This home is located in downtown Montrose, just 30 minutes from the San Juan mountains, and Ridgway reservoir. It is minutes away from bike paths, coffee shops, downtown shopping and restaurants, the Uncompaghre River Sports Park, Black Canyon National Park, and amazing recreation parks! This cute little cottage is clean and peaceful. It is quaint and comfortable with AC, WIFI fully stocked kitchen, and a 58" TV in the living room along with another one in the bedroom that is smaller. Both TVs have Roku guest mode so you can sign into your favorite apps or watch any number of free channels inclided! . The bathroom has a brand new renovation. The whole cottage has been newly renovated with fresh paint, new landscaping, and brand new furniture, dishes and appliances! There is a cute little porch with seating and a raised garden with vegetables and herbs. This cute little cottage is peaceful and private, it is fully surrounded by a 6-ft privacy fence. There are two gates and both lock from the inside. Montrose is a great location for all your adventures, it is just 3 hours away from Moab, 30 minutes away from Ridgway Reservoir, 20 minutes away from Black Canyon of the Gunnison, and an hour from Grand Mesa, the worlds largest flat top mountain with 300 lakes. The town is sweet and quaint but well equipped. We have a beautiful recreation center for all ages, cute downtown shops, I recommend Fabula for amazing shopping for all ages. Our downtown is full of restaurants on Main Street and coffee shops, San Juan Brews on Main Street is divine! Our town has wonderful walking and biking paths, the bike path goes all the way from the North 9th Street to the recreation center and is wonderfully landscaped, amazing for kiddos and adults alike. We have awesome parks, try Riverbottom for a plethora of activities including walking, biking, hiking, basketball, football, soccer, volley ball, river rafting, tubing, baseball, handball, grilling, and skateboarding on the huge skatepark! Your choice to come here is a great one, and when you stay at the Uncompaghre Cottage you are right in the middle of it all! You will find a list of our recommendations when you book along with some very luxurious amenities including soaking salts, sugar body scrubs, mint and rosemary shampoo and conditioner, lavender body wash, full and plush pillows and more!
We provide a Bible and a daily devotional called Jesus Calling to our guests. This is not meant to be offensive to our guests. It is meant to provide comfort and peace to those who may be hurting and searching for answers. We sincerely hope you will enjoy your stay with us.
We are a normal family, you may hear dogs barking on occasion, our back yard is visible when you walk up separated by a four and a half foot white picket fence. The cottage is a gem and perfectly clean, furnished and well appointed. The yard is neat, everything you will be immersed in is clean and new! **Please pull the gate hard, it's not locked , is just swollen and gets stuck.

This is a great little cottage in a convenient spot in Montrose. It’s old and quaint but has all the amenities you’ll need! It is a great location for visiting the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. The town has some great restaurants and open spaces.
We enjoyed our stay. The place is small, but worked for my husband and me. All the amenities you need. Close to restaurants, grocery stores, etc. There was a problem with the AC unit when we arrived, but the host came over right away and fixed the problem.

Location of the cottage was fantastic! Owners provided a guest guide that was very helpful!
Loved the cottage and the area! Clean, comfortable and well stocked. Planning another trip back to Montrose and I’ll definitely look to stay here again!
Small. Was just right for 2 people. We enjoyed our stay.Would suggest a hand rail for front porch, it was rather steep.

Kim,
Thanks so much for starting with us, we have plans to cover to the stairs completely and raise the deck to meet the new stairs!! Hopefully by next summer this will be done, thank you for your feedback!
Overall, it was a very nice stay. The space was very well designed and cozy. The front yard was a great spot to sit and relax in the evening/morning. The kitchen could use a little work (countertop could be cleaned better and drawers fell out if you weren't careful) but was still very usable and well stocked.

Mason,
Thanks so much for your feedback, I will see what I can do about the drawers, although since it's an older home those are original and I may have to rip out the entire cabinetry, vanity and sink and countertop and replace it with new stuff, Because I don't think that we can install metal hardware in the original drawers. But thank you so much for your feedback and I will take a look at this. Thank you so much for staying with us and we hope you all give us another shot!!
The cottage was very clean and the bed comfortable. The host was amazing and answered questions quickly. Small cottage that was the right size for our family of 3. Nice neighborhood and is easy walking distance to downtown. Quick drive to Black Canyon NP. Would recommend.
Perfect location for our 2-night stay, while visiting friends. We walked to the Farmer's Market on Saturday and enjoyed the cozy environment of the Cottage.

About the host
Hosted by Rachel
We are a happy family living our best life in Montrose CO. We have diverse backgrounds and both have careers. We love God and our children and each other. We love hosting and hope that this property will glorify God in many ways in which we cannot fathom. When you stay here, you support our non-profit, grow Community Center. This non-profit puts on free events for people in our community and pays for kids tutoring, music lessons and sports. Our mission is to show the love of Jesus to people because he loves us. 1 John 4:19 says "we love because he first loved us." This is our guiding star, we do not turn people away, we just shared the love of Jesus with our community and provide a safe, stimulating and fun environment for families to get closer to one another and other people in our community. We hope to one day have a center, and you can help this mission by staying here. Montrose has long been known for closing down at 6:00 p.m. and although it's getting a little better with the new Rec Center here in town, it still closes very early. We hope to have a center that is open 7 days a week for anyone and everyone who may need a place to hang out that is safe, fun and full of love.
Why they chose this property
The cottage is a quaint and peaceful place that sits in the center of Montrose. It is a nice place to get a reprieve from the business of life, a safe refuge, and a happy little home.
What makes this property unique
We have tried to offer some luxury that other VRBO rentals may not offer. We have done a lot of travelling ourselves, and have borrowed from all our favorite experiences. We have large bottles of nice shampoo and conditioner, free wifi, nice dishes and cookware, little chocolates for our guests, good coffee and tea, a garden, body scrub, nice lotion, full and firm and soft pillows to choose from, soft and comfortable linens. It should feel like home, not like a stale hotel.
