About this property
Black Bear Townhome (End Unit) across from Purgatory - Views - Ski Shuttle
Black Bear (Unit 78) is located directly across the highway from Purgatory Resort and is a perfect base for your vacation no matter the season. Our townhome features 3 bedrooms & 2.5 bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen that opens to the living space and dining area, giving you plenty of space to relax.
The townhome home is part of the resort so you have access to free on-demand shuttle service to Purgatory Ski Resort but since it is across the highway you have the privacy and additional space a townhome affords (it’s part of a duplex). At 8,900 feet of elevation, the home is a gateway to an amazing winter playground and also serves as the perfect summer retreat, with a million acres of national forest land at your doorstep offering all your favorite mountain activities. It’s only a 2 minute walk to Twilight Lake for fishing and paddle boarding and as well as Purgatory Flats Trailhead, one of the most scenic hikes in the San Juan Mountains. Horseback riding, jeep trails, an alpine slide, epic mountain biking and the Purgatory Inferno Mountain Coaster are all less than 5 minutes from the home.
Bed Configuration (All bedrooms are on the 2nd floor and all bedrooms have TVs): Master Bedroom - California King Bed with Ensuite Bath 2nd Bedroom - King Bed 3rd bedroom - Queen Bed
The townhome is not pet friendly - please do not bring pets.
For an optional 4% resort fee, you will have access to the Durango Mountain Club (open year round) which includes an outdoor heated pool with slide, outdoor hot tub and workout facility. When booking, just advise if you would like us to add the additional 4% resort fee.

Unit was very clean, relatively new, shuttle service across the street to Purgatory was effortless and quick. Exceedingly better in every way to anything in Cascade Village at any price. My family of 4 was highly satisfied.

Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re so glad to hear the unit exceeded your expectations and that the cleanliness, shuttle service, and overall experience stood out for your family. It’s wonderful to know your family of four was highly satisfied—we’d love to host you again anytime!
This condo was perfect for our last minute Christmas getaway! To our surprise, we found this home in Blackbear available during Christmas ski vacation. located directly across from Purgatory resort, it was an easy walk across the street to the resort. The unit was fully stocked with all the comforts of home. It's a beautifully decorated unit with nicely appointed furniture. To my surprise, the garage was huge, allowing us to park our 1/2 ton pickup inside. The condo itself has plenty of space for a large family. We would defiantly stay here again but would recommend bringing humidifiers for those coming from a humid region of the country.
