Mesa Verde base

Loved this house! While it was just my husband and I, this would be great for 2 couples or a family. Beautiful view of the mountains. Easy access to town and a short distance to Mesa Verde. Great communication with the host and easy check in. A simple problem on arrival (smoke alarm battery needed changing) was taken care of within 10 minutes. Great to have someone nearby if needed. Large kitchen with everything you need. I’m not a fan of the foam mattress beds, but everything else was super comfortable. Large shower with plenty of hot water. Full sized laundry. Nice neighborhood. If you stay here, eat at Thai Cortez. Excellent food and very friendly!

Great Location/Beautiful View

The house was perfect for my family that stayed there. They said the view was great and saw some mule deer out the back patio in the mornings. Would highly recommend this house.
