Fantastic stay. Did a scavenger hunt that was thoughtful and fun to do as a group. Would stay here again!

The Wrangler's Roost was a great fit for our family of 6 while we were visiting the area! The kids loved the game room and being able to get outside. The location worked well for us as we visited Mesa Verde and Hovenweep.

Wir waren eine Nacht bei JanElle und haben es sehr genossen. Von dem Grundstück schaut man auf weite Felder und hat die Hügel im Hintergrund. Wir haben den Abend auf der Veranda verbracht und die Aussicht genossen. Für Selbstversorger gibt es ein Walmart ganz in der Nähe. In dem Haus gibt es eine gut ausgestattete Küche und Fernseher sowie einen Spielraum.
Wir würden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen!

JanElle's place feels so cozy! The rustic Americana vibe just makes you melt when you've been traveling all day. We had to make a last-minute reservation, but JanElle was super accomodating!

The Mountain View Lodge was a lovely property, and proved to be a choice location while traveling through Cortez. The Wranglers Roost was plenty comfortable for our overnight stay - bedding options, space, and value were a win. We greatly appreciated the service and offerings JanElle and Todd provide, and we'd look forward to an opportunity to stay again while in the area.

This is a lovely lodge with a great location.

This was the perfect stop for our group of 3 families- including 7 kids! Our kids only wanted to hang out at the house instead of doing all the amazing things offered around Mesa Verde. The large gorgeous front yard was perfect for soccer, football, or anything else our kids could conjure up. The game room was also a huge hit. Clearly, the hosts have kept families and kids in mind when staying here, and we appreciated it!

We were looking for a simple place to rest during the night and came across this most wonderful listing ! With an incredible view, very comfortable beds and a delicious breakfast waiting for us in the morning. Thank you very much for our stay, we only regret not staying longer

Such a fun unique stay! Great value, especially for families. Our private “suite” was very roomy— 2 private bedrooms plus another semi private space with a single bed, plus a large entry hall and living room! It felt like an entire 2 bedroom apartment. Breakfast was amazing and really contributes to the warm hospitality. We enjoyed our conversations with the hosts and learned a lot about the area. The views are beautiful. We played some ping pong and a board game. It was nice to see a true family business with the kids pitching in too. A great Airbnb experience. Highly recommended!

This house is fantastic! It was filled with special touches including a game room and toy box for the kiddos. The view was stunning. We loved the view from the front window. JanElle was kind enough to make sure the great room was warm. We would definitely stay here again!

Wow

The place was absolutely perfect for our needs - a suite of rooms that easily slept mom & dad & 3 full grown kids comfortably - could have even fit 2 more in a pinch! Breakfast was amazing! The view from the front porch is beautiful. We were just sorry we couldn’t stay longer to enjoy the ping pong, corn hole & foosball!

Beautiful area and beautiful house! Wonderful service. Will stay again if ever back in the area!

A cozy stay on our way through the area. Great location to town.

JanElle's place was great! Spacious and very clean.

We loved staying here! The pictures don’t do it justice. It was spacious, peaceful, and had beautiful views. The hosts were kind and responsive and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others!

We had a multi generational family stay here and it was great. Kids loved the foosball, games, tire swing and all the open space to run. The place was comfortable and plenty of room. 10/10 would stay here again. Highly recommend.

Excellent host, excellent breakfast, and excellent location. Just 15 minutes from the entrance to Mesa Verde. I highly recommend JanElle’s place.

Wonderful hosts! Wonderful breakfast each morning! JanElle sure does know how to cook! Our rooms were clean and perfect for our stay!

**Look no further.** This place is awesome. The breakfast JanElle cooked was amazing. We had a wonderful time. Game room was perfect for the kids. Convenient to town, yet out of town. WE WILL BE BACK!!

Great location with a wonderful view of the mountains. Janelle was a great host and made an amazing breakfast for everyone in the morning!

JaNelle was amazing and so is her property. Had a wonderful stay!!

