/ nightFinding The Turquoise Door was your best move. Long views and sunset and so many stars await your arrival. Top reasons why guests love staying here are the following: Cozy, Comfy, Clean and Cute Incredible 360 Views by Day World Class Night Sky Fully Stocked Kitchen and Bathroom Fire Pit with ready Wood Access to Black Canyon and Grand Mesa Easy to find and Seamless Check-In Relax in a Hammock Peaceful, Private, Quiet, Thoughtful Incredible overlook at "The Draw" Fast WiFi ROAD TRIP!!! Keep your eyes open wide on the way here. Every angle of approach lays out iconic American landscapes. From your front door, look at the horizon line featuring the jagged peaks of the San Juan and West Elk ranges. Turn around and watch the sunset go down purple and pink and brilliant beyond the Grand Mesa. On clear dark nights, the Milky Way comes out to play. When you can see it, and you're here, and it's quiet, and you've got your person or your dog or its just you............ Wow, that's nice. To enhance the stargazing, a fire-pit is ready for you with all the wood, kindling and matches you'll need. Now choose your own adventure. What will you have? S'mores? Smooches? A stiff drink? Maybe lose yourself changing eye levels from shining stars to smoldering embers. A ready- hung hammock is also perfect if you're not feeling fiery. To the inside! Your bed is supremely comfortable and requires no steps nor ladders. Guests appreciate having their bed and frame at ground level. In the loft above, there is also a lovely double bed with skylights above. This is great to view the night sky, or if your group requires more than one bed. The kitchen and bathroom are fully stocked and easy to use. Completely on-grid utilities means on-demand hot water to shower away whatever you've been into all day. The kitchen is small but mighty. A two burner hot plate, microwave and capable toaster oven make most cooking possible. Coffee and tea station are ready and on-point. Outdoor activities are on most guests' agenda. You're in a good spot. The property is equidistant to both entrances of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. The Grand Mesa sounds like something you've heard of, but aren't quite sure. It's spectacular in all seasons for all kinds of outdoor activities, especially hiking. The largest flat-top mountain IN THE WORLD! Some quick hitters: - Pets are welcome for a fee. Please add them to your guest count to pay that fee. Please don't bring dogs who are uncontrollable for barking, shedding, bathroom issues or tearing stuff up. - Marijuana tourism is welcomed and now recreationally available in the town of Cedaredge (15 mins). Smoking is allowed on site, but NOT inside. - WiFi is fast and reliable for remote work or streaming. - Small towns of Delta, Hotchkiss, Paonia, Cedaredge provide nearby groceries, gas, shopping and restaurants. I have plenty of recommendations in each category. - Bigger or more touristic towns like Ouray, Telluride, Moab, Grand Junction and Montrose are all day trips from here. - Perfect for a stop mid road-trip. Perfect for a birthday or anniversary. Gorgeous getaway from the Front Range. - Easy access to two different Colorado wine regions. -Managed by just me and my cleaning team.

I also keep an eye on my messages to give you the best possible communication. -On this property I expect my guests to have basic respect for their fellow humans. I proudly welcome all LGBTQ folk. I also proudly welcome people of any color, race, religion, ethnicity, culture, political leaning---whatever. If you're a good person and your dollars are green, I want your business! Guests will have complete and private access to their Tiny House. I use keypad locks so you will let yourself in upon arrival without waiting for a host or asking permission. On the same property are three other rentals. They're about a baseball throw away. No tiny house can look into the other tiny houses for privacy. Please be aware that other guests may be staying in those units during your stay. It is easy for guests to choose to interact with each other, or not. There is always some new project happening at this property. You may see one of my cleaning team members turning over another unit. You may also see Charley (me!) if I happen to be working on a project at the property. Please say 'hi'! We don't bite, but are likely to leave you on your own while you're here unless you give us a sign. Welcome to Delta County! This gem of an extended neighborhood is still a bit of a tourist secret. There is so much to offer, and all so close! Exceptional food and drink options abound. We're located in the heart of Colorado farm country. There are organic farms and orchards and wineries in every direction. The many geographies and geologies present fabulously diverse terroir. Plenty of restaurants and full service grocery stores in the area too. The Great Outdoors are calling, and you must answer! This area is a dream for the outdoorsman. The Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park is in our backyard. The largest flat-top mountain in the world, The Grand Mesa makes the silhouette for your sunsets. We would love to give you some recommendations to get the most out of your time in the area. The property is easy to find and parking is never a problem. We love our neighbors and do our best to support the local economy. You'll be welcome to walk through that Turquoise Door. It does require your own wheels to arrive and depart here.

It is not okay to have them sleep over. Please keep me in the loop via airbnb messages if unaccounted people are coming over. - Marijuana tourism is welcome. But no smoking of any kind on the inside, pretty please. - I'm always trying to figure out what brings people to my place.

January 2025 5.00This was the perfect stop while on our little roadtrip with our pup! It truly was the highlight of the trip and we wish we could’ve stayed longer. It was cozy and felt so homey….We will definitely be back for more starry nights and peaceful mornings!

