About this property

Pet Friendly Cabin on 3.5 acres between Durango and Purgatory - Fire Pit

Our modern 800 square foot single level pet friendly cabin features a King Bed in a separate bedroom, a Queen Sofa Sleeper and a kitchenette and is located 10 miles (14 minutes) from Purgatory Ski Resort and 16 miles (less then 30 minutes) from downtown Durango.

Nestled among century old pines, the cabin is on a secluded, 3.5 acre property surrounded by National Forest on one side and the exclusive Glacier Club on the other. You will not find a more peaceful retreat with as easy access to all that Durango has to offer, no matter what time of year you visit this spectacular part of Colorado. Note there is a similar sized cabin about 75 feet from this cabin - there are not share spaces with the other cabin. Each cabin has its own wood burning fire pit

Bed Configuration:
King bedroom (main level)
Queen sleeper sofa (main level)

This home is pet friendly! We allow a maximum of 2 dogs max and the pet fee is $40/day (for a max $250 per stay).

Delightfully Secluded Cabin

We enjoyed the experience of being in the woods, but just off of a major highway. It's a beautiful location and just as stated in the property description.

Great remote property

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The remote, quiet location yet proximity to both Purgatory and Durango were what we were looking for. But the kitchen stove and cookware were not ideal for making family dinners. And last there was evidence of mice in the kitchen cabinets. We asked the property management company for options and were provided none. Even after requesting additional cleaning, the mice returned and left additional evidence they were still present. One word, hantavirus.
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Jan 2026

We are very sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with the kitchen and the presence of mice. Please know that the health and safety of our guests is our top priority. We take reports like this very seriously and have already escalated the matter to our professional pest control and cleaning teams to ensure the property meets strict standards moving forward.

Anniversary Trip

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: Really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. Especially enjoyed the flock of wild turkeys and the deer that came by. So good to see so many stars as we live in a big city. The cabin was cozy and had everything we needed for a pleasant time. A good place to spend our 48th anniversary! Enjoyed hiking nearby and some time in Durango. Beautiful fall color as we headed home over Red Mountain Pass. Will definitely stay here again when in the area.

Great stay!

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: Stayed here for a little weekend away in the mountains. It’s about 20 minutes north of the downtown area of Durango. Its a nice and quiet wooded area which is just what we wanted. It’s very easy to get to. We went hiking in Silverton which was about a 40 minute drive to the town. The place was very clean and had everything we needed for our weekend stay. It’s an older place that has been redone. The only complaint which we didn’t really even mind was that the bathroom sink didn’t drain properly. Kitchen sink worked great :)

Nice Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My sister and I wanted to have just a no frills cabin get away for a week. This place turned out to be perfect. We had to call the hosts when wifi went out, and they were very responsive. Loved how it was small but still had some nice things like stone in the bathroom. Lord willing, will gladly come back. It wasn’t a problem, but only thing I would say is they need to revise the listing description a bit. When it noted it was on “3.5 acres”, it made us think it was secluded and one could have an area to walk around. There’s actually a cabin next to it and a large house on the property. Again, still loved the set up, but it’s not really secluded. The area it’s in is really nice. The cabin has a lean in the foundation, but it in an odd way added to the charm.

Cozy cabin in the woods

We loved this cozy cabin in the woods - we arrived after the area received 40” of snow - but the cabin was nice and warm. About 1/4 from the main road and plowed to the property then snow in the drive way. Minutes from the ski area and hot springs. Lots of land for our dog to explore (property not fenced). Other cabin is quite close - but got to know the guests - and the their dog and ours got to play. Will definately be back!!
