About this property

Perfect Home for Large Family Gatherings in South Fork/Creede Colorado all year

Our comfortable and spacious hideaway is just a short drive to Wolf Creek Pass, known for 'the most snow in Colorado. Wolves' Den is a beautiful 2,375 sq. ft. two-story home with High-Speed Internet and WiFi Access while offering gorgeous views of San Juan Mountains and Rio Grande National Forest. The Rio Grande River is one block nearby. Near the Wolf Creek Ski Area, Pagosa Springs, Alamosa (Great Sand Dunes), the Historic Mining Town of Creede and the Headwaters of the Rio Grande River.

The Home is nicknamed 'The Wolves’ Den' because it allows families and friends to gather together for fun and fellowship and has five (5) bedrooms with one king, three queen, three full, and two twin beds. See more info at our website listed below.

The Master Bedroom (SoulMates) is upstairs with its own private balcony. It offers a queen-size New Zealand Pine bed with a Pillow-top Mattress and gorgeous views of the area through the large window and door that opens onto a 200 sq. ft. private balcony where you often see the deer crossing from the mountains to the riverside. Room comes complete with its own mini-fridge and sitting area to enjoy your privacy in comfort or just gaze at the awesome views out your window and off your balcony. Room has a large walk-in closet and armoire settee for your convenience.

The Downstair's Bedrooms are furnished with a king, queen, and a full-size futon bed/couch and a single bunk bed above. One room, nicknamed 'The DreamCatcher Room', has its own attached dual sink bathroom. In the closet, there are two queen-size and one twin pillow-top air mattress for sleeping five more.

Another room ('The WildLife Room') offers lots of drawer space and two closets for adults or children to store their gear.

The Study upstairs (UF's room) has been furnished with a full-size pillow top mattress, dresser and night stand. It is small, but the view out the window is breathtaking

Our latest addition is "The TreeHouse Room" with full and twin beds and a built-in entertainment center. Treehouse Room is 200 sq ft. of blue pine, wood flooring and a palisades view, especially at sunset since it faces west.

Downstairs comes complete with a WIFI and High-Speed Internet Access, Satellite TV and DVD/VCR. There are many DVDs for your enjoyment along with books, games in the front closet. For dining or playing cards and games, there are two tables and 14 chairs.

The Living Room area has a gas fireplace with a large sofa and rocker to just enjoy the view out of the many windows, watch satellite TV or a favorite movie or read a good book.

The Back Patio has a propane BBQ grill and Fireplace sitting area with a view of the mountains and National Forest.

The newly built and expanded Front Deck offers a view of Del Norte peak and often deer. The Rio Grande River is straight ahead but just out of sight.

You can visit the Historic Town of Creede and enjoy their quaint shops and dining and then travel the 16 mile Bachelor Mining Trail or attend the renowned Creede Repertory Theatre with several different live plays during the summer.

Wolf Creek Pass in southwestern Colorado forms the pristine headwaters of the Rio Grande and San Juan Rivers. Bridging the South San Juan and Weminuche Wilderness Areas, the pass is beloved for stunning vistas and ample opportunities for backcountry recreation along the Continental Divide. It is also one of the most biologically-important areas in the Southern Rockies, providing habitat and migration pathways for elk, deer, black bear and the Canada lynx.

Spring Stay 2025

The property was very spacious and open for our group. The bedrooms were spread out, no issue though. This allowed the teens to gather together as well as the adults. Big kitchen area with separate dining helped feed everyone quickly. A couple of minor issues did occur, which were addressed via Tom & Kathy promptly. Very clean and comfortable overall, and a nice place to stay.

House between South Fork and Creede

There was lots of space for our group to gather for meals, to play games, watch TV, and even to do a puzzle and to play ping pong. The beds were comfortable and there were just the right number of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group of 8.The oven, cooktop, microwave, dishwasher and clothes washer all worked great. Would have been nice to have a working drier, but we managed to air-dry everything.There are a lot of steps in the house, you really have to be careful to be safe.

Cross Country team trip

We stayed here in 2020 and it was good, and it was good this time as well. It was closer to 4.5 stars than just four, btw. The check-in didn't go perfectly due to a confused writing of the lockbox code(s). There were a FEW things not cleaned from a previous guest, but to be fair, I'm not sure we brought that up with the owners. The biggest critique is the trash issue with the store versus logistics and our schedule. That said, we liked the place and the location for drives to our runs, hikes, and drives up CO-149 north of the place.

Love Creede

All the bedrooms were fine. To many strange steps in the house. No suitable for handicapped people. Clean and everything in working condition. Location good. Didn’t like having to find someplace to drop off our trash.

South Fork Cabin for family reunion

My husband is one of 8 siblings who grew up in Santa Fe. They are scattered all over the west, so this was a perfect location to meet for a few days with some of the spouses and a few nieces and kids. The house is spacious and we had everything we needed for a great stay. We enjoyed our time together. We explored nearby Del Norte and Creede. Some of the more adventurous hiked and went fishing--it is a beautiful area.

Great place for a family reunion

Lots of room, the home is well equipped and had plenty of opportunities for skiing (30min from Wolf Creek), and other recreational activities (it is near the Rio Grande river). We recommend it.

Wolf Den

Nice accommodations. Check in time too late and check out time too early. Trash an issue. We had to check out by 9:00am. Trash was left over by past users but we set all the trash out for pick up. Was to be picked up by 9:00am. No trash truck, so we had to put all the trash back and take ours with us. Left a trashy taste in our mouths! Recommend earlier check in time and later check out time and improved trash arrangement.

Fun times

Great location in one of the most scenic places in Colorado (IMHO). Home was stocked with most everything we would have needed - was a quick trip where we brought the minimum needed so was nice to find the place well stocked with the small things. Lots of room for our group of six, quiet location near the Rio Grande for fishing, and South Fork and Creede were great places to visit.

Needed cleaning

Nice property but needed a good cleaning. Cookware needs to be replaced as well as coffee pot. There was a pizza left in the oven (maybe from previous guests) so we changed our mind on using the oven. No real access to fishing except crossing neighbors property. Beds were plentiful. Too many remotes to TV and accessories.

Great ski vacation!

Nice and spacious cabin with well equipped kitchen, that fits a big group of people. Very quiet neighborhood, surrounded by forest. Great star gazing! We skied in Wolf Creek and soaked in Pagosa springs afterwards. Those who didn't ski played ping pong. That's a fun activity. I can only imagine how nice it must be in other seasons. We liked it a lot!

About the host

Hosted by SouthForkRental.com

Host profile image
The picture is of us in front of the Rio Grande River just outside our home which we were fortunate to purchase in 2005. We love South Fork, CO where have been visiting the Wolf Creek Pass area since 1991. However, we have been taking vacations in the state of Colorado since 1977. You will love your time here.

Why they chose this property

The feeling of peace and majesty driving into the area is so comforting. We found ourselves going back year after year. We now find that it is a great place to bring family and friends or just visit by ourselves. We love the mountains of Colorado especially in the South Fork, Creede, Wolf Creek Pass area.

What makes this property unique

There are also fun activities, excellent dining, cute shops, awesome views, and wildlife galore. We hope that you will enjoy staying in our home and visiting the area as much as we do. We look forward to you coming back to visit often.

Wishing you safe travels,
South Fork Rental