Matthew B.
December 2024 5.00Cute little tiny home. Great for a couple. The location looks like it would be really nice when the weather is good.
Alexzander N.
December 2024 5.00A quality and cozy stay to say the least. Fire pit is nice plus lots of space. Well worth every penny. The stars are beautiful and you feel comfortable right away. Also not to far from any town nearby for supplies
Gabriel B.
November 2024 5.00Neat, Awesome Place. Definitely recommend it if you just need a place to stay for a night or so and are passing through.
Heather S.
November 2024 5.00Great location, quick access to everything. Spot was perfect for what we were looking for - getting to the western side of CO and enjoying a few days out of Denver. Charley was very communicative and helpful, we really didn’t have many questions because they were already answered. Would definitely come back and would recommend this spot to friends.
Robert G.
October 2024 5.00I stayed at the Turquoise Door for approximately 11 nights and was very satisfied with it!
Brittney P.
October 2024 4.00There were a few issues upon arrival, at no fault of the owner. They were addressed and solved promptly. We enjoyed making s’mores by the fire pit and even got to see the northern lights for a short period. Overall it’s a great spot!
Michelle E.
October 2024 5.00beautiful place! the sunrises were SPECTACULAR! red and orange rising over the mountain every morning. great little spot and we grilled over fire every night. Amazon delivers here. grocery store is close. my third stay here!

September 2024 5.00Great location. Felt right at home and had everything you need for an enjoyable stay.
Michael P.
September 2024 5.00I'm sorry I missed the stars, it was raining. Very cozy tiny home. Perfect if you're looking for a lot of space away from it all. Great place if you haven't explored that part of the state.
Patou G.
September 2024 5.00Charley was a great host and the place was peaceful and just what we needed!
Jacob S.
September 2024 5.00My wife and I stayed here for a trip to visit Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. It was the perfect distance from the park and also was a place we wish we could’ve stayed at for much longer than we did. It’s small, cozy and you feel like you have your own oasis. We look forward to our return one day!
Alice D.
September 2024 5.00Very comfy bed. Our host was very responsive. We had a slight issue, and Charley responded right away and made sure that it was immediately resolved and that we were happy. We enjoyed sitting outside at night and seeing the Milky Way since it was such a dark sky area. Good place to stay while visiting the Black Canyon.
Crystal C.
September 2024 5.00WOW. We are already planning a 3 day trip out there because one night just wasn’t enough to really enjoy it thoroughly. It was cozy and fun- the perfect mix.
Charles C.
August 2024 5.00beautiful tiny home with a amazing night sky
Shelly M.

August 2024 5.00This booking was amazing, and i’m for sure coming back to it. The place had it all from views to Q tips; Charley was a great host with much to offer at any given time. The tiny home sat perfectly under the stars with many outdoor activities to do, for sure would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful and quiet place to stay.
Christopher C.
August 2024 4.00Very unique area, Charlie had a nice book with recommendations available. Was nice being able to have your own camp fire. Nice star watching at night.
Caci M.
August 2024 5.00This was a lovely stay for a few days! The property is nice to relax on, and there are an abundance of wineries, orchards, restaurants and trails nearby to check out.
Nathan U.
August 2024 5.00If you are looking for a quiet, private and quaint spot, this is it. As described.
Susie B.
August 2024 5.00I had asked for recommendations on local activities and Charley responded, suggested visiting Grand Mesa and I am so glad I did- beautiful mountain! The tiny place was as described. Charley was around caring for the property grounds and is very friendly. After a hot day, the house was nice and cool inside because Charley had turned on the window cooler and fans. It was clean and had just about every amenity one would need in a cozy little place. I enjoyed the rural setting, the smell of baling hay across the street, the quiet nights, and the hammock! The location turned out to be a good midpoint between North and South rims of Black Canyon on the Gunnison, so I could visit both.
Matt H.
August 2024 5.00Great spot to stay with amazing views. Location is quiet and peaceful. Bed was amazing. This is a place I will definitely be visiting again.
Carson S.
July 2024 5.00This is an awesome “tiny home”, once inside it didn’t feel like a tiny home. Very private and far enough where you don’t hear your neighbors, also was in a perfect location and perfect atmosphere just sitting outside and enjoying the views!
Jenn H.
July 2024 5.00Charley is a great host and the Tiny houses are amazing. The views were incredible and getting into either town nearby was no problem at all. Will definitely be back to the triple view tiny homes!
Ralf S.
July 2024 5.00Comfortable inside and a lot of space with a nice fireplace outside. We had a pleasant stay and a good starting point to explore the region: Hiking in the Grand Mesa Mountains, boot trip on the Gunnison River, checking out neolithic petroglyphs, wine and cider tastings. We finished each day with a BBQ, sitting around the fire place.
Rachel W.
July 2024 5.00i wish i could rate this tiny house 10 stars. with expectations to be here really only to sleep and eat, we ended up staying almost two full days here without leaving once. everything about the tiny house and the location was perfect. the house was so comfortable, has amazing views, and a lovely atmosphere overall. after being here, i would absolutely stay here every single time i came through this way!!
Jacob H.
July 2024 5.00Place was just as advertised quiet, clean, and had everything you need.
Andrew B.
July 2024 5.00Fit the bill for what I was looking for, everything as described, extremely cozy
Monique R.
June 2024 5.00The Turquoise Door was the perfect cozy home to relax in after a day of exploring gunnison gorge, ouray and my favorite Grand Mesa National Park. The house has spectacular views and the best little fire pit to hang out at. I highly recommend and would definitely come back.
Sam S.
June 2024 5.00luckily there's an ac.
Cindy C.
June 2024 5.00We were so impressed with the layout of this “tiny home village”. Charley thought of everything to make it so comfortable and inviting. Absolutely loved it there!
Michael D.
June 2024 5.00.
Aj H.
June 2024 5.00Very nice little cabins!
Prince K.
June 2024 4.00Over all had a great stay. Only thing to be mindful about is that the place can feel small for 3adults especially when using the bathroom. It’s perfect for a couple traveling with their kid. Location was very convenient to access the Black canyon park. There is a town close by about 10-15mins away as well.
Hunter P.
June 2024 5.00Charley's tiny house is the perfect base camp for trips to Gunnison National Park and the rest of the western slope. It's really well stocked, easily accessible, and a comfortable place to relax after a day outside. The fire place is well stocked, and well equipped for a night of smores!
Michelle G.
June 2024 5.00Charley's place is amazing! Quiet and peaceful, super clean and comfortable. It was the perfect place to come home to each evening after exploring the Grand Valley. Charley has all the need-to-know instructions in a binder. He is available via text, and checks in to see if you have any questions, while respecting your privacy. He is one of the best hosts we have ever had. Be sure to take a morning or evening walk down to the draw and watch the river go by - beautiful!
Mark M.
June 2024 5.00Great, beautiful place! Secluded but close enough for nice restaurants and places to shop! Charley was a great host, very communicative and helpful
Jarred M.
June 2024 5.00This was the first Air B&B my wife and I have been too and it has set the bar for us. Definitely going to stay here again in the future
Noah S.
June 2024 5.00Charley’s place was fantastic! We really enjoyed our stay and how comfortable and accommodating everything was!

