Lake Purgatory Hot Tub Pool Table Awesome Lake Views Pet Friendly Great Location

The city of Durango and Purgatory Mountain Resort in southwest Colorado is an area devoted to an active outdoor lifestyle. Nestled in the San Juan National Forest, this western town is where the high desert meets the high alpine.

Blackjack Lodge sits atop sloping cliffs overlooking Lake Purgatory, with sweeping views of the Hermosa Cliffs, Spud, Engineer and Needles Mountains from its large picture windows. Surrounded by groves of pine and aspen trees, it affords complete privacy, though conveniently located just one mile south of Durango Mountain Resort.

The large, open-plan family room has stunning views, a massive sandstone propane fireplace and state-of-the-art entertainment complete with Sony 51' Surround Sound TV, DVD/CD, VCR and Stereo. A second family room (the 'Bear Den') with 2-Twin Trundle Bed, TV, DVD, a regulation-size billiard table and also a ping-pong table is located in the basement, adjacent to the fourth bedroom which is outfitted with two sets of bunk beds and the location makes it an ideal room for the kids. All king and queen beds have modal or bamboo linens and goose down comforters to ensure a cozy and comfortable night's rest!

A wonderful bonus after a day of outdoor activities is the Hot Springs Spa 6 person hot tub on the covered deck. Luxuriate in its soothing warmth while taking in the stunning lake and mountain views and cool, clean mountain air. At night, the stars seem almost touchable.

Our home is that wonderful combination of rusticity and luxury. The bedrooms are comfortable and private, and the family areas are well appointed with fine leather couches. Ceiling fans in every room and radiant-heated floors make it comfortable throughout the year. Our location offers you a choice between the dozens of activities available in the area, or complete seclusion - whichever kind of vacation you seek.

Incredible views. The house is spacious and well suited to large groups. Nice to have the hot tub, pool table and ping pong table for entertainment without leaving the house. We were fortunate to have good weather but the road up to the house could definitely be a challenge in inclement weather(as is well pointed out in the property’s description)

Beautiful home. Very private and peaceful! We really enjoyed our stay and will be staying here again! Plenty of room, fully stocked. Owners thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable. Best part was sitting on the large back deck in the early morning hours, drinking hot tea and watching the humming birds.

Welcoming home with beautiful views of the lake, hot tub was great. Although there is access to the lake not all of our party could enjoy because it was a steep hike down. We all enjoyed the game room and there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Thank you for sharing your home.

Needs some deep cleaning & updated description.

First off, the property has a stunning view and location. However, beds don't match description. We planned on two queen beds for our party, however, they were full size beds. Also, it is NOT an 11 min walk to Purgatory and you must have 4WD in winter, which is not mentioned in description.This home did not feel clean. One of the beds (upstairs full) did not smell like the blankets were clean. The floor of that room also had debris and had not been vacuumed. All pillows were mismatched, old and stained. Same w/bathroom rugs. There were very large cobwebs that no one cleaned up in the living room w/dead spider. There were little kid hand prints on the large window, kitchen cabinets dirty. The hot tub smelled like mildew, unsure if chemicals had been added prior to our stay, or if this is from the cover.Overall, we were very disappointed and uncomfortable with the cleanliness. We all also felt this home is in much need of updating and deep cleaning. Owner was receptive to notification of these issues.

Magnificent View

Place is in a beautiful spot to see the wonderful snow. Overlooking the mountains is spectacular. Lots of big bay windows to see everything. House was just the spot for our family. It is very close to the resort for skiing. There is a trailhead not for too. It is right in the middle between Durango and Silverton. I advise you if the roads permit to make a trip to Silverton and see the abundance of snow in the passes.

This home is beautiful. We stayed for about a week and we had everything we needed to feel at home. It is a 30 minute drive into town so I suggest stopping in town prior to getting to the home to get any food or necessities. The views from this home are breath taking.

Pluses and Minuses

On the up side, the living room space is cozy and accommodates a large group. The lake view is pretty and the hummingbirds were fun to feed and watch. The hot tub is also nice and big. On the down side, the house is very dated, especially the kitchen and carpet, which we didn't want to walk on in bare feet or socks. The overall house cleanliness could use attention, as in a deep clean for dust and dirt. The basics, like the bedding and towels seemed clean, but we had to hunt around to find enough towels in the basement laundry room. There were a lot of bugs, including tiny gnats on the flat surfaces, like counters and tables and large ants roaming about. The rain might have brought in the big ants which I think are normally on trees, but not fun to see inside. There are also home maintenance issues with items broken or not working very well. I mentioned the things we didn't enjoy to the property manager after we left, but didn't hear back from him. I think this house is expensive for the shape its in and because it was not particularly clean, which I do expect when I rent, especially at this price point. Finally, if you have small kids, are older or not in good health/shape, the walk to and from the lake might be difficult. The back of the property drops off. There is a path with some make-shift barriers, but its extremely steep. This was a non-issue for our family, but could be for others.

Perfect property for 2 family mountain vacation!

This property had the most amazing view! Coffee on the deck in the morning over looking the mountains & lake was delightful. We stayed with our BFF’s family at this home. 5 teen boys who loved the downstairs to play pool & ping pong and big open upstairs to play games after long days outside mountain biking at Purgatory (5 min away), rafting in Durango and hiking also close by! This property had everything we needed! Extra bedding, towels, full kitchen and all the little extras like detergent, tin foil, etc….. the stuff you forget you’ll need when at the grocery store! The Nugget Bar across the highway looks like a dive, but it’s got great drinks & food truck food is great too! Pizza down the road at Old School house and country store for necessities. We loved the privacy of this home and would stay here again!

almost perfect!

Our granddaughter was married at the Black Diamond Ranch, so the location was perfect. The house is very livable but a little dated-altho the bidet toilet was amazing! It had an a good vibe and accommodated our family 10-ages 83-9-very comfortably. We didn't understand that our SUPs weren't allowed-interpreting the rules that anyone not staying in a house on the lake were not permitted use of the lake. Anyway, the man who patrols the lake was very informative and polite. We had some very "zen" time in the canoe.

A magical getaway ✨

We vacationed over the Christmas break with our extended family… grandparents, parents, and children. This house had the perfect setup for our family. The adults stayed in the upper bedrooms, and the kiddos had more than enough space and activities (pool table, ping pong table, tv) in the basement area to keep them occupied. The living area is spacious, as is the dining table, and easily accommodated our large group. We were all pleasantly surprised by the stocked kitchen, plenty of pots, pans, glasses, spices, paper goods, etc., and the heated flooring made it especially cozy on cold mornings. After a long day of skiing, the hot tub was a welcomed sanctuary to relax and soothe our tired bodies and was a big hit with the little people as well. The view is spectacular from the covered porch and also inside where there are plenty of large windows to soak it all in. The only somewhat problem we encountered, which was our own doing, was not having AWD on one of our three vehicles. The signs stating “AWD or chains needed” is not simply a suggestion. However, after adorning our tires with said chains, we were good to go. I can’t say enough about the beauty and tranquility of this space, and the owner was great as well. He provided an abundance of information about the property and was very responsive to inquiries. We were all sad to leave but vowed to return during the summer to enjoy it again and experience all it has to offer in a different season.
