The Cabin at Little Ranch

Excellent property-backs up to the San Juan Forest with plenty of hiking. Good security, and cute animals all around. We saw deer, hummingbirds, prairie dogs (marmots?), and other wildlife. 10/10 will stay again.

2nd stay just as amazing as 1st

We enjoyed the first stay so well, we came back!! Quiet, beautiful cabin nestled in the woods! We Loved the porch and the hummingbirds that greeted us each morning. It’s the perfect distance to Durango or Pagosa Springs. The cabin is super clean and cozy. Only a few miles into town to eat best omelette ever at Brenda’s cafe! Thinking of our 3rd stay 🥰

Second year staying at The Little Ranch!! It has become our favorite Colorado spot! It is perfectly situated between Durango, Pagosa Springs & all our favorite lakes & hiking trails. The house is exceptionally clean & private. We enjoy cooking our meals in the evenings & the kitchen has everything we need with the gas grill getting a lot of use! We are looking forward to next year already!!

Quiet Escape, Conveniently Located

This little cabin is cozy, quiet and tidy. Located in a sweet spot just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Durango but close enough... Bayfield is even closer, with a nice grocery store. Well equipped, nicely laid out and very comfortable.

The Little Ranch was PERFECT!! The location was private and quiet. We ate breakfast on the deck each morning with humming birds and all kinds of birds buzzing around and singing. James thought of everything for this VRBO - an air purifier, outdoor heat element for warmth and s'mores, a hot tub, kitchen amply supplied, picnic table and washer set-up out front. The cabin was clean and perfect to come home to after off-roading all day around the area. We definitely hope to return!

enjoyed our stay at the cabin

My wife and I had a great experience staying at the cabin near Bayfield, Co. The location was fantastic. We had access to hiking nearby and was close to Durango. The cabin is located in the forest which made it very quiet. James was a great host. He gave us good suggestions for restaurants and things to do in the area. The cabin was very clean and was well equipped with all the essentials for a nice stay. We would definitely go back there.