May 2024 5.00Excellent séjour :) Belle luminosité, très très calme comme endroit Toutes les commodités étaient là
Yaneth S.
May 2024 5.00My family and I really enjoyed our time in this tiny home. It was the perfect size for the four of us and had everything we needed. I loved being able to watch the sunset and sunrise as soon as I walked out the door. My husband really appreciated that firewood was provided for a bonfire. On top of that, Charley was an amazing host.Couldn’t have asked for a better stay! We loved it so much that we decided to stay an extra night. Can’t wait to be back for a longer amount of time.
Andrew P.
May 2024 5.00can't recommend this place enough! it has beautiful views of the mountains, surprisingly spacious for a tiny home, very clean and beautifully designed, and super cozy. the fire pit and hammocks were awesome and they had great recs for the area. would absolutely stay here again!
Maria R.
May 2024 5.00My boyfriend and I were out in Colorado for a concert at red rock but decided to explore for a few days beforehand. We were out in Ouray and I wanted to get a place kind of close to there. I made a last minute reservation and was welcomed. All the information I needed was provided in message before I arrived. The place was definitely quiet. I really wanted to take advantage of the fire outside but it was raining on and off. Although I didn’t use the kitchen area, I noticed it was STOCKED with all the goods. Seasonings are definitely readily available. I did get to watch a few episodes of Lost on Hulu; there is a smart TV. If I’m ever back in the area I’d want to stay again.
Brandon L.
May 2024 5.00I absolutely loved this place. Felt very secluded but very peaceful and beautiful! Highly recommend and would definitely come back :)
Heather W.
April 2024 5.00My mom and I stayed here for a couple nights. It was just what we needed. She kept saying how she felt like we were glamping. The fire pit was such a plus!
Ernesto R.
April 2024 5.00I loved how secluded it was, a very peaceful experience. we felt so comfortable and we have everything we needed plus more!

Karen V.
March 2024 5.00Located on a plateau above the Gunnison River the views are stunning! My tiny home was clean and comfortable with so many fun little details. Outside was a fire pit and hammocks and table. Definitely walk down to The Draw for sunset!
Dipti D.
March 2024 5.00Our cabin was really beautiful, even better than the pictures. it's a small cabin, but very self sufficient. You have everything you need. We absolutely loved the location. It was so peaceful to just sit on the hammock, by the fire pit, or just look at the tractor working in the fields, a man training a horse across the road with snow capped mountains on the back. Uff so beautiful and blissful! We would love to come back! Thanks Charley for a wonderful stay!
Filip T.
February 2024 5.00Very cute spot, beautiful area to explore.
Shawna A.
January 2024 5.00We absolutely loved Charley’s place! We plan to return with friends someday!

