This was a great place to stay for our train ride in Durango. It was about a 35 min drive in but not a bad drive at all. It was a nice place to relax and enjoy nature on our off time!

We had a great stay in Bayfield. Very nice house, clean, and all the little things that make the get away. The house was outstanding and felt very secluded. We cooked a lot while we were there and had everything you would need, and that's a big deal for me. Check in was simple and communications with the owner were great.

Wonderful experience at this VRBO gem in Bayfield! Very clean and well stocked, check in and checkout processes were super easy. Host (Jan) was attentive to our needs and easy to communicate with. First night we had 4-5 deer in the backyard not 10 feet away from us, just beautiful.

Amazing winter vacation

Beautiful log cabin in the Colorado Mountains. The cabin has everything you need for a relaxing vacation. We even went looking for land to build a cabin just like this one. We had the best experience with this rental.
