Perfect Getaway

This was the perfect place for my family of 5! The house had everything we needed and sipping coffee next to the river can’t be beat! We fell in love with Cuchara and will definitely be back again in the future. The house is cozy, clean and the perfect space for a small getaway.

The best part of this property is the outdoor setting by the creek .This property needs a good scrubbing some fresh paint .An adult size toilet would be nice .The outdoor grill is disgusting.I am so glad that I brought my own bed linens and comforter.This cabin could be wonderful with some TLC . Cuchara is a beautiful area we enjoyed our time hiking and exploring the area .

This was a simple cabin in a quiet, peaceful setting on the small Cuchara river. Nothing elaborate or fancy, so don’t expect that. But if sitting by the small river in solitude is what you’re wanting, this is the place. Clean with basic necessities, just a couple of blocks from the few businesses in Cuchara, which unfortunately had almost all closed for the season the very day we arrived. Our stay was Oct 7-9 and the fall colors were at their absolute peak, but many businesses in the area had just closed on weekdays for end of season. Still a pleasant stay. Great hiking just across the road in San Isbel National Forest.
