We had a great stay - location is ideal for families, you can walk to the park and river, walk to dinner and shops. The house is stocked with everything you need and thoughtful touches. The bedroom is pretty tight if you’re sleeping 4 with the rollaway bed, but we made it work. The hosts were very accommodating and great communicators. We would definitely stay again!

We loved our stay here. Pictures don’t do it justice! It was so cute and fun. We loved being in walking distance to the train station, downtown and the park. The bed was really comfortable as well and the kitchen well stocked. We would definitely stay here again.

Royal Gorge Retreat was perfect! My family of 3 enjoyed our stay, the park and splash pad across the street was very helpful for our toddler. The house was very nice and cozy, and had everything we needed to make breakfast & dinner. The owners put much thought and love into their home for guests to be comfortable. Loved it and will definitely be back someday.

Beautiful Cabin

We really liked the cleanliness of the cabin and our stay was so easy because of the communication from the wonderful host. The location was awesome as well we walked to get on the train and the park was so beautiful across the street. The river was so relaxing to walk by from the cabin as well.

This house is so cute and the host was very timely with all responses. The house had a nice outside space and lots of room inside to relax. The host thought of absolutely everything when stocking the house for our stay and the decorations were nice. The view of the park and mountains is spectacular and so close a drive to the Royal Gorge. I would stay here again.

Great location, cute property

It was clean and comfortable and a short walk to the river and train boarding for the Royal Gorge train. Also walking distance to Downtown Cañon City. Overall very nice place and well cared for. One note, for two adults the bunk bed setup was not the most comfortable but it wasn't awful.

Mikel and Veronica have created a gem of a property! It simply doesn’t convey as well in the photos- there are so many extras! Lots of special touches. A great location central to all the activities we took advantage of during our stay!

Cute little cabin

Cute little vintage cabin in Canyon City. Walking distance to river and historical downtown. Easy drives to white water rafting and Skyline Drive. Clean house, lots of yard. Had everything we needed for 2 night stay!
