Nestled in the San Juan National Forest, one of the most peaceful and beautiful places on earth, is Durango Mountain Resort, a community devoted to an active outdoor lifestyle. At an elevation of 9,000 ft. and above the town of Durango, the air is crisp, the stars are close and the views are breathtaking.
A truly charming place that is best shared with family and friends.
The BraeMark Lodge (formally the Converse Family Lodge) has received an extreme makeover. This end unit has 3 elevations of windows presenting majestic views. Our home is a Ski In/Ski Out condominium off the "Lower Hades" (Black - most challenging) and the "Yellow Brick Road" (Green - easiest) runs of Purgatory Mountain. With only a few steps through an open yard in which the kids can play, you are either skiing/walking down Yellow Brick Road to the Village or to the new high-speed six-Pak chair lift. You will treasure the splendor of the sunny days and fluffy powder skiing (260" annual average). At the day’s end, you can ski right up to the slope-side entry; step out of your gear and into your home away from home.
This condo offers a rustic charm and sense of serenity that you will want to experience again and again. Whether relaxing in front of the natural stone fireplace and enjoying the magnificent views or rejuvenating your tired muscles in the 2 person airjet jacuzzi tub, you can’t help feeling pampered. Approximately 2100 square feet consisting of a large, open kitchen, living and dining area, four bedrooms and three full and one half baths provide plenty of space to sleep and entertain a group of ten. Furnished with cooking, drinking and eating ware, clean linens, and your soaps and paper products, secluded, yet convenient, comfortable and luxurious, we think our home is one of the best values on the mountain.
Come stay with us at the BraeMark Lodge where you are sure to be comfortable and cozy in your home away from home plus have the added convenience of being located to all the that resort, downtown Durango and the surrounding areas offer!

Was so pleased with everything in the Condo. It is absolutely beautiful. We skied for 4 days and was so nice to be able to stop by the condo to eat our lunch and/or rest. Had our 6 month old grandson and his parents with us so it made things really easy to take turns keeping the baby. What a wonderful laundry room!! Would definitely stay again. Some day maybe someone will make an easier access trail to the slope even though it is doable as is. Always looking for more convenience.

My family ( 4 couples, and one toddler) had a wonderful time! We were able to ski in and out from back door. The condo is beautiful, and very comfortable. Clean and well maintained. We would come back, and are talking about a summertime vacation. Very happy we stayed there!

We really enjoyed our stay in your beautiful condo! Beautifully decorated and furnished! Just as advertised, with everything we needed, including a wonderful laundry room!! Would definitely stay again when we come back to Durango. Will definitely recommend it to our friends and family, too! We spent a day at Mesa Verde and another day driving the San Juan skyway, with visits to Telluride and Ouray. We also took the Durango-Silverton train and saw a black bear (from the safety of the train, thank goodness!). What a beautiful area and a fabulous condo. Thanks again!

This condo was amazing! We enjoyed a perfect week long summer vacation at it. It is very comfortable inside and out. The condo is equipped with everything you need to make your vacation a relaxing one. It is as nice as the pictures portray it to be with many luxury touches. I hope we can come back and stay at it during ski season. The resort and surrounding area offer many activities that are family friendly.

The condo was beautifully remodeled and everything the pictures and description say it is. We couldn't have asked for better accomodations for our trip to Durango. 5 adults and 4 kids had more than enough room in this great condo. The double bunk beds were perfect for the kids

Another great vacation at the condo!!!

This was our second year staying at this beautiful condo. It is so spacious, clean, and comfortable. We have four boys in our group ranging from age 4 to 8. They love getting to stay in their own room and playing hide and go seek. The ski in and out location is so convenient. We met at the condo daily for our lunchbreak from skiing, and were able to save money by not eating in the lodge! The area behind the condo is a winter playground for snowball fights, sledding and building snowmen. Our families had a blast spending time together playing games and watching movies by the warm crackling fire. I can't say enough about how great this place is. We look forward to many more memories at this condo in the future!!

This is my 9 year old grandson's review of staying at BraeMark Lodge. "This was the nicest place ever! the fire was warm, the back yard was nice to do snowball fights and sledding. In the trees the squirrels and birds were spectacular! Also, the furniture was comfortable. I enjoyed it and I wish to come back here every single year and to live in this house one day!!!" This was my family's 4th trip to stay in this beautiful condo but he was a little young in 2007 to remember all of it -- but -- it made a lasting impression on a 9 year old this year. He has a 10 year old sister who enjoyed it every bit as much as he did. We had a hard time getting them to come in from "snow ball fighting and sledding" in the back yard. Again, let me say that I truly recommend this condo. You will not be disappointed!!!

My parents and my four children stayed in this condo. It was beautiful and very convenient. I loved sitting by the big windows watching the skier/snowboarders come down the mountain. Families with all ages would enjoy staying here. It is also equipted with everything you will need.

This was our second stay in this condo. The first was before the renovation and the second was the week before Christmas. What a lovely surprise. The renovations were beautiful and we had a wonderful time. The condo is everything you could wish for and then some. It is equipped with everything you could possibly need to cook and feel right at home. We look forward to going again next year!!!

The amount of snow was disappointing but was made up for by the beautiful accomodations. The kitchen was perfect for cooking and easy to clean. Lots of hot water, comfortable beds, beautiful views and woodburning fireplace made relaxing after skiing a real treat.
