Sundance Bear Lodge

Beautifully furnished B&B located between Cortez (Mesa Verde National Park) and Durango (narrow guage railroad to Silverton). Very comfortable, great breakfasts, and hosts Sue and Bob could not have been nicer people to be with.

Our stay with Bob and Sue Scott of Sundance Bear Lodge was one of the best experiences we have had in our years of traveling the U.S. It was just a bonus that it was our first family stay in a B&B (we have a just-turned-teen son). The great location in the four-corners area, the funky little town of Mancos, the wonderful breakfasts and conversation, and the quiet solitude of the property – everything was just about perfect. Get away from it all, or stay connected to the world (as I had to do given my research job and the Gulf oil spill effects). Visit the National Parks and Monuments within an easy days road venture, or explore the canyons on the 80+acre Sundance property. While we stayed in the main lodge for four nights, they also have a separate cabin and a guest house if that is more to your liking. In short, everything mentioned in the previous reviews was spot on. Given the opportunity, we will certainly be returning for another visit.

A friend and i stayed in the SDB 2 bedroom cabin and loved it! Bob and Sue are wonderful, we lacked nothing. The cabin was comfortable, affordable, quiet, and had great views of the Mesa. Highly recommended and would go again in a minute!

The Sundance Bear Lodge is not just a place to stay, but a destination in its self. Go for the ambiance of the lodge, the surroundings, the hospitality of your hosts, Bob and Sue, and the gourmet breakfasts. Whether you go out exploring or stay in, a memorable experience awaits you.

Kind and helpful hosts, nice room, hearty home-made breakfasts, breathtaking view on Mesa Verde, convenient location not far from the four corners, what else to ask ? Dominique and Marc BONNET

A relaxed, family atmosphere (two friendly pooches complimenting two most hospitable hosts); fine victuals; a beautiful setting; and the most thorough listing of useful guidance and suggestions encountered in any B&B on our 8,834.6 mile journey around the USA. We recommend Sundance Bear Lodge without hesitation. Sally and Ted Briggs, Norfolk, CT

Hi Sue & Bob, This is Heather writing as we have just got back to the UK. Yes we are the ones who pitched up when we thought we were staying up the road! I just wanted to write and thank you for making us feel so welcome in your wonderful home. The log cabin was stunning. Other people are right - it is hard to get a real sense of just how stunning this location is from photos. We loved everything about it - the furnishings, the comfort, the beautiful views from the (three) decks, the rustling of the aspen trees and the closeness to nature. We slept the best here of anywhere on our vacation and loved the walks on the surrounding land. We have all fallen in love with SW Colorado! Thank you for being such gracious hosts and for being so generous with your time and your home. We hope to be back soon With very best wishes Heather, Daniel & Alex Cardwell North Yorkshire, UK

Bob and Sue made our most recent vacation feel like a home away from home. Their hospitality is second to none. I give my highest recommendation to the Sundance Bear Lodge. I will visit it again.
