Beautiful area

Property was located in a beautiful area. the remodel of the barn was well done and loved the wood burning heater. It kept the space warm and reminded me of my childhood making sure ours was well stocked. Very peaceful and quiet area. Would love to see it in the summer months.

Restful Mountain Retreat

Our family spent 4 days at The Barn and it was just what we needed. The open space and proximity to the river were awesome for us and our 2 kiddos to enjoy outdoor fun. We will remember Chris and his hospitality when we return to Pagosa.

Do it, Book it!

Wow- this location was everything we wanted. My husband and 2 fur babies needed a weekend to recharge and relax and that’s exactly what Chris’ place afforded. I loved the coziness of the cabin, how spacious it was and all the fun wall hangings (there’s a beautiful quilt hung up in the main bedroom!). Chris himself is a giving and just wonderful person. Upon arriving at our location we were pleasantly surprised to see the wood stove already had kindling and log in there ready to be lit. This act of kindness is just who Chris is. We made delicious roast beef Sammies, had wonderful coffee in the morning and spent the evening sewing and cuddled on the fireplace. I’ve already sent this location to my closest friends! Chris, thank you for making us feel like family and opening your home to us, we will return!

Fun little spot

We enjoyed our stay and really liked the house. Its a nice quaint size with a modern feel. The hummingbirds were fun to watch zip around the place and it was very quiet at night. We would love to come back to do more fishing off the river and to hear more of Chris (the owner) stories!

Summer Vacation

The property is beautiful and very well kept. We had a wonderful time! My boys swam in the river every day we were there and absolutely loved it! Our entire stay was amazing and Chris is an awesome host. My little dog loved the house and going down to the river as well as getting to run around and see Chris everyday. We cant wait to go back!

HOME AWAY FROM HOME

My wife and I with our new puppy loved it!!! The barn is one of a kind. Chris had the lawn mowed and welcomed us like family. He is more than willing to give you your space but once you meet him you catch yourself taking all of his time. We had great conversations. The creek and his swimming hole were very nice, but with the new puppy we spent more time in his back yard. It rained both nights we were there the sleep was fantastic. We explored the area for a half a day, but mostly spent the time at the barn. We will definitely book another stay next year, but for more days. We appreciate the beauty of the barn and the area. THANK YOU CHRIS!!!!

Peaceful Hide-A-Way.

We spent 5 nights there - it was perfect. Loved the "Barn". Clean, cozy & so peaceful. Its only a short walk to the river - the sound of the rapids makes you want to take a nap. Loved the views also. Perfect place for a picnic. Chris is an excellent host, so kind & accommodating. We will let our friends know about this little hide a way. Thank you Chris for a wonderful stay. Bob & Liz

Amazing!

There is so much to rave about I do not even know where to start! The views are breathtaking, the Barn had everything we needed, we enjoyed the River so much, and Chris was an amazing host! Added bonus was watching all the wildlife every evening (the Hummingbirds are great entertainment). Great place to relax and recharge! Chris, thank you for letting us stay!

Great relaxing dog friendly vacation!

Everything was just as advertised. Peaceful, relaxing, private, clean, beautiful setting. Chris is a Hoot. He is available if you have any questions or need anything and he gives you all the space and privacy you want. Very dog friendly, Vita, my Czech Shepherd, loved Chris and his friends. Located a few minutes outside Pagosa. Perfect location to go in any direction out on day trips. Great Direct TV, WiFi, and cell with Wifi all were exceptional for a rural area. We have been staying at VRBO for years and Chris is definitely the best host we have ever met. We couldn't have asked for anything better than this, it was an excellent vacation! We will definitely be back. Cheryl and Vita

Just what the doctor ordered...

We had a great time, just not a long enough stay. Chris was a fabulous host and the conversations over hunting was icing on the cake. The cabin was perfect for what we needed and the location provided for the relaxation we were looking for.....sitting by the river while soaking up some late Fall sunshine took relaxation to another level. There were ALL positives and NO negatives for our visit and we definitely plan on visiting again. Thanks Chris !
