These modern cabins are super nice, and are right downtown within walking distance of the river, a great local cofee shop, and all of the shops and restaurants along with the hot springs. There is a nice covered patio at the property as well as a gas fire pit with chairs in the courtyard between the cabins. Loved our stay here and would definitely stay again.

It was an overnight stay but we’ll definitely come back for a longer stay! The location is perfect; near downtown and walking trail alongside the river and near the natural hot springs! The unit is beautiful and clean and just right amenities (kitchenette, large shower, spacious, and comfy bed! The only addition I would recommend is 2 comfy chairs on wheels to roll where needed!

The Drift is a very unique property, with stand-alone individual units, like having your own bungalow. They are very new, clean and modern. Very comfortable and convenient to downtown Pagosa Springs and beyond. Easy access to the trail along the river as well. Highly recommended!

Very happy with our stay. Close to restaurants and hot springs. Small cottage concept was fantastic. Lots of outdoor tables and seating. Loved the fire pit.

I especially liked the stand-alone units. It was very roomy, very clean and modern. The unit appears as it is shown in the pictures. It was close to the walking trail along the river and a few restaurants. There is no one onsite, but a entry code is provided at 12 noon on the day of check-in, along with a number if any issues. We would definitely stay here again.

We rode out bikes to Pagosa Springs for hot springs and riding the million dollar hwh. The drift was awesome. New, clean. Code to get in was sent ontime. Very comfortable. Outside is a gas firepit and they provide bicycles. Price was reasonable. There are bunk beds also for kids. This gets a 10 star review. Walking distance to hot springs. Highly recomended.

The Drift was a rare hotel find. It was better than the pictures could have described. The place is kept up very well like its brand new. The grounds are clean and nicely landscaped. We had a few separate rooms or units and the picnic area was the perfect place for the family to sit together and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We stayed for the 4th of July, and it was like the fire pit area was setup just for that. Everyone staying there had a perfect view of the fireworks. We loved the units, they were fully stocked with everything we needed and the we loved the design touches. Having the bikes available was a great touch as well with the river bike path right next to the hotel. Of all the places to stay that we saw while in Pagosa Springs, we were lucky enough to have picked this place - it was just the best. We would love to go back!

The Drift is perfectly located in the middle of town and you are close to restaurants and shopping.
The property is new and it is awesome. You have your own apartment and the facility is clean and well maintained.
You have a grill you can cook on and an outdoor fire pit.
You also have bicycles on the property you can use.
I highly recommend The Drift and I will be staying there in November.

I really enjoy these individual unit design for our stays. The Drift were amongst the nicest we’ve stayed at in our travels.
The street construction seems to be going on everywhere in Colorado but when that is complete The Drift will be an A destination.

Great place. Very new. A bit strange to not have any staff on site. It’s more like a VRBO. Location is great right by the river. Walking distance from the hot springs.

Our stay was amazing!!! The location couldn’t be more perfect, it’s right in downtown and very close to the thermal springs (both the Pagosa Resort and the Hippy dippy). The modern cabin is super clean, brand new, the beds are very comfortable, nice amenities, soft towels and just the right size for a nice family getaway. We loved our stay and we will definitely want to come back and stay at the Drift again!

The Drift is a well thought out setup. The room was perfect. We had access to a fire pit and a lovely river walk trail right next door. It would be a perfect place to stay in Pagosa Springs for several days.

I never write reviews,however, this will be an exception...
Our main reason for this trip was for the pagosa hot springs resort(which was a complete disappointment).The Drift was walking distance from the location so we picked this place to stay for the night.
Lets just say, the highlight of the trip was the Drift.
We had some minor issues online due to booking through hotels.com but the issues were easily resolved in a timely manner. I was very surprised.
Our experience with the Pagosa hot springs resort was very disappointed and waste of money. The professional photos were nothing like what we saw in person. We were worried that we were going to come across the same issue with the Drift but it was the best stay we've experienced by far.
You can tell that they built these cute cabin with comfort. Very comfortable and love the modern look and feel of the cabins.
Definitely worth the stay. I wished there was more cabins like this other places as well. If we were to come back to Pagosa, we will come back here again.

We truly enjoyed staying at The Drift and highly recommend it. I love how perfectly neat and clean everything is at this property. We used the grill outside for a wonderful outdoor meal and relaxed by the fire at night. We enjoyed this place so much we came back through to visit again. Great accommodations, beautiful view and you can’t beat the access to the river and walking trials. Simply amazing!
