Jeff and Renee's place was wonderful. Everything from the amenities, space, accommodations, views from his deck, and proximity to Mesa Verde Park were great. Jeff was super helpful and always reachable by phone, although we did see him from time to time on his property, which was comforting. We highly recommend his vacation property when you are planning a trip to the park and the surrounding areas.

My stay was amazing, very comfortable and I found everything I needed and more at the house. The property and space are immaculate and owners are wonderful. They made sure I knew I could contact them with any questions or needs. There’s easy access to downtown Mancos, Cortez and Durango for adventures though you don’t need to leave the house to enjoy a breathtaking view! You cannot go wrong with a stay here!

Peaceful. Home away from home.

Jeff and Renee are great to work with. We did not get to visit much because we kept ourselves busy with parents sight-seeing and enjoying the beauty of this part of the state. The vrbo was clean, spacious, and had an incredible view from back patio. Would definitely recommend staying here if you are in the Mesa Verde National Park area.

Beautiful location

Stayed for a week and had a wonderful time. Very detailed directions were emailed and we found the house easily. Very friendly owner lives next door and were great. Very close to Mesa Verde and the towns of Cortez and Muncos as well as Four Corners. Durango isn't too far and i highly recommend the train ride to Silverton. I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay again

Very comfortable stay

We went out to mountain bike and visit Mesa Verde NP. The property was comfortable and quiet. The beds were very comfortable. Love the dual shower heads as well. The views were amazing from the back porch. Working the tv and receiver took some time to figure out but got it going, comfortable sectional as well. Overall a very nice stay and close to nearby attractions and towns.

Fabulous location to Mesa Verde

My sister and I stayed at the Bird's Nest in late Sept. 2024. It was fabulous. Very quiet and comfortable. We loved the deck for watching the sunrise/sunset with a glass of wine. Very quiet. The kitchen was so well stocked. The location couldn't have been better for visiting Mesa Verde. Jeff and his wife were wonderful hosts - answered questions quickly and were available for restaurant recommendations :)

Nice location with good views.

Very close to Mesa Verde. We came to ride mountain bikes @ Phil's World. The property is very nice. It is above a garage that is connected to the main house. Separate entrance from the main house. The AC was appreciated. It was smokey from CA wildfires while we were here. So, the views were subdued. Well appointed kitchen and living room. DISH Network. Wifi was spotty; might need a booster. One night I had to do some work with my laptop tethered to my phone. The little deck out back was great. Next time I think I will bring food and cook at the apartment; as it is a drive for a restaurant. Big Safeway and City Market in Cortez. Thank you, we will be back!
