Cons: my daughters and I arrived late in the evening after driving the hour away from civilization to discover there was NO toilet paper. Every VRBO I’ve ever stayed at has provided at least half a roll. We were forced to use coffee filters until visiting telluride the following day. A mouse lives under the couch in the kitchenette/bathroom cabin. Although understandable, wilderness and all, it made for an unpleasant, persistent smell. All the screens in the schoolhouse (sleeping cabin) are torn. I wised to allow some fresh mountain air into the school house, but again, wilderness (bugs); my girls requested vehemently I not do this. The listing says 4 wheel drive is not required. After driving for a bit in 2WD I switched to 4WD. Particularly for the drive to Telluride, which is switchback after switchback on a gravel dirt road with mountain on one side and shear death on the other; I was VERY happy to have 4WD! No wifi: in the theory, nice when you want to get away, but in practice, a person who doesn’t naturally have a good sense of direction needs GPS. The beds: the two twins in the school house were fairly comfortable; everything else is just springs. Even the fold out couch in the other cabin, where the mouse lives, is only springs surrounded by some fabric.
Pros: it is serene and peaceful in a remote, unique location. THE NIGHT SKY!! We saw deer grazing in the yard. It was a great place to connect with my children without electronics. The kitchen is nicely stocked.
