We really liked the location of this property. The room was spacious and spotless and the property manager was available for a quick question after hours.
We really enjoyed having the bicycles available at no charge to ride to dinner and back as well. Lovely stay!
A beautiful property. New, modern, cozy in a central location.
The room has a generous layout with a mini kitchenette. Very lovely property.
We will definitely return.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Great little Euro type lodging. Right on the banks of the river, easy walking to town, river walk, hot springs, modern fire pit, great patio, even bikes to borrow!! Very clean,well appointed, comfortable bedding. Independent check in/out. Staff availability by phone and text. We loved it. Next visit to Pagosa is a no brainer.
These modern cabins are so spacious and comfortable! There’s a little kitchenette and small dining table. Everything you need! The grounds have picnic tables , bbq and overlook the river.
Pagosa Springs is a great town and The Drift was an amazing place to rest for 2 days. The individual units surround a courtyard with shaded picnic tables, a bbq grill, a firepit and bikes to ride along the nearby riverwalk. The hot springs are nearby and the you are in walking distance of shops and restaurant's. The room is well equipped and very comfortable.
We had a great stay! The location is perfect—just steps from the hot springs and a short walk to the river walk. The space was spacious, spotless, and had everything we could possibly need. Super easy to access, with a clean, modern vibe throughout.
The shared amenities were a huge bonus—grill, fire pit, and outdoor seating outside each “cabin” made it feel like a little community. Perfect for families and people traveling with dogs. We’d absolutely stay here again!
Definitely loved this place. Very nice, spacious, modern rooms. Right by the river and walkable to shopping and dining. Will stay here again and recommend to all.
What an amazing concept! A beautiful, private, clean & comfy cabin with self entry and an awesome outdoor common area! We loved our stay at The Drift!!!
