Great Family Home

Peaceful Pines Lodge was perfect for our large family. It easily slept 12 people. This home is in an area with other houses but you don’t feel like it because of all the trees. It’s super peaceful and amazingly quiet. We will be booking for next year.

Christmas Ski Trip

The property was perfect! It looks exactly like it does in the pictures. The hot tub was the highlight for all of the 18-21-year-olds! The huge table in the family area is perfect for meals and games for large groups. The fireplace warms up the living room quickly and provides a cozy environment. There are lots of rooms and beds for a large group. We loved every minute of our stay!

good cabin for a family

Location was ok. The manager of this cabin was amazing and quick to reply with any question and concerns I had. We had a few issues like the dishwasher did not work the Hot tub was a little dirt for my taste. Just some little things. But she did send someone out to look at both of them. The beds were not comfortable at all. Everyone complained about the beds. But every cabin I have stayed at in South Fork the bed are the same way.

Pet friendly

Owner messaged day of arrival “small issue, dishwasher is not working “. There was a dog smell in the house- I did not know it was “pet friendly “ or I would not have booked here. Upstairs bathroom was not comfortable for adults to shower- bedrooms were dark, gross carpet and dog and human hair found in a bunk bed. I can’t get the smell out of may nostrils- can’t wait to get home and wash EVERYTHING:(

Perfect mountain retreat

Communication was spectacular throughout process. House was well furnished for a multi-family getaway. Comfortable beds. Close to town, but had a feeling of quiet seclusion. The little neighborhood was quaint. Mule deer roamed the streets and a quick walk down to the river was picturesque.

Relaxing stay!

We had such a fantastic stay here. It was exactly as described and kitchen was nicely stocked. Our family of 2 adults, 2 kids and 2 dogs had plenty of space to spread out and relax. We did hiking, trail rides, went to the Sand Dunes, explored near by towns etc. Highly recommend this property.

Amazing Family Trip

This awesome property is located in a great neighborhood just outside of South Fork, within a minute walk to a beautiful river. We had a short drive to Beaver Creek Reservoir and Big Meadow Reservoir . The hidden gem is Million Lake, just before you get to Beaver Creek. The cabin was very roomy and comfy, not to mention it had everything you might need for your stay. We will definitely book our trip here again next year.

Wonderful Retreat!

My family of 5 joined our friends, a family of 6, to ski Wold Creek. We stayed at the Peaceful Pines Lodge and had a wonderful time. The owners were easy to work with and very responsive to any issue. The house is spacious and comfortable and well appointed. They had all the basic necessities available. A fantastic place to stay in a lovely area!

Cabin Stay

The cabin was perfect for Thanksgiving dinner! It was quite spacious overall. The living room and the large dining table had enough room for everyone in our large family. There were enough comfortable beds for everyone. The hot tub was a plus! We enjoyed the firepit, and even managed to see part of the Milky Way behind the cabin. We spotted some deer near the living room window and a few blue jays. It's a three minute walk from the cabin to the river. The cabin isn't too far from the Wolf Creek Ski Resort, and it's maybe an hour away from Pagosa Springs. We enjoyed our stay at the cabin.

Great place for large family!

Stayed 7 days with a family of 13 and a dog! Great base camp area...guiet neighborhood, close to the river and easy access in and out of town. We loved the large living and dining area and cooking outside on the deck. Even had a little campfire one evening out back. The house was very clean, fully stocked and plenty of room. Jill was super helpful with all my pre-trip questions. We would definitely stay here again!

Loved everything about it!!

The South Fork location, this cabin, and this host were all great decisions that made our weekend there special. The location is wooded with good road access, short walk to the river, and not far from town -- or any outdoor Colorado activity imaginable in summer or winter time. The cabin was spacious, attractive with newer finishes, and very clean. Furnishings were also pretty and comfortable. In addition to lots of beds and space to put your things, the room sizes allow a large group to spend time together in the living and dining rooms with streaming or games. WiFi was excellent with multi users at one time. Kitchen was well supplied. We loved the large and hot hot tube. It was also nice to bring our dog. The host really went above and beyond to work with our group and help us with a special need and celebration. It was great !! Would highly recommend and will come again.
