Country getaway nestled in a serene and private wooded estate.
Carter's Cabin is a uniquely wonderful cabin offering a cozy and comfortable getaway nestled in a serene and private wooded estate on the Animas River where you can enjoy the prolific wildlife where rarely has a day gone by without deer wandering through the yard or the foxes coming out to play! With approximately 1200 sq ft of space, a living/dining area large enough to seat up to 6, full kitchen, and a bedroom loft that is uniquely appropriate for a businessman who wants more than a hotel room or small family getaways.
In the winter, the woodstove can provide a warm focal point on a cold evening. In the summer, a porch in front or back will provide fresh air and cool breezes and a view of the beautifully manicured grounds. Feed the huge catfish in the pond. Sorry no fishing in the pond, but you can fish in the river. A gas grill allows for relaxing outdoor dining. Onsite amenities include tennis/basketball/pickle ball court, volleyball area, golfing area, fishing and a very private biking, walking, or jogging paths and stables are available for your horse. And the best part is it is located only 6 blocks from the Animas Valley mall!
This home is equipped with a washer/dryer so you need not pack a lot of clothes for an extended stay. In addition to the King bed in the loft there is a pull-out sofa bed in the downstairs living area. For your indoor entertainment, there is a flat TV along with a Blu-Ray DVD player. Internet is available to keep up with what's going on in the outside world. Stables are available for rent. Weekly maid service is available at an additional cost. This is a NON-Smoking home!

This is an amazing cabin on a beautiful piece of property on the river in Farmington. Rose is a wonderful hostess and when we had a plumbing problem on the property, she and her husband bent over backwards to make it right. They are lovely people and we enjoyed our stay so much. Highly recommend!!

We stayed here for a wedding weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better place. The cabin was private, peaceful, and absolutely beautiful. One morning while having coffee on the porch, we watched deer run across the property—it was magical. The space was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. It was the perfect retreat after the festivities, and we’d love to stay here again.

The cabin is comfortable and very spacious. We enjoyed walking around the park-like grounds to see the river and horses. Having a washer and dryer in the cabin was very convenient.
This property is the picturesque vacation home. It felt safe and secure and had so many beautiful things to look at and space to roam. The beds were comfortable, everything was very clean and spacious and customer service was excellent. This is my only go to spot to stay when I am traveling in the area.

Adorable cabin on stunning property close to everything
We loved our stay here! My husband and I stayed two nights with our two kids while we were in the area visiting Bisti and Chaco. All four of us loved this stay. The cabin is as advertised and the property is more beautiful than pictures can capture. We had to drag my kids inside from the trampoline and lovely grounds. We would definitely stay here again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cozy cabin. The setting was beautiful with a small pond out front and the sound of the Animas river flowing nearby. There were numerous geese that visited daily. We chose this cabin for it’s proximity to fly fishing on the San Juan. We highly recommend this property and host!

Cozy cabin next to the river. We enjoyed walking around, grilling steaks, soaking up the sun. Comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen. Bathroom was interesting, but serviceable. Really appreciated the communication from the owners and helpful ideas on sites to see.

This little Getaway Cabin was spacious and comfortable. In addition to being a lovely property there was plenty of outdoor space to stretch our legs. The cabin is well stocked with necessities. The location is in close proximity to restaurants, markets and gas stations. We were very well rested for our exploring adventures.

The cabin and surrounding grounds were stunning. The location is tucked away into nature but just a short drive to anywhere you’d want to go. Everything you could want was available in the cabin, from extensive kitchen utensils to thoughtful toiletries. Rose was responsive and very helpful when we ran into a booking snafu on our end. Her patience was appreciated. We will definitely return!

We rented this property because there are too many adults to stay at my parents house for Christmas. The property and cabin are beautiful. By cozy, I don't mean small but that the feel of the place is cozy. We brought our family to see the cabin because it was so lovely. The fixtures in the house made you feelike you were in a turn of the century home but with all modern amenities. We would be more than happy to stay again. We just wish we had more time there.

It was a very nice and peaceful cabin. We just stayed for 3 nights. We wanted to go explore Bisti Badlands but it rained. We enjoyed watching football and just relaxing. The cabin has everything you would want in a house. The steps upstairs was hard for me, but I am 66. Most people would not mind. I would definitely recommend this place to stay.

First class but have some concerns regarding suitability for older guests with the loft bedroom and the tub shower without grab bars.
