Home sweet home!
Our condo was clean and had everything we needed to cook and wash our clothes. The Rio Grand river is right out your back door and just the sound is amazing. The condo is right across the street from revolution rail and accesse to utv/ATV trails without having to trailer to a place to unload as long as you get your flag and sticker from the visitor center. It's also close the the local liquor store.The manager Beau was very friendly and suggested areas to explore and made sure we were enjoying our stay very nice guy. Will definitely be staying here again.

right on river
the best part is the location. Right on the river and right off the highway like right off Super easyto find. Needs a bit of upkeep. The furnace filter was very dirty there was dust in heating vents and everyone in my party was sneezing and sneezing. Beds comfortable.

Just Ok
This place was a disappointment to us. It was extremely basic. It is located in a bit of a “rustic” area and the place was very basic. The 2 large dread animal heads were seemingly out of place. They took over the living area. Seems like this place needs a good update. The FP did not work, the carpeting is old and the place is a bit dreary. Perhaps, this os best suited for hunters or fishermen. The lake right outside was a nice touch but we were there to ski. Overall, I would say it is overpriced for what it is.

Family Ski Trip
Great family Spring Break ski trip. The condo is in a great location in South Fork. Easy access to everything. We had 2 adults and 4 teens and it was all we needed. Only a 20 min drive to the slopes! The condo had everything we needed and slept 6 very comfortbly!

Nice view on the river
We had a nice two night stay. Plenty of space, full kitchen, washer and dryer were welcome after long travels and camping. Internet was super fast for work needs. Only complaint would be the large amount of live and dead flies in the rental. A fly swatter should be included. Also, this is a multi family unit so you will have neighbors.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Communication
I'm sorry to have to give this condo a poor rating, because the condo itself is fine and the setting lovely. But the property is badly let down by the property manager, Beau Meyer Reality. We arrived on an unusually cold June day (40's at night) to find neither the heat nor the fireplace working. We called the management company and were rudely told that "we didn't need heat, it was summer." After some discussion we were told by the person on the phone that he would call us back. (Not sure if this was Beau himself.) Which, after an hour, he hadn't done, and clearly never intended to. When we called the second time we were again told that we didn't need heat but he finally agreed to come over, which, not surprisingly now, he also failed to do. We have rented many properties, but we have never received such rude, poor service. If the management company was unaware of the lack of heating, but attempted to make some accomodation, we would have understood. But the failure to meet the promise to first call back and then to come over, we found completely unacceptable. While the property is run by Beau Meyer Reality, I cannot recommend it.

As advertised
Plenty of space for our family of 5 and easy drive to wolf creek ski resort. Big living room and good sized kitchen and dining for at home meals. My one complaint was the neighbors above us were quite loud with kids running around and I could even hear their conversations; must be thin walls.
