Property was very comfortable for 3 adults. Accessibility to the river for fishing could not have been more convenient. Friendly deer visited every day.
My husband and I usually stay at a resort; however, this time we chose a VRBO, and I'm so glad we did.
When we arrived check in with easy per instructions provided by the host.
Accommodations were as described. Very comfortable and relaxing. Enjoyed all the wildlife and fishing. Area is quiet. Definitely will stay again....

We enjoyed our time in your cottage. Watching the birds, the deer and the duck races (with actual ducks) in the river kept us busy and amused. We even had a visit from a bear. Would highly recommend your home to anyone looking for total peace and quiet.
Being right next to the river and within minutes of town were definitely the best thing about this place. As constructive criticism I suggest replacing the mattress in the small bedroom and giving the bathroom a bit of love. I mean, everything was functional but some TLC would go a long way. Overall we enjoyed the stay and the rental provided us with a great point from which to explore the area.
Location was great, on Gunnison River. Deer walked by back deck every day. Bed was a little too firm for me, my husband said it was ok with him. Had to contact owner regarding how to get shower to turn on, they responded right away.
We enjoyed our weekend and loved being able to have our dog with us!! The location was great and we were able to do many day adventures in Gunnison. The river was beautiful and we enjoyed drinking our coffee and watching the wildlife. Easy check in and check out. Thank you!
Beautiful view from deck of Gunnison River. House is clean, well-stocked, comfortable and has a great western theme which for a southerner was a hoot...up to and including the Cowboy Magic Rose Water Shampoo. Just a lovely place to spend a week.
This was our second time staying here. It was just as nice as the first time. My only gripe was that it wasnt quite as clean as last time. Beds had trash under them. Otherwise, it was a good trip.
Love this rental, great location and a very comfortable house. Everything was clean and it's well stocked. We'll definitely use this rental on our next trip to Gunnison.
You can sit on the couch and watch and listen to the water rippling by on the river outside the back door if your not outside setting by the fire pit. Deer visited everyday and ducks swam up the river. Great relaxing atmosphere in a quiet neighborhood. The house was just perfect for us. We would definitely stay here again.
Donna’s property is wonderful ! It’s right on the river with so much wildlife to view, ducks, fish, small birds and deer. There is plenty of space inside and out. Kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms are well stocked with most anything you would need. The area is secluded and peaceful! We will be returning!
The home was wonderful. We have stayed before and just had to return.

My husband Steve and I have been coming to Gunnison for the past 35 years. This is home to my husband whom has been coming to Gunnison since he was 4 years old. He remembers the cabins along the river Before Blue Mesa Reservoir was created. We lived in Gunnison full time for 10 years! Now we have a part time home that we would love to share with YOU.