Lauri T.
January 2024 5.00If you want a place take your child, ( meaning a dog), this will be your home for your stay. Very peaceful and very clean and they have everything that you could possibly need or want for your stay. I'm going back there.
Winter B.
January 2024 5.00Cute place. Definitely recommend
Jonathan P.
December 2023 5.00Cozy, well appointed, and utterly serene. This tiny home managed to offer a great kitchen, comfy beds, a neat, tucked away loft our teenager loved, and neat, rustic furnishings. Guides to local attractions were available, and a short, scenic walk to the Gunnison River was at our doorstep.
Jamie P.
December 2023 5.00Great place. Will definitely be back
Filip K.
December 2023 5.00Charley is a great host; was very responsive and flexible. Very cute time home, perfect for a place to crash for a night or two. Quiet & peaceful little community.
Dalton V.
November 2023 5.00This was an adorable, cozy tiny home! We only stayed two nights, but it was a delightful stay. It was very clean and tidy, but not to the point of feeling sterile or lacking personality. The kitchen had a bunch of tools to cook with, and plenty of amenities available throughout. The loft with the skylights was perfect for stargazing. We enjoyed our stay in this little hidden gem of a cabin!
Jenni W.
October 2023 5.00Great stay, great little touches everywhere. Loved reading all the little post-it notes from other guests. It gave us so much joy! Would stay here again. Thanks Charley!
Shawna G.
October 2023 4.00cute and private. Didn't spend much time there, just there to sleep 2 nights as we were out and about all day long. upon arrival, which ended up being late/after dark the first night, the unit had a strong odor of Marijuana. I notified Charley immediately, opened all windows, and aired out the unit all night long, and odor dissipated the next day. Charley responded the next day, apologizing and offering to send over the cleaning crew, but we declined as we were able to open windows. All in all, a nice stay.
Brad R.
October 2023 5.00I was able to check in earlier than the listed check in time, which worked well cause I drove from a few states away. I really enjoyed the peaceful environment and the ability to see the night sky.
Stephanie E.
October 2023 5.00Wonderful set of tiny homes. Turquoise Door was just as expected. Found myself saying “this place is so cute” several times. Nicely stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, nice outdoor area with fire pit. Even when people were at the other tiny homes it still felt very private. Close to several amenities and beautiful outdoor recreation areas. Charley was responsive and friendly. I’ll be back!
Tessa M.
September 2023 5.00We had a great time here! Loved the small community feel and it was the perfect location to stay at in western Colorado. Charley was a great host and very friendly!

Janie J.
August 2023 5.00Lovely! Watched the sunset from the hammock and flipped around to watch Saturn and the Blue Moon rise. Hope to visit again!
Josh B.
August 2023 5.00This was the best hospitality I have ever received using Airbnb. The snack accommodations and fully equipped kitchen made me feel like I was at a hotel. The place is also located only 50 paces from a nice trail along a river. Loved staying here and will definitely be back!
Pratik M.
August 2023 5.00Cute and cozy. Enjoyed the stay here.
Lily R.

Ryan W.

Elinore B.
August 2023 5.00I can’t speak highly enough of our trip! Every accommodation you could wish for, and an unbelievably welcoming host. He’s cleared out a great trail following the river that has great sights of the nearby canyon landscapes. If you’re a nature lover like me, you’ll be excited to see tons of bird species including quails, hummingbirds, warblers, buntings, kingfishers, cormorants and more! The stars at night were amazing and we could even see the Milky Way. Definitely a great place to use as a base on your adventures!
Hailey L.
August 2023 5.00We arrived super late unfortunately, but Charley was great! The stars were out and the house was ready. We stayed until the last second because we didn’t want to leave! Even my son said he wants to live in a place like the Turquoise door! Very well done! :)
Caroline C.
August 2023 5.00Incredibly well stocked and nice spot! Thanks!
Greyson W.
August 2023 5.00This place is an awesome little spot to stay!
Justin P.
August 2023 5.00The turquoise door was exactly what we needed. A beautiful sunset welcomed us and we rose to an incredible sunrise right out the front window. The small touches made this place feel even more special. A comfy bed and a hot shower were what we came for but it provided so much more. Jen was excited for the coffee!! We loved staying here.
Kimberly K.
August 2023 5.00Our stay was a last minute stop just passing through. My daughter wanted to stay in a cabin at least one night on vacation. We booked this morning of our visit. It was very easy to find and it was well stocked. It’s such an adorable space. My girls especially loved the loft with the bed, popsicles in the freezer and the little jar to leave happy notes. We didn’t have a fire due to dry conditions but everything we needed to have a fire was there. Take the little walk down to the lookout for a sunset or sunrise. They have a book with so many good recommendations for things in the area. The hammocks and covered picnic table was the perfect place for a couple rounds of early morning card games with my kids. They have some books and cards and games available. Was the perfect little stop and my kids wanted to stay the rest of our vacation right there. Would 110% stay again if we are in the area!
Margaux C.
July 2023 5.00super clean and beautiful location

Alexandria B.
July 2023 5.00We very much enjoyed staying here, it was peaceful and stocked with everything you need. The place was cleaned very well and felt very comfortable. It is a great location, close enough to black canyon, telluride and crested butte. I would definitely book again!
Cait C.
July 2023 5.00My family and I stayed here for one night to visit the black canyon gunnison national park and it was lovely. We would definitely stay again!

July 2023 5.00Good place to stay the fruit stands are really close and have amazing fruits and veggies
Chengsheng Z.
July 2023 5.00I stayed at Charley’s place for two days. Everything is accurately described in the profile. There are also a few warm touches in the house that enhances the experience a lot. Very decent place to stay. My only issue is the flies, big and small ones. There are a bit too many of them. I hope this can help with the future improvement.

Rebecca B.
July 2023 5.00We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Turquoise cabin! We loved staying at the tiny house for our anniversary weekend. Our favorite park was the bonfire out front. Made s’mores every night. Incredibly peaceful area.

July 2023 5.00We had such a great time staying here for a night on the way to Telluride! Really fun, comfortable place with everything we could have asked for. Highly recommended!

