Somerset Vacations from $987

What a joy to spend a couple of days at the Dunton Townhouse in Telluride. It was by far the most pleasant accommodation on our SoCA to MN and back road trip. The house is perfectly located near the main street, gondola, excellent restaurants, and the ambiance of all Telluride has to offer. Jennifer greeted us upon arrival and gave us a tour of the house and all the amenities available to us. She helped us with street parking nearby. Any house guest would be very fortunate to find themselves here. The refrigerator downstairs and the bar upstairs were fully stocked and available to us. Our room was beautiful, luxurious, and thoughtfully designed. Every aspect was created for guest comfort. The charm of the historic home was retained. Breakfast was a treat. The best fresh squeezed orange juice, pastries, cheeses, berries, and yogurt with other worldly granola were on the table. A coffee and tea bar were also always available to guests. We were there in August and walked all over town. Year round guests would find the Dunson House amenable to any seasonal activities. It was a great stay, and we hope to be back.

The view was beautiful, and overall our stay was good, but the property could use some updates. The biggest issue was the hot water. After two showers, there was no hot water left, so the rest of us had to take cold showers, which was very disappointing. Also, be aware that laundry is not included—you have to pay separately to use the laundry facilities. With a few improvements, especially to the water heater, this place would provide a much better experience.
