About this property

A River Runs Through It - Log Home, Garage Game Room, 50 Acres, 3 Min to Town

Welcome to A River Runs Through It, our beautiful family property perfect for your Colorado getaway!

→ Surrounded by 50 acres
→ Adjacent state fishing access
→ Less than 30 min from Black Canyon National Park and Ridgway
→ 40 min from Ouray
→ 1 hr 15 min from Telluride and 1 hr 20 min from Silverton
→ Garage game room with foosball, dartboard, shuffleboard, and ping pong
→ Wrap around porch overlooking the river and large yard
→ Manmade creek running through the property
→ 3 min from the nearest grocery store

The space
On the main floor there is a gathering space which includes an open-concept kitchen, living room with fireplace, dining areas, and a game table. The large wrap-around porch is a beautiful place to sit in the mornings and soak up the sun, enjoy the view, or share an evening meal. This is a great location for birding and watching wildlife that live on the property.
*NEW ADDITION: We have added a game room in the garage that contains a foosball table, shuffleboard, dartboard, game table, and ping pong table!
**The house has Wi-Fi and the TVs throughout the home are streaming ready (no cable).

There is an attached manager-occupied apartment above the garage across the breezeway so we can answer questions or address any issues that might come up.

Bedrooms
Master Bedroom: 1 king bed and 1 queen sleeper sofa.
1st Upstairs Bedroom: 1 queen bed.
2nd Upstairs Bedroom: Full size bunk beds.
Library Adjacent to Gathering Area: 1 queen sleeper sofa.

Bathrooms
Master Bathroom: Full bath with double sink and walk-in closet.
Upstairs Bathroom: Full jack and jill bathroom with shared toilet and tub/shower and separate vanities for each of the two upstairs bedrooms.
Downstairs Bathroom: Half bath located in the hallway downstairs off the entrance.

Cabin Addition
Located on the property is a historic, restored sod house with a live green roof. The house has a small kitchen and full bath. One full-size bed and one queen bed are located at one end of the open space where you can fall asleep to the sound of the river. The sod house sleeps four and is available to reserve (for an added fee) in addition to the main house May through September, weather permitting. This addition is $100/night plus an additional cleaning fee of $75. There is no A/C in the sod house, but it stays pretty cool, so it isn't really needed!
***The cabin is a rustic experience for those who don’t mind the possibility of sharing the space with the occasional insect that finds its way inside.

This house was previously listed as "Woodgate Mountain Retreat: 40 Acres of Peace!" and was hosted by a STR management company. We have made the switch to being owner managed.

Guest access
You will have access to the entire home, the gorgeous porch, and the backyard. There is also river access and state water with fishing access upstream of the property between the bridge and the yard!
PLEASE NOTE: We have a local rancher who keeps his cattle on some of the surrounding acreage. We kindly request that you stay out of these areas for safety reasons. They are for your viewing pleasure only.
*PLEASE NOTE: Fishing on the river is acceptable with an appropriate fishing license, but it is catch and release ONLY. The river access from the property is undeveloped so please fish according to your abilities and at your own risk.
***PLEASE NOTE: The sod house on the property is available to rent from May 1st through September 30th. The house sleeps an additional 4 people. The total number of guests the house sleeps without the use of the sod house is 10.
****PLEASE NOTE: The beautiful and unique driveway is hand-placed cobblestone and is bumpy. It is easily manageable for vehicles; however, motorcycles should be aware and use caution.

Work Trip

Six of us from work had a meeting in Montrose. Great place for a group. Plenty of rooms and privacy paired with a large living room space that allowed us to complete some of the work we needed to do together. Gorgeous setting, quite, and comfortable.

A hideaway oasis close to town!

A wonderful location. Close to town to get groceries. Close to many places to visit like Telluride, Ouray, Black Canyon among others yet this place feels secluded and is very gorgeous and comfortable!

What is not to like about this beautiful and peaceful place! It really is a sanctuary.

We loved the space and location. Plenty of room to spread out in the open kitchen and great room. And the deck was the highlight for early morning coffee and evening sunsets

Beautiful setting and property

We needed a large property for a last minute family gathering. This property fit the bill perfectly, not only did it have sufficient accommodations but the house and setting were beautiful and peaceful and provided the tranquility that was needed at the time and allowed the family to be together during a trying situation.

What a place!

We needed a place to stay close to Ophir and Imogene Pass in Colorado. This house was wonderful. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was stocked. There was plenty of room for 8 adults and 1 child. The views from the back porch were wonderful. We would definitely stay again!

Just the escape we needed

What an incredible place. It was our home base for day trips, but we also spent a lot of time enjoying the property. The kids kids loved the stream and had a great time on the rope swing. The photos are accurate, but being there is so much better.
