  • This is a great property. We stayed here last weekend and spent all day Sat & Sun hiking in the mountains, then to come back to this condo was fantastic. My wife soaked in the large tub with the provided bath salts each night. She said it was like heaven. The patio views were unbelievable both day and night. We enjoyed watching the sun set over the mountains while resting up from our daily hikes. The bed was extremely comfortable and the condo was upscale, clean and fresh. It was a 3 minute drive to downtown for dinner, a 10 minute drive to the Colorado Trailhead, and a 15 minute drive to the LaPlata mountains (our two hiking places as suggested by the condo owner). We liked this place the best of any of the vacation rentals we've ever stayed at. It's especially nice that it's in town, but not noisy like the downtown hotels we've stayed at before. This condo is a high end property at an inexpensive price. We'll stay here again and would highly recommend this condo to others.

  • I come to Durango a few times a year on business, and last week I had a last minute trip and instead of staying at the Doubletree (where I usually stay), my wife checked VRBO for me and found this great condo. I recommend it. It was much more comfortable than the hotel. The place was quiet, comfortable - where else can you sit next to a beautiful river, enjoying mountain views and get work done on your laptop! I really enjoyed my stay and it cost less than the Doubletree! I've found a new favorite place to stay when I come to Durango.

  • My husband, our two kids, and I stayed at this condo last week. It's a great place. I would highly recommend it. Great value! The king bed was very comfortable with high quality linens. The entire place was freakishly clean - you don't see that very often with vacation rental properties. The kids loved the pullouts in the living room. My husband and I enjoyed sitting out on the balcony with the heater enjoying the crisp night air after the kids went to sleep. Our 9 year old figured out how to record TV shows so we could all stay out late and not miss "Medium". Everything was well stocked. Unlike most other places we've stayed over the years, we didn't have to buy a single thing for the condo during our four day stay. The wireless was fast, cell phone service (Verizon) was excellent. We'll definitely stay here next time we come to Durango. Marvelous Property! Highly recommend!

  • Oustanding property. This condo rivals and in many ways is superior to most of the five star $600/night hotels we've stayed at over the years. The property is spacious, immaculate, quiet and has the most amazing mountain and river views. We highly recommend this property.

  • This is an outstanding property!!! My husband and I spent a week at Jen's condo while hiking in the mountains around Durango. This part of Colorado is unbelivably beautiful. It was so rewarding to come home to the Rivergate Loft. It was so quiet and peaceful. In the evenings we would lie on the patio chairs and look at the stars, while bundled up, enjoying the brisk mountain air. I am certain you will love this place. Great Choice!

  • If you want to stay in the nicest unit of the nicest development in Durango, this is the place. Every attention to detail has been paid here. Sit on the huge patio and listen to the river pass by or relax in the high end contemporary dwelling where no amenity has been overlooked. You cannot go wrong here.

  • I have to echo other guest comments and say it was by far the best condo we have ever stayed at. The furnishings were beautiful, the views spectacular and the hospitality unparalleled. The deck alone would make me return. I have never experienced a more accomodating host -every thing we could possibly need was there for our convenience. Thank you for providing such a beautiful and thoughtful place to stay and enjoy the Durango area.

  • This was the best condo we have ever stayed at. Beautiful inside and out. The huge bathtub was awsome and the bed was so comfortable. River right outside the door was the best. Only down side would be the pull out beds aren't the most comfortable for older teens but since us parents got the king size bed we didn't really mind. Would stay here again, highly recommended.

  • This condo is much nicer than described. The pictures do not do it justice. The views are simply amazing. The balcony is amazing in the morning and evening after the sun goes down. It cools off nicely in the evenings and we enjoyed leaving the wide balcony doors open to the sounds of the river. This condo is centrally located and was a 2 minute drive to downtown and a great home spot for our daytime adventures to Mesa Verde and Vallecito Lake. It was nice that there was underground parking becuase sometimes during the day the street level parking was tight. Extremely well stocked. Our favorite was the utility drawer. It had everything ours does at home, without all the jumk. We enjoyed our stay so much we are going to come back to Durango next spring and we are definitely staying at this condo! Great Property!
