Dolores Colorado cabin

This is a great cabin for a stay in Southwest Colorado. The West Dolores river is feet from the house. The cabin has been updated and has everything you need for a perfect stay. The host was very responsive. I was lucky to find this property for my vacation.

Absolutely wonderful!

Our stay at the cabin was wonderful! We had a glitch when checking in ( with the cleaning) and the owner was extremely responsive, took care of it ASAP, and gave us a bit of a refund for the inconvenience. The cabin was well equipped with everything we could possibly need. The location is convenient and the cabin is totally cozy! My only suggestion would be to improve the lighting with some lamps. Highly recommend!
