Such a beautiful home with plenty of space inside and out! The kitchen was fully equipped with all that was needed, and the cabin was comfortable and creatively decorated. Even spent some time swinging in the hammock and visiting the beautiful chicken coop! The host was responsive and kind. Would absolutely return!

Very nice, well-appointed, clean property in a great location just 2 minutes from downtown Durango. Property owners/managers were accessible and responsive. One note to future guests is that the main bedroom (with the King bed) is a loft and therefore not entirely private. The en suite bathroom to the lofted main bedroom is also open to the communal areas on the 1st and 2nd floors by way of the bathroom walls not going all the way to the ceiling. The bathroom sounds, therefore, may travel over the walls and into the communal areas. Finally, there is a large, uncovered window in the main bathroom that provides direct views into the master shower from the neighboring property. I would highly recommend the owbers install some sort of retractable shade as the natural light is great most of the time, but a bit unnerving while trying to shower at night.

Quite possibly the best stay we have ever experienced via Vrbo. The owners and property manager were amazing, very hospitable, gave some great advice on things to see and do in the area. The cabin is beautiful- pictures do it no justice at all! We will definitely be returning in the future if this property is still available.

Annual Family Getaway
It is always a challenge to find a house to accommodate four generations for our annual get together. This house was perfect! Eric was very easy to communicate with both prior to our arrival and during our stay. He even let us use his children’s sleigh for our little people to ride down the hill by the house. The house was very clean and provided everything we needed for our stay. Five stars across the board. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Amazing mountain vacation home!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. The location was convenient to town but it still felt like a true mountain vacation. The house is stunning and had everything we needed and more. The view from the deck is gorgeous and it was so fun to see the trains go by. Everyone in our family from Grandpa down to our littlest one loved every minute we spent here and along with our Polar Express train ride, made this Thanksgiving our most memorable and magical ever! The owner was very welcoming and easy to communicate with, and he went above and beyond to help us out.

An Incredible Find in Durango
This home is Absolutely perfect for a large group. Was out in Durango for my son’s wedding. Easily slept 10 at this house. Beds were incredibly comfy. House had so much charm. Close to downtown Durango but far enough away to have great views and quiet. The host was outstanding. Just a friendly and available guy. Highly recommend renting this house in Durango. You will be happy you did.
