6 Reviews of Property 91039 in Ouray, Colorado

Six friends recently enjoyed this wonderful cabin. It is magical. From the rockers on the porch, you can watch and listen to the river, and with the windows open at night, the sounds of the river put you to sleep.The cabin is very comfortable - the owners have done an incredible job of making this like walking into a home. Every thing was in the cabin that we could possibly want. It is very convenient and is only a short walk into town for the springs, dinner, and shopping. A truly lovely place!!!!

This is our 4th year to return and we are already booked for next year. We tell the owners every year there is nothing else to do to make it better, then they do something else. To make it better! This year it's the wonderful rocker/gliders surely made in Colorado? and the glider in the yard. Perfect, perfect, for curling up with a book on a rainy day (inside) or just daydreaming (outside).
This year the little ones were playing barefooted in the yard, climbing up to the bench they named the "view bench", or picking raspberries on the hillside. Again, the teenagers are so happy to just hang out on the covered deck or sleep till noon in the loft, knowing they can connect with all their friends any time they want. And, again, we played Hoopla and Boggle and Rook and bananagrams around the big dining table. There is TV, but who needs it? Until next year!

We are in our last days here at the cabin ... It has been a nice experience ... I have talked to the owner twice since arriving ... The only complaint would of been the mix up with the keys when we got here ... They were to be waiting for us at the management office and were not , but that is only minor and takes away nothing from our satisfaction ... The cabin is breath taking inside and out and the owner has made sure that there is everything you would want or need in your stay in the cabin ... The selection of TV programs are minimal , but we were here on vacation and that was no problem ... The kids enjoyed the loft and both were laughing and enjoying their computers , running up and down stairs ... The beds were surprisingly comfortable and in the hot days of Ouray in the middle of July , maybe 78 degrees , you open up a couple of windows and its nice again ... We grilled out 3 times on the built in grill and set out at the side on the swing , which was nice ... The owner had just purchased new furniture before we got here and the 2 rustic log gliders in the living room are comfortable and my wife is now looking for some to put at our cabin at home ... We found them in downtown Ouray , but have bought enough souvenirs we haven't the room in the truck in going home ... Ouray is a real nice town with endless things to do and we enjoyed all the trails with our atv's ... The driveway at the cabin is challenging , but I have a King Cab truck pulling a 16' trailer , so this was my fault ... The drive and the parking area is quite large ... If bringing atv's , there is an area at the bottom of the dirve in which I could drop the trailer , so it worked out fine ... All and all I would give it a 10 and we already talked to the owner about coming back next year ...

We have rented this wonderful place for 4 years now. I can't believe I've never reviewed it....well, I can, because I truly have reluctance to have it discovered. We were looking for the quintessential cabin in the woods but with all the amenities of home and we have found it. And we get to hear the river at night and walk to the Hot Springs in less than 5 minutes, and walk to town in a few more. We sit on the deck and have our coffee in the morning. The little ones find wild strawberries on the hillside. We play board games around the huge dining table. The teenagers hang out in the loft playing their computer games. There is something for everyone--outdoor spaces, indoor spaces, open spaces, nooks and window seats, games and movies, TV if you absoluetely must have it, and always the river and the views.
Our youngest ones call it their "My-Ray House". We pull up in front and can't believe we're back. The first year we stayed a week, the second and third years we stayed for two weeks. This year we have it for three and we already know that won't be long enough. In fact, why am I reviewing this? I would rent it for the season if I could!
Riverview has every single thing you could want and much more. The response of the owners in Texas and the property managers has always been immediate and completely satisfactory. Everyone we've invited who has come to visit us wants to know when we're returning and have they been invited to join us again (Yes, there's room!). This is not a condo! This is a house in a magical setting with ambience and views (Mt. Abrams,unbelievable) and it feels like our summer home.
