Great house in very good location.

We enjoyed our stay in Durango at this house. Was very well kept and clean. Furnished beautifully and the view of the mountains and golf course were spectacular. We would definitely recommend to anyone heading to the Durango area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dalton Ranch vacation home. Pristine clean in a lovely setting on the golf course. We enjoyed walking the neighborhood, lunching at the club house and just enjoying the home. If you like chuckwagon dinners, the Bar D is just around the corner. Great show and good food. I would highly recommend this home.

Beautiful property! Did not feel like a rental, felt like we were staying at a friend’s house. Very comfortable. Walkable neighborhood and very dog friendly. Best part of house is back patio overlooking golf course. Spent a lot of family time enjoying the evenings out there. Hope to be back!

Beautiful property and fantastic owners

This is one of the nicest VRBO properties that I have rented. The property is beautiful with all the extras anyone would need. Within 10 minute drive to Durango and located in a great neighborhood. We will definitely return to Durango and hope we are able to stay at this great home again. You cannot go wrong with this property.

The home was beautiful in a very nice neighborhood. The road noise was loud if you were out on the patio, unfortunately. The homeowner was very nice and answered any questions we had prior to our stay.

Private, peaceful, and relaxing

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home on the golf course. My mother-in-law couldn't get over all the serving plates and bowls, utensils, and everything for cooking that comes with this home. We spent a lot of time on the large back patio surrounded by trees, looking out on the little lake. We loved hearing the Durango/Silverton steam engine's whistle blow and could see it pass by.

Amazing, beautiful home…no complaints!

Excellent comfortable house with everything you need either there or are very available a short distance from home. The 3 bedrooms each have their own private bathroom! Kitchen table was good for meals and playing cards and the dining room table was perfect for 6 of us at breakfast. Washer/dryer & BBQ grill was so nice to have. Nice view of golf course & perfectly located for everything we wanted to do. James Ranch and Eolus were perfect places to eat and the homemade ice cream downtown was really good and I’m an expert when it comes to ice cream!

A Wonderful Stay!

We have vacationed in many VRBO and AIRB&B properties over the years, and this one ranks as one of the very, very best ever!! This gorgeous and obviously well-loved home is exceptionally clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated with the owner’s impressive art collection. It’s also well-supplied with all the basics you might need—and then some. The location, in a lovely and peaceful neighborhood, is convenient to everything the Durango area has to offer. As an added bonus, the famous narrow gauge train passes nearby several times a day, blowing its nostalgic whistle. My family and I just loved that. Communication with the owners and caretaker was excellent in every way. Honestly, I can’t recommend this property highly enough. We created wonderful family memories there and truly hope we can return someday.

Heavenly stay at Horse Thief Camp!

If I could give this home 10 stars, I would. Everything was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. There is literally nothing negative to say about this home. The appointments are tasteful, comfortable and warm, almost familiar even if it is your first visit. The neighborhood and location are fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the back porch, halfway down the 7th fairway, positioned just across a beautiful pond with the rugged, red mountains just beyond taking in the site. Between the fairway and mountains, the Durango and Silverton narrow gauge steam trains would chug by a few times a day, providing a nostalgic view and sound as the whistles would blow. The home has everything you need and one of the most inviting treats is the steam shower in the master. We will be back. Hopefully many times over.

Great location

This wonderful home is in a quiet neighborhood. It was very well equipped with everything we needed, and then some. Quality cookware, utensils, dishes, linens, etc. It was very clean, comfortable, and we felt like we were at home. The owner and property manager were very easy to work with. We will be back!

Excellent property in grat location

The house is in great shape and has everything one should need for the stay. Well stocked with everything needed in the kitchen, which is sometimes lacking in other properties we have rented. The location is close to Animas River, Dalton Ranch Golf Club (an excellent track), great hiking and fishing. Not in the city, so it is quiet, but also an easy drive to shopping and dining. Dynamite owners who are very good to work with, and a manager who lives in the neighborhood. However, in the times we have spent in this house in the past few years, we have never encountered anything that required the help of the manager. It's all just ready to go when you get there. A very comfortable home for relaxing with wonderful opportunities for numberous activities.

You will love this house!

We recently spent a week here and loved the house and Location. The area is very pretty and very quiet. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood too. The house is very well supplied, comfortable, and true to the listing. We found the neighborhood and all of Durango to be very friendly. Communication with the owner was very easy too. We would definitely stay here again if we were coming to this area.

Awesome Property in Durango

We had such a great vacation. The house, property and neighborhood were even better than the pictures and other reviews stated. Short drive up to Purgatory and down to downtown Durango made this the perfect location for us. Owners were very friendly, house was super clean and very well furnished. Would love to stay every year!

Quiet, lovely home!

My husband and kiddo, who is 11, stayed at Mary’s home and were so glad we did. The house is lovely and filled with some really fantastic books! The house was clean, and well stocked, especially with the small necessities like coffee filters, and spices etc. The house was also very quiet and we love the Dalton Ranch community. I would recommend this stay to anyone. Big or small families could make this place a great Landing pad for a fun trip! We are back in Durango every year band hope we get to stay at Mary’s home again.

Lovely home in Dalton Ranch

We found the home very comfortable with nice view of the pond and golf course, the Durango - Silverton train and the surrounding mountains. Dalton Ranch was just beautiful this year. We always enjoy a visit and the house on Horse Thief was a very pleasant way to enjoy the area. The host was very helpful and the home was well stocked.

Fantastic House and Location!!

We had a great time! The house was in a great location for accessing everything in and around Durango. There was a grocery store within walking distance. The house was spacious and had more than enough room for a family of four. In addition, it had all the basic necessities for cooking, cleaning, etc. Loved it and recommend it for anyone looking for a great place to stay while visiting Durango.

Not your average vacation rental.

This is a beautiful home in a great neighborhood. We loved our stay at Horsethief; it was the perfect basecamp for our family of four to explore all that the Durango area has to offer. It has AC, which is rare in the area, and we appreciated at the end of July. The house is super spacious, clean and well equipped. The beds are comfortable, the welcome package was great and so was the house manual. The neighbors (and seemingly all the locals) are very friendly. We couldn't ask for more!!!
