Our stay couldn’t have been more perfect. The apartment is beautiful and well appointed. The beds and sofa are comfortable. There’s a very lovely kitchen to cook in and dining table to eat at. The deck is fabulous with a fabulous view and places to sit. We will definitely stay again. Though it wasn’t a problem for us there was a flight of stairs so if you can’t do stairs probably not the stay for you.

Great accommodation, big room with great views on valley and mountains. The sun on the balcony in the morning is very nice. The hosts are very friendly and helpful.
Jeff and Renee's place was wonderful. Everything from the amenities, space, accommodations, views from his deck, and proximity to Mesa Verde Park were great. Jeff was super helpful and always reachable by phone, although we did see him from time to time on his property, which was comforting. We highly recommend his vacation property when you are planning a trip to the park and the surrounding areas.
My stay was amazing, very comfortable and I found everything I needed and more at the house. The property and space are immaculate and owners are wonderful. They made sure I knew I could contact them with any questions or needs. There’s easy access to downtown Mancos, Cortez and Durango for adventures though you don’t need to leave the house to enjoy a breathtaking view! You cannot go wrong with a stay here!
Lovely, Relaxing Property with a Great Mountain View
Wonderful property. I choose it because it was so close to Mesa Verde National Park, and it was an easy (maybe 5 minute) drive to the park entrance. The beds are comfortable, the hosts very friendly and the private deck has a gorgeous view over the valley.
Loved the condo. Quiet, safe, cozy, close to Mesa Verde, star gazing, comfortable beds, deck with bbq and everything else you could need. Host checked to make sure we had all we need - perfect!!

Thanks glad you enjoyed your time with us hope to see you again
The owner Jeff was a great host. The apartment had a wonderful view of thee mountains and surrounding hills. The apartment was clean and spacious. Most importantly, the location was about 5 minutes from the entrance to Mesa Verde National Park.
The Birds Nest was the perfect spot in Cedar Mesa, conveniently located across from the national park entrance. The home is very clean, wonderful view, well stocked kitchen and linens. We hope to go back another time to explore more of the area.
Wonderful hosts!! Laurie

The property was perfect for the 4 of us - 2 parents and 2 college age kids. You can't stay any closer to Mesa Verde. Great views, great owners, great space, great location! Check out Fenceline Cidery in Mancos!
