We thoroughly enjoyed this property! It's a beautiful house, well organized and styled. Our teen loved his separate space. Thank you for the happy memory!!
The property was just as seen on the listing if not better! Very clean with a well provisioned kitchen. The view is fantastic as well. We enjoyed our stay and appreciated that our dogs were welcomed.
This house was amazingly laid out. It was super clean and had all of the comforts of home. Loved having a real coffee maker with coffee and filtered water in the fridge. We only wished we had stayed more than one night.
Loooove this place!!! It was so quiet and beautiful. The house was gorgeous and comfortable. The beds were great! We joked that we would send our kids home and just stay there for forever! I need an excuse to be back in southern Colorado!! We went to Great Sand Dunes National Park for a day. The local grocery store and cafe were so cute! TONS of gluten free options at the store! Lots of small artists shops in town too! The girls loved the loft bedroom! We loved the coffee bar! The kitchen was beautiful too! Thank you for everything!!
Great option for a quick trip to visit nearby Great Sand Dunes National Park (with a dog). Had a relaxed late meal at Bliss Cafe in nearby Crestone (again, with the dog) then settled in for the night. Breakfast at Roast Cafe in Alamosa, then on to the Park. Perfect for our party of three's short stopover; everything we could need.
We love the house. The property was clean. The property manager was easy to get in touch with and very helpful. We highly recommend this house! Thank you for sharing it with us
Everything was as described in the listing. Home was clean and vibrant with large windows that let in plenty of natural light. Great place to explore all the nearby attractions. I would definitely recommend it.
House was super clean, well appointed and comfortable. We were staying there for just one night on our way to Great Sand Dunes NP. Would recommend going again if you are in the area!
We had a great stay at this awesome house. The views were amazing both inside and outside. Don’t underestimate the staircase though, it is tricky to get up and down, especially in the middle of the night.
The property is located in a beautiful area. We saw deer and coyotes on the property. The amenities were all we were looking for.

Modern, well appointed, nice setting. Nice to have two separate areas. Glad there was a pull out bed on the main floor as the spiral staircase was too narrow to feel comfortable. Very clean but there was a noticeable odor. It was listed as 12 minutes from the Great Sand Dunes National park but that entrance was not accessible. Plan an hour drive to the GSDNP visitor center. Dunes are awesome! View of night sky incredible.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 May 2026
Hi, I’m sorry about the miscommunication regarding the location of the Sand Dunes. Our listing states the house is about an hour drive to the Sand Dunes. However VRBO uses an AI powered mapping tool to automatically generate distances to local attractions and you must have seen that on the "Explore the Area" option. I am not able to edit that or remove it as it is not part of our listing. Sorry for that inconvenience.
We had the most amazing time in Crestone! What a beautiful place to relax and adventure! The house was clean comfortable modern and there were all the amenities! We will be back for sure!
Our stay was awesome! Everything was as advertised/listed. Fantastic views from the home. Peaceful neighborhood, everything we needed for a quiet getaway.
Very comfortable and cute home! It was convenient to the great sand dunes, zapata falls, and the gator farm. They have a sweet basket of goodies for guests yes among with dogs too, it was a thoughtful touch. I definitely recommend.
This was a great little house! It was very comfortable and clean and had all the things we needed and wanted to make this a small home away from home. The host was thoughtful with all of the little touches. Only drawback is the location, while it is beautifully tucked in against the mountains it is a bit of a drive to get to most places we were trying to see.
We enjoyed the home! The attention to detail was evident. We had everything we needed. If you want a secluded stay, this is for you. Make sure you get your supplies prior to getting there.
This was just what we needed. A quiet family getaway with amazing views in a beautiful home. Home was fully equipped with everything we needed. Crestone Mercantile offered all the supplies. We enjoyed a day at Joyful hot springs and a hike up the Sand Dunes. Location was perfect and we are thankful for the communication we received.
