Pefexct for somone trying to hit the slopes
Property is great and easy to get to, we were able to dry our gear and keep it all ready to go for days on the mountain. Would 100% look to stay again if in the area.

Great place to stay for a mountain experience. We got lucky and got 30” of snow while we were there. Definitely an isolated area so be sure to pack well. T-mobile service worked great.

Cozy stay with a beautiful view!
We had a wonderful time and the place was perfect for us. We got there and it was snowing so we cooked all of our meals for the week! We fly fished, went jeeping and enjoyed the gorgeous San Juans! Ended up having to cut our trip short due to a death in the family, but it was still a great place and we will be back to stay there again!

House was great. Clean and a great location to everything. I would like to recommend a bigger back porch. Was a bit difficult to maneuver around. And- we’re not big people.

Animas house
Ideal location for enjoying the San Juan’s. Historic home, modern interior, phenomenal shower, and so nice to be right on the river. And whoever came up with putting sky lights in the bathroom is genius…washing your face in the morning and looking at those mountain peaks gets you that much more stoked to start your day. A property I will want to return to.

Silverton Ski Trip - Rule of 5
We were on a family trip to Silverton with the main purpose of skiing at the nearby mountain. The Animas River House was perfect for our 5 night stay in town. It was only a 5 minute walk to the Silverton town center and was a good size for a group of 5. We really enjoyed our stay!

This place is wonderful. You can see and hear the Animus River from the balcony. It was very nice to hang at the house and nice to come home to after a day of sightseeing sometimes up a 14 thousand foot mountain. Recommended!

A gem in the a great town
My husband and I stayed for a month at the Animas River house. It was perfect for us. We were close to the river, close to town, and were steps away from great trails to hike. We had a lovely time. We had a few questions before we arrived and the owners were quick to respond. We look forward to returning to Silverton and staying at the little red house by the river.

Cozy & Comfortable
You can't beat this location in Silverton to have a house instead of a hotel room. We were a close 3 minute walk to town. The beds were comfortable, and the bathroom was beautiful! Only downside is the water pressure was SO GOOD, that it ran out of hot water after 2 showers. There were four of us, so we had to shower strategically. Would stay here again!
