Willowtail Springs and three classy cabins await you amid the sun-washed landscapes of Southwest Colorado. Nestled on an enchanting 60 acres of fields, forests, streams, breathtaking gardens and a large lake filled with bass. Canoes and row boat sit by the dock ready to escort guests. Fish, dream, and watch birds, double rainbows or Colorado mountain sunsets when the mist hangs low on the surface of the water. Lie in peace as the sunrise filters gently through the lace and trees. Luxuriate in the hot tub perched on an outcropping of rock over the lake. Take in the galaxy above; the shooting stars, the moon and, if you are lucky, the northern lights.
Romantic getaways, honeymoons, anniversary, elopements, small weddings, birthdays,
family vacations, reunions and artist retreats are perfect at Willowtail Springs.
Secluded but not remote, we are directly located on the San Juan Skyway Loop. Guests take day trips to attractions in Mancos, Dolores, Telluride, Ouray, Ridgeway, Silverton, and Durango. We are just 10 minutes from the entrance to Mesa Verde National Park, 30 minutes from Durango and the Silverton train, the Anasazi Heritage Museum and the Ute Mountain Tribal Park. The mystical vastness of Hovenweep, Dolores Canyon Outlook, Canyonlands, Monument Valley and Arches National Park are only 90 minutes away.
Guests come with a full itinerary, but succumb to the spell
of Willowtail Springs, unable to pull themselves away.

Experience Willowtail Springs in all Seasons
Many beautiful places exist in the Southwest, but Willowtail Springs seems to be an especially magical and inspirational place for people who have stayed here. We have hosted artists, writers, photographers, meditation groups, couples and families, all of whom seem to relax and shine in this setting.
From the decks, windows, fields and forests a variety of birds are always present. We are a Release Site for Birds through the Durango Wildlife Rehabilitation Center licensed by the Colorado Division of Wildlife.
"World Class!" ~ Jackie and Bob - Texas
The property is blessed with an uncommon wealth of water. Fed by a spring, irrigation water and run-off, the lake provides a healthy habitat for large mouth bass and other species. The plentiful irrigation water creates an additional source of water which weaves through forests, fields and meadows filling wildlife ponds as it meanders or rushes through the land and joins existing streams on its route.
Stewardship of the varied ecosystems on the land is our passion, our meditation, our magic, our breath, our practice and our reward. Lush gardens, wilderness, ancient forests, meadows, sun dappled oases and intimate shady grooves have consumed us for years.
The seasons are as varied as the landscape. Be sure and sample winter, fall and early spring as well as summer
