Pet friendly 1 story home with big mountain views!

AshleyRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Great house in a great location! Plenty of private space in the house for two couples and a child. Everything we needed for a week stay was there. The two car garage was great to park in! The neighborhood was very quiet. If we plan another trip to Pagosa, we would def stay here again!

This was a fantastic condo. Extremely clean (no mold or past pet issues). Such a livable space with everything you could need. Beautiful surroundings, easy to walk into town on the picturesque River walk. End unit so great views and no neighbor noise. Could not ask for anything more. Will definitely be back.

ThomasRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Everyone had a great time. I was shocked how close we were to the springs. It was a great combination of quiet and nature while being accessible to any of the needs we'd have in the city. I especially enjoyed sitting on the balcony by the river.

Talisman’s Amazing Views: Walk to Uptown-Sleeps 4

AnnaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We loved staying at Anthony's place. It's the PERFECT location (in my opinion) in Pagosa as it's almost right next to City Market, next to trails to walk our dog and right by the Rec Center. The apartment is a little dated with the kitchen appliances but everything worked and it was very clean which I am picky about. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. The bathrooms and carpet were spotless. There were nice little touches as a hook for kitchen towels, a humidifier in the master bedroom, blankets and bowls for our dog, which were wonderful and very much appreciated.

Lakeside Lodge-We Have it All!

KrisRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful home on the lake! Our favorites were the very comfortable beds, the 2 fireplaces and the huge sectional in the living room. Our family of 7 had enough room while still feeling cozy over Christmas. Saw the hot air balloons out the back window every morning. Highly recommend!

MorganRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Very nice place. Would stay here again. Kitchen was pretty well stocked. There was coffee and all spices, oil etc for making food. location is awesome, great views and close to everything. Parking was right infront of the door and made for easy entrance and exit. There is a nice foyer for storing your winter items and boots. The fire place was very nice for the cold days.

South Downtown Pagosa Springs 3BR/2BA Home

MichelleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is a very comfortable place to stay. Very very well equipped kitchen, comfortable furniture, good wifi, friendly and responsive hosts. The garage is a real plus, especially in the winter. The only less than ideal aspect was the immediate surroundings - there is a view of the mountains in the distance, but when you look out the windows mostly what you see are parking lots. This wasn't a problem exactly, the neighborhood seemed safe enough and it was very quiet, but it isn't the most aesthetic place we've ever stayed. Even so, we would happily stay here again.

Great Airbnb, and great visit! Jeff and Cheryl were awesome to work with, the house was incredibly clean, and a perfect size for our visit with our two adult children.

Michelle was a wonderful host! She was very responsive to our crews and the needs especially with the weather. The crews were very appreciative for the snow removal after a long day not having to come home to do it. Highly recommend this gem, hope to be back in the area again soon and that the unit is available!

Peregrine Retreat

ChristianRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay at Julia’s place! The home was super clean and looked just like the pictures. The views of the pond and watching the airplanes land at the airport were such a cool bonus. Julia was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. The fireplace made the space extra cozy, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches like a list of recommended restaurants, board games, and puzzles. The bathrooms were spotless, and while the beds weren’t the most comfortable, they were totally fine for a short stay. One of the highlights of our trip was visiting the nearby hot springs—such a great experience! Overall, we had a fantastic time and would definitely come back. Thanks, Julia!

Your guide to South Fork

Welcome to South Fork

Tiny South Fork is surrounded by scenic wonders. This remote mountain town resides on the mighty Rio Grande River, whose nearly 1,900 miles stretch from the Colorado Rockies to the Gulf of Mexico, and is nestled in the vast expanse of the Rio Grande National Forest. It is the gateway community for the Continental Divide Trail, a rugged 3,100-mile passage that links Canada and Mexico and crosses five states. If you prefer to drive, South Fork sits on the 117-mile Silver Thread Historic Byway. The loop connects the town to nearby historic towns, winds through mesas and canyons, rises above glorious river vistas, and runs through verdant forests.

In the summer, South Fork is a hub for outdoor recreation of all kinds, including hiking, rafting, horseback riding, fishing, and mountain biking. In the winter it's a secluded base for visitors to Wolf Creek Ski Area, who flock here to play in the more than 430 inches of snow that typically blanket its slopes every year. A former timber town, South Fork’s streets are lined with outdoors outfitters and eateries serving up hearty fare to fuel your hike or ski run.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in South Fork

Summer is high season in South Fork, and the small town’s numbers swell with visitors who come to enjoy all the outdoor activities the area has to offer. The weather is warm and sunny, although mountain evenings can still be crisp, and summer thunderstorms are common. In July South Fork celebrates Logger Days with arts and crafts vendors, live music, and axe throwing and chainsaw carving competitions. In the fall, crowds and temperatures drop and the surrounding forests are dotted with brilliant autumn leaves. In winter, visitors make their way up the mountain to enjoy the fresh snow, and in spring, the melt allows local waterfalls to put on a spectacular show.


Top things to do in South Fork

Rio Grande National Forest

Encompassing 1.83 million acres, the wild and pristine Rio Grande National Forest is so much more than trees — although the trees are spectacular. The park is home to high desert, mountain peaks soaring more than 14,000 feet into the sky, volcanic rock formations, and alpine lakes. Although a grizzly bear hasn’t been seen here since 1979, evidence suggests this vast wilderness may be the last place these magnificent animals live in Colorado.

Creede Underground Mining Museum

Hop on the Silver Thread Scenic Byway and visit nearby Creede and its unique museum, a recreation of an underground mine that opened in the 1990s. The 600-foot subterranean space includes exhibitions on mining, antique excavation equipment, and a community center with a fully stocked bar.

Great Sand Dunes National Park

Drive just an hour east to marvel at the astoundingly diverse landscapes to be found here. Against a backdrop of alpine peaks, vast sand dunes — some as tall as 750 feet — rise from the ground, crisscrossed by flowing streams. For a truly unique experience, plan ahead and buy or rent a sandboard at a local retailer (they aren’t available at the park) and go surfing on the dunes.
