Introduction

Return to a time at the turn of the century when quality, elegance,
and value set the standards. Relive the Elegant Past...

Built in 1909, The Mansion has been recently renovated and restored to its original splendor. We opened as a new bed and breakfast in the spring of 2006 and are now open to guests year-round. The Mansion is located in the heart of the scenic San Luis Valley in the central Southern part of Colorado. We are nestled in downtown Monte Vista within walking distance of several restaurants, a movie theater and downtown shopping. We have surrounding views of the Sangre de Cristo, La Garita and San Juan Mountain Ranges where outdoor activities abound year-round.
