The place was great, clean and beautiful views of the mountains. My only complaint was I thought the property was going to be more private, "in the woods" it was right next to the hosts main house. Overall it was a great place to stay.

Thank you for your kind review, Emily! We’re happy to hear that you found the property clean and enjoyed the beautiful mountain views. We do note in the listing details that the home is a guest house located on a larger property, separated from the main house, and that the owners will almost always be on-site to provide guidance and assistance when needed. We appreciate you mentioning this, as it may be a helpful reminder for future guests. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay overall and hope to welcome you back in the future!

I might have rated 5 stars but, the gravel road to the property was a bit much.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We do clearly note in the property listing that the short access road to the home is unpaved and steep in some areas, but is accessible by all vehicles during the spring, summer, and fall seasons. From November 1 through March 31, 4WD vehicles or front-wheel-drive vehicles equipped with chains are required. We understand that road conditions can be an important consideration when choosing a property, which is why we encourage guests to review all of the information in the listing carefully to ensure the home and its access are a good fit for their needs. While we have not previously received complaints from guests regarding access, we appreciate you sharing your experience. Your feedback may be helpful to future guests as they plan their stay. Thank you again for being our guest.

Views were excellent! Property was perfect for the two of us and our littles pooches. Our Vrbo home was exceptionally clean, stocked with everything we needed and a quiet sanctuary to recharge a bit. We had the privilege of meeting the owner, Gerry who was at another one of his properties, he was very cordial, and provided useful info on restaurants, things to do and offered use of his washer & dryer at the neighboring property as our unit did not have one. Very nice guy!

Durango Silverton long weekend

This accommodation and the views from the balcony were awesome. The space itself is clean and has everything that you would need. The only thing I didn’t find was a full length mirror, but that was minor compared to the fact that everything else I looked for I was able to find. we got there at night and the owner was there and ready to help us to make sure that we got in OK because it was so dark. They were very kind and friendly. When I woke up in the morning and looked out the windows to see the view. I lost my breath. We would absolutely stay here again. We did end up staying an extra night this time because we loved it so much. There’s tons to do and this is an amazing place to rest your head and relax

Overall we enjoyed our stay here. However several unexpected issues arose. I did speak to the rental management agency and he did quickly help with a couple issues (step ladder, as cupboards are for taller people than I am; and oil for the squeaky doors), and said he would notify the owner about others. We did meet the owner - friendly guy. So, instead of a lower rating, I am rating 4 stars, on the assumption that some/many of the issues will be corrected. -the unit is on the 2nd floor, above a garage (stairs). While we could negotiate this, someone else might not and this needs to be noted in the accessibility description-bedroom was small, with no bedside table or lamp on 1 side. This might be corrected by 2 smaller tables. I had to walks sideways to get into bed.-no closet in the bedroom. Need a place to put suitcases while using them, such as a foldable stand. Small area in pantry available with hangers. Dresser available.-some linens soiled or showing age; toss them or use for cleaning, as other linens (not those hanging in the bathroom for us) were OK.-bathroom has 1 small towel rack. There's room for another, as we had 2 people using bathroom towels.-some rugs and some living room covers were approaching threadbare.-some living room furniture shown in the listing was not in the apartment, making comfortable sitting more difficult.The view is lovely, especially the fall colors.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay overall and that our team was able to promptly assist you by providing a step ladder and oil for the doors. We also appreciate you noting that the unit is located above the garage and requires climbing a flight of stairs—this is helpful information for future guests, and we’ve since updated our listing to reflect that. Regarding your suggestions about adding another bedside table, lamp, foldable stand, and additional towel rack, thank you for your input. The property does include a bedside table and lamp, but we’ve passed along your recommendations to our team for consideration in future updates. We’re sorry to hear that some of the linens did not meet expectations. This is the first time we’ve received such feedback, but we’re glad you were able to find the other linens provided in better condition. Similarly, while we haven’t previously received comments about the rugs or living room covers, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will keep it in mind for future improvements. We strive to ensure our property description and photos accurately represent what the home offers. We’re proud to maintain a 9.6-star rating and are grateful for our many exceptional reviews. Thank you again for sharing your feedback as it helps us continue to enhance our guest experience.
