We are on three and a half acres of Ol' fashion ambiance of shaded lawns, just a half-mile west of Gunnison, located on the original Highway 50, between the twin 1928 bridges, in a serene neighborhood, away from commercial areas.

We have 22 log-sided cabin-ettes, 16 with full kitchens. Most of our refrigerators have freezing compartments for your many fresh-caught fish. Our cabin-ettes have a cabin-feel on the inside and are in multi-unit structures. Each is decorated in its own style. Island Acres features clean and newly updated kitchenettes; we maintained the vintage features, charm and Ol' fashion ambiance. FREE WI-FI (high speed internet).
