Downtown Oak St Farmhouse near Mesa Verde/Durango - Work and Wander! | House in Mancos
1 Bedroom House in Mancos
This well-equipped, historic Farmhouse is located in downtown Mancos—a thriving arts community with a “wild west” vibe. Work comfortably from home, walk to restaurants, grab a cider, beer or a coffee just a minutes walk from the front door. The house sits 10 minutes drive time from the Mesa Verde National Park gate, 15 minutes from the mountain biking mecca, Phil’s World, or 30 minutes from downtown Durango. Nearby Cortez has additional amenities and access to the Canyons of the Ancients National Monument.
**The space**
Oak Street Farmhouse is a historic, 130+ year-old house (built in 1888!) with a ton of character. It has been renovated with modern conveniences, a fun and vibrant aesthetic, and a more open layout.
The house has an open floor plan with a full kitchen, dining, and living room that flow into one another. The downstairs office has a bath/shower directly across the hall. Upstairs is the master bedroom, attached master bath, and tv/lounge area.
Enjoy a meal or a conversation outdoors under the comfortable, covered back patio right off the kitchen that adjoins the large backyard. A full laundry room is available for what may be a much needed, mid-adventure clean-up.
This is not your typical rental setup. We often think about the amenities we would love to have when we're travelling - spices, oils for meals, complete cook sets, a bbq, music and entertainment (including books!) are all things we want to pass on to our guests. We have a HomePod Mini speaker downstairs for great music, use your streaming apps on each TV, and enjoy fast, reliable wifi throughout the house and outside patio thanks to Eero. And don’t worry about keys during your stay, the front door will be pre-programmed with your own unique entry code.
At 7,000 feet in elevation, Mancos enjoys cool evenings in the summer, but we don’t typically get enough snow during the winter to worry about getting stranded.
As of June 2024, the house has a brand new furnace and whole-house forced-air A/C system.
**Guest Access**
The house has 2 off-street parking spaces and there is usually plenty of street parking. With our keypad lock you will not have to worry about keys! We are in downtown Mancos—in the historic district—and most Mancos restaurants, galleries, shops, and coffee spots are a short walk away (5-10 minutes).
**Other details to note**
While recently-renovated, please note that this is an older home: the height of the downstairs ceilings are standard, but the height of some of the ceilings in the upstairs master bedroom are lower. Anyone over 6 feet tall will have to duck in a few places upstairs to avoid hitting their head as they move about.
Note: We are currently only offering stays of 30 days or longer.
***Looking for something more remote or for a shorter time-frame?***
Ask us about our short-term rentals outside of town: the Cliff House or Workshop Loft at Sage Canyon. Both are surrounded by a beautiful red rock canyon just southwest of Cortez, Colorado.
