What Our Guests Say
“This was our second time to have a family gathering at Island Acres. The cabins are clean and well stocked with clear directions on where to find items. So close to Gunnison in case you forget something but yet far enough away that you don’t feel like you’re in a city. Close to Blue Mesa Lake. Plenty of outdoor seating, picnic tables and friendly, helpful managers. Also I had clear communication about check in and check out. We will definitely make a return visit.“
“Definitely the best place to stay in Gunnison! Towels and bed linens are so soft and smell good, units are always cozy and inviting, and have everything you need for your stay! Property is peaceful and well maintained, wood swings are the best for a relaxing moment… I have been using this resort since 2019, dont want to stay anywhere else! Owners and staff are friendly, I love everything about the resort 🙂“
“Cabins have been updated and look great! Pam and her husband are very accommodating to our needs when reserving the cabins. The cabins have everything you need. You don’t need to take bedding, towels, etc. Kitchen utensils, pots, pans, dishes, etc. are all supplied. The best place to stay in Gunnison is our opinion!“
“We first stayed at Island Acres 11 years ago on our first trip to the area. Perfect location for day trips to Crested Butte and Black Canyon as well as local Gunnison attractions like Hartmann Rocks and the Gunnison River. We just made our fourth visit to the area and Island Acres. Clean. Comfortable. Affordable. Perfect.“
