against the Crestone peaks, the town has a unique artsy laid back vibe. Went to eat in the only restaurant open ( it was a Monday) the cottage was very comfortable with a large kitchen/ dining/ kitchen area and a large bedroom. Well supplied, very clean,it was a perfect day to relax after a day of traveling!

Great little hidden gem

Really nice, spacious property in the heart of Crestone. It was perfect for access to the Great Sand Dunes while being centrally located in Crestone within walking distance to the center of town and restaurants. It was nice that they had plenty of cooking spices and soap/shampoo options available.

Verdant setting right next to town

In town for group retreats at the college, we rented Unit A and Unit B at the same time. This gave the comfort of having good friends next door, but with great privacy, too. A nice set-up. We did feel upon arrival that the scent of cleaning products in the unit was strong. But opening the windows for a while took care of it. After a long drive to reach Crestone, it was wonderful just to walk out our door a block or two to restaurants and shops. A convenient, charming, welcoming, and yet unpretentious visitor dwelling.

A wonderful spot to see the stars!

My partner and I visited Crestone during a new moon to stargaze. The Golden Getaway made for a great landing pad - clean, well appointed, and easy check-in and check-out. You can see the milky way from the front yard! We would definitely stay here again next time we are in the area. Thank you, Elaine!

Crestone Deer Haven

Beautiful, clean and comfortable home, but you had better be ready for a few "deer" friends to stop over. The property has apple trees on it and the deer just love to look for new fallen apples. Actually, we took fantastic close-up pictures of our new friends. We completely enjoyed our stay!

Quick stay to be ‘near’ Great Sand Dunes

This property was great and we found Crestone to be exceedingly charming. Our intention had been to be closer to Great Sand Dunes to cut down on night driving (after late night star gazing) but construction and a detour added to our drive time. Still love this property and location. Would like to return at explore town and nearby hiking. Great local market with walking distance provide what we needed to make dinner.
