Great, privately located house with million dollar views! We absolutely loved the large attached deck with what must be the largest hot tub on the market. A fantastic place to socialize and eat while enjoying the outdoors and fantastic views. We could have spent all day out there. But the house is just as nice. The two living areas (upstairs and down) make it great for a large group to spread out. The kitchen is well stocked and had what seemed like new appliances. The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms all look recently updated. There is a/c in every room so it's a perfect house for the summer. It is only a 7 minute drive into Durango. So while you felt you were in a remote location, everything Durango offered is right at your finger tips. And if you need something to keep the kids entertained (or adults who can't relax), the garage is filled with games to keep anyone busy for hours. It is a very comfortable house that is well maintained and decorated. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend it to others.

This is such a wonderful property and our family of six thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We started and ended each day on the outside deck and appreciated the expansive view of the valley and surrounding area. Most notably, the nighttime sky lights up and the property is remote enough to offer excellent conditions for stargazing. Robert is very responsive, and the home was well equipped for our stay. He provides all the necessary items to ensure a hassle-free experience. There was plenty of room for our family and we enjoyed the game room, hot tub and outside fire pit. We appreciate the attention to detail and highly recommend this property. It is perfectly situated and allows easy access to downtown Durango and the surrounding area.

We had a wonderful time with our two families (each with two adults and two kids). Communication leading up to our stay and during our stay was prompt and instructions were clear. The property has stunning views and we chose to spend most of our nights cooking/grilling and eating on the porch. The kids loved the “garage arcade” with ping pong, axe throwing and basketball. There was plenty of space for both of our families! The commute to town was short and gave us access to so many local attractions. We would love to stay here again!

What an amazing, picturesque home! The views could not have been better, and the home had everything we could have wanted or needed. It was close enough to downtown but away from the crowds in a serene setting. We loved hearing the train each day and enjoyed the large deck for peaceful evenings.

Perfect Colorado Getaway

Our week stay at this property was perfect! The communication with the property manager/owner was always great. Wonderful views from all parts of the house, great elevated porch with hot tub and fire table. A plus was the provided supplies like garbage bags, paper towels, spices, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toilet paper and laundry supplies. This made our grocery trips quite a bit easier. Located on a very private, quiet street, I think we saw 1 person during our stay. Close to downtown Durango, and Mesa Verde National Park and a couple hours from Telluride and Ouray but the drive is so beautiful you will enjoy every second. Nice walking paths on the Animas river. I can’t think of anything negative about this property.

Outstanding property & owner

Outstanding, complete, and timely communication. Very clean. Everything just as pictured. Very nicely maintained. Had one maintenance issue to address (not anything that could be predicted) and the owner could not have addressed this any more quickly - just handled it in superb fashion. Excellent location just north of town but close enough to town so that it's really convenient. The only potential issue for anyone visiting would be that if there is winter weather is very inclement during the stay, the long, relatively steep gravel road/driveway might be intimidating to some renters. Overall 5 stars out of 5.
