Excellent stay

Very nice big place in the mountains. Definitely gets hot for a few hours in summer would suggest bringing a box fan or two for mid day but very beautiful and will be back.

Mountain Escape

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The deck overlooking the mountain was amazing and we enjoyed several wonderful meals taking in this view. The home was clean, well stocked with all of the essentials, and provided ample space for our family. It was also located in comfortable driving distance to all of the activities we wanted to take in. We were very pleased with this VRBO and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a quiet, beautiful place to stay.

Forest family fun

If you're looking for a beautiful quiet getaway from life's hustle and bustle, this is a great place to be. We enjoyed the cool mountain air and lovely hikes all over the mountain. The house was perfect for our family; cozy and comfortable. In the evening we relaxed on the deck overlooking the forest and watched the deer meander through the property. . One family member worked on the upper deck as she looked on at the forest. The property team was super responsive and friendly. It's clear the family loves their forest home. We would love to stay here again.

Excellent Getaway

We loved the patio, as it is where we spent most of our time. Perfect for star gazing and story-telling. This was a multi-generational trip, and everyone was pleased with their stay.

Private and cozy

Great place at the top tier of Forest Lakes... close to National Forest with a lot of hiking access. Fish in the private lake or take a short drive to Vallecito or Lemon reservoirs... great place! I'll stay again!

Beautiful Home with Mountain Views and forest surroundings

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Pine Ridge Views. Lots of room to spread out, super clean, with comfy beds, and a full kitchen with all the tools needed. Management was very quick to respond to any questions we had. The property was gorgeous and we enjoyed the Mountain Views and forest surroundings. Great balcony to hang out enjoy the views and warm up by the fire pit table. Location is great as we were able to easily visit Pagosa Springs and Durango. I can see why the owners can't wait to make it their full time residence. We loved it so much that we looked at nearby properties for ourself! Don't hesitate staying here! We would definitely make a return trip to this property in a heartbeat.

Beautiful and Quiet

The property was beautiful and the views were amazing. We arrived at sunset so got to enjoy that all the way up the mountain. It seems to be one of the uppermost homes on the mountain. The views from thie living area and loft area were spectacular. The steam room is also great! We used it several times. Sleeping downstairs is a little loud due to the furnace and water heater being in a rather open area downstairs.

A much needed break in a beautiful home

This is the very first time my kids, their spouses, grandson, and doggies were able to get away from all of our home bases and just relax. Lots of pics taken and memories made. The deer! The birdsong! The stars! The view!! The quiet! We absolutely loved it and the vote is unanimous-we will be back here to this home next year. Thanks for letting us use your beautiful home! Kathy D

Beautiful Bayfield rocks!

June in Colorado is great. Cool temps. Gorgeous green scenery. Rolling hills and majestic mountain peaks seemingly in every direction. A short drive to Durango for shopping and dining. Bayfield is a convenient hub for longer day trips to Silverton and Ouray too. Don’t pass up visiting Honeyville for all the honey products you could wish for. This home we stayed at for our Colorado trip had pretty much everything we needed. Lots of thick towels for hot showers. Good water flow. A great kitchen for putting together meals. Gas stove/oven worked well. Nice furnishings. Spacious deck and high end deck furnishings and umbrellas. A propane grill for those burgers and comfy beds ( though the main level queen could stand a mattress topper as it was a little stiff for our taste.) Oh, and a tea kettle that “sings” when it’s hot! Thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Our doggos loved the daily hikes. We spotted deer and chipmunks along the way. In Bayfield itself, there is a grocery store that will have pretty much everything you need. There’s a very good pizza joint in the same parking lot. There’s a coffee truck in one corner ( didn’t see it until we were leaving.) and back on the 501 slightly behind the shopping center is a nice little place called Baked for breakfast. Very tasty Eggwich sandwiches but also cinnamon rolls and danish and the like. So if you haven’t visited Bayfield, plan your visit today!

Top of the Mountain

We arrived to a beautiful cabin high atop a mountain. The cabin was all closed up & extremely hot. We have stayed in many, many cabins in the area from Jun-Aug and though it is typical for them not to have air conditioning- the other hosts have had windows open & fans turned on so that it is not unbearable. This was not the case here. The 1st night was horrible, no one could sleep because of the stiffling heat & lack of fans. The next night was not as bad because we had windows open all day & it helped but it was still uncomfortably hot. Luckily this place has a huge deck that we spent all of our time on until it was time to go to bed. One creepy thing about the home: there is 1 camera & it faces the deck where I'm sure all guests spend most of their time. I've seen ring door bells & cameras that face outward toward the property but this camera is definitely there to watch it's guests on the deck & that is definitely creepy. The kitchen is well stocked, & so were the bathrooms. Everything was clean & in good shape. Although you are charged a cleaning fee- be prepared to wash towels & all dishes must be cleaned as well. If you are in the area to use Vallecito lake- please be aware it is 30 minutes away. The listing says 10 minutes. I messaged before making my reservation & I was also told 10 min, but it is 30 min drive to the marina.

Stressful Stay

We tried to get away from our cell phones but the neighbor complained a lot so we spent the weekend texting back & forth with the property manager. The first night - apparently the outside lights were shining into the neighbor’s bedroom, so I was asked to shut them off early. I couldn’t shut one off; it was on a sensor & shut off late. I was asked to turn the bulb (a thousand-degree floodlight bulb!) I brought our dogs and the neighbor complained about them barking. I found out they recorded the barking so I asked for the audio file. 2 whole barks! Don’t make any noise if you want to stay here. If you have a dog, don’t let it bark. If you have a small dog, the deck does not have adequate protection; one of our shih tzus fell off 12-15 ft. Next, the camera. Property description says it’s there; I thought it was outside. The camera is in the dining/kitchen where everyone gathers. It has a large speaker to capture audio. This was very uncomfortable. We never knew if someone was watching or listening. Beds, shower, amenities were good. No A/C may seem okay in the mountains (we were in early June) but with huge windows it gets hot! At night it was cool. We had to close all the windows when our dogs wanted to play so we wouldn’t bother the neighbor. I learned that even though you pay a heavy pet fee, you are not always protected. Seems like the neighbor does not like that this is a short-term rental. I had hoped the property manager would’ve been more on our side.

4 Stars

The house itself was very nice and had a great view in peaceful neighborhood. There were 100 flies on the ceiling of the loft bedroom when we arrived and for the first night of our stay. The booster pump for the domestic water system and the laundry/mechanical room did not have a door so when either of the 2 were running it was very noisy downstairs leaving it noisy for the people in the downstairs bedroom. The address was located in an inconspicuous location leaving it very difficult to find the house in the dark. The drive to Durango was 45 to 50 minutes unlike the stated 20 minute drive. We also noticed that there was a radiation Radon venting system that was installed which made it a little concerning about staying there. After reading up on that I found that this is a common occurrence throughout the Rocky Mountains but still feel it should be noted for outsiders.
