We recently traveled to Colorado to enjoy some time exploring the southern part of the state. We spent a week in Pagosa Springs and stayed at Club Wyndham Pagosa and absolutely loved it.
My husband, James, served in the military years ago and as a veteran there are certain opportunities available to him. We are always so grateful for anything that is offered and this is one that we are super excited about!
Something he learned about this summer is the option to join the Armed Forces Vacation Club. Membership in this club allows him to look for deals at amazing places all over the world.
We love Colorado so he looked on there a month or so ago and discovered we could get a 7 night stay at the Club Wyndham resort in Pagosa Springs for only $402!! And that’s with tax and everything. That comes out to only $57 a night which is an incredible deal — especially post C*v*d when prices started skyrocketing!
The Property
We had never stayed in a Club Wyndham before so we had no idea what to expect but when we arrived, we were THRILLED with what we got!
This place is incredible! The property is huge and there are many types of buildings/rooms so the stay we had isn’t necessarily exactly what we or anyone else would get on a future trip but this is one of the options.
Our building was toward the very back of the property and sat right on Village Lake in the Village Pointe section of the resort. It was a circle drive off the main road and the “front yard” was a nice open space with a grill and picnic table so you could spend time outdoors if you wanted.
The balcony was our favorite spot for the week. It had a table and four chairs so it was very easy to sit outside and just enjoy the beautiful weather, the amazing views, and the most incredible sunsets.
We were even able to enjoy watching the wildlife from the balcony as well.
Each evening the Canadian Geese would work their way over to the section to the right of our building so we got to watch them fly in and swim over from further out. We also saw a momma and two baby deer walking around one evening. So cute! But the highlight was the day we got to watch an eagle soaring all around right in front of us for a bit. It was so beautiful!
The whole resort area was a beautiful area. The lake was an area we enjoyed walking around and taking in the views. There is also an activity center with lots of fun things to do — mini golf, tennis, pool tables, and more! We kept talking about going up to do some of those activities but we were enjoying our little slice of heaven so much that we kind of stayed put on our balcony or in our room if we weren’t out doing something around town.
The Room
And last but certainly not least — the room.
We were in 7511A and it was so nice! It was very spacious. There was a nice size living room with a huge wall of windows and a door leading out to the balcony, a dining room and full kitchen with everything you need (full stove/oven, dishwasher, full fridge) also with a huge wall of windows, a large bedroom with a door leading out to the balcony, and a very spacious bathroom with a full tub and a separate shower. There were also laundry machines in the bathroom so we could get all of our clothes washed easily — and free!
Road Life Magazine Recommends It!
If you’re looking to travel to Pagosa Springs, Colorado, we definitely recommend staying at Club Wyndham Pagosa. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming — they even have a happy hour with free drinks (wine, beer, and pop) and snacks. The place is in a great location with easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, and fun activities. And the scenery and the vibe just can’t be beat.
And if you’re in the military currently or you’re a veteran, don’t forget to check out the Armed Forces Vacation Club to get some great rates!
