It was ok
One of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed!! This place is a little slice of heaven nestled in a little magical pocket of Mancos! So quiet, peaceful and serene. Highly recommended!!!
This is a great place to get away and hide out. Off the beaten path but convenient enough to get everywhere (ruins, Durango, Silverton, OHV Trails, etc.), great wood cabin, fishing pond that is Stocked up and everything you need is provided. Lee and Peggy are great host. Really enjoyed talking to both of them. If you are wanting a place in Colorado this is it!!!! You won’t be disappointed.
Beautiful setting with lots of natural beauty including birds. Super quiet and off the beaten path completely. Not too far from civilization tho. Exceptional and very helpful and gracious hosts. Plenty of space and amenities. Would definitely stay again. Thanks for a wonderful place to stay.
The Lakehouse is definitely off the beaten path. Very quiet with a spectacular view of the lake and distant mountains as you sit on the deck and enjoy a morning cup of coffee or evening glass. May was a great time to visit. Weather was perfect and the birds were singing. The house is equipped with everything you might need to stay for awhile. Plenty of space for relaxing and reading. Lee and Peggy gave us privacy, but were available and quick to respond to any requests. The property has other VRBO rentals and the 2 person hot tub, canoes, and garden are for everyone to share. Located close to many interesting things to see and do. Mesa Verde is just up the highway and grocery stores are about 15 minutes away. I would definitely return! If you like quiet, this is the place!
This property was large and comfortable for our family of 6, and the kitchen is equipped perfectly. Especially enjoyed fishing and canoeing the pond in the early mornings and later evenings, and caught a lot of trout and crappie. The owners are truly friendly people who are knowledgeable about the area, and our kids already miss their dog Beau. Highly recommend!
This was our second springtime stay at the Lakehouse. Willowtail Springs is magical at this time of year (late March). We had big plans for our time in Mancos, but we had a hard time pulling ourselves away from Willowtail Springs. We took daily walks with Beau (the resident dog). Or maybe it would be more correct to say that he took us for walks around the property. We enjoyed the view of Hesperus Mountain over the lake. And we watched the ever-changing variety of birds in and around the lake. At one point, there were five blue herons fishing in the lake! And we saw them catch a couple of fat fish, which was a sight to behold! Every morning and evening the lake hosted several varieties of ducks (I counted 80-some of them on a typical evening). My wife and daughters also enjoyed artist workshop days when it was windy. One final note that's worth mentioning: there's a 30 amp (~3.6 kW) RV hookup on the property that can be used to charge your electric car, which is a welcome perk given the lack of Level 3 chargers in the area.
This was a family getaway. The cabin was quiet and the property was nice. The gardens and landscape were beautiful. We had planned to hangout during our stay and utilize the lake for fishing and canoeing as part of our experience and it was a bit disappointing that we didn’t have that option because the water was so low and no one informed us prior, so somewhat deceiving. We did do the Durango to silverton train ride and that was awesome as well as somewhat close by. We made the most of it but would have appreciated communication about the lake/pond being inaccessible.
We really loved this place. It was peaceful and beautiful. The views of the lake and mountain were wonderful. I sat on the porch every morning drinking coffee with the hummingbirds and ducks. The kitchen had everything we needed for meals. My girls enjoyed the hot tub. The property owner was very responsive. The cabin itself is filled with charm, beautifully decorated, and you’re surrounded by beautiful gardens. The sunset was beautiful too. One thing to note for future travelers is that there’s not a lot of privacy since two of the bedrooms are partitioned off as opposed to rooms with actual walls. Also, I recommend checking in before it gets dark to navigate the route in more easily. We would definitely go back!
While we were pleased at the location for visiting many beautiful spot near by, it was the quiet moments sitting on the back deck overlooking the pond behind the house which brought joy and peace to our hearts
