About this property

Come & stay with us and enjoy the beauty of the western slope of Colorado.

We welcome you to stay with us in our completely re-modeled house that is situated in the Uncompahgre valley surrounded by the San Juan Mountain range, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, and the Grand Mesa. Our temperate weather and year-round sunshine lends itself to outdoor recreation at its finest. There are three ski areas each within 1 1/2 hrs. drive, premier hunting and fishing, bike trails, a river sports park for the adventurous, and a beautiful new Recreation Center with pools/slides, a climbing wall, game and weight rooms, a large gymnasium and racquetball courts-something for everyone! There are also three golf courses in town, a library, museums, a movie theaters, several venues for live music, and shopping in our historic downtown and also south of town.

There are numerous fine restaurants in town; but, if you want to relax after a full day of adventures, you can stay home and prepare dinner in our well-equipped kitchen, reading a book from the bookshelves or watching a movie.

*An additional charge will be requested by us after your booking for the city & lodging sales tax of 3.39%; VRBO only collects state sales tax of 4.65%

We were very happy with how clean and bright the house was. Plenty of furniture for all of us to relax in the evening after a day of exploring Montrose and surrounding sites. Kitchen was well equipped, plenty of towels for bathing and the swing on the front porch was a nice place to relax after a walk around the neighborhood. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a safe, clean, comfortable place to stay.

The house is charming and exceptionally well-equipped. We had everything we needed for our weekend stay. Its location is convenient, close to town and just ten minutes from the wedding venue. A grocery store is located right down the street, and it’s only a few miles to town. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were modern and clean, and the kitchen was fully stocked with utensils and appliances for making breakfast and lunch — we just supplied the food. It was great!

Great location in quiet neighborhood

We were visiting Black Canyon, which was so accessible from the cottage. It felt like it was in the center of town, and with the grocery store close by, it felt like home with all the little conveniences. It made it easy to explore Montrose as well - we went to the Ute Indian museum as well. Overall, the place was quiet, clean, and we were able to come back after our days exploring and hiking to decompress and make a home cooked meal. Thanks for letting us stay!

Great place to stay while visiting Black Canyon

We enjoyed our short stay. The location was great and let us take advantage of vising the Black Canyon at night to see the stars come out. We couldn't get the grill to work but were otherwise really happy with the property.

Overall the stay was fine. The house is comfortable and close to a lot of stuff in town, as well as close to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. During our stay, one of the two toilets did not work at all. Also, there aren't many sockets in the bedrooms close to the beds.

The house was equipped with the essentials needed for our family of 5. Grocery store is within 5 minute drive. Location was great for excursions to Telluride (about 1.15 hr drive) and Black Canyon of the Gunnison (about 30 min drive).

The purple door cottage was beautiful from the moment we pulled up. The large green lawn and trees in front were very nice. The house had lots of space and had the things we needed in the kitchen. The neighborhood was very quiet.

Our group consisted of 2 couples and we were on a 10 day vacation working our way through Colorado. We stayed 2 nights at Barbara's place and were very happy with our stay. It is an older home but remodeled beautifully. We were very comfortable and pleased. We would strongly recommend. Thank you.

Nice location

Nice location with comfy bed. I would have given 5 stars except for a lot of dishes in the cupboards were dirty which may not be fair as it likely had to do with previous visitors. There was an off putting smell in the living room but then again I have a pretty string sense of smell, but my son did mention it too. Overall a well laid out home with plenty of space for our family.

My daughters and I greatly enjoyed our week at this house. It was the perfect place to rest and recoup each evening after a day of adventures. The house was clean and comfortable and gave us each our own room. The fully stocked kitchen and grill allowed us to make dinner together each night. As a single parent, I felt safe and comfortable. We had no issues at all and would love to return

Comfortable Stay

The house was nice. It was clean and roomy enough for four people. It was close to the Black Canyons and a short drive to restaurants for dinner since we chose not to cook. The instructions were thorough. We did not need to contact our host at all.

About the host

Hosted by Barbara A Bond

Host profile image
Bill & I, both grew up in Denver and moved to Montrose 30 years ago. In our 40+ years together we have built or remodeled a dozen houses either for ourselves or as rentals. Bill has the construction expertise but refers the design & decorating to me. We bought this charming house with the vision that with our combined skills we could turn it into a comfortable place to host guests that want to spend time in beautiful western Colorado.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this house in 2015 for a rental and a couple years ago while Bill was remodeling another house to re-sell we decided to turn this house into a vacation rental. We started work a year ago and have enjoyed bringing the charm of the 50's back as well as adding some comfortable modern additions. We hope you enjoy the fruits of our labor!

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the house because of the spacious rooms and big windows to let in the sunshine. This house is unique because it is located in a very quiet neighborhood yet only a ten minute drive to shopping, restaurants, golf, parks, and so much more.
