Nice property

The house was clean and comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with essential cooking equipment. Communication was very quick with owner. Beds were comfortable. Location was good for our needs of fly fishing the local waters. Limited selection of restaurants in the area. Grocery store carried a nice selection of items. It is combined with a hardware store ( either Ace Hardware or True value) which I found a common arrangement in the larger area.

Rented house for relatives.

I rented this house for some inlaws as we were in town for a reunion. I never got to see the house, but the relatives thought the house was very nice. They liked the private yard. They said is was much nicer than they expected. Sorry I can't give more info!

Lovely cabin in downtown Chama

This cabin is immaculately clean and well appointed. It stayed quite warm throughout some unseasonably warm Fall days, and I imagine is quite cozy in winter. Would definitely consider staying again.
