Pagosa Lakefront Home w/ Hot Tub, A/C, & Canoe!

MaryEllenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was our second time staying at this lake house. Definitely the best places we’ve stayed in Pagosa. The house fits our family of 5 wonderfully, and the lake has so much to offer. The location is quick into town, but also a nice drive into Durango. We plan to stay again as soon as we can!

3BD Mtn Escape | AC | HotTub | King Beds | FirePit

RyanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Such a great house in a beautiful place! We stayed here for a long weekend, and it was perfect. The house is amazing and the surroundings are gorgeous. The outdoor area, hot tub, ping pong, games, and kitchen make it the perfect place if you want to stay and hang out, but it is also super close to Pagosa, so there's plenty to do. We'll definitely stay here again!

Homey 1BR Riverfront Dog Friendly | Hot Tub

RayRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My 2 grandkids (8-10) and I stayed 2 nights in the Coyote cabin and couldn’t be more impressed. The cabin was immaculate. Was in a fairly private area next to river. The kids enjoyed the paddle boats at the pond and we All enjoyed the hot tube. Very very happy with our stay and will definitely be staying there again when in the area.

4 bed Cabin- next to Natl Forest; skiing, fishing

CraigRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Great place to stay. Four of us stayed for a week and traveled all over Colorado and New Mexico with this as our home base. Very comfortable and clean. Great Prairie dog village out back for entertainment along with the visiting deer. Cooked some local bison brats and burgers on the grill. Fully stocked home with all the amenities and more. Well be back sometime for sure.
A charming townhouse sits along the banks of the Rio Grande, with a gently sloping landscape leading to the water's edge. Towering trees provide shade to the property, and rolling hills can be seen in the background under a clear blue sky.

Inviting 1BR Riverfront | Fireplace | Balcony

CindyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Beautiful location, small town with local amenities was easily accessible. Very peaceful with the river right outside the backdoor. The townhouse guidelines were easy to find and understand; very reasonable expectations from the owners. Everything was very clean. The primary bathroom steam-shower was amazing. Worthy of note is the living areas, other than the kitchen, are all upstairs. My 64-year old ankles rebelled a bit at all the traversing up and down. Also, the lighting situation was a bit frustrating. The lights were programmed with multi-button keypads which were located throughout the townhome. We had to have a flashlight to figure out how to turn the lights on. A 5-star location and we appreciate the owner’s generosity.
A spacious wooden deck is presented, featuring a swing chair and a large table. The surrounding railings are visible, alongside lush trees and mountain views in the background. Natural light highlights the deck’s warm tones, creating an inviting outdoor space.

2BR cabin with spacious deck & great views

TroyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We spent a week here in March with our adult daughter while looking to purchase a home in South Fork. This cozy cabin provided the comforts we needed at a good value for the price. The gas fireplace kept us cozy when a snowstorm arrived, and we found the kitchen equipping sufficiently to cook some meals at home, instead of eating out all the time. The fiber optic internet was adequate for our daughter to do some work for her job, and we enjoyed watching a movie on the TV. The best of all though was the view of the Sangre de Cristo mountains, seeing the deer, walking into the national forest, and getting to know South Fork. Thank you for the great stay.

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.
