We had such a great time relaxing as a family! From the hot tub, cozy fireplace inside and fire pit outside, and games they had available we didn't really need to leave. Made lots of great memories with our kids!
Beautiful, clean, and spacious property extremely close to everything you want to do in Durango. We will be telling friends and family about this property!
Such a peaceful, beautifully decorated and comfortable home. The beds are comfy, the kitchen well stocked with any and all extras for cooking and enjoying family time. We’ll definitely be back, soon I hope!!!
This ranch was so much fun for our family. The area was so beautiful with horses, deer and open space. The house itself is spacious with so much room for our family of six. The kitchen was a dream and the bedrooms were so roomy and comfortable. The place was immaculate and had everything you could need.
This was our second stay at this house and it didn't disappoint! The host is responsive, nice and professional! We love all of the kids friendly touches that make our stay much easier!
This was the perfect property for our Christmas getaway! The house and yard were gorgeous and the proximity to town was perfect. We can’t wait to come back!
The house was very clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need. My kids really enjoyed playing with all the toys in the game room. The beds were very comfortable and the spa room was an added plus! We hope to stay here again during our next visit!
Julia’s home is the perfect family VRBO. It is comfortable, clean and they are such amazing people. If we ever get back down to Durango, we will be booking here again!
My wife and I selected this property to stay around the Durango location for vacation this year. We were pleased with the property, it was clean and quiet. Everything was as described. We would definitely stay here again. If you are looking to enjoy a relaxing stay, I recommend it.
This is a beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood just outside of town.
We loved seeing the birds and wildlife in the backyard while enjoying our morning coffee.
This was perfect for our little getaway to visit family in town. We will definitely stay here again if we get the chance.
We had a wonderful time at the ranch. Our dog loved the 6+ acres of space to roam and we loved the back deck for relaxing. The ranch is well stocked with amenities and the hosts were very responsive. It is easy to get into town for restaurants or groceries.
This property is very well kept. It is clean, fully stocked with everything you could possibly need, and so cozy. We had a wonderful time and are very much looking forward to hopefully staying here again.

This house is so well decorated and maintained. On top of that it is so well stocked for families with kids of all ages. The wildlife is an added bonus and the host is really responsive and nice. We will book this again in the future! We loved our vacation here!
This is our second time staying in this home because we loved it so much the first time. The home is warm and inviting, providing the basic necessities you will need for your stay, including lots of toys for the kids. I appreciate the attention to detail the host has put into this home, making our stay very comfortable. Looking forward to coming back again!

A great location to get away to those who love that country vibe.Wasnt to far from the City Durango to get some lunch nor was it to far away to enjoy some peace and quiet.
