Condo exceeded expectations. Perfect for our family of 4. Plenty of room for everyone, kids absolutely loved the spiral staircase and loft. Was nice after being on the road to have the kitchen to cook meals as well as the washer/dryer. Took the kids to the pool and spa at the main resort every evening. Saw group of deer one evening on our way up from the main resort. Property was convenient to everything that we had planned to do. Looking forward to our next trip up and we would definitely stay again!

Home away from home

This was a wonderful place to spend our five days in the Durango area. We thoroughly enjoyed coming "home" after a day of activities. Not as far from Durango as the properties at Durango Mountain Resort or Cascade Village, it was far enough away to be peaceful, serene and yet still has dozens of amenties. Parking was close to the condo and very convenient. The pool area and exercise facility at the Lodge were well equipped, clean and beautiful. We don't play golf, but the course looked wonderful and we could see some of it from the deck. The condo has all the comforts necessary for a homey feel and allowed us to relax. The kitchen is well equipped with all necessary items for anything you want to cook... microwave, stove, dishwasher, large fridge, lots of dishes and utensils, etc. The beds were very comfortable; lots of windows to open for that mountain air; easy access to the bedrooms from the downstairs living area; and, wow, a washer and dryer too!! Also the ambience of the gas fireplace and the outside deck were the icing on the cake. Thanks, Byron, we definitely enjoyed our stay and appreciated your promptness with any help or questions that we had during our visit.

We spent 5 nights in September, 2011 at this wonderful condo. Of all the condos we have stayed in, this one was the absolute best. Everything about the condo is exactly as described by the owner. The view from the deck of the sun rising over the mountains is almost as beautiful as the full moon rising over the mountain. Thanks Byron for sharing your vacation home with us.

Perfect getaway

Can't recommend this condo enough, our small family (of 4) had a great cozy time over Thanksgiving. The electric fireplace and stunning views were just part of it's appeal. The place was clean and modern with abdundant kitchen supplies. Having a washer/dryer was a bonus! Location was so peaceful and a perfect distance to the city (durango) and to the mountain. Having 4 wheel drive helps to get to this particular condo as the roads were icy at the time and there is a steep hill. Only suggestion is a ?deadbolt/child lock on front door - found my young toddlers outside by themselves as the front door is easy to open. Owner was a pleasure to deal with. Thanks! Will definately be back.

Very nice, clean, fantastic views out the windows. 20 min. from Durango, 10 min. from Durango Mountain Resort (Purgatory ski resort). I'm not a golfer, but the course looked very nice and hardly used. Six of us (wife, 2 elem. school kids, 80-year-old parents, and me) were plenty comfortable; more than 4 adults might have been a little crowded. I'd like to stay here again.

The condo and its location were absolutely what we were looking for. Had a very good location, well furnished and scenery was great. It was so nice to be able to go sightseeing during the day and have such a lovely place to come back to at the end of the day. Would definitely recommend this place to our family & friends. It was great.

We enjoyed our stay at the Glacier Club Resort. We found the condo to be a home away from home. The master bed provided for wonderful nights of rest. The balcony gave us many birds to sit and watch for hours. I would HIGHLY recommend this place and we will stay again. The drive over to Silverton was outstanding.

We stayed here last summer (2007) and it was perfect. The condo was really nice and the washer/dryer was a bonus. We had so much fun just sitting on the back deck in the morning and watching the birds. Having access to the indoor pool at the resort was a bonus w/ a 4-year old. Great place!

Very nice unit. Well equipped. The owners are very professional and pleasant to work with. One word of caution is that while the the resort does a fair job at clearing the roads after a big snow, this unit may require chains or snow tires to access it. However, it is not far from the amenities listed. Our family had a great stay!
