Great Cabin Retreat

Cabin was great for a weekend getaway. Very clean and accurately portrayed in photos. Washer/Dryer was a plus when we got caught in a rainstorm! Creede is a fun town, friendly people and unique shops.

Convenient and cozy stay in Creede

Very close to everything that one could want in the down town area. Entire town was within walking distance, and the property manager was most accomodating. A very pleasant stay.

Fan review

The Fran has a great location, very walkable to all areas. It does let in noises from the street. It was very clean and comfortable. Communication very available but not needed. The additional service fees were high particularly given the rules that the quest was expected to do all dishes and had limits in use of soap, toilet paper and paper towels.

Historic Cabin - great location!

We loved staying in this charming historic cabin in downtown Creede. Lovely wood paneling throughout the cabin. It was cool inside even when warm outside. Washer and dryer was a bonus. The front porch was a great place to sit in the morning,have coffee and watch all the people with boats, 4-wheelers, etc head out of town for the day's adventure. We also sat there in the evening as well. So close to downtown and all the restaurants, so it was easy to stop at the cabin throughout the day and drop off our shopping bags, or change clothes after a hike, and go back out. Owner was very responsive when we added a day at the last minute. We would absolutely stay there again.

Great rustic cabin in the heart of Creede

This property was very spacious and clean and has a great location - truly can walk to everything in town. All the kitchen appliances were very modern and liked to tankless water heater - always and abundance of hot water for showers. Also appreciated having a washer and dryer. The owner answered every question we had very promptly. Overall a good place for our first stay in Creede.

A Nostalgic and Wonderful Stay in Creede

Our stay at Melissa’s property in downtown Creede was nothing short of wonderful. This charming house, which is over a century old, served as our cozy headquarters during our brief stay. It was a joy to return to a place that holds so many childhood memories for me, and this house was one I had walked by many times in the past. The location of the house is perfect, nestled in the heart of Creede, allowing us easy access to the town and the stunning San Juan Mountains. The scenery was breathtaking, with majestic mountains and cascading waterfalls that added to the beauty of our surroundings. It was a delight to share these natural wonders with my wife. Although we didn’t have much contact with Melissa, our stay was seamless and everything we needed was provided. The house was clean, comfortable, and full of character, adding to the charm of our trip. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to stay in such a historic and well-preserved property. It made our trip all the more special. Thank you, Melissa, for a memorable stay. We look forward to returning in the future.

Wonderful Accommodation!

We enjoyed our stay in the Fran a great deal. Everything was as described. The kitchen was great for meal preparation, everything was spotless upon our arrival, the bed was comfortable and there was ample space for the two of us. The location is perfect for walks through town and to restaurants. We would love to stay there again. Thank you!

very good, except when I made the reservation the information I received stated there was a smart television. There was no television. Conneceted Mellisa and her reply was that the tv was removed and would not be replaced, therefore I think I should get a credit for no tv.

Great cabin in Creede

The little cabin is in the perfect location in downtown Creede. The cabin was cozy and had everything we needed for our stay. The charm and location made this place perfect for our stay. We made many trips per day walking up and down the main streets and enjoyed relaxing on the small porch. One note, as stated in the description, the mattress is very firm, so if you are adverse to a firm mattress you may want to take that into consideration.

Quaint & Rustic

This little place worked for us. The location is great. The neighbors are friendly. The only exceptions we had were: 1. The compact shower - not good for tall people 2. The front curtains are not wide enough to fully cover the window for a sense of privacy 3. Other than the front patio chairs, there are no comfortable chairs in which to relax after a long day 4. Only one partial roll of TP was provided - discovered too late that there were no extra rolls 5. The Flintstone-style bed. Regardless, we would probably stay here again.

Great Location

My husband and I stayed at The Fran during our visit to the Creede area. We were on out adventure bikes and spent the days exploring in the mountains. Description was accurate when it says within walking distance of restaurants, grocery store, and shops in Creede. Cabin was a perfect size of the two of us and there were plenty of plugs for charging all of today's electronics -- helmet intercoms, GPS units, cell phones, satellite communicators, etc. Mel was great to work with and responded quickly to any questions we had. Hope to stay again in the future.