Dennis D.
June 2023 5.00Third time staying at the Turquoise Door. This time was for two weeks visiting my daughter and family in Delta. Great place to stay with nice little touches that make it feel homey. I'm a hiker and within an hours drive there are some fantastic hikes. Local wines up near Paonia Charley is a great host and I'd recommend staying at any of his tiny houses.
Jennifer L.
June 2023 5.00Wonderful stay! Perfect place to watch the sunrise:) Thanks!
Levi L.
June 2023 5.00This is my wife and i's second stay at the turquoise door. This time we brought our friends along to stay with us. We stayed for one week . What i really like most about Charley's space here is that its very centrally located for lots of breath taking views and fun things to do. We were about an hour away from a bunch of major sights to see, Grand Mesa, Escalante-Dominguez Conservation area, Grand Junction, Black Canyon and so many others. We played golf at cedaredge golf course and devils thumb course in delta. And when we werent out sight seeing and fishing we were hanging out in the front of our tiny homes grilling, playing cards and enjoying eachothers company with the san juan to the south, grand mesa to the north and gunnison natl forest to the west all in view. Charley is a great host and even found time to come greet us on our stay. didnt need to contact him for anything really. Everything we needed was already in place for us to enjoy a week of bliss in the high deser. 10/10

Errin G.
May 2023 5.00This was the perfect place for me and my girlfriend to celebrate my 32nd birthday. The fire pit outside came in clutch so we could enjoy the cooler desert climate after the sun goes down. Plenty of spots to sit and relax around the campfire under the stars. The bathroom has an infrared light, a detail I missed when reading the amenities, that was probably one of our favorite things about this tiny home. That and the little loft/fort that made us feel like little kids again. We ended up taking a day trip to the black canyon of the Gunnison National Park which I highly recommend. It’s about an hr drive, but it’s totally worth it. Thanks again Charlie for letting us stay on your beautiful property, we hope to come back sometime and enjoy it once again!
Justin S.
May 2023 5.00We stayed a night at the turquoise door this Memorial Day weekend. It was a great experience! The tiny home was just what we expected and Charley was a great host. He had the fire set up for our arrival so that all we needed to do was light it. There were also otter pops included in the freezer which were such a great touch. Loved having them while laying in the hammock
Hunter D.
May 2023 5.00A great weekend retreat for us! The drive from Denver was beautiful and the stay was seamless.
Sarah L.
May 2023 5.00This was such a great stay! We arrived late at night but were still able to find our place. Charley used mostly automated responses—I couldn’t say if I ever received a genuine response—which were helpful with basic information. The Airbnb itself was well stocked for such a small house! That was part of the charm with not being too furnished but still livable amount of amenities for those taking small steps into tiny house living. We enjoyed the somewhat remote location. Orchard City is about 45 mins-1 hour drive to any larger city but plenty of little towns dotted along the way. If you’re looking for trails and outdoor things to do, I highly recommend the app AllTrails. The app shows local trails and trips and you can see how they’re reviewed by other hikers. It made our time at our stay so much more exciting. The other tiny houses were a little closer than I had thought but our neighbors (when we had any) were very respectful of our privacy. I would recommend these stays to everyone!
Vincent T.
May 2023 5.00Beautiful views. Clean and well maintained. Peaceful.

Jeeho S.
May 2023 5.00Loved this place! Very clean and had everything we needed to grill and have a bonfire.
Arielle R.
April 2023 5.00Turquoise house was a perfect get-away. You are on site with 3 other homes but all are arranged to have some private outside areas and a fire pit. Tranquil and serene.
Madison C.
April 2023 5.00Wish we had more time here to enjoy the peace and pretty of the area. Would definitely stay at again.
Ella K.
April 2023 5.00This place was amazing! I absolutely loved it and it was everything tat I was hoping for this weekend! Great host and location and the place was absolutely adorable, homey, and clean! I highly recommend this place, especially if you love sitting at campfires and stargazing. I will definitely be coming back to this place and HIGHLY recommend!!
Kathryn H.
April 2023 5.00This was the perfect place for a last-minute getaway! I enjoyed this comfortable and sweet space very much. It's cozy but spacious, extremely clean, peaceful, a lovely location, and had great internet connection (so work went smoothly). Charley is a very thoughtful host who has created a special spot. The Turquoise Door has everything and I highly recommend it!
Abby S.
April 2023 5.00Charley’s tiny house was lovely! Likely the most well stocked Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in and Charley was super helpful with supplying information regarding our stay!

