Everything was great, however the trash bins were never emptied from a previous stay and the water never got very hot for the master bathtub. When I asked they told me to turn the faucet on. On fully hot, it was only lukewarm. The access/entry code given didn’t work either, had to call management for a new entry code.

This house had everything that everyone wanted for their vacation! Family of 8 adults enjoyed every minute. For the loungers the oversized living room with picture windows right out onto the river or the full length porch with river views was the perfect book reading and crocheting spot. For the active, walking the 30 steps to the river to fish or hike on nearby walkable mountains was any easy fit. The kitchen was ample for cooking all our meals including a grill out back and having full size laundry facilities available was a welcome bonus. 5 rooms was plenty with a room to spare. House was clean and well kept and we'll be back.

Beautiful and Scenic!

The mansion had room for everyone and 3.5 baths! It was really clean and had everything you would need for staying there. It was situated right on the river. Wildlife (Deers) was seen everyday. Not even a mouse to be found, so no worries. Everyone enjoyed the Cabin/Mansion :) Would definitely stay here again!

Labor Day

We enjoyed our stay! The property worked out great for our large group. Conveniently located close to town, right on the river & a short drive to Creede. The only thing I would recommend would be a few more accessories for the kitchen-serving utensils, bowls etc. Otherwise, the property was wonderful!

Fabulous!

Great location and facility! The river is right outside your back door. Also reasonably priced. We had two couples and one single so each group had a floor to themselves. Close to Creed where they have top notch professional theare. We went in mid August so just know that at the end of the summer there are very few restuarants open in the evening at Creed or South Fork. I would definately suggest this place for families and large groups.

South Fork Rental

Cabin was a nice surprise. Great view of the Rio Grand River. Cabin was extremely clean and well equipped kitchen for meals. Maybe replace hand held can opener lol! Beds were very clean and comfortable. We had no issues so no need to call/notify management. Bring at least one large container to store bread, chips and things of that nature. There are mice (never saw one) on the property, but that is no surprise since there are 2 structures being built a little ways from the cabin. Plenty of towels and other supplies. Will most definitely rent this cabin again. The river view is wonderful with really nice fire pit and seating!

The management company is horrible

We couldn’t checking intel 3 hours later, no heat from the fireplace or heater a week later someone came and fixed the fireplace, heater was never fixed, The master bedroom saw dust falls all the time, you wake up with saw dust in your mouth and ears. Unwind doesn’t want to refund one day since we left early due to the issue or discount. Do not rent anything that is managed by Unwind.

Large house on river with friendly mice.

Beautiful location on the river. A large cabin that was perfect for a large family group. This is a newly built cabin built with unfinished wood. So be careful about getting splinters when holding onto handrails. The other concern was several mice in the cabin. We understand we’re out in the wilderness, however, a recommendation would be that plastic storage bins be provided to prevent mice from getting into food in the cabinets. These concerns did not prevent us from enjoying our vacation. The rental company was also quick to respond to the concern about the mice and scheduled a treatment to take place right away in addition to the monthly treatment.

Could Be Better

The bottom bedroom with the queen bed was awful. There were obnoxious clicking noises all night long, I’m assuming from either the water heater or room heater. The house could use an iron, strainer and ice cream scoop. The fire place was not working and not mentioned beforehand. Not only was it not working but a really cold draft blew through it, so much so that they tried covering it with plastic wrap.

Due North —- Some disappointments

Great looking log home in outstanding South Fork location just steps away from the Rio Grande. Spacious living room and veranda. Easy access off highway. Very clean.Disappointment: Microwave did not work; gas fireplace did not work; Signs in garage said it was not to be used even though the listing said garage available; Electric blinds did not work and were stopped in down position so views could not be fully enjoyed; Outdoor gas grill could not be used as it had not been cleaned and was disgusting. Many light bulbs not functioning including master bath vanity and light fixture over master bath garden tub. Drawers in kitchen and bath cabinets were very difficult to open and some did not have knobs or pulls. Downstairs bedroom did not have a closet. Upstairs closets did not have rods for hanging clothes. Non master baths had only small pedestal sink with no counter space. Certainly a great location but not a very accommodating layout for our group of 8. We would not return to this property.
