Ridgway, Colorado
Spacious 3bed/2bath home perched above the mighty Uncompahgre River. Take a stroll down by the river, or over to the Ridgway State Park less than a half mile away. The town of Ridgway is 3 miles away, where shops and restaurants abound. Telluride is a convenient 45 min away and Ouray is only 10 minutes to its hot springs and adventures!
This property makes an excellent base camp for many activities, especially hunting during autumn. Convenient access to units 62 and 65. Plenty of parking for trailers, atv’s, utv’s, etc.
Plenty of wildlife to watch right at the property. Bald eagles arrive late September/early October for the fall salmon run from the Ridgway reservoir up the uncompahgre river. The eagles stay around until late November/early December. Fun to watch them hunt right from the hot tub!!
This house has an attached lock off apartment, otherwise known as an additional dwelling unit (ADU). The owner occupies this ADU when he is not traveling for work. There is absolutely no shared spaces. The only place with interaction would be in the driveway/yard. This basically provides an on site property manager to help with any issues that may arise.
We really enjoyed our trip! It was perfect.
Place has everything you need. Really enjoyed the walk down to the river, hot tub, and views from the living room. Will definitely be back!
Excellent
From the beginning communication with our host was excellent. He was responsive to all inquiries and accessible by phone and text. When we had car trouble, he helped, he provided sleds, advice about the area and kept the hot tub spotless. House is well located for winter activities-skiing and sledding in Ouray and Telluride, hot springs in Ouray and Ridgway, community rec center in Montrose, Ouray Ice Park. Beautiful drive up Owl Creek Pass Rd, and million dollar highway if you are brave. Close to good restaurants and breweries but best to stock up on groceries in Montrose. Loved having the 'meadow' below the house-grandkids and dogs loved the freedom. House is large and well equipped for entertaining and fit our family of 7 well. We used two outdoor chairs to augment living room seating. Master bedroom bed was super comfy but might need mattress toppers for other two beds. Laundry room served as mud room which worked well with winter weather. Kitchen appliances in good working order and we loved the air fryer. Thanks Jay for a great CO experience!
Great host! Beautiful property. Enjoyed our stay!
We got to watch the fall colors come alive at this beautiful property. Jay is a great host and the dogs loved it. Bring coffee cups. . . . They were missing. The hot tub was a hit as was the wall of windows looking at the San Juan’s. Great internet too. Thanks Jay - we will be back.
Beautiful views from the front and back porch.
Waking up, watching the sun come up at the lake every morning was wonderful. We saw a bald eagle on two of our three mornings and that alone was amazing. The deer around the property was special as well, to connect with nature all around. The house itself is not spectacular in the materialistic way. It's older, 'in need of a remodel' and new or cleaned carpet would be a bonus. The patio itself needs some work, as there are a few areas that are 'soft' or a bit in disrepair. Though many may have balked that this, it was oK for us. We don't care so much about bling, but new carpet and a more comfortable couch would be nice. We would stay here again - for the views, the quiet and the nature.
Used as a base for a family vacation. Rafted in Durango, took a mountain Jeep tour, hiked and swam at Ridgway Park, and enjoyed the hot tub.
This was a special place. Great views etc. What really made it super special was Jason the host. He went above and beyond to assure we had a fabulous time. What an amazing guy.
