We loved the property, perfect amount of seclusion. Very close to the town. The cabin was clean and very well stocked. If you prefer a firm bed, then this cabin is for you! The fall foliage was beautiful and getting to experience the first snow of the season on the mountain tops was amazing. We were hoping to fish in the creek that runs in front of the cabin but due to the once in a lifetime floods the area experienced that was a big negative! However, it was nice to get away from the humidity of Broken Bow, Ok. Thank you so much for your hospitality and we look forward to staying with you in the near future.
The house sat in a picturesque spot at the end of a quiet gravel road, right beside the South Fork of the Rio Grande creek. Every bedroomâand even the dining tableâoffered peaceful views of the water. It was nearly ideal for families with young children, featuring bunk beds, open space to explore indoors, and easy access to the creek from the covered rear decks. The beds were comfortable, and each bedroom had its own bathroomâexcept for the upstairs bath, which was shared between two rooms, one of which had bunk beds. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the spacious living and dining area included a cozy fireplace and a TV. Both rear decks were covered, making them perfect for relaxing and enjoying the scenery.
The location was convenient. The house is ideal for 3 couples. The highway was very close, so there was highway noise. The property was nice just needed a deep clean. We didn't use the hot tub or the outside much, they had painters refinishing the house and it was a little weird being outside with them. They were there everyday during the day of the stay. The first evening a gentleman came by and told us that he overseen the property and they had 30 minutes of painting, so we said that would be okay. I messaged the owner to make sure he was indeed the overseer of the property, she said he did look after the property. The 30 minutes of painting lead to them painting the following 2 days, it was a bit odd with them standing outside the windows throughout the day. After we left, the owner asked for a review-I told her it would have been better if the painters had not been there. She told me that they never have maintenance done with guests. The person looking after the property was fully aware-he was there. If you have someone overseeing the property they should know your rules. If the painters had not been there it would have been more enjoyable but we did get out and enjoy some beautiful drives in the area.
Perfect for our family of 10! Kids loved the bunkroom and play area, great gathering area for meals and family time. Too cold (15-25 degrees during our stay) to spend much time outside on the property, but we did enjoy the views. Convenient to skiing, ice fishing, skating, and sledding. Also drove to Alamosa for kids movie, and Worth The Drive Bakery for all kinds of yummy stuff. Wish we could have stayed longer to go to the Great Sand Dunes National park. We will be back!
We unfortunately couldnât stay, but our friends did. They told us it was beautiful and everything went well. They were sad to drive away. Thanks so much to the host for being so understanding.
We had three families staying in the house (6 adults and 6 kids) and there was plenty of space for everyone! Having the river so close was wonderful as we could watch the deer come in the evening. The house was well stocked and clean. Only issues we had were that the upstairs bedrooms stayed pretty warm and we couldnât get the dishwasher to work very well. Would definitely come again!
Beautiful Home and Location for a Colorado Vacation!
Everything about our experience with our vacation was excellent! The house was clean, comfortable and spacious enough for three families to spend a week in Colorado! South Fork was a perfect spot for us and the home was surrounded by beautiful scenery and wildlife. We had access to hiking, fishing and UTV trails, all within minutes from the house. The host was very friendly, professional and accommodating. Communication was quick and easy! We highly recommend staying here! We will definitely be back to South Fork and would absolutely stay in this location again! Five stars!!
We came into our beautiful rental home looking to have a place to come together as family and friends to enjoy this moment we have waited for to find her knight in shining armor.
Our hosts were so amazing! The communication as we secured their beautiful home was so personal and always so prompt. Even when I had a million questions, we not that many but probably more than most.
We felt blessed, and at home in the beautiful setting of South Fork Colorado, thank you for hosting our family as we celebrated the marriage of our daughter and her husband and family
We take an annual trip with four high school friends to enjoy the mountains and specifically for fly fishing and climbing one or more of Colorado is 14,000 foot peaks. This beautiful house in South Fork fit the bill perfectly. We pulled more than 30 trout from the river right behind the house over the course of the week. We climbed Handies Peak, an easy and beautiful drive from the house. The house was perfect for us, each guy had his own bedroom and the house had everything we needed. It was immaculately clean when we arrived and the owner was easy to contact and very responsive. Highly recommended.
We had a great experience in this house with our two families. Having the two master bedrooms downstairs was very convenient. All of the kids stayed upstairs. The house was very clean when we got there. The house is in a beautiful location with the river right behind the house. We enjoyed the fire pit one night. There are currently not many neighbors around so we had a nice and quiet stay. We skied at Wolf Creek and went sledding just around the ski area. We also took a trip to Creede and took a hike at Alder Creek that is close to the golf course in town. The kitchen in the house was nice and big and we cooked all of our meals there. The bathrooms were also very nice and spacious with lots of closet room too. We really enjoyed our spring break in this new house.
Great location, great property. We saw deer and a bear from the porch. Everything was super nice and close to Southfork. We had a great time and the owners were easy to work with.
Our family lives in Texas but our hearts are firmly in the mountains of Both of us (Sujata and Jayant) are IT professionals living in Texas. We have two wonderful boys. We love skiing, hiking, biking, camping and spending time in nature. We visited South Fork on multiple family vacations and fell in love with it. In addition to the outdoors, we love the charm of small towns and friendly neighbors - in fact, the biggest selling point of South Fork for us was that it is far from any major airport! We finally built this home so our family could enjoy the great outdoors of Colorado. South Fork also takes the pleasure of Working From Home to new heights. Thanks to excellent fiber connectivity, we can work productively without having to take vacation. And our children cannot get enough of all the activities that South Fork and its surrounding areas have to offer. We are delighted to host your family so you too can enjoy our home in this picturesque wonderland that is South Fork!
Our family loves quiet, scenic vacation spots far from large airports and loud, boisterous crowds. We have rented homes in South Fork many times and loved it more and more each time. Every trip, we dreamt of owning a home here and now we do! This piece of paradise boasts a huge riverfront lot for fishing, rafting, or picnics, incredible vistas in every direction, hiking in the Rio Grande forest, and skiing at Wolf Creek pass.
