About this property

Historic house on working cattle ranch a short distance from Durango, CO.

The house is situated on a 320 acre cattle ranch. It was built in the early 1900's with the original part of the house built with adobe. The interior has been updated using repurposed barnwood and rusty tin from a local barn. The living area is a spacious open floorplan with a kitchen that opens to a diningroom, livingroom and sunroom. The best room in the house is the sunroom which has large picture windows on all of the walls that overlook the ranch. The main bedroom has a king sized bed. The second bedroom is in the original small adobe room and has a full bed. The 3rd bed is a hide-a-bed in the livingroom. If additional sleeping arrangements are needed, we can provide an air mattress. The home features beautiful views, a big mature yard that is secluded and has a locked entrance gate. There is an outdoor patio as well as a pergola in the yard. The house is within 30 to 45 minutes of Durango, Pagosa Springs, 2 ski resorts, biking, hiking, hunting and fishing. There are also several native american cultural sites including Mesa Verde, Chimney Rock, Aztec Ruins, and Chaco Canyon. National Forest is 5 miles north of the ranch. If you are looking for a Southern Colorado experience this is the place.

Please note that we do have a security camera installed on the outside of the house. It captures the walkway to the house and the parking area. The purpose of the camera is to make sure that people who come to the property are actually our expected guests. There are no other cameras onsite.

Quiet and Relaxing Getaway
The property was beautiful, quiet, and easy to find. It’s within an hour of Durango and Pagosa Springs so perfect location. The home was spacious, had lots of character and charm, and was well maintained. Communication was perfect, clear, and timely. Definitely plan to come back!

Cozy comfortable rustic ranch house
A place we had previously stayed near Ignacio was unavailable, and we are sure glad we got a chance to stay at this darling cozy property. We were worried about being warm enough in Colorado in the snow in January, but were amazed at the warmth generated by the space and wall heaters. We loved the rustic decor and design of this historic cottage and kept finding more cool touches during our stay, from sliding barn doors to barn wood walls, wooden countertops including a bar with inlaid bits of turquoise and a corrugated metal shower stall, a whiskey barrel, and barn and country prints. The ranch was very comfortable for our stay from the king size main bedroom bed to the sun porch with huge leather chairs and footstools to watch the sunrise and gaze at the cows, and a fully stocked kitchen with everything we needed from supplies to appliances, even a crock pot and high end washer, dryer, and dishwasher. We enjoyed being close enough to Durango to visit with relatives, but far enough away to relax in comfort, peace, and quiet with views. We took advantage of some of Ignacio’s favorite places, including the wonderful Southern Ute cultural center and museum, trading post, and Farmers Fresh grocery store, as well as day trips to Wolf Creek ski resort and Pagosa Springs. Heather was responsive to our questions and requests. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, hated leaving, and hope to visit The Ranch again, maybe next time in the summer to take advantage of other local sights.

Always a Perfect Stay
We really enjoy our time at this location. The kitchen has everything you need, the beds are comfy and shower refreshing. Laundry facilities are new and clean. The front sunroom is a great spot to enjoy a hot drink and take in the view

Really enjoyed our stay!
Heather's home was a lovely rental. We were about 30 minutes from Durango. We spent our days in Durango and nights at the rental. All photos and descriptions were accurate. We enjoyed having the use of her kitchen to prepare meals. Sleeping accommodations were clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend her home!
