When I want to get away, I got to Willowtail Springs. I have had the pleasure of staying in each of the cabins and every bed I have slept in has offered the best rest I have ever had! I personally like to write, draw and take pictures when I am there. I know there are many other activities available but I prefer the quiet the space offers. My husband and I planned our wedding during a stay there and came back, rented all of the cabins and brought our family. I love Willowtail Springs all year, especially when it snows. The views are gorgeous! Peggy and Lee stock the cabins with local eggs, produce, fresh bread and the most amazing cherry berry jam. Don't tell Peggy that I once ate an entire jarful with a spoon! It's a must stay if you are even thinking about staying near Mancos for a few nights or just want to get away!

Willowtail is a beautiful, interesting, inspiring place. The landscaping (whether by Ma Nature or by Peggy and Lee), is restfully beautiful. This place is whatever you need it to be -- romantic, restorative, exciting, educational, most of all lovely to inhabit for a while. Peggy and Lee have an obvious and contagious respect for Willowtail Springs; they are gracious, welcoming, non-intrusive stewards of this remarkable hideaway. We cannot wait to return.

We booked the lakehouse for 3 nights and wish it had been 5! It was beautiful, cozy and relaxing. My only regret is that I planned too many activities off the property and didn't leave enough time to just enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Thank you Peggy and Lee!

The other reviews here were the reason we chose this place and they were absolutely CORRECT! The lodgings are wonderful- cozy, homey and yet a touch of sophistication due to the artistic style of Peggy, our hostess. We stayed in the Lake house and the Bungalow- 7 of us. The gardens were lovely and so creatively adorned with the most unusual items ! Grounds- all 60 acres are perfect for wandering, birding, or just sitting looking at the coots and grebes- with their ducklings- on the pond. The view was great to bewgin with but when a rainbow was seen coming from the mountain tops one evening - it was hard to top! Peggy and Lee were available and helpful, but never intrusive. We all felt so at home. We were close to some hiking, and took a day trip to Mesa Verde, which can be seen from the property. We also took a day trip north to Ouray- a fantastic village!
