There are three cabins on the property, each one giving you your own space, fire pit, and outdoor mountain escape

Great Getaway

This was a tremendous treasure to find. We enjoyed the location's proximity to the town of Pagosa, the beautiful view of the river, and the hikes around the property. The cabin was comfortable, clean, and we had everything we needed. The owners were also friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back.

Perfect get-away for nature lovers

My partner and I stayed here with our dog and had an amazing time exploring the property, going down to the river, and hanging with Richie, the dog that lives on the property! I think Richie deserves a special shout-out… he led us to the river, hung out with us on the porch, and was just the cutest and most incredible little adventure buddy. For any rockhounds out there, this is the perfect place to find agates and chalcedony… either down on the San Juan river or 20 minutes over at Wolf Creek pass. Overall, I totally recommend booking here for an escape from every-day life!

Great Pond and River Setting

We booked this property based of amenities, pond and river setting and they were beautiful and easy walk. Got great pictures of deer crossing river, muskrats, ducks and geese and of course Otis and Rictchie were the best. We also booked based on the cleanliness and washer and dryer as described on our booking confirmation. Were disappointed in number of spider webs around kitchen and front room ceiling to wall areas. Not new. The floating floor in front room was parted at entrance and could pinch feet if you did not wear shoes. Overall a good place to stay but needs maintenance and information updated. We did book far in advance and later read about floor issue from last year.

Pictures do not due it justice

The pictures do not do this listing justice. Views are amazing. The property dog aka Rickie/ tour guide walked us to the river and the pond he knew exactly where we wanted to go. He even walked us back to our door. Our stay was laid back and quiet, we were at the cabin at the top of the hill. Book your stay now if you are looking for a quite stay in a cabin.

A Great Spring Break!

I stayed with my kids during spring break. There was easy access to Wolf Creek, Pagosa Springs, and we even took a day trip to Durango! The house was cozy and we enjoyed our time inside during cold days cooking food, watching movies and playing games. The property is beautiful and we loved walking down to the river. The view out of the kitchen and living room is fantastic!

Beautiful and Peaceful

A lovely place to stay overlooking the San Juan river. It is a working ranch, and not a dude ranch. There are nice places to walk your dog, and good river access. Our cabin had wonderful views of the river, and mountains. Close to town.

Lovely place

Location is great, however, the cabin needs more cleaning and more heart to it. Outside furniture is in terrible shape, pillows were torn. A fan would be nice in the cabin to help the heat in the day, and the second bed is an air mattress to sleep on. Besides that, wonderful place to fish and walk with the dogs.

Great Place to Celebrate 30 Years

We spent 4 nights spending a mini vac to celebrate our 30th anniversary. It is a fantastic place. Situated just five minutes from downtown Pagosa Springs, it affords much privacy. The ranch is beautiful with each of the cabins far enough away from the others to give the feel that you are the only ones here. One of the two ranch dogs, Ritchie, became a quick friend. If you're a dog lover, he will give you your fill of loving. This place will remain one of my favorites!

Stunning Property

We would definitely stay here again, although disappointed with inaccuracies in the description. There is only one bed. The other is an air mattress to be set up and taken down daily if you want to utilize the living area of the cabin, and don't mind sleeping at floor level. There was a gas grill but it didn't work and owner did not return our call for assistance. They were very nice in passing and take immaculate care of the ranch. The river was not accessible and that too was disappointing, but it offered a beautiful view while dining at the table. The lake provided great fishing action with breath taking sunsets and views. We would prefer two actual beds and might look into one of the other two cabins next time. With only three cabins, it enhances the get away and adds to the comfort of your surroundings. PS: I know a guy who can replace and fix the floor (wink, wink). We had a great time and loved our stay at Sunset Ranch.