April 2023 5.00Great place to stay!
Jacquie C.
April 2023 5.00What a great place to stop on a road trip…This tiny house has views of sunset and sunrise and has easy parking and great outdoor space. Quiet, and you can see the stars, if you’re lucky a beautiful shooting star! Bed was super comfy, wish I could have stayed a touch longer. Thanks Charley!
Christine E.
April 2023 5.00Lovely stay!
Sonalee P.
April 2023 5.00We had an amazing time at this place. This time house has everything you'll need. The host Charley has made sure of that. We absolutely loved everything from location to the house. The view is to die for! Highly recommended!
Luke A.
April 2023 5.00Charley was a fantastic host. Communication was excellent. The property was cleaned to a very high standard. Thoughtful host who added little extras which were appreciated. Would definitely recommend.
Andrew B.
March 2023 5.00We loved our stay! The house was cozy and clean. The scenery was beautiful. Charley left a very helpful handbook with instructions on how to use different appliances/amenities, local food and bar recommendations, and even hike/walk recommendations. Check-in was super easy, and Charley was a welcoming, easy going host. We will be back sometime!
Janice B.
March 2023 5.00The Tiny house was very charming and cozy for me, my husband and fur babies. The walk to and overview of the river was very cool. The area surrounding the Tiny homes was great for the dogs. Many nearby cities to explore which all have amenities, restaurants, activities etx. We’ve been in many of the surrounding areas and this is one of our favorites. Charlie is wonderful to work with and tiny home was fun and completely comfy. We highly recommend staying in one of Charley’s Tiny homes any time of year! He doesn’t disappoint. We’ll be back!
Molly H.
March 2023 5.00This was an amazing stay for my son and I. Beautiful surroundings, a wonderful getaway and experience. We would highly recommend and hopefully have a return visit.
Kaitlin B.
March 2023 5.00This little home was perfect! Very comfy and clean place. Had everything I needed :). Charley was very friendly too. Wifi worked great when I needed to work remotely.
Jessica L.
March 2023 5.00Second time staying here on a roadtrip with my partner: once on the way out and once on the way back. It's that good! Charley has a great property and has provided what you need to feel at home in his tiny homes, including a great guest binder. One of our favorite parts of staying at the Turquoise Door is the ability to have a bonfire - Charley provides lots of wood! A good tip would be to pick up the tiniest bag of charcoal on your way in, we borrowed some from a neighbor and it proved to be the perfect shortcut to a fantastic fire. Can't wait to stay here again!
Alaura M.
March 2023 5.00We enjoyed our stay here in Colorado. Our place was picturesque with beautiful scenery all around. The Turquoise Door had everything we needed and more!
Jessica D.
March 2023 5.00The Turquoise Door is awesome! Very welcoming and cute, but has everything you need to enjoy your stay. The home was well stocked with all of the extras. The space is well used and tastefully decorated. The location was very quiet and serene. The store was only 5 minutes away and has everything fresh and tasty!
Richard L.
March 2023 5.00Great location
Javdat A.
March 2023 5.00Great location with a quiet place and amenities are top notch. I would recommend staying a few more days to catch the stars.
Dan P.
March 2023 5.00I loved how peaceful the environment was. Charley was very responsive, attentive and friendly. We loved exploring the town and had some great foods near the cabin (there are some recommendations by Charlie) It was so nice to wake up and step outside and see the surrounding areas. On our second day we drove to Ouray hot springs which was only an hour away, with beautiful scenery. I definitely recommend driving there when the sun is still out and bring some good boots! This place is great to unwind and relax. Definitely feel refreshed after leaving.
Jessica L.
March 2023 5.00My partner and I stayed two nights at the Turquoise Door - and LOVED it! The size of the home was perfect for our needs. We had a fire the first night with the provided supplies, and stargazed under the March full moon. Charley was a fantastic host: he responded to questions about local recommendations, provided a great binder in the cabin, and even introduced himself in person when he was around doing upkeep. The bathroom was clean, a good size, and kept warm by the heat lamp. And it was great to have a full sized fridge. Everything was exactly as promised & I cannot wait to stay at the Turquoise Door again!!!
Rebecca S.
March 2023 5.00We loved our stay here! It was more than enough space for two people and we enjoyed the River right next to the location. There was a beautiful overlook where we enjoyed a sunset dinner one evening and the sunrise the next morning. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, this is the place to do it. So peaceful and Charley was so helpful. Definitely hope to come back!
Karina J.
February 2023 4.00Beautiful place to stay it! The view is amazing! And Charley is trully helpful at making you feel right at home!
Alondra G.
February 2023 5.00The perfect place for two. Very comfortable and well taken care of.
Brandon P.
February 2023 4.00The house was nice and clean. Outside area was clean. Host very responsive and answered all questions quickly
Kristen H.
January 2023 5.00Loved my stay here! Charley was very helpful and responsive. The space was very clean and felt super cozy! Would definitely come again
Turquoise door was great. It’s the first time we’ve ever talked about returning to an air bnb. Good choice, pull the trigger.
The tiny house had everything we needed and great location for viewing sunrise from the hammock! Clean space and very responsive polite hosts!
Absolutely lovely stay! I hope I get the chance to visit again sometime soon!
Amazing tiny house!!
This tiny home was great. It is super homey and cozy. You get really comfortable right away. It is in a beautiful area and you get your privacy as promised. The host is very nice and super responsive when needed. We definitely want to come back someday!
Our 3rd visit! Always a great time… memories for a lifetime too. Thanks Charley!
I had an extended stay at the Turquoise Door. It was my second time there. Charley is a great host and would highly recommend staying here.
Very clean and nice cabin. Had a great time and the fire pit was a very nice touch.
So cozy and relaxing. Perfect get a way!
Charley’s place was fantastic. It was the most adorable and very clean tiny house. We appreciated the excellent communication and the amenities in the tiny house that made it so cozy and the perfect getaway. Highly recommend!
Charley was a great host! The beautiful house was exactly as described and we loved the thoughtful touches. The house had everything we needed, and we would love to stay here again next time we are back in the general area.
