This place is the best!! There was more than enough room for us all and so many nice touches too! ... Great beds, huge fridge, all the appliances we needed and great water pressure with plenty of parking space! The wraparound porch was a treat and the view was fantastic. We had missed that there was no AC, but as long as we kept windows open at the right times of day it never got too warm. Would definitely recommend!!

We weren’t there but to sleep really and it did the job. Plenty of space for 5 of us. Big living room and kitchen. Mid room with washer and dryer is very useful. If you have a trailer and are a motorcycle or side by side crew, this property has the room to accommodate.

It was great for our gathering and had lots of room for our big group. There are 3 king beds and 2 queen beds and they were all super comfy: it was only a 5 minute walk to Orvis hot springs too!

Very Short Stay

We were hoping to spend longer than 4 hours here. After traveling from Albuquerque, we were ready to enjoy the quietness and cool air. Unfortunately, my husband’s oxygen levels were really low. After a visit to the EMS 2 miles away, we were convinced by the deputy head EM Technician we should leave immediately and go to Montrose, CO 2400 ft lower in elevation. I wish we could have spent the night here.

Loved our stay at the Orvis Outpost! It was a perfect size for our group. And a perfect staging point for our backpacking trip out of Ouray. It is great and right across the street from the Orvis hot springs!

Good for 6 people, not 8

Overall was nice, however I missed that the "sleeps 8" means that 3 people have to sleep in each king size bed. I thought the couch was a pullout, and the teenagers could have slept on that. It is awkward having 2 adults and a 16 or 17 year old share a king size bed (twice since we had 8 in our party and there was only one queen and two king beds). A sign on the basement door indicating "do not enter" would have ben appreciated instead of a tiny sign on the desk downstairs in the basement saying so. We were looking for more bedrooms.
