We stayed at this cottage for a 5 day biking vacation. The location was perfect to hit Hartman Rocks and gravel riding in the Gunnison National Forest. The kitchen had everything we needed and a grocery store was close by. It was private and quiet at night - even saw a shooting star one night. Highly recommend this location.

This was my second stay in as many weeks. I have been living and working in Gunnison for the past year and a half and since my lease went up at my apartment (1/4 mile south) this cottage has served me well and has been very comfortable and private. I hope to reserve it again before I leave the valley to go home to Paonia.

Karah and Bob’s “Gus’s Getaway” is the perfect couple’s getaway on the Gunnison river. We were looking for a quiet cabin to enjoy some late fall colors and private access to one of Colorado’s most coveted trout fisheries. This is a very well stocked, super clean, and cozy cabin that leaves you looking forward to your next visit. Only 6 miles from a lively Main Street restaurant scene and under an hour from incredible views of The Black Canyon National Park. Best of all… the fishing right behind the cabin is legendary! We can’t wait to book next season! Karen and Bob are the most kind and generous hosts! 100% recommend!!

Property is a beautiful quiet getaway just outside of town on the Gunnison River, in walking distance to Garlic Mikes. This was my second stay and it did not disappoint. Clean and modern appliances. A quiet retreat when I visit family.

Great spot!

This is the second time I've had a parent stay here and it was equally as well received as the last time. The property is spacious, cozy, clean and secluded, and really made my family feel like they were truly on vacation while still having access to their grandkids. Karah is a wonderful host and does a great job all around. This spot is highly recommended!
