Pleasant Stay

Property was exactly as described and we enjoyed our stay. Had a beautiful sunset and enjoyed sitting on the porch having breakfast and coffee in the morning. Owner very responsive to questions when checking in. Great spot to use as a launching point to the north rim of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Would definitely stay here again if in the area in the future.

A snafu on my part brought us to the property a day early. Jackie was utterly gracious, and thank heavens the property was available. We had a lovely stay and appreciated the comfortable hospitality.
