This is a great location for visiting Great Sand Dune National Park and surrounding area. The check-in process was simple and flexible. Our host met us in person and gave us a tour of the home ensuring we had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked, and the back deck was perfect for viewing the sunrise and the night sky. We will consider staying here again.

A beautiful place to stay!

The house was gorgeous and a lovely place to stay at! The owner was prompt to respond to questions and it we had everything we needed. It was very easy to find, even in the dark, and it was close to the sand dunes. I would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful views & dog friendly

The house was the perfect home built lovingly by the owner. The views of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range were spectacular. We hiked Zapata Falls, Monte Vista Wildlife Refuge & The Great Sand Dunes National Park with our border collies. The owner gave us lots of local information plus our dogs loved his dog! All had a blast running & chasing sticks on the property every evening. Sunsets were awesome!

Mt. Blanca House

We loved staying at our VRBO in Alamosa, Colorado. Beautiful view of Mt. Blanca and other peaks. House amenities included deck with chairs and a grill, living room with futon and kitchen area, large bathroom with full size washer/dryer, separate bedroom with queen bed. Pet friendly (large dog crate provided), as well as a mud room for skis, shoes, jackets, etc. We loved the quiet outside at night. Would book again if we pass through the area.

Perfect SLV Location

Our first stay in SLV & we were so happy to have chosen this location- perfectly situated for day trips exploring the abundance of incredible natural areas, hot springs & local businesses & breweries. The view of the night sky here is amazing & exactly what we were looking for. Very little light pollution and no close neighbors while you spend the evening on the back deck. The house itself is cozy, clean & well cared for. We look forward to our next visit! ❤️

I loved staying at this house that Chris built and plan to stay there again next September for the whole month. It is located on the San Luis Valley floor which is 7,500 ft above sea level. Mount Blanca, one of Colorado's 14ers , overlooks it.My favorite spot was the huge deck great for a leisurely coffee in the morning and star gazing at night. No bugs, no noise. Nothing but nature. Chris lives on the adjoining property and anytime I texted him he wouldrespond immediately.The house is very well equipped and the bed is very comfortable. The internet is super fast and the television streams almost every service I've heard of.I would definitely recommend this place for an extended stay because it is so comfortable and safe and there is so much to explore in the area.

Weekend Trip

Property was as described and matched photos. We decided on a weekend trip to Alamosa to see the dunes and reptile park. Great location for a base camp. Very dog friendly. It was classic Colorado spring and we had very high winds the first night/day and our power went off (entire region was out). Chris our host was prompt to respond and called power company to get an estimate of when it would return and offered to bring over a heater. Fortunately, power returned within 30 minutes so all was good. Would recommend this location and would return if we are ever back down to Alamosa.

Getaway to the dunes

The place was amazing and exactly as described. Chris met me upon arriving and showed around the house, gave ideas on trails and things to do. He even had a dog crate there and a fully fenced kennel outside. Books, sucked kitchen, bathroom, and the views were simply amazing from every room. The craftmanship of the home is outstanding and my understanding is he built the home and all the furniture himself. Outstanding. Would rent again for another getaway.

Just what we needed!

Chris, the owner, was awesome and tried to greet us but we arrived late in the evening. He was very accommodating. The house itself provides solitude and relaxation with amazing views. The deck was great for star gazing at night and the simplicity of the home is what makes it so great. A romantic getaway would be perfect for this home for a couple nights. Very close to Great Sand Dunes which was our primary reason for staying. Everything worked and you can tell the house is well cared for - you won’t regret staying at this property!

Perfect for our visit to the Sand Dunes!

This is a beautiful, cozy little house, perfect for our family and two dogs. There is a good sized dog run for the dogs to have some outside time on their own, and lots of space for their daily walks. Our destination was a visit to the Sand Dunes and the location of this property is excellent - close to the dunes, and also close to Alamosa for trips into town for food or supplies. Chris is an excellent host, and he offered advice on other area attractions that were not on our list, so we also visited Zapata Falls (a gorgeous dog friendly hike - be prepared to get wet to see the falls, but it's worth it!) and the Gator Farm, allowing my 10-yr--old to fulfill his lifelong dream of holding an alligator. This was just one stop on a family road trip, and he still says the Gator Farm was his favorite part, so thanks for the recommendation Chris! Overall this was a great place to stay, gorgeous outside views, excellent amenities and just what we were looking for.
