The Stargazer was the perfect spot for our large family! We watched the stars from the back deck and enjoyed a fun day at the sand dunes. Crestone was charming and quiet. We had everything we needed.

Weekend in Crestone

Had a great stay with my brothers in Crestone. House was spacious and clean, and had all the amenities we needed. Quick and friendly communicated from the host. Would definitely stay again! We especially appreciated the deck spaces and natural light throughout the house.

Beautiful space & appropriately named stargazer cabin!! It did not disappoint. There was plenty of room for everyone. Comfortable spaces inside and outside. Small town nearby to get supplies. It is about a hour drive to the sand dunes. Just a great time with family and friends. The hostess was very responsive.

The Stargazer is aptly named- watching the stars from the upper deck, and the glorious "sangre de cristos" sunsets was heaven. The house was a wonderful base for our hiking adventures!

Great place for stargazing under dark skies!

Really nice property which we are interested in staying at again, perhaps in the cooler spring months. It would be an outstanding property with air conditioning added.

Lovely cabin

The views of the valley and the mountains were superb. My 10 year old son appreciated the foosball table. Bedrooms and quality of mattresses was great. A perfect basecamps for exploring the Sand Dunes and Crestone.

Awesome Location

Cabin was perfect. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and the loft with bonus space. Lots of games to play while waiting for the stars. Loved the views and location was close to many destinations. The Great Sand Dunes is a must, in the day and after dark.

Home away from home under the stars

This home is aptly named Stargazer—the night sky is beautifully clear for viewing the stars. It’s nicely furnished and comfortable with plenty of spaces for togetherness or solitude. Nice porch with comfy furniture and a gas fire pit, as well as a balcony off the loft. The host was very accessible when we had questions. A great stay!
