About this property

Wild Horse~House Downtown Durango *Sanitized & High Speed Wi-Fi*



City of Durango Permit #11-183

Just a note on the current Covid 19 situation; We *Sanitize* our vacation rentals according to the CDC guidelines with safe practices like: Masks, Gloves, Bleach, washing on Hot, and a whole lot of obsessive cleaning! Our places are very safe to stay and enjoy without worry. Durango is currently partially open with masks required in all public spaces. Restaurants are open with social distancing in place.

Situated on a huge lot, in the heart of Downtown Durango, the Wild Horse Guesthouse is only five blocks from the Durango & Silverton Train Station.

This two bedroom one bath house is uber comfy. Full of light, and decorated in what we call Modern Cowboy style. All the luxuries of a boutique hotel await: claw foot tub, tile shower, new memory foam beds, fine linens, and an American Leather Comfort Sleeper couch in the living room. There is a king sized bed in the master bedroom, and a queen in the second bedroom. Then the Queen Sleeper couch and a nice full sized futon in the living room. Four beds total.

The kitchen is complete with real knives, gas range, full sized refrigerator, island, and all the dishes and pans you could want. Open floor plan lends itself to family gatherings. There is A/C in the summer and a beautiful gas fire place in the winter.

The front yard is fully landscaped with a nice cool lawn to play on and a covered porch with furnishings. The porch is new and with post and beam construction under a rusty metal roof is is super stylish. Being on the north side of the house in the summer it is a great place to eat al fresco.

The back yard is huge and surrounded by a privacy fence. There is even a doggy door to the side yard that leads to the back yard. Woof.

Location is where it is at: half a block from the River Walk trail to Santa Rita Park, a short walk to Durango Natural Foods Co-Op our great local grocery, Horse Gulch Trail System, the Train Station, coffee and breakfast places, and of corse all the downtown restaurants and shops just a short walk away.

The Wild Horse Guesthouse, a beautiful place for your family to explore Durango.

All the best,

The house was very comfortable for my husband and I and our dachshund. The house kept nice and cool with the window air units. We enjoyed the covered patio and watching the friendly deer munching on the trees in the front yard. You can walk to town in under 15 minutes, and drive in under 5 minutes - a great location in a quiet neighborhood!

Cute home with big fenced in yard

This home felt like a cozy Western cottage in town, but on a quiet street. I loved the decor! We appreciated being able to have our dogs with us - they enjoyed the big back yard. The shady front porch was also enjoyed by all of us.

Great location

My family and dog stayed for four nights at Wild Horse house. It was quaint and clean and in a great location. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we would need. I was able to walk downtown, to the river and to a playground with my kids very easily. Highly recommend!!

Loved staying here- very much recommend!

I have a high maintenance family with a paralyzed husband and a dog who has just had ACL surgery. The host was so accommodating and let us check in early and stay a little bit later due to the circumstances of a trip. The communication was excellent! I have actually stayed at her places before, and will be back.

Our five nights at horse house in Durango

The house was nice; however lacking in some areas. While the front yard is very nice with nice furniture and grass, the backyard, which makes this a “huge “ property is completely unusable- it’s a big rectangular area filled with rock. The two main bedrooms are quite nice, but aside from small hanging closet, there are no dresses and nowhere else to put away clothes (I.e. undergarments, tshirts, etc) we had to stack everything on the tiny little desk. The kitchen is pretty good, but lacking in small knives and any serving bowls or platters. I also tried communicating with the host several times before our visit and she never responded.

We came up from Austin Tx. First time Vrbo users. The pictures did not do the property justice! It is very cute! Very clean, large back yard, my dogs played until they were worn out! Will definitely return! Very nice HOT shower! Beds very comfy!

Excellent and Nice!

Loved the towels, excellent heater & cozy, and place was much bigger than the pictures! Our dogs loved the huge yard and the walking path that is two properties away on the left side with a creek. Would definitely stay here again. Thought the place was very fancy and had laundry and full kitchen. I even went to Natural Grocers to get the same Alpine Provisions Shampoo & Showerl Gel that they had in the bathroom! Comfortable beds. There was even ice cream left in the freezer to eat.

Great weekend away

property is very comfortable and convenient to downtown. Great queen bed. Yard photos and descriptions are a little misleading. Photos are of the front yard and that is not fenced. Backyard is fenced but overgrown with lots for dogs to get into. We didn't feel comfortable letting them out there. Quiet at night. Well equipped.

Quiet and close to trails

Really enjoyed our stay. Close to connection trial for Animas River Trail and Horse Gulch Trails. Nice layout, plenty of kitchen cooking and housewares, clean and safe. Not far from skiing and downtown eateries & shops. Sent wrong check in instructions but thankfully one of the owners answered promptly and sent correct entry. The only things I would suggest would be instructions to television. 3 remotes and we cld not figure out system. We weren’t really on vacation to watch but on a cold snowy night by fireplace, a movie would have been great. Also, maybe a blackout in Master bedroom window as neighbor’s outdoor flood light shines right in your face.

Lovely stay at the Wild Horse house with family and our dog! Beds were top notch in comfort, the space was cozy and comfortable. We loved the furnishings and enjoyed spending time on the front patio with all of the privacy of the shrub & tree border. It was a quiet and peaceful space with lots of privacy. We would definitely stay there again! Holly was responsive, pleasant and patient with our questions.

Sweet place. As advertised. Fantastic front porch and front yard. Well thought out house. Spacious. If you like nature walks you are feet to blocks from several. Downtown is only 10 - 15 min walk away. ACs work well. I hope to come back!

Very good experience

I loved my stay! The only negative aspect is that I am handicapped and use a walker. Getting down the front steps with my walker (particularly with a suitcase) was very, very difficult Also, I didn’t shower because there were no safety bars

I have a business degree from Fort Lewis College and have lived here in Durango for over 18 years. With a professional background in Design, I have had a ton of fun decorating the guesthouses in my own Modern Cowboy style. Clean and Beautiful. That is how I like it.
