This house was a wonderful home base for exploring the Durango area. The location worked out beautifully — we were close enough to visit Mesa Verde National Park, spend an afternoon shopping the trading posts in Farmington, and still make it into historic Durango without feeling like we were always in the car. Being right on the river was one of our favorite parts of the stay; with the windows and doors open, you could just hear the water flowing, and it made the whole place feel peaceful and calming. We were treated to deer in the front yard several times, which never got old. It was quiet, restful, and exactly the kind of setting we were hoping for.The one thing I'd mention is that the house could have used a more thorough cleaning before our arrival — there were cobwebs on a few of the wall décor pieces, some dust film on the chest in the bathroom, and the ping pong table in the garage felt a bit grungy. Nothing that ruined our stay, but worth a heads-up for the next guests and maybe an easy fix for the owners between bookings.Overall, we had a lovely time and would happily consider staying here again for the location and the peaceful setting alone.

Thank you so much for the kind words and for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review! We're so glad the location worked well as a home base for Mesa Verde, Farmington, and downtown Durango. The river really is the star of this property, and it sounds like you enjoyed it just the way we hoped you would. The deer visits never get old for us either! We appreciate you letting us know about the cleaning details. We've shared your notes on the wall décor, the bathroom chest, and the ping pong table with our cleaning team so those spots get more attention between stays. We'd love to welcome you back anytime!
