    Once you visit this ranch, you'll want to come back over and over again. My parents started…read morebringing me as a kid, and now I bring my own kids here. Bruce Spruce Ranch is a very peaceful place, nestled in a quiet valley at the bottom of Wolf Creek Pass, just 15 minutes north of Pagosa Springs. Here you can get back to nature, where you sleep in a cabin warmed by a potbelly stove with firewood you chop yourself. Kids have tons of activities, including multiple playgrounds, a creek to play in, hiking trails, tetherball, cornhole, and dozens of free board games and puzzles. So relax and sit on the porch swing - every cabin has one, or catch some rainbow trout for dinner in the fully stocked pond. Book a horseback ride, hike up to Treasure Falls, or just sit in an adirondack chair and watch the chipmunks and hummingbirds. Gather the family around the nightly campfire to enjoy hot dogs and s'mores, and spend the night telling stories under a night sky with millions of stars, free of light pollution. And if you need to reconnect to the outside world, the ranch offers Starlink with fast WiFi in every cabin and throughout the RV park. Spend a few days here, and I promise you'll be back.

    So funny story, but my family swore up and down that they knew The Hingers from Bruce Spruce Ranch!…read moreThey grew up in Amarillo, TX and I just think how funny what a small world it is. This is a great place to bring your family to relax around the campfire in the evening; and during the day go hiking, fishing, do some horseback riding, or sightseeing in the surrounding area. The Hinger family has been running Bruce Spruce Ranch since 1966, so it's a family owned business. I really thought it was incredibly romantic stopping by! We stumbled upon Bruce Spruce Ranch in West Fork Campground. We absolutely enjoyed how hot and humid it was in May of this year and enjoyed interacting with the horses. They are incredibly busy, so it was kind of tricky to reserve a spot. I admired looking at all the horses and their many colors. Back in the Day: The cabins rented for somewhere in the area of $2.00 per night, and reservations were made at least a year in advance. Today, the four Hingers, with the help of other family members, continue operating the guest ranch and making improvements, welcoming some families every year into the fourth generation. It is a great place to bring family to relax, fish, hike, sight-see or go horseback riding.

My wife had been there before but this was…read moreour first time together and with our Husky Pupp. When we drove up I said "aw these are cute" when we pulled up to our cabin and opened the door I said "oh mah gawd! These are amazingly perfect!" Lol it was such a cute cabin and they literally thought of everything! From dog bag with blankets towels treats etc (don't use human towels/linens for your dog! Use what they provided) to everything in the kitchen to make all your meals. We had the 1 bed room pet friendly cabin so no oven but a 2 burner stove. One burner didn't work but we only cooked breakfast and only needed 1 so we were fine. Our porch light was out the first night and they came to replace within 5 minutes if that. The grounds are kept beautifully and even when someone else let their dog roam free and they pooped by our car, we picked it up so it didn't take away from the beautiful landscape. I felt so calm, peaceful and serene. Did I mention all the SNOW! Lol No issues at all with check in (4p) or check out (11a). It's right down the road from the stores, dispensaries, and shops --all were open but the restaurants were doing take out only. Not a biggie since the pandemic we didn't want to be around other ppl anyways lol The gas fireplace kept it nice and cozy and ppl kept the noise down, it was vacant til Friday when we saw a lot more ppl but when we checked in on Thursday it was only another family there so it was very quiet. Overall, we are very pleased with Fireside and will be back!

    NO AIR CONDITIONER!!!! nowhere on the website does it say…read morethat they don't have air-conditioning. I went in the summertime and it was so hot in the cabin. 81° when we arrived (with all shades closed) at night it only got down to about 73-75. However, the cabin itself is very clean, great accommodations, and right near everything you want to be at. I would definitely be coming back but in the winter. (Again AC) Great price and friendly staff.

It is one of our favorites now, and we can't wait to go back. The new manager's of the property Christopher and Jessica are fabulous hosts. From the moment we stepped through the wooden entrance doors, we felt a calm and peace fall over us. We stayed in the Abiquiu Lake Suite and it was amazing. Jessica greeted us and showed us around the property and our suite and we settled in. The Hacienda is tucked on a hill, down several dirt roads and through an entrance gate, you may begin to wonder if you are on the right path, just follow their instructions and you will be fine. The property is beautiful with stunning views. With just 3 rooms, you will feel like you have the place to yourself. The breakfast room/great room with a fireplace is a wonderful gathering spot with games. Step out on the patio or walk down the short path to the jacuzzi, it is beautiful. Now to our room. The king bed was so comfortable, the two indoor chairs at the foot of the bed are comfy and easy to sit and read. But even better, step out onto your private patio with chaise lounges and soak in the views of the lake and landscape. All 3 rooms have their own private patio's, you can't go wrong with any of them. The bathroom was huge with double sinks and the shower huge. We were extremely comfortable. The breakfasts at the inn are scrumptious. Our first breakfast started with vanilla yogurt and chia seeds, topped with honey, fresh fruit and mint. Then Jessica brought out Avocado toast with pine nuts and a soft egg. By now I am happily full. But wait, Jessica and Christopher bring out the main breakfast walnut bread French toast with syrup and almond whipped cream, with potato hash. Mr. B had ham also, with me being primarily vegetarian I had roasted fresh figs with goat cheese. We did have dinner one night during our stay and again it was delicious. Each afternoon, there is a snack for the guests in the great room too. There is a guest utility type room with a refrigerator, so if you have drinks or juices you want to keep cold, you can store them in the fridge. Our stay was truly memorable, it couldn't have been any better and exceeded our expectations. We will absolutely go back just to relax for a few days.

