Over the past 12 years, we have stayed in 8 different places while visiting Ouray for the 4th of July. The Spangler House was the best overall experience we have had at a Bed & Breakfast in Ouray.

Don't let the modest exterior street fascade of The Spangler House fool you. Once inside, the spacious accommadations sweep back away from the street towards the amphitheater mountains to the west. There is a beautiful wood deck with a nice hot tub on it out back that is easily accessible through the kitchen area.

The innkeepers, Jill and Steve, have done their homework on what people want when they stay at a Bed & Breakfast. They help you to feel that their home is your home during your stay by going out of their way to anticipate and accomodate your needs.

We stayed at the Spangler House for 5 nights and each morning there was a new and exciting culinary experience awaiting us. The breakfasts were so hearty that we didn't even get hungry until well into the afternoon. And in the afternoon, delicious snacks were always available to ensure we didn't have a hunger pain before dinner.

This Bed & Breakfast is immaculately maintained. It's clean lines and contemporary style make you feel comfortable. And speaking of comfortable, plush bathrobes awaited us after a relaxing soak in the hot tub. There were also different towels for showers, hot tubbing, and hot springs pool use as well.

All in all, we really enjoyed our stay with Jill and Steve at The Spangler House and look forward to staying with them again in the future.
