Returning visitors

This was our second time staying here. It was just as nice as the first time. My only gripe was that it wasnt quite as clean as last time. Beds had trash under them. Otherwise, it was a good trip.

Relaxing

You can sit on the couch and watch and listen to the water rippling by on the river outside the back door if your not outside setting by the fire pit. Deer visited everyday and ducks swam up the river. Great relaxing atmosphere in a quiet neighborhood. The house was just perfect for us. We would definitely stay here again.

Peaceful Riverside Retreat

Donna’s property is wonderful ! It’s right on the river with so much wildlife to view, ducks, fish, small birds and deer. There is plenty of space inside and out. Kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms are well stocked with most anything you would need. The area is secluded and peaceful! We will be returning!

Quaint little house on the river.We had deer everyday to watch out the windows. The beds and the bathroom were small and a bit outdated. 4 adults would have been a tighter fit, but for the 2 of us, cozy! We'd stay here again!

Just Almost Perfect ....

Beautiful, convenient place. My wife and I plus my adult daughter and her significant stayed very comfortably, cooked a few meals, had a blast. We spent most of our time out and about, but this was such a great place to come home to. My wife and I fly fished everyday (creeks and rivers between Gunnison and Crested Butte), and we had a nice comfortable back deck to drop our waders, rig up our rods, hang out, happy hour, watching the rafters, fishing guides, and eat dinners. Ducks, geese, deer shared our view. Saw them everyday. The only reason I say 'almost perfect' is because I was hoping we could wade out from the backyard and fish. At least while we were there the current was a little strong, water a little high, but so it goes with any river access. It was fun enough to watch a couple boat anglers catch a couple right in front of us. Easy in, easy out. No traffic noise, peaceful.

We'd stay again

It was such a peaceful location with rain and deer viewings included. Being right on the water made it over the top. A cabin/lodge vibe with quaint and comfortable decor. Includes lots of kitchen cooking equipment, enough to cook for a family. Note no disposal in sink. If we ever find ourselves in Gunnison again, we'd stay here. The only drawback was the one bathroom did not have a fan/vent in it.

Nice place for small group

Super easy check-in and check-out. Cozy living room, well-stocked kitchen for cooking. The beds could use replacement or at least a topper to make them more comfortable. Other than that, everything was great.

Great Stay!!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was amazing and met our needs perfectly. It was so nicely decorated and bed was very comfortable. We loved the view of the Gunnison River. We had a visitor from a young buck one day! He stayed in the yard quite awhile. We would certainly recommend and would love to come back. We did have an issue with the TV and the owner stayed on the phone with me until it was resolved which I really appreciated. The problem was not the TV but our knowing how to use!

beautiful location

Loved the location. Cabin is very nice but older so not like a luxury hotel. As long as you realize that, it is great. Very quiet, out of the traffic in town. Since it is by the river, there are many gnats and of course they do get into the house but that is to be expected if one knows Colorado at all. Deer came right by sliding glass doors every morning, so beautiful, and the cabin has everything you need, even a hair dryer. The only suggestion I would have is to replace the mattress in second bedroom. It is soft, but doesn't support very well since it is probably older. All in all, we would definitely stay there again. Outstanding for cabins in the Gunnison area and we have stayed in many. Also priced well compared to other lodging in the valley.

About the host

Hosted by Donna

My husband Steve and I have been coming to Gunnison for the past 35 years. This is home to my husband whom has been coming to Gunnison since he was 4 years old. He remembers the cabins along the river Before Blue Mesa Reservoir was created. We lived in Gunnison full time for 10 years! Now we have a part time home that we would love to share with YOU.

Why they chose this property

This property was the Historic Old Red Dolly (for you ol' timers) Located on the Gunnison River with some of the greatest fishing right out your back door. Put in a raft and enjoy the Gunnison River up close and personal. So close to Blue Mesa Reservoir, great boating!

What makes this property unique

This is a small private cottage on the Gunnison River with some of the best fishing in your backyard. If you like Lake fishing or Boating, our place is only 10 minutes to Blue Mesa Reservoir ! This home is cozy, quiet, yet close to everything the Gunnison Country has to offer.
