This beautiful space, the setting, the views- all beyond words! Nancy and Tom- we cannot thank you enough for providing an absolutly wonderful "round house" for our vacation! We enjoyed every minute of our stay!It was wonderful meeting you both.
A jewel. Nancy and Tom were wonderful hosts and the cabin was just what we were looking for. It was a beautiful location, off the beaten path, close to so many things we wanted to do, and the cabin was just perfect. We had the most wonderful time there and hope we can come back again soon.
We had such an amazing stay at the Enchanted Retreat. The deck and views are wonderful, the home had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. We look forward to coming back!
We wanted to get away for a quiet week and it was exactly what was needed. A beautiful, comfortable, well-kept home on a very large piece of land far away from the noise and commotion of every day life. Wonderful scenery from every side; trails to hike, and stars to watch ... wildlife, it has it all. Mostly blessed peace! Thank you!
Welcome to serenity. This property is custom built in a setting that is gloriously private.
The hosts have anticipated their guests every need. Our experience was a 10 out of 10!

We keep returning to this beautiful home situated in the most incredible spot. The views are second to none, and the house is an architectural masterpiece that is absolutely immaculate. Nancy, the host, is a generous, kind person, and has stocked every drawer, closet, and cabinet with everything anyone would use to cook well and be comfortable. Thank you for sharing your amazing home!
Beautiful custom home with detailed craftsmanship.
Peaceful setting with Amazing sunrise (mountains) and sunset (lake) views.
Central location for day trips: Canyon Lands, San Juan Skyway, Mesa Verde, Canyon of the Ancients.
Gracious hosts Tom & Nancy.
Thank You for a Wonderful week ~ we hope to visit again soon! Don & Karen
This was our second visit to Enchanted Retreat and it was like coming back to enjoy an old friend. We love it here. We purposely set our intentions on finding peace, solitude and relaxation. Nancy and Tom created a space, a retreat where all this is possible with the luxury of a fine built custom home on BEAUTIFUL acreage! It is truly a magical place. One must experience it to understand. Warmth, love and kindness is ever present.
We really enjoyed our stay, it was one of the highlights of our trip! The house was clean and comfortable, and we loved having dinner on the deck overlooking the meadow and mountains, watching the sunset (Zuma Foods has great prepared food to go). It was also a great location for going to Mesa Verde and Telluride.
We had a wonderful time staying at this place. We met the hosts who were very friendly and gave us the key and we were off and running. We would come here again as we enjoyed our stay and the lovely relaxing views.
This house is beautifully situated to take advantage of the surrounding scenery. It offers a 360-view of the spectacular 4 Corners area. It is also very thoughtfully furnished for guests' comfort and convenience.
This was an amazing place to stay, owners were great to work with and everything needed to make this a fabulous vacation was in this home and area. We hope to come back again in a few years.
We stayed at Enchanted Retreat for 5 nights and loved it! My favorite part was sitting on the deck, admiring the views and watching birds come to the feeder.
The property had everything we needed. I would happily stay there again!
Everything about the house, the views and the hosts was perfect. The forethought and planning that went into the Enchanted Retreat made for a 5 star experience.
We found this property to be perfect in all ways. The scenery was amazing, very comfortable living space, lots of privacy and lots of places to explore on the property. Tom and Nancy are excellent hosts, they have thought of everything to make for a enjoyable and relaxing stay at Enchanted Retreat.
This was the perfect place for my wife and I during our visit to Mesa Verde National Park. It was just right for two people with every thing we needed to come back to after visiting the park and other great places in the area. We highly reccommend it to anybody visiting the area.
Beautiful construction with outstanding views from all rooms. Birds at the feeders, flowers by the deck, covered pergola with very comfortable chairs on expansive deck. Owner/hosts helpful and available. Wifi is available, but is not secure. Great stay. Highly recommended!
Amazingly tranquil location. Lots of natural beauty and wildlife. Close to so many things to do. The night sky on clear nights is amazing. We saw things we have never seen before. We now know for sure we are not alone.
We wholeheartedly agree with all of the previous five star ratings! Truly the Enchanted Retreat was designed, built, and furnished by craftsmen and artists. It is immaculately clean and maintained. Because it is on 95 acres it is so peaceful and quiet with a magnificent night sky. We are already planning our next trip.
