La Hacienda BV- Cabin on 2 wooded acres.

JoanRating, 5 stars5 days ago

My sibings and I, three of us ranging in age between 76 and 82, spend three nights at Julian's Hacienda BV, in mid June 2025. This 3 bedroom house has a spacious kitchen with a pub level table just steps from the stove, for in kitchen meals, seating 6. The living room couch and TV are close to the kitchen, making it possible to cook, eat, and converse while keeping an eye on the programming, if desired. We really should have spent more time on the patio, but it was only 10 minutes into town, and only 15 minutes to Cottonwood Hot Springs. Cottonwood is a very rustic, friendly, informal place to enjoy the mineral waters ... definitely not your high end Hilton environment, but clean and unique. Near Cottonwood, we toured the new hot springs called Charlotte's. This facility opened in 2024, and features a gigantic greenhouse, with a waterfall, and resident parrots and iguana. Traversing the greenhouse, one finds three beautiful, concrete pools that could easily accommodate 8 or more

Stone's Throw Retreat

JaimieRating, 5 stars6 days ago

We had a wonderful stay - home was clean and well appointed, the provided coffee was delicious, and the location was perfect for access to Buena Vista, hot springs, and St Elmo. Beds are nice, firm enough but not too firm, and there are extra blankets if it gets chilly. The views were so beautiful. Great stop along the way on a road trip! If you are light sensitive, consider bringing an eye mask. If you’re adults thinking about sharing the bunk bed, that may not work out - but we belatedly found that they had provided an air mattress! Hosts are super responsive. Would rebook in a heartbeat. Thank you for the lovely stay!

MeganRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

My sister and I had a wonderful experience with Doug and felt right at home at his little rustic cabin nestled in an Aspen grove by the creek. The surrounding area is beautiful and Doug was very helpful with local recommendations. Bonus points for helping us load the car after I came down with appendicitis on our last day and had to have an appendectomy, which limited my lifting capabilities. Thanks, Doug! We’ll definitely look at coming back soon! And hopefully I’ll not lose another organ while I’m there! :-)

A spacious living area is highlighted by a modern fireplace with a wooden mantel. A large wall-mounted television is positioned above the mantel. Comfortable seating options include a sectional sofa wrapped in neutral tones and a vintage-style armchair, creating a cozy atmosphere.

Views are amazing from everywhere in the house! Furnishings are very nice and comfortable, kitchen extremely well equipped. The house is so well done inside and out you feel like you are in an Architecture Digest magazine the whole time! Host is extremely responsive and helpful. Could not have asked for more! We had our kids and grandkids with us and it was just perfect for us. Location is excellent as there are things to see and do in both directions and great restaurants as well. Highly recommend both the host and the property!