Talk about some amazing hospitality! This was such a cute setup on a little farm with an awesome views! Jana makes the most delicious homemade muffins and it was so nice to wake up to a homemade breakfast. We felt so cozy here. My son also forgot his stuffed animal there and Jana was kind enough to offer mailing it to us. We will definitely be back next time we are in town!

Todd and JanElle's place is great! Plenty of room for large families/groups. They are both very kind and helpful, and readily available if you should need anything. You will really enjoy their place and the beauty of Colorado!

Older place, clean, well kept. Great game room and toys for the kids. We did several things in Durango which was a bit of a drive (43 miles) but doable.
Had 14 of us and all comfortable. Thanks Janelle and Todd.

Our stay was very quiet and relaxing. We loved using the game room, and the kitchen was stocked with some useful necessities. The house has a beautiful view, and the bed was very comfortable.

Had a wonderful time at JanElle’s place! A perfect stay to come back to after the day exploring Mesa Verde National park! We saw a beautiful sunset and some deer from the porch to end the night!

Great casual place for the family. Enjoyed the large common area especially the porch with its view of the mountains. My daughter loved the ping pong and foos ball tables in the game room. JanElle was very friendly and helpful and breakfast was yummy.

JanElle’s place is clean and convenient with great access to Mesa Verde NP. Would definitely stay again!

So kind and hospitable!!

Definitely coming back again. Perfect location-based for daily excursions.

Great space to enjoy a great place. Located in a quiet farm community you are still only 20 minutes from the Mesa Verde park entrance, 7 minutes from one of Phil’s World mountain biking trailheads, and just a few minutes away from restaurants and grocery stores including a Walmart. At the home we enjoyed watching the deer and blue birds, playing games in the large kitchen space, and the kids loved the tire swing and toys. There was a lot of space for having private areas and plenty of beds. The beds were relatively comfortable and the home was clean. Our biggest pros were location and amount of space and our only complaints were small toilets, no smoke detectors we could see, and a couple rooms that were hard to cool. The hosts are phenomenal and answered all our questions quick and easy. You should know that there are others that live in the building but the space is well separated and you won’t even know they are there. Their accommodations are completely separate. I would recommend you consider this space if you are bringing a large family and especially if you want moderately separate spaces for multiple families.

Generally a good place to stay, however the headboard on the bed should be swapped out for a smaller one that allows the bed to sit against the wall as it is very small and feels too easy to fall off because of it not being against the wall. The ac unit is so loud that it's difficult to sleep through so I had to turn it off. the covers onthe bed are too small and made for a less than ideal nights sleep . the shower and bathroom are well maintained and easy to use.

This was a great place for us to meet up with friends. The common areas comfortably accommodated several guests. Our suite worked well for us too. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the front porch with mountain views. We hope to stay again.

We had an wonderful trip. The house is very nice and spacious, lots of room to move around. The Owners are amazing and gave some great local food recommendations. We were taking a snowboarding trip in Colorado and the this house was an amazing place to relax at after coming back from the mountain.

The hosts are very kind and friendly, making you feel at home during the stay. The common area downstairs is a nice touch as it gives the opportunity to interact with other guests while you make coffee (should you so choose). The view is incredible with a patio to sit on while you look over the valley.

We loved staying here! Dolores is such a fun, cute little town and the house was situated in a great spot for seeing all the sights we wanted to hit.
The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The kitchen and bathrooms were extremely well stocked and there was plenty of extra bedding and things all around. The kids LOVED the toy room and we loved that we could shut the door and get some peace and quiet while they played. They spent most of the time on the playground, tire swing, or watching for deer on the porch. We had plenty of space in the kitchen (2 large tables), and loved that we could have a space for each family we were traveling with. We spent delightful evenings on the porch, and would love to return.
The only thing on our wish list that was missing was a washer and dryer.

Wonderful place to relax and enjoy the mountain views! If you have a large gathering this is a great place to stay.

JanElle is an awesome host! Very accomodating. The property is beautiful. She even made fresh muffins in thr morning for us. Will stay again. Family loved the games and big yard and all of the wildlife. Plus the amazing views. Give it a look!

This was a great place for a large group!
