About this property
5 Bed/3 Bath near Purgatory, Hot Springs & Downtown Durango
Enjoy this 5 bedroom / 3 bath getaway with elevated views of the Animas Valley. The property is perfectly located only 1 minute to the new hot springs, 20 minutes to Purgatory Resort, 1 minute to Dalton Ranch golf course and 10 minutes to downtown Durango.
Access miles of hiking and biking trails right out the backdoor as the house is secluded and surrounded by the San Juan National forest on 2 sides.
This house is great for families and large groups and is even equipped with a game room and bunk beds for the kids. The house is two floors which allows for privacy for multiple families/groups under one roof. Please note, you must be able to climb stairs as the main living area and kitchen are upstairs, which allows for beautiful, elevated views :)
The home also has many new improvements including: Central AC/Heating, backyard patio, remodeled bathroom downstairs and new driveway (steepness was slightly reduced and compact gravel added for traction).
Pleases note, even with the enhancements the driveway is still fairly steep and you must have 4WD/AWD during Winter months.

The house wonderfully fit our needs. We were a family of 12 (grandparents, kids and grandkids) and we enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and was well represented in the listing. It’s perfectly located between Durango (about 10 minutes) and Purgatory Ski Resort (about 20 minutes). Kyle was a great host - was super helpful and responded quickly the few times we had questions.
Wonderful house! Beautiful views, plenty of space, and great location to everything. Our host was very responsive and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Having lived in Durango in the 90’s, I knew that I’d like to stay just north of town as we wanted to spend some time in Durango and also at Purgatory. This was the perfect location!
House worked out great for the seven of us. Large family area, comfortable bedrooms, and cool patios all along the outside.
Kyle made sure that we were enjoying ourselves.
Highly recommend!
Great place to stay. Great accommodations. Beautiful view and close to downtown Durango. Loved the privacy of this location. You can’t go wrong staying here for your next Durango vacation.

We stayed with a group of friends and visited the hot springs, Purgatory, and went for a train ride in Durango. The house was central to everything we wanted to do.

Thanks for the great review Tiffany! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the home and had a great time in Durango! You were a pleasure to host and we would gladly welcome you back again anytime! Have safe travels home! 😊
We enjoyed how it was a little north of town in the tall pine trees. We used both patios and tables for relaxing, the dinner table inside had abundant space for all of us. We rented electric bikes and rode all over; rode the mountain coaster at Purgatory, enjoyed the drive to Ouray and spend the day there. Overall, the house and stay topped off each and every day. SIDE NOTE: The owner found out than my wife had passed away in between booking and our visit... and went above and beyond in showing their condolences. Thank you guys so much!! We'll be back!
Newly remodeled, exterior still in progress, worked well for a large family / group

The host was wonderful to communicate with and helpful all around. The accommodations were perfect for our large family. So many rooms and bathrooms to go around. Great distance from the heart of Durango and hot springs. A trip our family will not forget and plan to repeat.

This property worked out perfectly for a long weekend family gathering in Durango, CO. Nice common area with living room and kitchen, and comfortable bedrooms. A clean and tidy house. Owner was very responsive to a few questions prior to our arrival. We will likely stay here again.

We had an excellent time during our Durango vacation. The house accommodated our large group well and Kyle was a very responsive host, who answered all questions in a very timely manner. We didn't have any issues/problems with the house at all so there wasn't much communication needed! We wouldn't hesitate to rent again!
This home had everything we needed from for our group of 11 which ranged from 1 year old through 75. Kids loved the hikes up the mountain from the back yard. Shared Thanksgiving dinner with three Does dining outside.
The owner provided an open line of communication throughout the whole visit .
The property description was pvery accurate.
10 of us stayed for a weekend wedding. Loved it. Didn’t get to spend much time there, but everyone was comfortable and there was plenty of room for me an and lots of parking. The owner got back to me within an hour when I had a question.
Place was great! Location was a bit closer to town than I anticipated, and that was helpful. Hot air balloons in the valley on our departure day! Would suggest extending the handrail all the way to the top of the stairs (gramma kind of wiped out), more dish towels, and warmer light bulbs :). Would love to come back again, thanks!

Hi Jackie, thanks for the awesome 5 star review. The hot air balloon show in the Animas Valley is definitely something special to see. Thanks for the feedback, we just added the new patio and will have the hand railing installed next week. We also have an entire closet filled with dish towels and we will have the cleaning team put more of them out. You were great guests and we would have you back anytime! Safe travels home! 😊
Totally enjoyed our stay! House was perfect for our needs. Any minor problems were handled immediately. Had a problem with one of the game tables failing on my granddaughter because it apparently was broken. But would definitely stay here again!

Thanks for the awesome 5 star review and feedback Margaret! We are so glad you enjoyed the house and your time in Durango. We were able to replace the air hockey table with a new 3-1 game table for the game room. Our kids tried it out and loved it. Have safe travels home and you’re welcome back anytime! 😊