Wonderful stay with beautiful views!!
We loved our stay at the Turquoise Door. The space is small but just what we needed! The bed and linens were super cozy, everything was clean, and the location was great for where we were hanging out.
Wow. Really enjoyed our stay here. It had everything we needed. Definitely check out the night sky. Charlie was very nice and responded quickly if we needed anything.
Great little spot. It’s small and simple but has a lot of great touches of hospitality and efficient, thoughtful design. Charlie’s communication was 10/10 every step along the way.
Place is a great spot to stop and rest while on a road trip. Great weather in October
This was the perfect stay to visit Black Canyon and Colorado National Monument! The listing was described accurately! I would stay again if in the area again.
Après une longue journée sur la route cette Tiny House est un havre de paix! Tout est très cosy et il y a tout ce qu’il faut pour se sentir bien. Je recommande sans hésiter
The place itself is clean and cozy, looking as described. There were some parts that I wish were better though. We arrived when it was dark and the navigation couldn’t find the place so we had to drive around the ‘town’ for many times, and the host didn’t respond to my text(there was no way to call). Communication felt rough as the host didn’t respond to my text also earlier in the day. The bathroom switch stopped working too..
Clean, cozy, nice!
Loved you place, thanks for the great communication across all areas.
I’ve been all over the world including all over the states. The amount of stars out here was astonishing. The milky way was visible as soon as it was sun down. I would stay here again without a second thought.
It was exactly as advertised. Everything went smoothly!
We are on an extended motorcycle tour and the day of our stay was rainy. This was a perfect spot to unwind from a stressful, cold, and wet day. We brought groceries for dinner and breakfast so we could stay in and totally relax. Charley had most everything we needed to make a lovely dinner. I would recommend a bowl to toss a salad, but all in all, what we needed was there. Too bad it was raining as we could have enjoyed the fire pit and hammock. Thank you Charley!
We stayed at The Turquoise Door for four nights and absolutely loved it. A tranquil setting not too far from grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Gorgeous 360 views and our own fire ring (wood provided) made evenings so pleasant to spend outdoors. Charley's place was stocked with coffee, tea, and many other items for cooking/consumption. We will definitely return and bring friends and family with us to enjoy these tiny houses again!
We weren’t able to make it but he took care of us. Thanks
Upon arrival we breathed a sigh of relief after a disappointing hotel stay the night before. This is why Airbnb stays surpass hotels. Cozy, homey and clean clean clean. We will be returning as soon as we can!!!
A great, relaxing stay with all the amenities we needed! We throughly enjoyed our visit and would stay again.
Charley’s place was exactly what we were looking for. It was a perfect stop on our road trip and we are looking forward to coming back for a longer stay. The home was very clean and it had everything we needed. Highly recommended!
What a fantastic little spot! This tiny house was well-stocked and is well cared for. The property is cute and quiet and we would absolutely have loved to have been able to stay for more than one night. Be sure to stay up and check out the stars and the Milky Way1 :)
Charley's place was great! Some very nice views and would've had incredible views of the starry sky if not for some lingering evening storms. Super cozy and comfortable place, although I will warn you the loft gets pretty warm (they have provided a small fan to help). Highly recommend this place and will consider staying here again if I'm back in the area.
What an absolute gem! The design of the interior makes you feel right at home. The beds are super comfy. The outdoor space is well designed. The kitchen does have a microwave (I couldn't tell from the listing) and the hot plate is easy to use. I loved the nearby area that you can walk to and with a great view of the valley and the river. I can't wait to come back and visit again!
The perfect little tiny home. Has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Loved sitting outside under the stars and watching the sunset. Very quiet area so it makes for a relaxing stay. I really enjoyed all the natural light and windows; you can watch the sunrise from your bed and watch the sunset as you're cooking dinner! Charley was a great host, made me feel very welcomed and answered my questions promptly. Can't wait to return!
Very cozy and comfy place, the fire pit is awesome!
Beautiful stay under the stars! We loved our stay in this home. The beds were comfortable, the home was very accommodating, and the outdoor area was exactly as we imagined! Communication was great throughout the process!
Beautiful space. You could just show up with food and yourself and you’d be set!! Camp fire wood, s’mores, ash tray, bug spray. Everything is there!
Our stay at the Turquoise door was an amazing one! Charley's place is filled with anything one need and has this great look and vibe to it. The fire pit outside with the immense skys and mountains in the distance, makes it the perfect getaway. Charley recommended a hike (Crag Crest in Grand Mesa), DO IT! It's beyond gorgeous!
Fantastic place to disconnect and really take in the beauty of Colorado. Loved our time here and wish we could have stayed longer. Charley was a fantastic host and the property couldn’t be more welcoming.
We had a wonderful stay! The night sky was breathtaking and the tiny house was so cozy and cute. Would love to stay again!
This place is amazing. Clean clean clean! Everything you could need. Perfect fire in evening. Great middle location to visit both the north and south rim of Black Canyon. Loft bed not good if you’re tall. Can’t wait to return. I’m sure it’s an amazing place for night skies, but cloud while I was there. Easy to get to and positive vibes.
Great little cozy place to stay! Very well equipped too
The Tiny House was a perfect stay - cozy and clean, comfortable bed, supplied coffee, and firewood. The recommended walk to ‘The Draw’ is a must.
Great location, everything as advertised
This place is wonderful! I loved stargazing on the hammock. It’s the perfect place to get away from it all with modest commodities.
Our family had a wonderful stay at the Turquoise Door and wished we could have stayed longer. The Milky Way sky at night is unforgettable and the hammock was exactly what I needed for a little R&R. Charley was super responsive and truly thought of every little detail that we could've needed during our stay. We look forward to staying again the next time we are in the area.