Within two hours of arriving, we fell in love with the place so much we cancelled our next hotel and added a night at the Grand Hacienda! The property is on top of a mesa by itself and looks out for miles around at the lake, red rock cliffs and stunning mountains all around. Carolyn and Tom were amazing hosts, and take care to make sure everyone's stay is nothing less than perfect. The three course breakfasts they serve are out of this world and we looked forward to them each day. We feel like we gained friends in Carolyn and Tom and have recommended it to our friends and family. We can't wait to go back!

    After searching for a place to stay in Northern New Mexico, I came across Cliff River Springs. I…read morewas super excited, as the place appeared gorgeous and remote, exactly what we were looking for. Our expectations were not only met, but exceeded many times over. From the friendly and welcoming hosts to the absolutely stunning landscape, this place is totally amazing. The Casita - We were lucky and got an upgrade to Upper Stream. What a gorgeous place. Warm wood floors, a full and well equipped kitchen, a nice gas fireplace, little touches around the place, all really made it feel incredibly cozy and welcoming. We ate out a few times but brought plenty of food to cook breakfast and lunch on site. Our stay lasted four days, so it felt almost like home! The Land - I am an urbanite, so this place was literally nirvana to me. We saw a hawk in action, and heard coyotes. We went on a nice walk, along the dry river bed and up into the hills. I was giddy with the the views and plant life bursting around me. Just be sure to bring a hat! It's bright/warm out there (we were there in early October). I fell in love with the pond! It was an oasis in the dry climate of New Mexico. We spent a lot of time sitting up there, taking in the view. My traveling companion went swimming, too! I can't say enough good things about Cliff River Springs. Those four days will stay with me for many, many moons to come.

I spent an…read moreincredible five weeks (04/01/2021 - 05/06/2021) in "Cliff Mid" casita on the Cliff River Springs property. I will start with the gracious manager, Hope, then the property, and finally the casita. My five week stay was phenomenal because of Hope Atterbury. Hope's kindness and attentiveness pierced through me from our first email correspondence to my last day. She responded to my emails quickly (I have a feature phone without vowifi but got good reception around the upper pond, the plaza, and the parking lot). Hope appropriately checked on my wellbeing without being annoying. During my stay I did not have a vehicle (I still don't lol). Hope generously offered and picked up groceries from me whenever she went into town. Without her kindness, I would have been very hungry, but I still would have enjoyed the scenery and my casita. The Cliff River Springs property is vast, varied, and vibrant. After my arrival, Hope showed me around the beautiful property; more importantly, she showed me the map of the property and the guide to the various trails and hikes on the property. During the first two weeks, I had an amazing time exploring the property and trails. Listening, feeling, smelling, and watching nature be reborn was peaceful and soul satisfying. After the weather warmed and I got some courage, I took several rejuvenating swims in the upper pond. Later on I found a distinguished, tremendous tree to share energy, practice yoga, meditate, and observe life near my casita (the tree is near the longest bench and valley overview area). My casita, "Cliff Mid," was quiet, charming, and cozy. "Cliff Mid" contained everything I needed to feel at home. It had great wifi, a full sink, refrigerator, dishes, salt, olive oil, various tea bags, tea kettle, soap, towels, a gas range and oven, a toaster, dining table, full size bed with a thick comforter, sofa, arm chair, bathroom, electric heat baseboards, yoga mat, books, pots and pans, spices, and hot sauce. My favorite part of the casita are the windows. There is one window in the front and three windows in the back of the casita. I love the refreshing air flow with all the windows open. Also being able to watch the birds, especially the humming birds, from the front window and listen to the stream from the back windows is spectacular. One of the best parts of my adventure at Cliff River Springs were the moments I shared with the other guests and staff. I had different neighbors during my stay. Everyone had positive, calm aura; additionally, everyone was friendly. Whether you come by yourself, with a friend, or with a bunch of family, you will enjoy the harmony and nature at Cliff River Springs. You will leave relaxed and happier (maybe a little sad leaving because you want to stay longer). I plan to return to Cliff River Springs to experience its magic during each season. I started in spring next is summer.

This was the third time we have gone, coming from AZ. Mary, specifically, that works for the resort was amazing and so much help!

She treated us like family and genuinely cared that we made the most of our time there. Mary's kindness and exceptional service made all the difference, and we're so grateful for everything she did. She's a huge asset to The Springs Resort, and we can't wait to come back! Also, we were having so much fun, I should have taken more photos.

All is fine since you'll spend most of your time in the water anyway. The entrance fee I didn't mind paying, but I felt that it should have included towels. Towels were an extra purchase on top of your entry fee. Luckily, I got a refund for my towel purchase because it is included with the purchase of a cabana which wasn't clear on the website. The pools themselves were nice with varying levels of heat. The amenities were also good. Our server, McKayla was great.
