Wonderful!
We loved our stay here! The setting is very peaceful with beautiful views off the front deck. The house was very clean and very well outfitted, it feels more like you are staying at a friend's home instead of a rental. No A/C but even during our stay through a pretty hot stretch in July it cooled off nicely at night. We loved sleeping with the windows open and waking up to the sounds of the birds in the trees all around you!

Another Wonderful Stay
Our 6th year at the Heavenly Daze cabin and it only gets better. Cannot recommend this rental company and their fabulous vacation homes enough!
House was super clean and comfy. Great setting and very private. Definitely need 4 wheel drive in the winter if it snows/freezes. The nugget is right across the neighborhood and has great food. Also, super close to Purgatory. Great place to stay if you're skiing

Nice Getaway Place
The home was decorated beautifully and clean. Good location near Purgatory Ski Area and Nordic Center. Sadly, not enough snow for Nordic Center to be open. Snow-showed higher at Molas Pass near 11,000 feet. Central to both Durango and Silverton (30-minute drive or so each way). Hot tub was lovely to sit in and look at the beautiful snowy trees and blue sky. Fireplace with wood to burn was a treat!
Heavenly Daze was perfect for our family. Great place, close to Purgatory, and not far from downtown Durango. Jen and Lorie at the management company are super helpful. 4x4 is absolutely necessary to get to the house. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

Glad to have you and so pleased you enjoyed our Heavenly Daze Cabin! We'd welcome you back anytime.
The location of the house is awesome. Very private in the middle of a beautiful forrest. The deck off the back is the star of this home. Beautiful views. Great place for morning coffee and evening cocktails. The magnificent star gazing at night completes the day.

beautiful setting
On our recent ski trip to Purgatory my daughter and I loved our stay.
We had my best friend, his wife, and two kids join us for the fun in the snow and everyone thought the place was beautiful. The hot tub was a awesome hit that was used every day after skiing.

Beautiful and peaceful
Home was very clean and well appointed. Bright and open with gorgeous views , very private and quiet. The deck is spacious and relaxing in the hot tub under the stars was truly peaceful and restorative. A great escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Thank you for being or guests and glad that you enjoyed our Heavenly Daze cabin as much as we do! Hope to have you back.
The property was in excellent shape and we were pleasantly surprised by how nicely decorated the house was. The pictures did not do it justice. The views from the deck were lovely. We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and found our time there very relaxing. We love the area around Lake Purgatory and the Hermosa Cliffs. Thank you sharing your vacation home with our family.

Another Lovely Stay
The Team at DCV never disappoint when it comes to booking a beautiful stay in Durango. The Heavenly Daze cabin, as always, was cozy and felt like home. The kitchen remodel was a bonus! Fully stocked with basic amenities and comfy furniture - great for a week of relaxation disconnect from the real world. We'll be life long guests of Durango as long as DCV is around.

A Truly relaxing mountain getaway
We stayed here for a ski vacation- 2 families and Grandma and Grandpa. It was very comfortable for the 12 of us. Well furnished, fully stocked kitchen, wonderful patio and hottub. Definitely need 4 WD to get to it in the snow but we had no trouble with the 2 vehicles we drove from Texas. We will stay here again in the future if it is available.

We had an absolutely incredible stay! The chalet was like a dream — surrounded by mountains and forest, with the perfect cozy atmosphere. The hot tub was amazing, and we loved enjoying the fireplace in the evenings. Everything we needed was there, and the comfort was exceptional.
We are a French family visiting Colorado, and this location was ideal for discovering Durango, Ouray, Silverton, and so many other beautiful places. Having a garage to park our car was also a real plus. The beds upstairs were super comfortable — truly perfect for a relaxing stay.
We will keep wonderful memories of this trip for life. Thank you for such an unforgettable experience!
We loved this property. Clean, spacious and very comfortable - with a beautiful view. More than enough room for 2 teenagers! Would love to come back! Plenty to do in Purgatory and Durango. Cascade Falls hiking trail is a 15 minute drive from the property - the hiking trail has tons of creeks and streams - a perfect way to spend the day.
