The Adobe House - River Front Property w/ Fire Pit! Pet-Friendly!

3 Bedrooms 1.5 Bathrooms Sleeps 6 1159 Almont

The one of a kind, historic, "Almont Adobe House!" Located riverfront with private fishing and National Forest access, only 15 minutes to both Crested Butte and Gunnison.

This must try experience of the Adobe House is new to the market this year! Updates to the home have allowed for all the modern amenities while preserving the home's Native American authenticity. This special property offers close proximity to endless outdoor activities (skiing, biking, boating, hiking, off road trails, etc.). Among the most popular, world class fishing and whitewater rafting only a few steps off your private deck.

Over a 100 years ago the homesteading family had many options in the Gunnison Valley. It's no wonder they chose this area early on, considered by many locals to be one of the best properties in the county. The Adobe House was originally built in the 1920s as a fishing camp and artist getaway. Tucked away on an acre at the end of a private road surrounded by National Forest, it's a unique natural reserve type setting. This provides your own secluded world of outdoor enjoyment. The bordering National Forest land gives exclusive easy access to over a mile of additional fishable river and countless miles of hiking not easily accessible to the public. As part of the Almont Triangle big game range, you'll see wildlife in the area such as big horn sheep, elk, deer, bald eagles, and much more. You'll quickly find this location and access to these amenities are unique to the property giving you a mountain getaway that will take you back a century in time.

Today, it's a short walk to Three Rivers Resort and The Almont Resort offering two restaurants with bars and great food. They also provide services such as fly fishing supplies, white water rafting, various outfitting and guided tours, as well as a small store providing popular provisions. A free bus in front of the Almont Resort will take you to Gunnison and Crested Butte which are both about ~15 minutes away (downloadable app to track bus location available). Enjoy all the restaurants, shopping, and recreation that both Crested Butte and Gunnison have to offer. Pay less to play there while retreating back to your peaceful and private land and bungalow on the river.

This home has 3 bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. The first two bedrooms (2) having King beds and the third room has a (1) Bunk bed that is a double on the bottom and twin bed on top! The third bedroom is currently waiting for the installation of a sliding barn door, so right now it only has a sheet for privacy from the living room. This homeowner has also recently upgraded his internet service to 60MB.

We loved the seclusion while being close to the resort and not too far from CB and Gunnison.

We had a long weekend get away with our small family of 3 (and dog) prior to our daughter moving off to college. The property was just what we needed. It gave us the isolation that we craved, yet at the same time was a perfect convenient location being right in between Gunnison and CB. We also enjoyed being near Three Rivers Resort and Altmont Resort and the ability to utilize their services. The property itself is very well displayed in the pictures on VRBO. The beds were fantastic and very comfortable. The appliances, cookware, and kitchen accessories were top quality and abundant. We used the Weber gas grill to cook most of our meals and it was terrific. It was absolutely perfect in size for our group. If you were planning on spending a lot of time there, I would say that 4 people would be the perfect amount. It will comfortably sleep 6, but might get a little claustrophobic if all 6 were constantly in the house at the same time. If your group was active and only used it for sleeping purposes, you would be fine. Peak Property Management was great to work with......Michelle, McKenzie, and Ren all helped us at one point or another and all were courteous, accommodating, and truly cared about their renters. We were able to check in a little early, because the schedule worked out to do so, and they made it happen for us. The setting of this little adobe house was magnificent.....It was placed directly between the high bluffs and literally 40 steps from the river. We saw the group of big horn sheep 2 out of the 4 days that we were there--what amazing climbers. Our dog enjoyed the nice big yard of native Colorado grasses and plants. We spent a great deal of time soaking in the beauty on the back deck. The view never got old. Overall, we had a wonderful experience enjoying the perfect combination of outdoors, great shops and restaurants in CB, local golf and fishing, as well as the cabin itself. If you are looking for a great location in the Gunnison/CB area, yet want a secluded feel, this is a great place for your small group of all ages.

We loved the charm of this comfortable little home. Interested in coming back and trying it again in the summer. It was warm and cozy and we so enjoyed the bighorn sheep every day. Our family had rented a home in Crested Butte, and we had record snowfall during our visit so it was a bit far to travel back-and-forth on a daily basis when there was so much snow. If weather had been better and roads clear it wouldn’t have felt so far. The short little road into the property was a little scary in the dark with a lot of snow but it added to the adventure. We also really appreciated it being dog friendly. This is the perfect spot for someone who’s looking for charming coziness. Rental agency was responsive and helpful with any questions. This property is a unique little gem!

We had such a great time at this little adobe. It was so clean and comfortable. We worked from there for a few days and enjoyed hiking nearby. The deck was so relaxing to sit on with our wine and listen to the river. Would definitely stay here again.

The property was fabulous! We had an excellent time. Being able to raft the lower Taylor and take out in the back yard, then just jump on the raft the next morning to do part of the Gunnison was so much fun. The privacy, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen and cleanliness were our Pros when deciding if we were going to book again next year, which we have already done. We utilized the fire pit almost every night and really enjoyed the area. There is only one thing I would recommend. All four of us who stayed their, at one point or another, almost tripped on the step going down to the patio from the 3 foot landing outside the door. I think you don't really see it especially if you are looking at the great scenery!! A one inch white painted stripe on the upper step I think would help this situation!
