Wonderful spot right on the Gunnison River

Our visit was with other family who are local to the Delta area. Access to the property is a bit tricky but the host was extremely helpful both before and during our stay. Directions to the property on VRBO website are excellent.This delightful lodge in a pretty setting exceeded our expectations by a lot. It was well stocked with most any items one would reasonably expect. We would definitely return.

Nice clean place by the river

We enjoyed this property. It is very private and right next to the river. My wife and I stayed there with three of our grown kids. It is a log house with a nice, vaulted ceiling inside. A separate dining room served well as a remote work room for some of us, and upstairs has a nice reading/sitting room area. We will visit here again. Thanks!

The Hideaway

The cabin is hidden down on the river, it's in the perfect location not to far off the main road and only a few minutes to town. It was very clean and comfortable. The perfect spot if you want to be on the river and sleep with the sound of the water flowing over the rocks. It was peaceful and relaxing. Great place to stay.

Lovely, relaxing stay by the Gunnison

This place is so lovely and relaxing! We spent time by the river fishing, reading, and enjoying the fire pit. Everyone had a wonderful time. I think the thing that makes this place extra special is way it’s stocked like a home—we found everything we needed including games and s’more sticks. Thanks for the lovely stay!

Peaceful riverfront location!

We had an amazing stay at this peaceful retreat on the Gunnison river. The pictures don’t do the cabin justice – it’s even better in person! The location was perfect for exploring many parts of Colorado. We spent some time in Delta, explored Black Canyon National Park, driving through Paonia and Hotchkiss that day, and stopped at Big B's in Paonia. Driving the Grand Mesa Scenic Byway and spending time on the Grand Mesa was absolutely beautiful, and we drove through the towns of Cedaredge and Mesa that day as well. We also drove through Ridgway to Ouray and over the Million Dollar Highway to Silverton. It's a great location for many scenic drives, especially in the fall. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a serene getaway!

neat getaway

The property was in a convenient location, close to town and easy to get to. However, the cabin still has a secluded feel to the area. The space is neat, comfortable, and has everything we could have asked for. my kids lived in the river all weekend catching crawdads. as happy as could be. The host, Ron, is kind and helpful. i would recommend this cabin to any outsider looking for getaway into nature.

Secluded but close to town

The house was beautiful and in an ideal location. You are a short drive to grocery stores and restaurants but the house’s location is private, secluded with the Gunnison river out your back door. The outdoor seating is plentiful and the fire pit was great for s’mores. Our kids had a wonderful time exploring the yard and fishing in the river. The house was more than big enough for our family of 6. We would definitely recommend this home.

Gunnison River Vacation Getaway

We had a wonderful family vacation in Delta on the Gunnison river. The cabin did not disappoint. The owners had everything you could need on the premises. If you cannot relax at this home, the problem is definitely you. Because the sound of the river and crickets put all of the busyness of life out of our minds. We drove to other lakes and other parts of the river and had success fishing. We could not have asked for more calm and peaceful vacation.

Very Nice Cabin with Great Location

We did several day trips to Black Canyon, Grand Mesa and Colorado Monument. The house was well stocked and very comfortable. There are several hummingbird feeders which we had to fill often! My only suggestion would be to add more towel hooks. Thanks for sharing your space with us!
