"The Lodge" At Pagosa's Dutton Canyon/Hot Tub/Gas FP Stove/Pool Table/Pets

“The Lodge” at Pagosa Springs I was hesitant about posting my review due to how friendly and nice the host is to his guests. However, I went back to VRBO and checked the listing and as he had stated to us, the price we got was low for what it normally is listed to rent. Therefore, I feel that the prospective guests should be aware of a few things. #1 there are many things that have been listed that are not quite accurate. #2 it states air conditioning throughout, and it does have vents, but the a/c does not cool the upstairs at all or the home on hot days. It is clear that there have been complaints due to a window unit being added in the living area downstairs. However, it is ineffective due to being placed in the window directly across from the other units control panel. This causes the cold air to be blown directly into the control panel, which causes the control panel to register an inaccurate temperature for the home. If you do not use the window unit, the house temperature was around 90 degrees in the afternoon. If you do use it, then it shuts off the main unit. It is a double edged sword. This issue causes the upstairs bedrooms to be uninhabitable due to the 90+ degree temperature in the afternoons and evenings #3 the deck has been neglected and boards are loose to the point of being unattached and coming up at you, if you step on either end of the board. #4 hot tub runs only one time and shuts off and will not run again for a while. I don’t have enough room for the rest, these are the main ones

Great stay at this home This home greatly accommodated my family vacation to Pagosa. Plenty of space and the kitchen was stocked with everything you need to cook. There were plenty of extra towels and bedding for everyone. Also, the hot tub was a nice feature for everyone to relax at the end of the day.

Extended family getaway Very nice , large home accommodated our group of 10 adults and 1 child. House was well stocked with plenty of linens and towels. Kitchen had everything we needed as well. We loved seeing the deer on the property.

Big Group of Friends This property is great! If I do another trip to Pagosa Springs I would definitely stay here again it was great to have a hot tub and a pool table, especially with a big group!
