Very nice home with everything you could need for a great stay. Comfy beds, really well kitted kitchen (crockpot, blender, awesome toaster oven), washer and dryer. Makes for a great spot to explore the Durango area (about 10 minutes from town, 15 to airport, 2 hrs to telluride, an hour to Ouray, 20 minutes to Durango Train. Amazing views and a great common space for relaxing. Would highly recommend and definitely would stay here again!

Family stay

We had a very pleasant stay here while in Durango. The photos don’t do this place justice on how big it is! There’s so much space throughout the house and there’s practically everything you could need while there. Our family of 6 felt right at home. Close enough to the city center and far enough to feel secluded from the world.

Overall a nice property. I do not feel it was accurately listed that there are folks that live in the below part of the house....so that was a surprise for sure. Other than that it was conveniently located and a nice property.

Spectacular view

The property is beautiful with great views of mountain. We rented this property because we needed more space and it was as advertised with space for six people, although we didn't actually need that much because some family elected to stay in town in hotel, but it would have been great. very clean and beautiful kitchen and main living area. We would go again if we wanted to go to that area.

Excellent trip

A very nice place with more than your average amenities. Clean, well equipped and located about 10 minutes from downtown. Great views and overall super comfortable place to stay. I've stayed at many VRBO's and I have to say the beds were perhaps the best of any place I've been, especially after a hard day skiing. Thank you and hope to be back next year!

Family vacation

Our family consisted of 6 adults and 1 child. There is ample room for everything. The view from the back deck is great! The property is located within reasonable distance to local activities. We have stayed in homes for the past 15 years for vacations and this kitchen was the best as far as space and anything you may need for cooking. Dry nice house with a great rental price! Highly recommend.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I am originally from Oklahoma and moved to Colorado in 2016. It didn't take long for me to fall in love with Durango and the surrounding area. Despite being a smaller mountain town, Durango has a lot to offer! During the winter I enjoy snowboarding and in the warmer months hiking with my dog, and biking with friends. Hosting has been quite fun for me as I like meeting new people, allowing guests to partake in my abundant home, and sharing all the adventure SW Colorado has to offer.

What makes this property unique

The view from my property is breathtaking as the La Plata mountains are on full display from the back porch, not to mention the amazing sunsets that take place over the peaks each night! The neighborhood is quiet and out of town just far enough to feel secluded. The deer and wildlife are a great addition to the yard and quite entertaining to watch in the morning and evening hours.
