About this property
Heart Quest Retreat in beautiful Ridgway Colorado
This is a newly remodeled spacious guest apartment on the garden level of our home. It has a private entrance with all the modern conveniences in a rustic mountain décor. The main living area looks out of three big picture windows providing lots of light that overlook a meadow and garden where an array of wildlife can appear and one can sit out and take in nature or have dinner and grill. This guest apartment is on the ground level of our flat log cabin home but with all the privacy of your own home and space with a walk out flagstone garden. A greenhouse extends space off of the kitchen. This guest apartment can sleep up to 4 people with a queen bed in the bedroom and a trundle bed in the main living area sleeping two more people. There is one bathroom with a shower and off the bedroom and bathroom is a laundry area/closet with a washer and dryer for guests usage. We are 10 minutes from the town of Ridgway and 10 minutes from the town of Ouray in the valley, in a very magical, natural and private setting. We are a 40 minute drive to Telluride. The location is ideal for hiking, biking, snowshoeing, skiing, boating, fishing, golfing, ice climbing, hot springs soaking, swimming, jeeping and so much more. You can be active here with all the recreation that surrounds you or you can rest, relax, heal, and meditate for as long as you like in the peacefulness of the wilderness here...

Excellent stay! Very remote, peaceful, and beautiful. Large very nice rooms feels like you're staying with family. The hostess Sky is very nice and very helpful. Restaurant on location also. Local Hotspot they have bingo and little concerts and karaoke but are all wrapped up and quiet at 9pm. Highly recommend
We spent a lovely weekend here in July 2023. Pat & Teri were so welcoming and the apartment was just right for us. A well-appointed kitchen and a relaxing view from the living room. We plan to return when we are back in the area.
Terri and Pat were awesome. Beautiful location and very tranquil. If you are looking for peace and quiet in a scenic landscape this is the spot for you. I would definitely recommend.
Better than advertised. We loved sitting on the sofa looking out the 3 floor to ceiling windows. Everything you need is there including a grill on your own little patio. The hosts are friendly and gracious.
We really enjoyed our stay in Pat and Teri's apartment! It was perfect for us and certainly met it's 10.0 VRBO rating from other guests. It was very well equipped with everything we needed, and the furnishings were very nice and comfortable. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and some chocolates. Nice touch! The communication with the hosts was excellent, before and during the rental. We had an issue with one of the appliances, but Pat & Teri handled it swiftly and made sure we weren't inconvenienced. We used the apartment as a base for hiking in Ouray, Telluride, and Silverton, just short drives away. We also enjoyed the town of Ridgway, especially the Floating Lotus Brewery and True Grit Cafe. Pat and Teri are both very nice people, and we really enjoyed our chats with them. We stay in a lot of short-term vacation rentals and this one is a true gem. If we come back to this area, we will certainly try to stay here again. Thanks again for your hospitality, Pat and Teri!
Teri and Pat are amazing hosts! They make you feel at home. The property is well maintained and on a beautiful piece of property. The living space is absolutely perfect with everything you need plus more. We will be returning someday and will definitely try and rent here again.
A wonderful place to stay! We enjoyed the peace and serenity of this place. The wildlife was fascinating to watch through the big glass windows. Everything was very clean and inviting. We would love to come stay again!
Beautiful location and friendly, helpful on site owners. Apartment is nicely decorated and perfect for a couple or small family. Located in a quiet area, not too far from Ridgway. Everything you would want for a mountain get away.
Teri and Pat (the hosts) are simply wonderful people. My son and I stayed for 4 nights, and there wasn't a thing I would change about the property. It's very peaceful, and the apartment is beautiful. We participated in activities in Ouray, Ridgway, and Telluride, and the property is only a 5 minute drive to 550, so it's easy to hop on the main roads to get where you need to go. We would definitely stay again.
Beautiful, peaceful property perfect for a getaway!
My friend and I met up here and had a lovely weekend. The property has been really lovingly renovated and furnished, is in a beautiful little spot that's close enough to town to make it an easy drive but far enough away to be able to soak in the nature. The kitchen is really nicely provisioned with everything you need to cook a lovely dinner as well!
Just a perfect spot with lovely hosts!!
We were jaw dropped as we drove up to this place- the beauty was incredible! The space was gorgeous and clean. Lovely hosts! We will def be back- hopefully soon!
Location is ideal to get both to Ouray and then over to Telluride (45 min drive). I thought the place was great, and Teri & Pat went out of their way to make me feel welcome. Thanks!

We had a wonderful stay in Ridgway/Ouray. The guest apartment is beautiful, spacious and perfect for a trip to the beautiful mountains. Hiking is nearby and you can bike right out to the gravel roads to Ouray and Ridgway. Pat and Teri are wonderful hosts and do everything they can to ensure a great trip. Highly recommend.

We loved our stay at Heart Quest! This property provided the best of both worlds; we were a short drive from town and stunning attractions then at the end of the day returned to this tranquil, well appointed apartment. Teri and Pat were gracious hosts and we are thankful for their warm hospitality. We look forward to returning.
Thank you Teri and Pat for your local recommendations and for sharing your home with us.
Heart Quest Retreat was just what my wife and I needed. For a couple, it had plenty of room and was very comfortable . The location was beautiful and and very convenient to access either Ridgeway or Ouray. Terri and Pat was very accommodating, gracious and respected our privacy. Thank you Terri and Pat for being wonderful hosts. When we visit this area again, Heart Quest will be our first choice.
This apartment is so clean and welcoming. The owners are extremely nice and personable. Bed is comfortable and also the pullout daybed was perfect for our kids. It really was the perfect place for our family to stay. Lots of food/condiments/coffee for use. Water pressure in shower was great. Nice sitting area outside to enjoy the beautiful view and weather. We will be staying here again if we come to the area.
If ou don't desire a nicely furnished, peaceful, convenient location you shouldn't book this place. Further, another couple of reasons why you shouldn't book this place is the owners are so nice and easy to work with, and the view of the valley is breathtaking. So in concluding this review, any normal visitor has got to be crazy not to stay here.
This property is situated in an absolutely serene location: amid mountain views with complete privacy, seclusion and BLISSFUL QUIET.
The apartment is spotless, and is even prettier than the very accurate photos. It is also fully equipped with both necessities as well as TREATS!
The location is so convenient to both Ridgway and Ouray restaurants, bars, and markets. The drive to Telluride is about 45 minutes, scenic, and best done in daylight.
While enjoying wine on the sweet patio, we enjoyed a visit from some turkeys. Seriously: real turkeys!
Overall this is an amazingly great vacation home in an amazingly beautiful setting.
Pat and Teri have a beautiful rental with lots of natural light, a well stocked kitchen, comfortable queen bed, and a beautiful setting. Staying in Ridgway gave us access to Ouray and Telluride and their place is outside of the city, with a multitude of wildlife sightings. If you are looking for a comfortable place to stay, this is it! Pat and Teri are full of knowledge about the area, if you want suggestions and are also very respectful of giving space as well. Thanks so much for offering such a beautiful place for us to enjoy!
