Could have been better

Perfect for our family get together!

This was exactly what we needed for our yearly family get-together. It's a large home with plenty of room, plenty of bathrooms, and a geat kitchen, we cooked enchiladas for 20! The outside area was family friendly with lots of room and close to McPhee Reservoir. Alek was a great host, very responsive. Hopefully, we can come back next year!

About the host

Hosted by Alek Herrick

Howdy! My name is Alek. I grew up in the four corners and enjoy the outdoors aspect of home the most. My fiancé Melinda and I started up this vacation rental not only to help pay for itself but so that others can enjoy this amazing area! A vacation rental allows us to update and fix things between guests and so we can occasionally enjoy it ourselves. I have traveled extensively and lived in places like New Zealand and Guatemala but every time I come home there is a feeling how unique and diverse this place is! Currently we live in New Mexico where the job opportunities are better for both of us. I am a project engineer for a construction company and Melinda manages a physical therapy department for a hospital. We hope you enjoy your time here at Bandit's Ranch!

Why they chose this property

This property gives you the rural feel with the nearby amenities of civilization. The skyline gas station is convenient for a quick 6-pack and the nearby canyons of the ancients visitor center & museum is a great first stop to get your bearings of the area. The open floorplan is a major benefit of this home. You can be cooking dinner and still interact with everyone in the main area including the game room loft upstairs. The home is at 7000 ft at the top end of Montezuma Valley. The views of the back porch are second to none! 6 acres gives you ample space to walk around the property and large parking area is enough space for a trailer or multiple vehicles.

The name "Bandit's Rach" comes from the cattle/herding dog I adopted from the Navajo Nation the same summer I purchased the home!

What makes this property unique

I purchased this home as a foreclosure in 2013 and have been working on it in some capacity ever since.

Recently I took a year off working to upgrade this home putting nearly $150,0000 back into the property. Among the new upgrades are...
-New roof with added insulation helps keep the home warmer during the winter and cooler during the summer.
-New windows
-Game room and new wood floor upstairs
- A library and reading room.
-New appliances.
-Driveway was dug up and completely re-done.
-Solar system installed on the roof
-EV car charger installed in the garage.

The home was set up to accommodate large groups with a desire to enjoy the great outdoors . There are many areas to hang out and enjoy the views of the country. The back porch has a view of the entire Montezuma Valley and in front you can see the mountains in Utah.

We hope you enjoy our home and are happy to give any suggestions regarding the surrounding area!
