Plan to include a stay at Secret Garden when you're visiting the western slope. The intimate, beautifully-appointed inn is easy to locate on a quiet side street in Ouray. Park your car and walk to shops and restaurants. Sara Sharpe, the owner, is most gracious and is also a fabulous cook! more

Sarah was a wonderful host. We called at the last moment and Sarah was very accommodating of our last minute plans. The best bonus of them all was the Tempurpedic bed.
