About this property

Quiet vacation house on forested property in Ouray

Enjoy the best of beautiful Ouray and the surrounding wilderness at our vacation house that is within Ouray city limits but sits on a forested lot overlooking the Uncompahgre River. The river, and the river trail, can be accessed at the end of our driveway. The Ouray hot springs pool is a 15 minute walk from our house along the river trail. Our dining room looks out on Gold Hill where snow melt creates a waterfall in spring and early summer. Relax on our front patio in front of a nice fire or light up the bar-b-que and dine outside in the shadow of the San Juan Mountains. Shop and recreate in Ouray and return to a quiet home in the woods where deer often wander through the yard.

Description;

- three comfortable bedrooms sleep 7 people (1 queen upstairs, 1 bunk bed with twin up top and queen underneath upstairs, 1 queen downstairs).

- two bathrooms (upstairs and downstairs)

- washer and dryer

- Roku streaming TV service including Sling TV and Netflix(48' flat screen in living room, 25' in downstairs bedroom) and wireless internet

- coffee maker, Keurig, toaster, microwave

- gas fireplace

- ceiling fans throughout the house

- Because some of us have severe dog and cat allergies, we do have a strict no-pets policy. Our housekeepers will report any violations and guests will assessed a daily fee retroactive for their stay, plus extra cleaning fees, and fees for any damage the pet may have caused.

Great Views
We flew up for a winter trip with the family. The house was great. Lots of great and lots to do in the town and close to many other towns. The driveway can get a little slick in the winter so definitely recommend 4wd if staying in the snow/icy times.

Wonderful Home
We enjoyed the home both inside and out. Loved the yard and outdoor seating and fire pit for evening relaxation and hanging out with family. Inside was spacious with a wonderful kitchen table and view. Peaceful and quiet location close to downtown and activities. Carl was wonderful and helpful. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Quiet and Comfortable
A clean, nice and great location house. The picnic table in the photos has been replaced by a new table with 6 metal chairs with cushions. Great for outdoor dinning. Just relaxing outdoors was very enjoyable. The charcoal grill was great for cooking. The house has everything needed except for a small caveat. Since we spent 2 weeks here we cooked most of our meals and the non stick skillets were so bad even bacon stuck to them. There replacement would make cooking perfect. The garage made it nice to keep our vehicle in.

Convenient location with mountain view
The property is close to trailheads, the river, hot springs, and Ouray shops, but still feels private and has a view of the mountains surrounding Ouray. It is a great base for exploring the San Juans and we would stay here again.

Beautiful Mountain Home
We all loved this house! It is close to the center of Ouray but in a quiet location with woods behind and a fabulous view from the front yard. The house was so comfortable and very clean as well. We will definitely book this location again on a future trip to Ouray.

loved the San Juan mountains
The location was great and as described: close enough to town but away enough as well. We enjoyed the San Juan mountains and had a great time. However, I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the house...very dusty, floor sticky in some spots, bedding wrinkled when turned down, appearing as if it was slept in and not washed. When I proceeded to wash it, I found the mattress cover to be stained as well as 2 of the pillows...need replacing(?). We also found the bath towels to be dingy, slightly stained, barely folded and appeared to be thrown into the cabinet. Also, the sofa appeared to be pieced together with new fabric seat cushions on a leather sofa, which kept sliding forward and off the frame when we sat on them. I did communicate these issues with the manager and eventually heard from the owner, who stated if anything needed replacing they would do so and that they would definitely speak to their housekeeper regarding the issues mentioned. I am aware of difficulties managing a VRBO and I was grateful for his reply. I hope that those improvements will be in place for the next rentors as the locations was great, the bed was comfortable and we did overall enjoy the stay.

Amazing views and location
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house has a few items that need fixing (bedroom heater, closet door) and the cleaning crew did miss some things, but all-in-all, the property is as described. The view from the front yard is amazing and it's an easy walk to town. I would recommend staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Carl Cockle

Host profile image
We are two brothers who live with our families in Southern California. Our parents retired to this part of Colorado and we have visited them every year since then. They own an antique store on Main St. in Ouray called RB Horse Trader and would love to have you stop by and say hello.

Why they chose this property

Over the years we have been overwhelmed by the natural beauty of this area and the quaintness and hospitality of Ouray so this year we purchased this house so that we would have a place to stay for years to come. Ouray and the surrounding area has so much to offer. You can hike, jeep, and climb until you are exhausted or you can just sit down and watch the aspen shimmer in the breeze.

What makes this property unique

We love this property because it is so close to the amenities of town and yet you can also enjoy a bit of seclusion. Our property runs about 100 feet up the hill behind the house. If you hike up a bit you will catch glimpses of wild roses and deer. The dining room has windows that stretch from end to end giving an unobstructed view of the dramatic canyon walls.
