You know, I came to this area for over twenty years before I finally purchased and retired here. I spent twelve years travelling in the Music business and have traveled all over the world. There are very few places in the world like Ridgway. I am amazed at the continuing outdoor activity that never seems to stop. It just transitions from winter activities, skiing, cross country ski, ice climbing, snowmobiles, snow boarding and on and on. Then we transition in to Spring and all that goes with it, from Mountain Climbing, Hiking, Jeep Trails to die for, Fishing, Boating, Motorcycling and on and on. The beauty that surrounds this little community is surreal. When I purchased this perfectly located property it had This beautiful log home rental with spectacular views of the Cimarron and the San Juan Mountains. The cabin is now a fully furnished mountain retreat with everything you will need for a comfortable, affordable stay. Private road with lots of wildlife. Beautiful old Cottonwood trees with an old tire swing. A creek runs through the pasture keeping the grass lush and green. Enjoy the panoramic mountain views. Far enough away from civilization, yet walking distance to town! Located on a farm with lots of wildlife. Only 26 miles from the nearest airport. 2 miles to the famous Ouray Hot springs. 9 miles to Ouray, an easy drive to the Ice Climbing Park off of Camp Bird Mine Rd. and Imogene Pass, renowned for Jeeping and 4x4s. 35 Miles from the Ski Lifts in Telluride. If you think you like staying in Telluride, then you should try this very special Gem in Ridgway. You will be surprised at how open things feel in this Valley. The town is full of incredible restaurants and close to all of the restaurants in Ouray. Join us at the Mountain View Cabin for your next stay in the area.
