Loved the Red Roan Ranch! The accommodations were perfect, the views phenomenal! Everything that we needed was available plus more!Appreciated the lovely sunsets and star filled nights..bonus was the horses and the blue birds that thrived in the fields.Thank you Tom and Karly for a great 3 night stay!
Our very first stay in a bnb and the stay was amazing and the hosts very sweet. Very very clean. Needs a couple rails in the bathroom for handicap visitors. Smelled a bit of cigarette smoke but not bad. Very nice kitchen and the views are amazing!

Felt very private and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay.
Quiet property, Bungalow was very clean with all the routine “stuff” to make the stay comfortable. Great location, close to Mesa Verde and the town of Cortez.
We were very happy with the place, clean and quiet. We had a very friendly hosts and the place was equipped with every necessary items that you should have need.
My husband and I stayed here for 10 days while we explored the Four Corners area. The location, accommodations, the hosts, and the proximity to all the Four Corners has to offer could not have been better. We cannot imagine a better place to stay.
My wife and I stayed for 4 days and had a wonderful, peaceful time on the ranch! Very beautiful area, and the guest house is clean, quiet, and comfortable. Very relaxing after many days in the hot southern Colorado sun!
A wonderful stay! Quiet, clean and a very friendly host. Just far enough out of Cortez to relax and get away from the traffic and noise.
We would highly recommend staying here & will keep this on our list if we travel in that area again. Thank you to the hosts for providing a very accurate description and a truly enjoyable stay.
This horse ranch was extremely clean and beautiful, and we were able to take a walk around the property and see the cows and horses. The room with spotlessly clean and our teenage son slept on a futon bed and it was great as well. Very comfortable wonderful place to stay highly recommend! The owners communicated with us quickly and were kind!
Very pleasant communication with the owners. Check-in couldn't have been easier (I just walked in.) The apartment was clean, quiet and comfortable with quick access to town. I'm thrilled to have found it and hope to stay here again.
We really enjoyed our stay at the RedRoan ranch bungalow outside Cortez, CO. It was absolutely perfect for myself, wife and our 2 puppy dogs. The bungalow was immaculately clean, bright, tastefully decorated, had everything needed and was comfortable. Tom and Karly were wonderful hosts and even handled a couple special requests for us. We enjoyed watching the horses and cattle and the location just a few miles outside Cortez was great - only about a 7 or 8 minute drive to get to numerous restaurants, grocery stores,etc. And we also appreciated the quietness at the bungalow. We would have no hesitation and would definitely stay at this property again if in the area.
My husband, two kids, and I LOVED our ranch stay! From the Mountain Views to the western decor to the pleasant cooling and sweet town of Cortez, we couldn’t be happier. The owners were helpful and sweet. We loved being inspired by their adventures on their blog! We set the kids up on blow up mattresses in the living room and we slept in the room.
We stayed her two nights while visiting Mesa Verde NP. I was about 20 minutes to the entrance. We were able to do the tour without the dogs and pick them up for the afternoon of stopping at the beautiful vistas. The apartment had everything we needed for our short stay. It was comfortable and quiet. Will recommend it to friends.
We had a wonderful time during our stay. Everything was clean and well-stocked, and the location was beautiful and private. We would definitely book again!
