Twisted Cedars Ranch: Rest, Restore, Relax in mountain style.

The house is located in a beautiful are with a great view.

Excellent hosts!! Wonderful location near Mesa Verde, wonderful night sky!! Highly recommend!!

Beautiful, quiet property. I appreciated the separation from the owners home and the privacy that this creates. Very close to Mesa Verde and many other local attractions. A wonderful place to stay.

I was very pleased with the property. It was clean and the hosts responsive to any need. They thought of a lot of details--hanging a flashlight by the door in case you came in late at night and couldn't see the key pad. A medical emergency kit. Eggs and butter in refrigerator in case you didn't have time to shop. I enjoyed their hummingbird feeder outside the door. Very peaceful

The owners' care and foresight for traveller

Private, beautiful country setting. Everything was comfortable and attractive. Very close to Mesa Verde National Park. Not far from town of Cortez for shopping and dining.

Visiting in Mancos for our daughter's 50th bday bash, we found Twisted Cedars to be a lovely respite. The cozy unit was relaxing and our hosts were at the ready when we needed anything. We found homemade zucchini nut bread as well as a pizza in the freezer in case we'd arrived late. Sitting outside was a pleasure to see the distant Mesa Verde mountains. Simply lovely...

If Heather hasn’t thought of something, you don’t need it! Heather treats this cabin as if it’s her own home - she has thought of everything! An incredibly peaceful place, with kind and thoughtful hosts! We will definitely return!!

Every thing was great would definatly stay here again!

Beautiful, quiet surroundings. Within a few miles of Mesa Verde National Park. House has everything g needed with a full kitchen and separate bedroom. Loved the stay!

Very clean, well stocked and quiet. Very close to Mesa Verde NP. We really enjoyed our stay.

It was a great little cabin!! Love it!! The bread and the humming birds!! Loved our stay!

5/5 – Peaceful retreat just minutes from Mesa VerdeOur stay at Twisted Cedars Ranch was absolutely excellent—peaceful, scenic, and truly off the beaten path in the best way. Just a short, beautiful 10-minute drive down a private dirt road (less than a mile from the entrance to Mesa Verde), this place felt secluded yet completely accessible to everything we came for.The one-bedroom unit was exceptionally clean and well thought-out—comfortable for both relaxing and cooking. My wife and I made full use of the functional kitchen for daily breakfasts and quiet dinners, and the views from the property were breathtaking. Every morning, we were treated to a stunning sunrise, and the tranquility of the ranch made it feel like time slowed down.We were especially grateful to meet our kind hosts, Heather and Chad, who were welcoming and respectful of our space. Their property is a hidden gem, and the quiet out there is something special you don’t easily find.Highly recommended for couples or solo travelers who appreciate nature, privacy, and being close to the wonders of Mesa Verde.

Heather and Chad were great hosts. The cottage was lovely. Clean and well equipped. We enjoyed sitting on the porch in the morning watching the sunrise and watching the many hummingbirds at the feeder. The location is convenient to Mesa Verde but away from town. Quiet and private. The gardens were wonderful to walk through and see what was growing. We enjoyed our stay so much that we extended our stay 1 night. We would definitely recommend staying here. I would stay again if we are in the area again. Five stars all around!

Was very scenic. Very comfortable.

We really enjoyed our stay. The accommodations fit our needs perfectly. We were in Colorado for a family reunion at Echo Basin so the location was close enough that it was easy to get to, but far enough away to escape from the chaos of my extended family. It made my morning to have coffee with the hummingbirds. We appreciate Heather and Chad sharing their property with us!

Cozy, well equipped cottage with great location. Comfortable furnishings. Stunning views of the La Platas from the dining table. Beautiful property. We enjoyed the garden area and the stars on clear nights. Close to Mesa Verde, Durango, and hiking. Very good restaurants nearby. Really enjoyed our stay.

Really great place. Quiet and has everything. Nice kitchen and owners are great available, but leave you alone - perfect!

