Rustic guest cabin set in the high country between Telluride and Ridgway

Situated amongst aspens and pines, and just 40 minutes from Telluride's festivals, The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is fully equipped for those who appreciate simplicity in a rustic setting. Complete with bedroom, kitchenette and bath, this cozy space is kept warm by wood stove and cool by the mountain breeze.

The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is centrally located between Telluride, Ridgway and Ouray on a 10 acre parcel which also houses the main Family Cabin. The Family Cabin is occupied by the owners/caretakers and is situated across the driveway from The BunkHouse. Just west of the Dallas Divide Summit, the property is easily accessed from CO Hwy 62.

The property is quiet and secluded near the end of the road, amongst a mixture of 5 to 40 acre parcels making up the surrounding "neighborhood." There are walking trails around the acreage and along the gravel roads in the subdivision. Property is forested with Ponderosa Pine, Douglas Fir, Gambrel Oak, and Aspen, as well as many wildflowers.
Mountain views are of Hayden Peak, North Pole Peak, and Mount Mary. Wildlife are seen on the property and in the neighborhood. The property has horse shoe pits, corn hole boards, and a sandbox and swing set for children. It is a dog-friendly place. The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is a NO SMOKING property, inside and outside.

The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is 510 square feet with one bedroom/living room combo; wood stove; separate kitchen with dining table and chairs; full bathroom with shower; private deck with forest view. It accommodates two people with one queen size bed and possibly a child on separate sleeping “bunk”. Guest parking is located directly in front of The BunkHouse. There is no cable or satellite TV, but Internet is available. A flat screen TV with built in DVD player is provided. The kitchenette is equipped with dishes, flatware, cooking utensils, pots and pans, coffee pot, electric kettle, microwave, toaster, hot plate, refrigerator, slow cooker, toaster oven, kitchen linens, and paper towels. Guests should plan to bring their own food, drinks, refreshments, and personal toiletries. Bath and bedding linens are provided.

Situated within 30 minutes or less of Telluride, Ridgway and Ouray, The BunkHouse is remote but still makes it easy for festival goers and visitors to access nearby sights, shops and dining. Guests can easily enjoy the great outdoors of the San Juan Mountains by means of hiking, mountain biking, 4-wheel drive excursions, fishing, hunting, photography, etc. The BunkHouse provides an ideal retreat for persons seeking peace, quiet, and privacy in a beautiful mountain setting.

The cabin was great! Beautiful drive in, and the dogs loved romping in the outdoors. Plus, the hosts were incredibly gracious and welcoming. They even stayed up with the lights on when we were getting in late our first night!

The Bunkhouse is a hidden gem that I can’t recommend enough. It’s scenic, serene, and the perfect place to stay in between Telluride and Ouray. The surrounding neighborhood is beautiful with the fall foliage, and right off the Last Dollar Road, which has some of the best fall colors. I loved my stay at this cozy cabin, and plan on coming back!

The deck was a nice place to have coffee in the morning or watch the sunset in the evening. The Bunkhouse is in a quiet location but an easy drive to Telluride and area hiking. The hosts were the best!

We enjoyed our visit so much! Marianne was so hospitable from beginning to end, even leaving us a personalized welcome note. She was extremely helpful in helping us decide how to plan our time there because she is very well-informed about the area. The cabin is adorable and homey, with great little touches in the decorating and theme matching the area. It was a pleasure and I will enjoy going back!

Absolutely amazing place and hosts! They made everything super easy and relaxing. The cabin was clean and cozy, and we loved the area. Our hosts provided lots of amenities and even a little welcome gift for us AND our pups. Located near Ouray, Telluride and Silverton - we got a chance to explore and relax all in one trip. Thank you oh souch for your kindness and care. - The Zelinas

It's lovely and secluded. Plenty of room. A deck out back for watching the stars at night. Sweet host and hostess. A great jump-off point for hikes in the stunning San Juans.

A little slice of Heaven

My wife and I stayed at the Bunkhouse this weekend during a trip for our 6th anniversary. This cabin is nothing short of beautiful. Marianne and Larry were the nicest hosts and definitely put in the extra effort to make the stay comfortable and special. The cabin was super clean and has an awesome view off the back patio. Will definitely stay at the place again in the future.
