Sightseeing

A must see! The dunes are incredible! Only a short drive from the house and a major attraction for travelers from all over the world. Enjoy a day of hiking, picnicking, camping, and picture taking at “The Dunes.” Pro-Trip – Kristi Mountain Sports in Alamosa, CO is a great place to rent sand-boards (the fastest way down), bikes, and ski/snowboard equipment.

The falls flow through a narrow canyon, and make for a great photo opportunity, especially in the winter when frozen. Open year round, only a short hike from the parking area.

Hot Springs

Excellent place to soak less than 30 minutes from the house. The main pool is outdoors and is a great place to take the kids for a fun day in the water. There is also a 21+ green house in the back that offers beer/wine and a small but tasty food menu.

Rustic - Local Favorite - only about 35 minutes form the house. Natural rock ponds with warm waters bubbling directly through the gravel below. These all-natural ponds are built in the ground with rock retaining walls. All areas are clothing-optional at all times. There is no artificial light in these areas allowing for great star-gazing. These waters generally range from 93° to 107° (body temperature) depending on the pond and season.
