HOME AWAY FROM HOME
My wife and I with our new puppy loved it!!! The barn is one of a kind. Chris had the lawn mowed and welcomed us like family. He is more than willing to give you your space but once you meet him you catch yourself taking all of his time. We had great conversations. The creek and his swimming hole were very nice, but with the new puppy we spent more time in his back yard. It rained both nights we were there the sleep was fantastic. We explored the area for a half a day, but mostly spent the time at the barn. We will definitely book another stay next year, but for more days. We appreciate the beauty of the barn and the area. THANK YOU CHRIS!!!!

Lovely space in a quiet rural area
Small, clean and modern, the interior would be perfect for a couple or a family with kids. It's a lovely area south of Pagosa Springs. The river is a short walk down a hill and there's a covered area where you can sit or even have a bbq. You can also take a quick dip, not really a swimming hole but it's pleasant to just sit down in the water and cool off. When I rented the house, I didn't realize how close the owner's house is, like 10 feet. It wasn't a problem, I barely saw the owner and the house is angled in such a way that it feels private, but still... A dedicated outside seating area with chairs and a table would be a most welcome improvement.

Exceeding Expectations
Everything about our stay exceeded expectations! The barn was clean, cute and perfectly equipped for our family of 4. Our two boys were down at the river from sun up to sun down every day fishing, swimming, tubing, and catching crawdads. Chris was the most kind, welcoming host. We got caught in a rain storm down by the river and by the time we got back to the barn I was covered in mud. It was hilarious other than the fact that those were my only shoes for the trip. After borrowing my husband’s shoes for dinner in town, I came back to find Chris had cleaned my shoes, wagon, and other muddy things. We were traveling with our dog and while Pagosa is dog accommodating, Chris’s property is dog heaven! I really think, given the choice, our dog would have stayed😅 We pick a different mountain town every year to visit but would definitely return to Pagosa just to stay here again. Could not recommend this host/property more!

Chris is an incredible host. His property is located close enough to Pagosa to enjoy all that it has to offer while affording the opportunity to get away to a peaceful hideaway. We loved our stay. Thank you for sharing your place.

Restful Mountain Retreat
Our family spent 4 days at The Barn and it was just what we needed. The open space and proximity to the river were awesome for us and our 2 kiddos to enjoy outdoor fun. We will remember Chris and his hospitality when we return to Pagosa.

Great relaxing dog friendly vacation!
Everything was just as advertised. Peaceful, relaxing, private, clean, beautiful setting. Chris is a Hoot. He is available if you have any questions or need anything and he gives you all the space and privacy you want. Very dog friendly, Vita, my Czech Shepherd, loved Chris and his friends. Located a few minutes outside Pagosa. Perfect location to go in any direction out on day trips. Great Direct TV, WiFi, and cell with Wifi all were exceptional for a rural area. We have been staying at VRBO for years and Chris is definitely the best host we have ever met. We couldn't have asked for anything better than this, it was an excellent vacation! We will definitely be back. Cheryl and Vita

Just what the doctor ordered...
We had a great time, just not a long enough stay. Chris was a fabulous host and the conversations over hunting was icing on the cake. The cabin was perfect for what we needed and the location provided for the relaxation we were looking for.....sitting by the river while soaking up some late Fall sunshine took relaxation to another level. There were ALL positives and NO negatives for our visit and we definitely plan on visiting again. Thanks Chris !

Pet friendly Colorado paradise
Chris has done a wonderful job creating a special place to visit in Colorado. “Off the grid” in comfort. Very clean and comfortable space. Chris is a great host. Although his home is very close to the rental we didn’t feel like he was intrusive. We did enjoy talking with him and meeting a few of his friends that were over one afternoon. We had our 1 1/2 year old standard poodle with us and she loved the freedom this property gave her. Swimming in the river and chasing butterflies. There was a deck overlooking the river behind the property to use and enjoy the cool clear water. (Bring water shoes). Watching the hundreds of hummingbirds at the feeders was so entertaining! Secluded location was great for star gazing. If your tired of the beautiful views all around outside or weather isn’t cooperating there is a large TV and comfortable couch to use in the living room. We didn’t have cell connection with Verizon but Wi-Fi calling worked. Hope to see you again Chris. Look us up if your ever in Oklahoma!

Awesome host and property
We had the best time. Chris made us feel so welcome. Our barn cottage was cozy, clean and well done. We had everything we needed to make a wonderful meal. Our host even supplied the meat! While asking him about things to do on the property, we hit it off with him and asked if he’d hang out with us. His friendly, easy going personality helped us feel right at home. He let us know if we preferred, he would “disappear”. He understands some folks visit to get away and be alone. We however feel like we had a great Vrbo experience and made our first friend in Pagosa Springs. This is a wonderful property to relax, fish, soak in the river, float, archery, disc golf, enjoy nature, bbq, take a beautiful walk, etc. only 15 minutes to bars and restaurants too. We also loved that Chris would allow our dog to enjoy the property too. He’s pet friendly! So…if you want quiet seclusion or a party on the patio, this is the place for you.
