"So far I enjoyed my stay, but the only thing I didn’t like much was the parking lot. I meant there’s a few parking spots for compact/ midsize cars but for big trucks with trailers there’s none. ( Ouray is very touristy for people with utv’s, should it be expected big cars with pulling trailers) We had to park somewhere else because not enough space."
