We are well seasoned VRBO home renters, who know what makes a good property. This home has a very nice design, but needed TLC to make it truly great. A few of the issues:* The oven was broken, and replaced by a very small (dirty) convection unit on the counter. Not acceptable for the food that we always prepare and bring while on vacation.* Several pieces of family room furniture were "weathered" and need to be replaced.* The owners live in an attached structure, so we never felt totally alone. They did keep to themselves, but it felt weird.* There was a constant smell of marijuana - from the plants growing just outside, and from use in the adjoining structure. We kept certain windows open to provide some fresh air.* There were no curtains in several areas where they should have been - in particular the upstairs bathroom.That said - the home was convenient to Mesa Verde and Canyon of the Ancients parks - and Four Corners if that is on your TO DO list. It is very close to Dolores for supplies, but still feels remote. The driveway could be a challenge in winter weather, but was fine for our minivan during this visit. AND – after complaining a bit about the broken oven, the owner did give us an appropriate refund on the rental price.

Hi Charles, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they would like to share the following:
- We sincerely apologize that the oven was out of order during your stay. This has since been fixed.
- We have also replaced all of the furniture and will consider your comments regarding curtains in some of the private windows.
- The listing does state that the owners live on site, but we are sorry if this caught you off guard. We encourage guests to thoroughly review the listing before booking, to ensure they find the perfect vacation home for their needs.
- We do not have marijuana on property but are sorry to hear of any odors that affected your stay.
Thanks for taking the time to leave your review.
Had a great time in a wonderful home. I would have liked blinds in the master bathroom as the current owners have a window that looks right up into shower area. Would definitely recommend
