Magic in Lake San Cristóbal

Location, Location, Location! Many people feel this property is similar to being on a houseboat. The spacious deck is directly over the water of Lake San Cristobal. You can hear the lapping of waves as you read or eat on the lovely front deck. The majestic mountains surrounding the lake are green in summer, aspen covered in fall, and snow covered in winter.

The area is well know for its five fourteen thousand foot mountain peaks. Hiking on the many surrounding trails will follow streams, waterfalls, and valleys filled with wildflowers. There is also the wonderful Alpine Loop that takes jeeps and four-wheelers across the continental divide to the high country land of mountain Shepherds and tundra. Silverton and ghost towns such as Animas Forks are also along this route.

Of course fishermen think this is paradise. The lake and all the surrounding streams provide wonderful fishing. In September Lake City has a Wine and Music Festival. In winter there is abundant snowshoeing, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and ice climbing. The beauty and serenity of the forests at this time offer experiences to be remembered. This is the time of year that captures the quiet of the season. Relaxing with a book by the fire is also a welcome treat. This home provides a respite from the usual business of the world.

This home was in the most incredible spot. What a view ! Nicely furnished and very comfortable. The only negative would be the master shower. Needs some updating and love. Otherwise it was perfect.

Great views and location
The location is great for hiking and off-roading, just off the start of the Alpine Loop. The views off the deck are awesome. We enjoyed sitting out there in the late afternoons after a day hiking. Owner proactively let us know of a couple of minor issues and was quick to respond when needed. Easy to find and short drive into town. Bed in main bedroom is very soft. Too soft for us but this is personal preference. Place is starting to show age with decor and with several appliances not working or not working well. Was not dirty but wasn’t particularly clean either.

Wonderful place to enjoy the Lake City area
This is the 2nd time I have stayed here and we think it is great, right on the lake, easy access to town. We spent all of both days we were there fishing on the lake spending time with the granddaughters. I will stay there anytime I come to Lake City.

Lovely and quiet place to stay
The cabin was very well stocked with everything that we needed. The owner is right next door and very happy to answer questions and tell you the best places to go. We had been to Lake City twice before and love it. There are so many trails to explore and wildlife to see.

Beautiful location
I surprised my wife by bringing her here for our 25th anniversary and she absolutely loved it and we’re already trying to plan our trip back. My only regret is not staying longer. I recommend at least a week. We loved that the deck is right on the water and the house has everything you need to feel at home just bring your clothes and food!

We have stayed at this property once before and loved it so much that we couldn't wait to come back. We love to kayak and it is so convenient to have the lake right there out the back door. The view and scenery are absolutely gorgeous and we will never tire of staying in this beautiful, comfortable condo!

This property is everything described in listing and more. Everything was clean and very well stocked. We lacked for nothing. My favorite place was the deck overlooking the beautiful lake nestled between the mountains. Kathryn was a great hostess. We would certainly return.

Relaxing place
Pro: Beautiful setting on the lake Can fish from the deck Good towels in bathroom A tray with condiments in the kitchen and coffee filters and laundry detergent provided Chairs in the master bedroom very comfortable Hair dryers provided along with shampoo, conditioner and soap. Cons: Dim lighting over dining table (it was hard to play cards) Light out in 2nd bedroom so really dark in there. Coffee pot needs cleaning. Very slow. Had to keep the balcony door in the master bedroom locked so it was always a little too warm upstairs when first going to bed. (It does cool off with the open windows but not till late in the night) The couple staying in the extra bedroom thought it was warm also. But they put a fan in the window and another one facing the bed and it got cool as the night wore on. All in all I would recommend staying here. (The cons were not dealbreakers-just minor things.)

Main vacay
Staying right on Lake San Cristobal is truly a treasure. This townhome makes it extra special. In this unit you can fish right from the Trex type dock. The double decks are out-fitted with nice furniture, a grill and beautiful flowers. Inside is well maintained with a ‘cabin’ feel decor. The kitchen is stocked with appropriate pans/utensils/kitchenware. We appreciated the Pendleton blankets to wrap around us as we sat on the deck in the cool(cold) mornings. Bed linens and bath towels were nice. The only con was the lighting in the living/dining—it is dark in the evening and more light is needed. This would not stop me from staying there again, though. We thoroughly loved this unit (we’ve stayed in others) and this one is our favorite because the access to fishing or canoeing right off the dock is set up so nice! Magical!
