We absolutely love this property. This was our second time staying here. The home is beautiful inside and out.
The comfort of the cabin was very good for my group of people. But the WiFi did not work and we found telerañas inside the house. The stove oven did not work well and the refrigerator did not close the doors well.
The house was a beautiful log cabin,easy access and very clean. We had a small problem with a door within 30 minutes we had the maintenance lady get it fixed. Our stay at this cabin was great. We will come again.
We loved the location and the home was beautiful it fit our group of 14 comfortably with even room to spare. We loved the property but had a couple complications switches and outlets socked you and some outlets were tripped. The oven did not close properly and it caused it to not work well. Nonetheless it was a nice home and we would definitely stay again.
Based on some of the older reviews, I was iffy on booking South Fork Sanctuary. However, it was stated that it was under new management and the reviews have been consistently higher so I decided to give it a try. South Fork Sanctuary completely bypassed my expectations, from the fully stocked kitchen, plenty of space, beautiful outdoor area, and comfortable beds. Having access to a private island really made our trip. We enjoyed sitting by the fire pit and looking at the stars next to the river each night. If you stay when the river is flowing, you can hear it through open windows which makes for a great nights sleep. I would highly recommend staying here! It is great for both adults and kids, plus it is far enough away from Pagosa Springs to avoid the more expensive lodging but close enough to enjoy the drive through the mountains which is worth it in itself. You can really tell that the new management cares and puts in the effort to make South Fork Sanctuary a top tier stay.
Beautiful home in an amazing spot in South Fork. Common area is beautiful and has a ton of room for our large group. There were a couple issues with regards to the oven and some doors not closing well/handles getting stuck, but did not impact the stay in a great deal. Also, with only 3 real bedrooms, sleeping was a little tight for our large group (3 couples in a room) but there was indeed bed space for everyone. Would definitely stay here again.
