About this property
Heart of Downtown Durango - Pet Friendly Condo with Views - AC
City of Durango Permit - 2017-264
Our 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom condo (La Plata Loft) is all about it's exceptional location as it is located in heart of Durango's historic tourist district. The condo is just 2 blocks from the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad Depot and a seemingly endless supply of restaurants, shops and galleries on Main Avenue
The condo was furnished with high end furnishings and the pull out sofa is from American Leather Sleeper, which is the most comfortable pull out sofa on the market. Additional amenities include as fast WIFI, in unit washer/dryer, fully stocked kitchen, 2 small decks and one covered assigned parking space. Both bedrooms are on the second level of the condo - so if you prefer no or very few stairs, this condo is not a good option.
Bed Configuration: Master Bedroom - King with TV and Ensuite Bath (2nd Floor) 2nd Bedroom - 2 Twin Beds (2nd Floor) Main Living Space - King Pull Out Sofa (Main Floor)
The front door to the condo is on the 2nd level so stairs are required from the the street entrance.
This condo is pet friendly! We allow a maximum of 2 dogs max and the pet fee is $40/day (for a max $250 per stay).
Stay with us and we offer DISCOUNTS on both summer (white water rafting, horseback riding etc.) and winter (ski/snowboard rentals, sleigh rides, snowmobile tours etc.) activities.

We loved the area of the condo. It was quiet ,for the most part. Close to everything that we wanted to do. We had multiple vehicles, so being aboe to park cliae by was nice. We were quite comfortable with all that was offered in the condo. It felt safe and well lit. We would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.
This is a very clean and spacious townhome located in the heart of it all. It is great for a couple or small family. Views of mountains and city. Walking distance to everything you need. We would have no problem staying here again in the future.
The condo was perfect for us. We were able to walk to Durango Steam Train, Mesa Verde Tour office, and all over Downtown. The Condo was clean, provided starter kits for kitchen and bathrooms and a great balcony for people watching. Will stay there again on our next trip!
Condo was updated very smartly. We also loved this condo’s location with access to the Riverwalk and just around the corner from beautiful third Street and all the original beautiful paintings as well.

Very clean, new looking in downtown area. We walked to shopping and dining. Plenty of room for 4 adults.
Very convenient location. Clean. Quiet considering proximity to Main St. Would benefit from more "hang up" space for clothing and some relatively inexpensive single use items (salt, pepper, sugar packets).
We very much enjoyed our stay! Great to walk everywhere to shop and eat. Felt safe although there were some homeless people. Parking spot is tight but could still park our Ford 250 short bed truck. Condo had everything, nice appliances, except coffee pot needs replacing. Also, needed more paper towels and had to buy tissues and hand soap. Would stay again!

This was our second visit at this condo and the location is perfect! We were walking distance from Main St., the Animas River, coffee shops and the grocery coop! The condo is well maintained and has a balcony where you can enjoy a meal or your morning coffee!This is the perfect location for your stay in Durango!
It was as expected. A little expensive but a large unit with plenty of space, clean and right in the middle of restaurants with surrounding cute shops. None of which we could visit due to the time constraints.
Beautiful house in a perfect location. Just a short block and a half walk away from Main St. The neighborhood is quiet and the locals are very friendly. We saw deer our daily walks with the dogs. Check in was a bit confusing as there is a door into the entrance, which the code was not listed in chek in. I did send a text and got a quick text back with the info. Front door to the house was unlocked upon our arrival so it felt a little nervous walking in. Check out with the code was a bit difficult, and I'm not sure if I did it right. Overall great place and great host! Love tgat it is a pet friendly place.

Excellent! Best location for historic downtown Durango!!! 30 minute drive to Purgatory, 45 minute drive Wolfcreek, 2 hour drive to Telluride and 50 minute drive to Silverton. This was our 3rd time staying here and have booked our 2025 ski vacation at this property. It really feels like home away from home.

Easy to walk downtown. The only negative is for the person(s) sleeping in the smaller upstairs bedroom. It is over College Ave which can be noisy. The master bedroom was beautiful and quiet. Ear plugs solved our "issue".

Our stay was great! The condo was easy to access and very clean! We enjoyed the location as it was central to most of Durango and also only 30 minutes to Purgatory. We drove to dinner and coffee (Joe's is amazing), but we also walked a few times. The rooms/beds were wonderful! The sofa in living room is a King. We loved the amenity boxes VRC provided - we didn't buy anything but food! Property was as described and had great customer service!Parking spot is tight but that was the ONLY downside!

Reviewer Comments:
Property was clean and comfortable. Parking is not great, space is extremely narrow and there was no snow/ice removal in alley/parking area making it slippery and dangerous after snowfall. Cannot use the living room tv and fireplace at the same time as the fireplace causes the tv to overheat and turn off. Kitchen faucet needs to be replaced.
We stayed here for two nights. The upside of the property is that it’s easy walking distance from downtown. The property was also kept clean.
There are numerous negatives:
-parking space is awful—cannot even get your stuff out of the car it’s so tight.
-The unit is pretty worn down—worn out bed, both blinds in the primary bedroom are broken, kitchen sink faucet was broken.
-it is in a VERY noisy location
With all of these downsides, we just didn’t feel very comfortable there and certainly did not feel like there was value in the cost of renting. We would look elsewhere for our next Durango visit.
Property was in a great location and the listing was accurate. Several items at the property were broken, the AC did not work but was repaired by the owner promptly after being notified. The shades over the sliding glass door in the kitchen did not work. The pull out bed in the guest bedroom had a missing leg that made it wobble while sleeping on it. Also the reserved parking space was too small to fit a F-150 sized truck. All these items really didnt amount to too much inconvenience hence the four star rating. Once fixed this is a five star property.
Very nicely decorated and clean condo in a convenient location. It is very close to the Historic Downtown so close to the train station, restaurants/bars, and shops. The management company was quickly responsive to our questions.
But two points that are not clear on the website: 1) the on-site parking can't hold anything bigger than a Tundra pickup truck. And there is no way to overlap. There is free street parking nearby, but on the weekend, that gets full. 2) the website does say in small print that the condo apartment is on the second floor (with no elevator). But the bedrooms are up another long flight of stairs.
These 2 issues caused us some difficulty, so I'll give them 4 stars instead of 5.

Overall we enjoyed this Rental. A good amount of space for our family of 5. Great location, very easy to walk to restaurants and shops. A couple of things to be aware of. The A/C does not work very well in upstairs space, it did get up to 80 degrees in the afternoon and evening. Downstairs space was nice and cool. The smaller bedroom contains 1 twin bed and 1 twin size chair pullout. Works great for kids but the chair pullout not ideal for an adult. Unit was nice and clean. Host provided good selection of games and TV's are set up for you to use your own streaming services.

Everything was great and as-described, only one minor issue was the A/C wasn't keeping the bedrooms cool enough for our liking upstairs. The high temps reached 90 degrees outside during our stay and A/C couldn't keep up with the challenge in the upstairs rooms. Fans were provided which helped and it ended up being a minor inconvenience. I wouldn't expect this to be a problem except during the hottest days in Durango. Also, don't expect any spices in the kitchen, not even salt and pepper. But coffee was provided and appreciated. Overall this was a wonderful place for our family of four to enjoy downtown Durango for a week.
