License number: 2025-STR-1090. There is nothing like a riverfront escapade to leave all of your worries behind and just focus on resting and having fun! This rustic, river-view home is conveniently located on the banks of Rio Grande, within walking distance of several restaurants and convenience stores, and two and a half miles from downtown South Fork. The charming town of South Fork is the perfect home base for Colorado adventures, including hunting, golfing, rafting, fishing, skiing, hiking, ATVing, road biking, snowmobiling, and much more. Revel in the hundreds of miles of off-road vehicle trails nearby that offer you countless outdoor opportunities, all while being surrounded by 1.8 million acres of the lush Rio Grande National Forest. There are plenty of other enticing areas to explore too, such as Wolf Creek Ski Area less than 20 miles away, Rio Grande Golf Club and Resort not even four miles away, Pagosa Hot Springs about 40 miles away, and Great Sand Dunes National Park 60 miles from your holiday home. For scenic views closer to you, enjoy a warm campfire on the property next to the river.

This budget-friendly home away from home features a large wrap-around deck facing the river with plenty of seating and a second-floor balcony overlooking the backyard. Inside, this snowbird-friendly home boasts a classic rustic aesthetic with wooden floors and ceilings, exposed wood beams, and stylish wooden furniture. The cozy living area provides you with a wonderful spot to unwind and relax - curl up on your favorite sofa and stream the series or movie of your choice on the smart TV with cable and streaming services. If you are not in the mood for watching TV, you can always pull out any of the board games provided and gather either at the coffee table or any of the two additional tables for an exciting game night. The classic wood stove with a gorgeous rock wall behind it will keep you nice and toasty during your stay. Don't be shy and show off your cooking skills in the well-appointed kitchen - complete with all stainless steel appliances and sparkling countertops, you will have everything you need to whip up savory treats and homemade meals for everyone.

The first floor of this splendid retreat offers one bedroom and a laundry area with a washer/dryer. The other two bedrooms are located upstairs. One of the bedrooms features a smart TV and plenty of natural light, while the other bedroom has a convenient desk and a private balcony.

    The property was good, and was what I expected. The kitchen was fully stocked, and the outside griddle was nice. There were two good lounge chairs for sitting by the river. The inside was clean, but the outside had a tremdous amount of spider webs on it (not a problem, but also not clean). There was also a mouse in the house that came out a few times, but the property managers took care of it within 24 hours of my contacting them about the mouse.

    Rustic cabin in a beautiful setting. We enjoyed the property very much. The cabin could use some updated carpet and found a few things in need of repair, but overall did not take away from the experience.

    We were cozy and felt at home in the house. Great sleeping arrangements, and plenty of bathroom space for a family of 5. The living room was comfy and we enjoyed lots of family time. The kitchen was well stocked! We cooked a lot. No dishwasher which was inconvenient since being on vacation, doing so many dishes was not great. The house was very creaky, and loud… you could hear conversations upstairs from the bedroom downstairs. Was a little bummer. All in all it was a great stay. Lots and lots of snow. The driveway was never plowed though… which was a little concerning bc it snowed so much. Luckily our large car handled it well.
