Elk Hollow Retreat

Guest: Tonya (Albuquerque)
Date of Stay: 10/07/10 Review Submitted: 11/13/10

Tim, Jaime & family, Thank you for sharing your home with us. We had a wonderful time. It is so peaceful and beautiful there.This was our first trip to Durango and it exceeded our expectations. The dog run was a major plus! The home was very clean and had everything we needed, including a highchair for our toddler.This is a great place to stay for a family with small children and dogs. We plan on staying here again on our next trip to Durango. We would recomend Elk Hollow for any family wanting a nice vacation!! Tonya & Family Albuquerque, NM

Exceeded All Expectations

Guest: Family of 6 (+2 dogs) (Golden, CO)
Date of Stay: 07/30/10 Review Submitted: 08/30/10

If you make plans to stay here you will not be disappointed! We loved our stay. House is very comfortable and well appointed, the owners have thought of everything that you will need! Our kids had a blast, dogs had a blast, and we were lucky enough to have resident deer, coyotes, and even elk pass through the area outside the house (don't forget your binoculars if you enjoy watching wildlife). This was a terrific launching place for adventures into Durango, fishing the San Juan, riding the railroad to Silverton, hiking a fourteener nearby, and taking a few days to relax and enjoy the clean mountain air. Hope we get to come back soon!

Don't miss out on EHR!

Guest: Steve (Albuquerque)
Date of Stay: 08/12/10 Review Submitted: 08/23/10

I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone I know! The accomodations were everything promised and more. Beautiful home, beautiful scenery, far enough away from town to feel secluded, but close enough for convenience. We had a delightful stay taking in the views, visiting the nearby reservoirs for fishing, and our 3 canine companions had a delightful time as well! As i said, Don't miss out!

Flawless

Guest: Joan B. (-)
Date of Stay: 07/29/10 Review Submitted: 08/22/10

Our stay at Elk Hollow was flawless! The house is laid out perfectly...the wall of windows (where we watched deer and chipmunks play) was wonderful...the dog run much appreciated by our lab Hudson...the wrap-around porch (where we gazed at more stars than I knew were up there) was so peaceful. Just great all the way around. The owners are also wonderful people and they really do make the house like a home away from home. There was nothing we needed that wasn’t already there. We’ve fallen in love with Durango and hope to make it back to Elk Hollow as soon as we can. Joan B. Charleston, SC

A wonderful vacation

Guest: Steve V. (-)
Date of Stay: 06/22/10 Review Submitted: 07/29/10

Our stay for 10 nights at the end of June was just about perfect. The house and views are exactly as described and depicted. Pretty much everything is stocked for a convenient, comfortable vacation, including ample towels, sheets and blankets and a very well-equipped kitchen. Just a couple of trips to the grocery store and we felt moved in and right at home. The house is perfect for kids and dogs. Our 8-year old keeps asking when we can go back, and if our dog could talk, he'd be requesting the same thing. Elk Hollow is amazing for a city dog—a dog door leading to a huge fenced-in dog run with plenty of chipmunks to chase. We hope to be able to experience Elk Hollow in the winter months next time. Thanks, Jaime and Tim, for a wonderful vacation away from the hubbub of urban life.

Everything about Elk Hollow was Perfect

Guest: Penny L. (-)
Date of Stay: 06/07/10 Review Submitted: 07/29/10

The first thing we did when we walked into the cabin was stand in front of the huge windows and soaked in the view. Everything about Elk Hollow was perfect. The children checked out the vegetable garden everyday, smelled the lilacs, played games and had a great time. The adults talked, relaxed, cooked and ate and ate and ate. The dog sniffed and ran until he was exhausted. There was plenty for everyone to do in a beautiful setting. We'll be back.

Unbelievable!

Guest: Ressa (-)
Date of Stay: 03/06/10 Review Submitted: 03/27/10

Winter wonderland !!!! Unbelievable !!!! My family & I went on our family vacation to Elk Hollow Retreat. All I can say is "HEAVEN ON EARTH." We took 6 adults & my 2 grandkids and had room for more. This is the most unbelievable place we had ever seen in our lives. Jaime,Tim & their boys are some of the most wonderful people. They made us feel right at home. We have already made plans to go back in 2011. We can't hardly wait. If anyone is thinking about going here , you really need to just go, you will not regret one thing. Thank you for sharing your house and family with us. May God bless your year. We will see you in 2011 by God's grace.
