Great stay

Perfect spot for 4 adults and 2 kids for a long weekend close to town but it also feels like you are in the valley. The deck is incredible and I wanted to spend the whole time out there. One of the best rentals I have ever stayed in. 10/10 would book again!

Family time

We visited in early/mid June, and had a great time with extended family. The house was very comfortable for our family group. We spent a lot of time out on the deck enjoying the very scenic view. We all enjoyed our stay at this house, and would definitely stay there again.

Excellent house for Durango visit

Our family of 2 parents and 3 adult children really enjoyed our stay in mid-August. The deck was better than the pictures show. It was a really nice view and a great way to start/finish the day. Everyone enjoyed the ping pong and air hockey games downstairs in the evenings. Great location with easy access to everything that we needed. We would love to stay here again.

Had a great time in Durango!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The property was equipped with everything we needed, was well-kept, clean, and comfortable. We spent much of our time out on the huge deck, taking in the beautiful view of the mountains for as far as we could see in any direction. The house was in a very convenient location, just off of Rt. 550, far enough away from town center to feel the expansiveness of the mountains, but close enough to be able to run into town for groceries, shopping, and going out to eat. Highly recommended!!!

Lovely Property

The property was lovely and the night view from the living room was spectacular due to the high windows in the livingroom. The maintenance had problems and I felt I was expected to clean much more than I should have on the last day since we paid a cleaning fee. There was no division from the shower and bedroom and the tub was WAY too high to get into. Getting a hold of a manager was so unbelievably easy and she rates #1 in my book.

Away and yet so close

A short distance away from downtown Durango and yet so close to most activities, food and shopping. 1st, I love Colorado. Always have always will. Durango has really grown to be a close favorite city. 2nd, I use VRBO exclusively and have trusted their services. I've struggled writing a review this time that wouldn't be critical of this rental. Instead the following is a strong recommendation for the owner and property management. 1.) Follow your posted Mountain AC rules before guest arrives and do invest in one or two window AC units. 3.) clean filter in the portable AC with hose before guest arrives 4.) Be aware of temperatures before guests arrive so #'s 1,2 and 3 will be a a peak performance. 5.) Bringing in an non working, dirty appliance even temporarily to use as a substitute is inefficient. 6.) The customer giving chose-able solutions in order to have a new appliance before a week later is unacceptable. 7.) Property management team please keep customer informed all along the process. Other than once they did respond in a timely manner. Cud-dos to the member who shipped a forgotten item to my home. 8.) The Durango Post Office will not deliver mail/packages/letters or anything else to this rental, no matter who you inform ahead of time. Checking the status of the expected delivery will not help. Go to the PO and pick it up there. 9.) For any cooking utensil reported not working get creative or go buy it. Ooops at 1500 character limit.

The trees were in all their glory!! The view from the property was awesome. We each had our own space and it was well appointed. Comfortable beds. Kitchen had everything you needed. My favorite thing was watching the train go by! We went to the ski resort and had a great day riding the ski lift, alpine slide and the coaster. Such a great location. Would love to return

The house was clean and we enjoyed the beautiful views from the living room. The deck was also amazing to sit on and enjoy the view. Beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked. The floor had a couple of uneven areas that made us stumble a couple of times, but we quickly learned to anticipate them. The tub/shower in the master bedroom is quirky and there is a rather large ledge you have to step over to get in and out, which might be difficult and even dangerous for those with knee or hip issues. The check out process is a little picky because they want you to wash a load of towels and put them in the dryer before you check out. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay in this property!

The location was perfect for anyone visiting the summer sights in Durango. Only minutes from downtown attractions and on the road towards Silverton, this house certainly met our needs for our one week stay.
