About this property

Country getaway nestled in a serene and private wooded estate.

Carter's Cabin is a uniquely wonderful cabin offering a cozy and comfortable getaway nestled in a serene and private wooded estate on the Animas River where you can enjoy the prolific wildlife where rarely has a day gone by without deer wandering through the yard or the foxes coming out to play! With approximately 1200 sq ft of space, a living/dining area large enough to seat up to 6, full kitchen, and a bedroom loft that is uniquely appropriate for a businessman who wants more than a hotel room or small family getaways.

In the winter, the woodstove can provide a warm focal point on a cold evening. In the summer, a porch in front or back will provide fresh air and cool breezes and a view of the beautifully manicured grounds. Feed the huge catfish in the pond. Sorry no fishing in the pond, but you can fish in the river. A gas grill allows for relaxing outdoor dining. Onsite amenities include tennis/basketball/pickle ball court, volleyball area, golfing area, fishing and a very private biking, walking, or jogging paths and stables are available for your horse. And the best part is it is located only 6 blocks from the Animas Valley mall!

This home is equipped with a washer/dryer so you need not pack a lot of clothes for an extended stay. In addition to the King bed in the loft there is a pull-out sofa bed in the downstairs living area. For your indoor entertainment, there is a flat TV along with a Blu-Ray DVD player. Internet is available to keep up with what's going on in the outside world. Stables are available for rent. Weekly maid service is available at an additional cost. This is a NON-Smoking home!

Spacious and comfortable

This little Getaway Cabin was spacious and comfortable. In addition to being a lovely property there was plenty of outdoor space to stretch our legs. The cabin is well stocked with necessities. The location is in close proximity to restaurants, markets and gas stations. We were very well rested for our exploring adventures.

Beautiful and cozy

We rented this property because there are too many adults to stay at my parents house for Christmas. The property and cabin are beautiful. By cozy, I don't mean small but that the feel of the place is cozy. We brought our family to see the cabin because it was so lovely. The fixtures in the house made you feelike you were in a turn of the century home but with all modern amenities. We would be more than happy to stay again. We just wish we had more time there.

Cabin lifestyle

Cozy cabin next to the river. We enjoyed walking around, grilling steaks, soaking up the sun. Comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen. Bathroom was interesting, but serviceable. Really appreciated the communication from the owners and helpful ideas on sites to see.

Cute Cabin

It was a very nice and peaceful cabin. We just stayed for 3 nights. We wanted to go explore Bisti Badlands but it rained. We enjoyed watching football and just relaxing. The cabin has everything you would want in a house. The steps upstairs was hard for me, but I am 66. Most people would not mind. I would definitely recommend this place to stay.

Enchanted Vacation

This property is the picturesque vacation home. It felt safe and secure and had so many beautiful things to look at and space to roam. The beds were comfortable, everything was very clean and spacious and customer service was excellent. This is my only go to spot to stay when I am traveling in the area.

June escape

We were attending a friend's wedding in Farmington. This cabin was a wonderful spot to relax. The kids (1 x teenager; 1 x almost tween) thoroughly enjoyed the property being able to get into nature a bit in a secure setting. One recommendation is insect repellant as they were out in the evening hours near the river. All the directions and instructions were accurate and made access easy. Thank you for the experince!

Adorable cabin on stunning property close to everything

We loved our stay here! My husband and I stayed two nights with our two kids while we were in the area visiting Bisti and Chaco. All four of us loved this stay. The cabin is as advertised and the property is more beautiful than pictures can capture. We had to drag my kids inside from the trampoline and lovely grounds. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cozy cabin. The setting was beautiful with a small pond out front and the sound of the Animas river flowing nearby. There were numerous geese that visited daily. We chose this cabin for it’s proximity to fly fishing on the San Juan. We highly recommend this property and host!

Wonderful Cabin near the Animus River

We loved the cabin! It was a bit higher than our price range but definitely worth it! Rose and Terry were great hosts leaving flowers, wine and 3 dozen eggs from their chickens. Sadly Rose's Mother passed. We brought her a large tray to feed relatives because they were so nice to us. The location is near the main drag for food, resturaunts and the Animas Mall. We were visiting our Grandsons only 6 minutes away. We were quite sick the first several days but quite comfortable. The property is family friendly with kids equipment, horses and trampoline. There is a great pond in the front of the cabin. Geese, turkey and deer roam the property. The cabin was quite comfortable. We slept in the loft up 12 stairs. This is not for someone who can't go up and down stairs. There was plenty of room for our clothes. The cabin was one of the best places we ever stay and we will definitely return.
