Pagosa Springs is absolutely beautiful and a wonderful place to live

Known for its amazing hot springs, abundant sunshine and small town feel, Pagosa Springs offers plenty of opportunities to soak up the scenery and enliven your spirit.

In the summer, biking rafting, kayaking, and lazy floating down the San Juan River are common activities for locals and visitors. In the winter, Wolf Creek Ski Area (just a short drive outside of town) boasts the most snow in Colorado, averaging 450 inches of snowfall annually.
