This was a great location to go to Durango or Mesa Verde! The space was big enough for six adults to comfortably hang out and visit. The kitchen was well stocked, the bathrooms clean and the beds comfortable. We had a snag in our stay but Ron was prompt in getting back to us and fixing the problem. We had a great time! Thanks.

Home was an excellent location for our backpacking trips in Durango, Silverton and Pagosa Springs. Beautiful views of the mountains behind the home. Was nice being a few miles out of downtown Durango and the entire area was awesome!!!!! We really enjoyed our stay and plan on returning to the area again in the future. It’s a beautiful place to visit and thank you for your hospitality!!!!!!

Enjoyable week!

We had a great time at the Mountain Majesty. It was roomy enough for our whole family and had a spectacular view of the mountains! The large kitchen allowed for plenty of cooking visiting and the living room and family room provided space to sit enjoy each other. While in the area, we had a great time at the Durango-Silverton Train Ride, The Bar D Chuckwagon outdoor dinner theater, Mesa Verde, and the mountains. Great place to visit!

When we first saw the house I thought there’s no way it’s as big as it says in the description. I was so wrong!! My 3 grown children their spouses and my 4 grand children all fit comfortably. We had an amazing Christmas in this beautiful home!!

Relaxing

Very comfortable. Great location. Ron was very responsive and took care of needed supplies quickly. Only suggestions would be to cut the weeds and thistles in front of the house. And a grill without gas is not an amenity. Overall great place. Very enjoyable!

Lots of space, nice house, great view

Enjoyed our stay, house got very cold, thermostat was set to Celsius and seemed to take hours to warm up each morning but it did work. Nice house, comfortable furniture, lots of space for us. But we ran out of toilet paper, towels were in the dryer when we arrived and there weren’t enough of them. Wasn’t the most impressive trip but we would stay here again because of the space and I would just verify towels and toilet paper on the first day and communicate with manager right away before running out.

Great place to stay!

We will definitely book this home again in the future! With just a short distance from Durango, you get the privacy and comfort of staying next to mountains with an incredible view! The home was clean and it has everything you need to be comfortable, from cleaning products to kitchen silverware. The master bedroom is very nice with a great view. The other 4 rooms are comfortable and close to the kitchen for easy access to a quick snack and to spend time in the spacious living room. The grill worked perfectly. The propane tank was empty but quickly realized there was a full spare tank in the garage. Clean interiors and exteriors. Definitely recommending this home to our friends.

Unacceptable

Appeared abandoned. Outdated. Not properly maintained. Misled. When we booked, it included a fire pit and hot tub. Both had been removed. No TV in main living area. Property was overgrown. Deck was falling apart. Extremely disappointed.

The upstairs living quarters could get toasty during the day, even with all the shades pulled. It was very clean, which is always appreciated and the kitchen was well stocked with pans, strainers, gadgets and everything we needed, including 2 coffee pots. We saw a bear from the back deck and a coyote out by the cars! Mattresses were comfy.

Amazing views Perfect location

Don't stay in Durango - stay in the mountains where there is Elk, deer, bobcats, and cool temperatures. The home is fun - great for gatherings. Close to Mesa Verde and Durango. Leave the city and come to the quiet setting and listen to birds wake you in the morning. The owner is also great to work with - good response time and accurate. Willing to make things good when needed.

Lovely spacious home, top notch host

Lots of space for our family reunion of 9. Complete kitchen and an amazing access to supplies. Excellent in so many ways, beautiful view and deck to hang out on..The reason for a 4 star: I was under the impression that the master bedroom was on the first floor. It was but as a split living there were about 5 steps up the living area and kitchen. My handicapped husband couldn’t eat with the family. Also there was no place for the kids to play outside. There was plenty of space but the yard was left to go natural so grass and weeds were too tall.Location was great if you plan to go to Mesa Verde, which we did twice. Otherwise, a little far from town for activities for young kids.The host is excellent. Very accommodating and gracious. Quick to respond to messages. Unfortunately my husband had a lot of health issues but Ron was understanding and helpful. I would recommend this rental.

Spacious with awesome views

The host was very easy to communicate with and worked with my group to allow us the option of checking in an hour early, if needed. When we arrived, the house was very spacious with lots of room to accommodate our party of 9, and the views were awesome. We were there to spend a day on the Durango Silverton Narrow Gauge steam train and the Mountain Majesty was the perfect place to stay.
