Cortez House | Historic Renovated Home on 300 Acre Ranch - Hot Tub/Pool Table/Trails

4 Bedroom House in Cortez, Hesperus

4WD/AWD is required in winter (Dec - mid March).
Embrace the beautiful outdoors at our property (Rancho Sendero Correo) where wildlife, scenery, and serenity abound. Our 4 bedroom / 3.5 Bathroom historic home was recently remodeled and outfitted with high end furnishings. The history of the home dates back to the late 1800s as the area's stagecoach and post office stop along Cherry Creek with a pond, irrigated pastures, pine-studded ridges, and mountain views. The home has been outfitted to be the ultimate vacation rental with King beds, pool table, hot tub, two living spaces, Roku Streaming TV, high speed WIFI and streaming, fully stocked kitchen and wrap around deck with comfy outdoor furniture. There is no garage access.
Located on over 300 acres of lush Southwestern Colorado landscape, your possibilities for relaxation and adventure are unlimited. Spend your morning sipping on coffee at the breakfast bar, in front of the fireplace, or walking along the hiking/mountain biking trails laid out by Durango Trails, a local nonprofit trails organization. Winter activities include opportunities for snowshoeing, sledding, and cross-country skiing in the 38-acre meadow. There is also a 9 hold frisbee golf course on the property.
With open scenery and views, you’ll never miss a sunrise or sunset casting an alpine glow on the surrounding landscapes
Historic downtown Durango is only 20 minutes away while the smaller, but equally charming town of Mancos is just 13 minutes away.
Bed Configuration:
Main Bedroom: California King (Main Floor)
2nd Bedroom: King (Second Floor)
3rd Bedroom: King and Bunk (Second Floor)
4th Bedroom Cupola Tower: Bunk and Twin Bed (Third Floor - Up Spiral Staircase)
This home is pet friendly! We allow a maximum of 2 dogs max and the pet fee is $40/day (for a max $250 per stay).
Note there is also a 2 bed/ 1Bath guest house on the property that is also a vacation rental approximately 50 yards from the cabin. As such, you may encounter other guests enjoying the pond, trails, and meadows, unless you opt to rent the entire ranch for your visit. Also, please note this is a working ranch and you may see ranch hands and other workers on the 300-acre property during your stay, but we will always do our best to allow for your privacy to the best of our abilities so you can fully enjoy your time here. We are continuing to make improvements with future plans in progress for the historic barn renovation to host events, additional construction of more cabins to host additional guests, and miles of hiking, biking, and cross-country trails.
Book at least a week and a 10% discount is automatically applied (Excludes Christmas/New Years).
Stay with us and we offer DISCOUNTS on both summer (white water rafting, horseback riding, etc.) and winter (ski/snowboard rentals, sleigh rides, snowmobile tours, etc.) activities.
