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.

This cabin is perfection if you’re looking for comfort and tranquillity. The setting is picturesque in the woods with a lovely deck to watch sunset on. There were plenty of linens, nice bedding, and such cute thoughtful touches such as towels by the front door if you have a dog! Would love to come back here and stay next time I’m in the area. The hosts are just lovely, kind, friendly people. Great spot!

Great location that was surrounded by trees and mountain views! It was a secluded area with no traffic noise. Charming little cabin that had everything we needed. The hosts live on sight and we're very welcoming. They knew a lot about the area which helped us in planning our activities. Definitely recommend! A

Bunk house
My husband and our dog stayed at the bunk house for 2 days. It was a wonderful spot and especially great to have the hosts in the house next to us. Our hosts showed us around and gave us great advice on where to go in our exploration of Telluride and the San Juan Mountains.

These property and the hosts left me speechless! It was such a pleasant stay and so worth the drive. The views you get from this location are truly like no other. Larry and Marianne are the sweetest hosts and I promise you'll come back just to see them. It was extremely cozy and the wood stove made for a romantic evening on a chilly night.

Fantastic Cabin in the Mountains
I had an incredible Vrbo stay! The hosts, Larry and Marianne, were outstanding, providing exceptional hospitality throughout my visit. The breathtaking views from the property were a highlight, and its ideal location between several charming towns made it the perfect base for exploring the area.

Wonderful cabin!
It was a perfect small cabin for my wife and two dogs. It was very well furnished. Larry and Marinne were perfect hosts. They were very polite and accommodating. The cabin was located near the Last Dollar jeep trail and other great forest service roads. Ridgway, Ouray, and Telluride were nearby as well.

The most peaceful, relaxing stay
My husband and I stayed at the bunkhouse during our Colorado roadtrip in late September. It was the perfect spot to recharge and get a good night's sleep. The cabin was absolutely adorable, comfortable, super clean and the most magical location back in the woods. We enjoyed the dirt roads and mountain views on the property as well as the extremely thoughtful owners. We would love to stay again.... but longer next time!

Such a beautiful area and property. The views are amazing. Loved how quiet it was. Marianne is such a sweetheart. She was so helpful on our trip to Telluride. It was our anniversary and she gave us a beautiful vase that she made. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property.

Perfect Cabin in the Woods
The cabin had rustic charm and was perfect for trying to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. We enjoyed our evening wondering the property and checking out the bird houses and the bear poop. Also, we were able to see a lone doe mule deer quietly grazing past our open window. We would stay there again. Awesome!

This was absolutely the cutest most coziest little cabin. We stay in many VRBO‘s and I absolutely love this one. Larry and Marianne were so helpful and so polite. Their generosity went above and beyond. I will be staying there again. Jim and tammy.
