Tranquil Beauty
This beautiful cabin along the tranquil Rio Grande river is such a relaxing retreat. The outdoor space and views were magnificient. Also, the cabin was very clean and comfortable. We saw a young mule deer, osprey and those adorable little prarie dogs as you turn into the driveway. Our biggest regret is that we did not book a longer stay. We will definitely be back. Melissa does an awesome job and is very easy to work with. Thanks for everything!

Beautiful cabin right by the water
We came to South Fork for a wedding located in Creede; however, we wanted our stay to be a vacation as well. This cabin was perfect for us because it gave us the opportunity to enjoy the river between other activities around the wedding. The cabin was comfortable and we were surprised to see all of the fun outdoor seating options that were available so we can have fun outdoors during our stay! We had a great time!

Great location for area activies
Great cabin with plenty of sleeping options, well-stocked kitchen, grill, deck, and fire ring near the river. Our group of 5 men cooked plenty of meals, used the grill, and chilled on the deck...after 2 long days of fly fishing in the area. Would definitely come back.!

Wonderful cabin by the river
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Plenty of space for the family and was so comfortable. The gas fireplace was a nice add as it was too cool and windy to have a fire down by the river. Kitchen was well equipped as we cooked all our meals vs going out. Recommend South Fork! The owner was very responsive to our questions.

Great Spot for Wolf Creek Access
This is a nice cabin/small house just of Hwy 50 and right on the river. It is well appointed and kept. It's on the east side of town away from the traffic and the pricing is great for what you get. I'll stay here again.

Perfection
This cabin was perfect for our group. There was plenty of room, it was stocked with everything we could of possibly needed, and was close proximity to town. The river that runs behind the cabin is so beautiful and peaceful! I was most impressed by the level of customer service. Melissa and I texted throughout the stay regarding a tripped breaker (they fixed immediately), food recommendations in town, AND she brought a streaming device to allow us to watch a football game at the cabin. Look no further and stay here! You’ll be so glad you did!
