About this property

Cozy House on 35 Acres with Mesa Verde and Mountain Views.

House on 35 Acres with views of the La Plata Mountains to Mesa Verde National Park and The Four Corners. Hiking trails on site. Large deck for sunrise coffee and sunset dinners.

This is a 400 square foot, park model home, 2 miles from the town of Dolores. New renovated interior. Full size appliances. Kitchen table and lift top coffee table or patio furniture on the deck for meals.

Kitchen item include a coffee maker, microwave, toaster oven all dishes and silverware.

The sun comes in the south facing widows in the morning which is a good time to look out for deer and elk.

Take a walk around the perimeter of the acreage in the evening during sunset to find pottery shards and see wildlife. Sleep well with cool nights at 7000 feet.

I supply paper towels, TP, hand soap. Sheets and towels provided.

New large window mounted air conditioner. Evenings cool off after sunset.

Has a bath tub but the water heater is only 20 gallons.

It's a half mile gravel road access. Owner occasionally works and overnights in the adjacent building with a separate access road.

There's a friendly outdoor cat.

A very nice place!

The property is located about 2.5 miles from the little town of Dolores CO (which has moved upscale since my last visit with a really good cafe and brewpub). The property is just as pictured, but what can't be seen is the quiet. It's really quiet here, private and very peaceful, and it's a great base for exploring the area. Dean was a great host, responded to my one question about wifi, and I enjoyed my stay.

Beautiful peaceful location - very private but with easy access to Dolores, Cortez, and countless outdoor opportunities. Dean is a great host and offers excellent, quick, and reliable communication.

Beautiful Property

We loved staying here! Check in and check out was a breeze, communication was wonderful. But this location was just perfect for what we were looking for. Close enough to Cortez, Delores and Mesa Verde; but further enough out to be peaceful. We love taking in the amazing views on the deck and walking the property. We will definitely stay again if in the area!

Best Location Ever!!!

My wife and I plus 2 dogs stayed here for 2 weeks and we didn’t want to leave. The house is prime location to do allot of stuff in less than a hour. Close to Mesa Verde National Park, Durango, Telluride, Mancos and of course the local town of Delores. We enjoyed all of the above and Dean was a fantastic host and we didn’t need a thing. The house was equipped with everything we needed and the property was the best thing about it. 35 acres with paths that we used to walk the dogs around the property, deer everywhere and wild life. Dean was a great host and don’t hesitate to book this property and we will definitely be back!!!

What a Gem

This was such a peaceful setting! The star gazing is awesome. It was easy check in as Dean is very good about answering messages. The tiny house seemed much bigger than 400 Sq ft. It's a great set up with a laundry in the out building. He has everything you need there to cook and it was all spic and span! It's a great location to all your SW Colorado outings. We went to Mesa Verde National Park, 4 Corners, Hovenweep, Lowery Pueblo, The Musuem of the Ancients, and McElmos Canyon outside of Cortez. One more day would have allowed us to go to Telluride, but the weatherman said snow! Thank you Dean for having such a gem of a place! We defintely recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful stay.

If you want great views and privacy this is the place for you. Centrally located to Mesa Verde National Park, Durango and the Million dollar highway. It’s a gem for the size and was perfect for our home base while we did sightseeing during the day. A peaceful retreat with wildlife out your front door.

Second Visit Just as Lovely as First One

We stayed here a year ago and liked it so much we returned. The location is private and quiet with wonderful views. It's a neat and clean little home and convenient to many tourist attractions. We brought our dog, and appreciated the kennel when we needed to use it. The trail around the south of the property is good for exercise. The kitchen had all we needed for basic cooking when we didn't want to go out. We really enjoyed the coffee table that became a dining table when we wanted to watch TV as we had dinner.

Great spot a few miles from Dolores and from Phil’s world.

Dean is a wonderful host, quick to respond and help with anything. The location is ideal for anyone who appreciates quiet, beautiful views, and access to trails. Beautiful spot! (And Dean has thought of many small details to totally cap the experience!)