We had a great time staying at Charley's place. You can't beat the natural light in the morning and the stars at night. We also loved chilling in the hammock while watching the sun set. The kitchen and bathroom were fully stocked which is always much appreciated especially if you forget some things. I would highly recommend staying here!
Had so much fun at this tiny house! Exactly as portrayed. Two nights were perfect for us. We enjoyed the fire pit, visiting Big B’s Orchard and Black Canyon of the Gunnison then just relaxing in the cute space. Thanks Charley!!
We were so impressed with this tiny home. It was cozy and had all the amenities you could need. We enjoyed it as home-base while we explored the surrounding area. Charley was super responsive when we reached out and answered all our questions. Hope to return some day!
Great place to stay. Enjoyed relaxing in the hammock and the tiny home was a great place to stay cool, work, and relax.
Charley's tiny homes are so cool and so well stocked with everything you could possibly need! The property is beautiful with mountain views directly in front of the home. The home is also great for stargazing on a clear night, and even has starlight windows built into the roof. It's in a great central location for everything western Colorado has to offer. I would very happily stay here again!
This place is super awesome. Quiet and comfortable. Worth going out of the way for. Great landlord. Very responsive.
This tiny home felt just right for our getaway! Peaceful comfort in an amazing setting--it's close to so many beautiful adventures. We would love to return and do it all again!
A treasure of a tiny home that left me inspired and rest to take on anything . Charley is attentive and always available and genuinely a great host! Kudos to the whole team who work hard to make it a stunning place to book!
Amazing stay and great location! Tons to do within a 40-50min drive. Highly recommend.
Charley was great. Very responsive and will interact with you as much or as little as you want.
Really enjoyed my stay at this tiny home. It was clean, easy to find, and was the perfect place to crash after a long drive from the national parks. Charley was an excellent communicator and easy to work with. Definitely recommend.
Between the ease of checking in and the adorable tiny cabin, Charley's airbnb was an amazing experience. The cabin was exactly what I needed to spend some time alone away from the city, and I highly recommend it! The views are gorgeous. The cabin is clean (and smells fantastic). And the hammock is a fun added bonus. If you're looking for a sign to rent this cabin, here it is :)
This place is great. Charley was responsive and had the space prepped, stocked and ready for us to relax in. The kitchen is full of items that we didn’t have to buy, and then some! Can’t wait to stay here again.
Beautiful tiny home with peace, quiet, and so many stars!! Located not too far from lots of other amazing views, besides the ones provided on site
Great place to stay!
Wow, what a fantastic place. The views were amazing, location so convenient. I really cannot think of any place I’ve ever stayed that was better equipped. There are so many thoughtful touches, it really feels like home. The fire pit and night sky was superb. Bedding and shower were comfortable and all you could ask for. Wifi- fast, easy, everything was easy. Great communication, can’t say enough good things, don’t hesitate to book this!
I cannot recommend this place enough!!! It is the perfect place for a quiet getaway.
Nice, well kept place. Everything you’d need in one Lil house.
Our stay at the Turquoise Door Tiny home was so comfortable and quiet.
Super clean, easy to find, fun amenities, and friendly vibes. Highly recommend!
Charley was so nice and helpful, and the place was the perfect desert escape! Not isolated but still feels very private, and the home itself was so lovely.
10 minutes from grocery stores and fast food. Beautiful views. Was able to cook for three days in the tiny home!
Perfect spot for a getaway. There's so much thoughtfulness and care that was put into this tiny home. Great location for stargazing around the camp fire and quiet nights.
Wonderful experience! Very cozy and great hospitality.
Everything was very user friendly. We had a nice amount of privacy and a wonderful view of the night sky. They were awesome hosts, super friendly and polite. We really enjoyed our stay there.
We packed all of the warm clothes and had no need for them, this tiny house was the perfect escape we were looking for. We can't wait to come back, Charley has thought of everything - thank you!!!
Absolutely loved staying here. It’s perfect for a relaxing, peaceful trip. Walk down to the Draw in the mornings and evenings, you won’t regret it. I would definitely stay here again.
I highly recommend this tiny house and would also love to stay in the others on the property. It’s in a great location, a great value and the host was very kind and professional. A campfire outside while the sun is setting is hard to beat!
Cozy home!
Very cozy and intimate cabin. It looks small from the outside but there’s a good amount of space on the inside. The trail down the road that’s recommended by Charley is definitely worth looking at. It was very clean and Charley is very helpful and friendly.
Amazing tiny home . Great experience:)
If you need a respite; If you need time away from a world that is going too fast and won’t slow down; if you need quiet and beauty and peace in your life, I highly recommend a few nights at The Turquoise Door. After seven and a half months of caring for my aging parents and saying goodbye to one of them, I needed a place where my soul could be refreshed on my way back to being wife and mom to my own family. Colorado skies are a special kind of blue. The Gunnison River a beautiful kind of flow. Nighttime skies were so dark and so quiet the stars screamed in their brightest twinkles. Finally, The Turquoise Door was a perfect combination of modern amenities and minimalist living. I highly recommend exploring the trails along the Gunnison, flinging open the blinds before sunrise to watch the metamorphosis of colors as the sun peaks over the mountains right in front of you, and you absolutely must sleep “upside down” in the loft bed so you can watch those stars through the skylights above you before drifting off to sleep. I needed respite, so extensive exploring wasn’t my thing, but I knew if I wanted to there was so much to do within a short drive. Delta, CO is a mere 15 minutes away if you need groceries or grab a bite to eat, too. I will be back. Many times. My heart is always at home in Colorado and I have found a new favorite place to land when I visit. With Charley quick to respond to questions and help in navigating the area this was a great experience. Thanks, Charley - I look forward to the next time!
Extremely cute and cozy! Close to some amazing parks and wineries but far enough away to have that "we escaped the craziness!" feeling. 10 for 10 recommend!
