Nice and relaxing
Came to visit family with our dogs in tow. Loved having a place close to them that allowed pets. Also loved waking up and taking them on a walk down the road and letting them run off leash, since the road has no other houses on it past the site.

Home Away from Home
Staying at Norma and Dan's VRBO was amazing. They created a home away from home for us. We are so comfortable. They were right next door and very responsive and friendly. We will plan on staying there on our next trip to the area. Anyone who stays here will be pleased!

Perfect weekend getaway!
Dan and Norma’s farm cabin was the perfect place for our weekend getaway! They were so kind and their place had everything you needed! The views from the balcony are amazing and I highly recommend watching sunset from there! 10/10 recommend! We also visited Mesa Verde National Park which was incredible. Tours of the cliff dwellings are a must!

Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay. Dan and Norma are super friendly and great hosts. We visited the Moab area, Durango and Silverton, and Telluride. Perfect location for all. Cabin was super nice and clean! Can’t wait to go back.

Second visit at Dan & Norma's. The cabin is on their farm, a peaceful place where you feel home the minute you settle in. Enjoy wonderful sunsets everyday. The kitchen is well equipped and so is the bathroom. Norma will make sure you have everything you need

Great place!
Very nice cabin with beautiful views of the alfalfa fields & sleeping Ute mt. beyond. I was fascinated by Dan's operation, he really has it down to a T. Would have liked to tag along with him for a day to get an up close look but did not want to intrude. Cabin was spotless, Norma left a very nice welcoming gift, very kind. Perfect location for riding mt. roads & Moab. Great hosts, thank you!

Norma and Dan were gracious hosts. Their impeccably maintained cabin was our favorite place to stay during our 2 week tour of CO. It was a little taste of home away from home. We hope to return.

The cabin/cottage was cozy clean with everything you needed. (Including toothpaste/brushes shampoo etc) Location was pretty close to perfect for our plans. The host were friendly, greeted us when we were both there but otherwise left us be. Very peaceful with a couple beautiful sunsets. Bonus was the two dogs we all loved. Highly recommend!

Wanted to Stay Forever
Gorgeous surroundings. Clean, comfortable, well-appointed home. Charming hosts. And that night sky… We’ve been using VRBO since before apps were a thing. This vacation home is now our favorite! My only regret is that there were just two of us because it is very roomy. Anything we needed was already there. Great place to relax and recharge after our daily adventures.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Dan and Norma. They made us feel very welcome and included all the little amenities that made our stay very comfortable. The welcome basket of goodies was a real special treat! We really enjoyed visiting Mesa Verde and the Arches National Park.

Great stay!
Dan and Norma are wonderful hosts! This was the perfect homebase for our solar eclipse trip. We had everything we needed. It was spotlessly clean and close to Mesa Verde and Four Corners. Norma told us about the Lowry Pueblo ruins, a little hidden gem nearby. Cortez is only 15 minutes away with some fun shops and restaurants (we suggest Lounging Lizard if you like pub type food). A relaxing, peaceful stay!

Perfect weekend getaway spot
My fiance' and I stayed at this cabin for a weekend getaway and loved it. From stargazing and peaceful, quiet nights to the ease of getting around (we traveled to Mesa Verde and Telluride), we would stay here again in a heartbeat! Also, Norma and Dan are lovely, and their dogs are so friendly. 5/5!

About the host

Hosted by Dan Duncan, property owner

Host profile image
Dan grew up 7 miles northwest of current home. He is a retired pilot, who flew so he could farm and ranch. Norma retired (5/2016) after 31 years of teaching and now I quilt and try to keep up. We have lived here 23 years, lived in Montana for 12 years and Las Vegas for 11 years.

Why they chose this property

This home was originally built because our son was an officer in the Marine Corps and it was his home when he came home for extended times. He now comes back a few times a year and our extended family and friends come to stay and enjoy the privacy.

We are centrally located to many of the main attractions in Southwest Colorado. The land we are located on have a view of the Sleeping Ute Mountain, the La Plata range, Blue Mountains and Lizzard Head.

What makes this property unique

You will love the view, solitude, and the stars at night.
