Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Dan and Melissa Jones
Hi! We are Dan and Melissa Jones and just recently moved from Texas to South Fork full time to manage our beautiful group retreat cabin. We love the mountains and enjoy all of the outdoor activities that they provide such as Jeep trailing, riding atv's and snowmobiles, camping, kayaking, hiking and skiing. If you have questions on where to go/ what to do we are happy to help. We look forward to having you as our guests and hope you will feel right at home at our river lodge!
Why they chose this property
We have always loved coming to the South Fork area for summer vacations and just recently started skiing at Wolf Creek. Dan even camped here as a kid and always dreamed of one day living in the mountains. After we got married we dreamed together of owning a retreat center in the mountains and this lodge was everything we were looking for. Riverfront with beautiful views of the mountains and would sleep large groups. What more could we ask for?
What makes this property unique
You will absolutely LOVE relaxing on the large porch and hearing the sound of the river just a few feet away. Nothing beats morning coffee on the deck while watching the sun rise against the mountains! The log work is absolutely amazing- quality craftsmanship by all means!
Located on the Gold Medal fishing waters of the Rio Grande River!!! This is a perfect location for river fishing!
