About this property

Bushnell Historic Home in Downtown Durango

**Book Today for Only $300 Down at the Time of Booking ***

Constructed in 1883, when Durango was a young, burgeoning mining town, the Bushnell House, aka A.P. Camp House, is one of the oldest homes in Durango.  This truly Historic home was originally built for A.P. Camp, founder of the Bank of Durango only two years after the incorporation of the town. 

A notable and true example of Victorian era architecture, the Bushnell House is a long-standing pillar of the Durango Historical Society in terms of notable places in the downtown avenues.  Remarkably, this 138 year old home, located just two blocks from Historic Main Avenue, has been owned by only two families during its existence.

Bed Configuration:
Bedroom 1 - Queen (2nd Floor)
Bedroom 2 - Double/Full (2nd Floor)
Bedroom 3 - Double/Full (2nd Floor)
Living Area - Sofa bed (2nd Floor)

Perfect location. Tons of space.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Our family spent a fabulous month here from late February to late March. The location is perfect -- close to downtown and easy walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, train station, hiking/walking trails and grocery stores. Yet, it feels like a quiet residential street. The bedrooms have a B&B or 'going to stay at Grandma's' vibe, which my family loved. The kitchen is dated but well stocked for cooking and baking (although we would have liked a coffee maker bigger than a 4-cup). We had a few small maintenance issues when we first arrived but the rental company resolved everything within the first 24 hours. The windows could have used a good washing but everything else was clean. The layout is somewhat quirky -- the only shower is on the main floor in a room by itself. There is a powder room on the main floor beside it. The one full bathroom is upstairs and has a bathtub only. But it's an old house and modern conveniences had to be retrofitted in. We loved it!

Beautiful Historic Home
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 Bushnell House is an historic gem. The place is huge, especially considering the wrap-around porch, fenced back yard and garage. And it's just a few steps out the back door to all the fun downtown.

Stepping back in time
Great location. Convenient to walk to everywhere downtown. Convenient to the bike trails and do shopping and restaurants. Quaint old Victorian home with a lot of character. Every challenge was immediately addressed. One shower for six people and reduced water flow brought back childhood memories lol. It was like staying at grandmas house! We even had deer in our backyard.
Stayed 69 nights in Feb 2023
