About this property
Log cabin at Vallectio lake with wrap around porch!
Bearadise is a beautiful log cabin, cozy enough for 2 or comfortable enough for 10! Surrounded by trees, Bearadise is as restful and relaxing as its name suggests. Relax inside and find there’s plenty of adventure just beyond the cabin’s doorstep. The Weminuche Mountains and downtown Durango are among the attractions just minutes away.
Kick back on the wrap around porch, listen to birds singing as the crisp mountain breeze whistles through the trees, and then you will understand how this log cabin got its name. It is impossible to feel anything but paradise when you’re sitting out here.
Bearadise's interior offers more laid-back comforts. Stretch out on the generously cushioned sofa or gather together with the gang to watch a movie on the flat screen HDTV. In summer, ceiling fans will cool you off after a long hike in the mountains, while in winter you’ll love sitting by the pellet fireplace when you return from a day on the slopes. Bearadise's dining table seats 8 and the kitchen is equipped with all the appliances, cookware, gadgets, and tableware you could possibly need. There’s also a pellet bbq grill on the porch.
Thanks to the kitchen’s dishwasher, cleanup will be a snap. But if you don’t want to even bother with loading the dishwasher, why not head downstairs for a game of darts, with the loser having to pull KP duty?
The master suite on the upper floor is so inviting, you may find yourself making excuses to turn in early. That queen-size bed is beyond sumptuous!
On the main floor behind the kitchen and living areas you will find 2 bedrooms. One with a luxurious king size bed and the other room with a queen. The main bathroom with a large updated shower is located between the two rooms.
In the basement you will find all the fun! There is a large sectional couch, TV, Darts and room for all the kids to escape and play! You will find a queen and 2 twin beds in this area.
There’s plenty more to do just minutes away. As well as restaurants, just minutes away near the boat dock. When you stay at Bearadise you can rest assured that you’re going to enjoy one of your best getaways yet. So book your reservation, and start counting down the days!

About the host
Hosted by Steve and Jill Currier

Steve and I purchased this property in November of 2021 as a vacation home. We live in TX and have been on a search for the perfect home for years. We thought originally, we wanted a beach property, but quickly discovered that the cost of ownership at the beach was out of the budget. I grew up in Farmington and have family who have a vacation home at Vallectio as well. We quickly realized that Vallecito was the perfect spot for our vacation/retirement home and Bearadise was born!
Why they chose this property
Bearadise is perfect for two or spacious enough for a large group. Perfectly situated between Durango and Pagosa Springs. We are just off the main road, so winter accessibly is easy. In the warmer months, Bearadise is right in the middle of all the mountain activities - fishing, boating, hiking, biking, horseback riding and ATV trails.
What makes this property unique
We have stayed in many VRBO properties and one of the features that I LOVE is the opportunity to have a chef or concierge service. We are thrilled to offer to you a full- service opportunity where everyone feels like they are on vacation. Lisa at Property Concierge will take care of everything from ski/lift tickets, groceries, meals, you name it, she can help you. Contact her for pricing and details of all services. www.pagosaspringconcierge.com or 1-970-884-4003.