The location of this cabin is perfect! From the cabin, we spent time at Mesa Verde, travelling the San Juan Skyway/Million Dollar Highway, and a day out west at Bluff UT, Valley of the Gods and Monument Valley as highlights. The directions to the cabin were spot on - we travelled in late at night and it was quite dark. We had no issues getting to the cabin and accessing it. The cabin itself was adorable and clean! It has a full kitchen that we utilized to cook during our trip. The living area, bedroom and bathroom were all excellent and served our purposes. The kitchen was stocked with cooking necessities, which we utilized during the trip. The bathroom has plenty of towels, soap and shampoo. The bedroom was adorable and had bedside tables and plenty of outlets. My favorite part is the beautiful view of the mountains. We could see the sunrise each morning, it was stunning. I felt safe on the property, which is well maintained and in a great neighborhood. We did get to meet the host, Heather, who gave us tips and points of interest to see while visiting. She was accommodating and wanted to be sure that we had everything that we needed. Overall, I would love to stay at this property again! We had a wonderful trip!

Only 10 minutes from Mesa Verde NP but on a quiet road. Loved the house. We also enjoyed seeing the owners’ garden and fairy garden!Nice touches - homemade zucchini bread on arrival. Plus eggs, butter and a pizza in case we arrived hungry!

The environment was great, the check in was easy, and we could not have stayed any closer to Mesa Verde National Park.

Great location; quiet & within minutes of Mesa Verde. Conveniently located to other multiple points of interest as well. Super clean & well stocked cabin. Perfect accommodation during travel.

What a wonderful location- not far from Mesa Verde NP but still miles away from hustle and bustle. It is such a beautiful peaceful place. We loved seeing the mountains, the stars and the birds out the windows and on the porch. The cabin itself had everything we could need and was built and decorated with great attention to detail

Nice 1 bedroom apartment with a wood stove. The wood stove really warmed up the space nicely with little effort. Owner left a pizza and some eggs in the fridge. Nice if you get in late and don’t have time for grocery shopping.

Perfect place to stay! Great hostsl and amenitie. Highly recommended

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights as we visited Mesa Verda NP. A very nice and clean accommodation that met all of our needs - full kitchen with everything needed to fix meals, good shower and comfortable bed. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. They left a loaf of zucchini (grown in their garden) bread and a bottle of champagne in the fridge with a nice note as we were celebrating our 40th anniversary. The cabin is located out in the country with no nearby neighbors visible from the cabin. It's about a 10 minute drive on a gravel road to the main road and maybe 5 minutes away from the entry gate to Mesa Verde. We loved the sweeping mountain views and watching the sunsets and sunrises. We highly recommend the Twisted Cedars cabin if you like a peaceful and relaxing environment. We would gladly return. And we give it 6 stars out of 5 with 5 being the highest!

This is a beautiful and very quiet place out in the country! Loved the amenities like the oven, Keurig, and wood-burning stove. Clean, cozy and perfect getaway about 45 minutes from Mesa Verde. Chad and Heather were great hosts, they made the check-in and checkout processes easy and clear. Highly recommended!

peaceful, quiet, beautiful, and relaxing. close to mesa verde national park ,and san juan mts. Unable to contact host. Highly recommended, especially in the fall.

Great stay just outside of Mesa Verde. Property located on the side of a ridge about 3 miles off the hard surface. Very quiet location. Enjoyed watching the Harvest moon rise from the east. Cottage is clean and comfortable and well equipped, as we like to cook in. Thank you for sharing!

Great location, so close to Mesa Verde! Clean, quiet, well kept up, with everything you need for a comfortable stay!

It is about 15 minute drive to Minos, where my daughter lives, but it’s a nice neighborhood and a beautiful property and the hosts were excellent!

OK

The perfect place to stay while we explored the Mesa Verde National Park. The property was located very near the park entrance. Beautiful views of the surrounding area and very charming. The hosts keep this place well maintained and organized. The hosts put a lot of effort into you have an amazing time here. My wife and I enjoyed our 3rd wedding anniversary while visiting and we were surprised that the hosts had a bottle of champagne and a note waiting for us in the fridge when we arrived. We would definitely recommend visiting this property.

It was a comfortable place to stay at. We also enjoyed watching the hummingbirds.

Everything was great and it was as quiet as I had hoped. The only thing that was unexpected was being right next door to the owners home. I had in my mind that we were going to be more secluded
