Amazing Views

We loved this house! There was plenty of room to spread out both inside and out and it had all the comforts of home. The hands down crowd favorite was the hot tub on the back deck overlooking the mountains, absolutely stunning views.

Gorgeous house with the most amazing views

We enjoyed every single minute of our time at this amazing Colorado home. The great room is stunning and the kitchen is super practical and provides lots of things to cook a feast. The view from the kitchen sink alone actually makes me WANT to do dishes...I never complained about it one bit. The hot tub sits right on the deck overlooking the best views Durango has to offer. The home is up a paved road that veers off all by itself so provides exclusive privacy! The owner is super helpful and very accommodating. Not sure when or if we will return to Durango; but if we do we already know where we will want to stay!

Fabulous view!

The view was fantastic, the kitchen was well stocked with the exception of a flyswatter, which we badly needed for flies since we arrived with the front door wide open, the lighting in the dining room was very dim so difficult when playing games, the beds were very comfortable, the toilet in the master was the lowest I'd ever seen, the hot tub was clean, but unfortunately, my husband had to clean the filthy barbecue grill before we could grill burgers, parking was tricky for multiple cars especially when guests had to leave in the dark, and the hanging deer in the kids room was much larger than it appeared in the photos, and in my opinion, not really appropriate for a young kids room. Overall our stay was great and I would definitely recommend this house! We could not get enough of that view.

Beautiful mountain location.

This house is gorgeous inside and out. It accommodated the eight of us with no problems. The kitchen was fully outfitted with all the things we needed. The deck wraps around and gives a spectacular view of the mountains to the east. The newly installed central A/C made things very comfortable. The biggest complaint was the hot tub was inoperable during most of our stay, but the part came in and the repair was completed on our last day. We were surprised there was not a VCR or Blu-ray player for the TV. Finally, we noticed only one water appliance/shower can be used at one time or else the water pressure goes low. We would rent again if we ever came back to the area. Lots to see and do in and around Durango!

Great House and Property...just lots of dog hair!

The house and property has amazing views! Overall we were satisfied with the stay! The only reason I am giving 4 stars is due to the crazy amount of dog hair inside the house! It was all over our clothes and ski gear when we left the house each day. One person in our party was allergic to dogs, so that was a quite frustrating. The property details state: "the home is not pet friendly so please do not bring your pets." So you would assume from that statement you would not be dealing with significant amounts of dog hair. Additionally, the cleaning crew was still in the house finishing up at 4:30pm when we checked in (check in was 4pm). Which was also a bit frustrating. We had high expectations for how much we spent on the house during the week, overall cleanliness and timely check in should never be an issue. Otherwise the property was really solid!

Wonderful family vacation home

Beautiful home on mountainside overlooking the Animas River valley and surrounding mountains. Home accommodated 3 adult couples and 5 children for a week. Secluded location placed us away from the busy traffic of Durango but placed us 15 minutes from the center of town for shopping and catching the train to Silverton. The kids watched the trains pass every morning and afternoon. We visited Mesa Verde National Park and spent an afternoon playing golf at the public course in town. After a busy day the kids jumped in the hot tub and adults sat on the wrap around porch to watch the sunset and the moonrise. Plenty of room to park 3 vehicles even without access to the garage. More than adequate garbage receptacles, adequate clothes washing and storage space. Fantastic master bathroom and shower and beds were comfortable. Kitchen was very well equipped and good supply of paper goods, detergent and toiletries. House as clean as was the exterior surroundings. Unfortunately the attempts to cool the attic bedroom upstairs has not been effective. Even with fans on full speed the kids found it difficult sleeping. The 2 minor bathrooms are small and space constrained. TV controls in master bedroom did not work but the other TVs were operational. We were not provided a list of things to do to close up the house.

This property is amazing. Beautiful views, quiet location. A bonus bus the narrow gauge runs by!!! It is conveniently located between the ski area and town. It makes it easy to get either one. If you are a cyclist then trails are not far from you either.

Magnificent Seven

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was the perfect size for the seven of us. The views were fantastic with plenty of large windows and a huge deck. The amenities, hot tub included were all utilized during our stay. The location was far enough away from town to enjoy, yet close enough to drive within minutes. We loved seeing the wild life, deer, turkey etc. We also enjoyed the seeing the narrow gauge train that passes daily right in front of the property, that was a treat to see. Overall great stay would stay again and would recommend.

Beautiful property but not for seniors

This house is comfortable, clean, and well appointed. The views are great. The outdoor living spaces are really nice. The Durango-Silverton railroad going by in late mornings and early evening were a bonus for us and fun to watch. Overall we enjoyed this property once we ironed out a few wrinkles. We are young seniors but have 2 people in our group with vision problems. The step-down living room was a surprise as it was not in the property description. The wooden steps are hard to see if one is not paying attention. We fixed the problem by putting painters tape on the steps so those with vision issues could see them. The 2 bedrooms with King beds were well appointed and comfortable. The upstairs tub-shower is slippery. Those sleeping upstairs opted to use the downstairs hall bathroom/shower instead. The master bathroom and shower are a little slippery, too. Definitely use the bath mats! The downstairs bedroom with a queen bed is a converted office so no closet in the room, but there is a hall closet and bathroom/shower across the hall. The upstairs bedroom with the queen bed is not well ventilated. Fans are available in the room. No screen on the window and no shade on the window that does not open above the bed so the sun shines in brightly and makes the room hot. We used paper bags and painters tape to fashion a sunscreen to keep the bright light and heat to a minimum. The bonus bedroom room has no windows at all so ventilation is an issue.

Beautiful views

We enjoyed our stay at the property overall. The views are amazing, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the property was clean. The property management were communicative during our stay. Unfortunately, we didn’t have water for 3 days from the hours of 8:30-12:30 on two days and the last day 8am-2pm. Property management sent someone to the house after we inquired about the water. He told us the water got turned off due to a remodel being done in the neighborhood. It turned out to be a city upgrade issue so it was confusing there wasn’t a heads up. We weren’t able to shower, use the bathroom etc and had a full house. I know it isn’t the property to blame but the transparency of the issue seemed off and paying full price for a place we couldn’t use for a total of 14 hours was frustrating. The other comment is the listing states central air but the two bedrooms plus large closet (listed as a bedroom) upstairs do not have vents for air. The screen was missing on one of the windows so it was rather hot for the guests staying upstairs in one of the bedrooms. They do have ceiling and box fans which helps. The downstairs “bedroom” doesn’t have a closet in it nor a place for the guests to store their clothes within the room. The listing should be more accurately listed as a 3 bedroom with additional sleeping areas.
