Very comfortable property! Very clean and I am picky! Unit was furnished with everything we needed! Beautiful view off deck! We had morning coffee on the deck every day! Close to so much to do! Just north of Durango about 18 miles which was perfect as it was cooler! The grounds were beautiful and well maintained! We hope to come back often!

This condo was clean and right on the 3rd fairway. Appliances were low-end and first floor bed needs a new mattress, the headboard wasn't attached and made noise every time you moved (fixed with towels). Nice amenities at the resort. A bit far from downtown Durango and we found ourselves heading north to trails. Regardless, I'd go back.

We stayed in #786 in July and had a wonderful time! The condo is laid out perfectly and we enjoyed our stay. Our only complaint is the comfort level of the master bedroom mattress. The upstairs beds were super comfortable but the master was very uncomfortable! Overall, an incredible home base for our Durango adventures!

Thank you so much for your review! We are so glad you and your guests enjoyed your stay with Vacation Rental Collective. We hope to host you again in the future!
Nice location about 20 minutes north of Durango settled in the mountains. Apartment is dated but clean. The lightbulb in the living room was missing so there wasn’t really adequate light.The patio sits facing the highway, which is noisy. As others have mentioned in their reviews, the patio can be very enjoyable, but for someone like me who likes quiet, it wasn’t an area that I could peacefully use, which was a disappointment. I should’ve done more research. If you don’t mind noise, then it will be lovely. Communication was superb. We didn’t use any of the amenities such as fitness room or pool, but these were located on the other end of the complex a short drive away. Overall, we had a lovely stay.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay overall and found the apartment clean and our communication superb. We appreciate your note about the lightbulb and the patio noise — we’ll make sure the lighting is addressed and will highlight the patio’s location in future guest information so expectations are clear. We hope to welcome you back for an even more comfortable stay in the future!
The property was nice and accommodating
2 things tho :
Mice or some sort of pest are in the downstairs walls. A little unsettling at night. And at 6am Saturday I wasn’t counting on hearing the neighbors hammer and saw. I was on vacation and would’ve enjoyed getting to sleep in . Other than that we had a great stay and fabulous time
