We had a wonderful stay at the mountaintop cabin. The views were stunning, the kitchen was well stocked, and the house itself was comfortable, clean, and welcoming. We especially enjoyed the front porch and the separate deck. Vita, are host, was friendly and extremely helpful. Loved every minute!

Property lacked some of the amenities that were described in listing as well as identified the property with three bedrooms which was a stretch since two twin beds occupied the loft / walkway into the second actual bedroom

The views were definitely the best part of this property. Loved hanging out on the porch in the comfy swing. While we love the mountain air, I wish we'd known there was no AC.

Beautiful cabin located in the mountains. Very quiet and peaceful. The only drawback was that there is no air-conditioning in the cabin and the week that we were staying in Durango was definitely hotter than what we expected. However would highly recommend this cabin and location as it was just a short 15min drive to Durango/Purgatory and Silverton. Vita our host was very sweet and accommodated us well!

Perfect for our trip!

This cabin is an amazing place to stay. We planned a last minute ski trip this spring and somehow the cabin was available when we were booking last minute. The views from the deck outside are incredible overlooking the valley and surrounding mountains. The cabin itself was more than we could have asked for and gave us a great place to continue enjoying our trip while we were off of the mountain. We would absolutely stay here again!

Excellent stay with gorgeous views of the mountain

We stayed a week with our family and this was the perfect location. The cabin has views from high in the mountains of Durango and is a short distance from town. There is a porch swing and a deck that faces the mountains, the views are spectacular. Also not too far to travel to Purgatory, Silverton or Telluride for the day. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The host was easy to communicate with and very kind. We would definitely recommend and will be staying again in the future!

Cabin in the woods!

So cute and everything we needed. My husband asked if I could find a cabin in the woods. I couldn't have found a more perfect choice. We loved everything about it.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Great views, but the rest of the property didn’t live up to the price. The grounds are overgrown, and you can’t even reach the patio without walking through knee-high thistles. Inside, there aren’t enough fans for summer guests and there’s no air conditioning, which makes it uncomfortable in warmer weather. To make matters worse, the fireplace pilot has to remain on, which adds even more heat and makes the cabin feel unnecessarily warm during the summer. We also noticed the windowsills were filled with dead flies that clearly hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time. Overall, it felt neglected, and we wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

Cabin was super clean and peaceful. Two windows won’t close and two windows won’t open got really hot in afternoon and took a long time to cool off. No ac. I would stay again but not in the summer.

The listing for this property undersells it!

My family and I stayed here for 4 days and we were pleasantly surprised it was even better than described and shown. It had an expansive deck with beautiful views and furniture to sit on that wasn't in the listing. We actually bought camp chairs because we weren't sure if they would have anywhere to sit. They also had an amazing porch swing that wasn't described, that was fabulous! The only cons were that the kitchen equipment was too basic and not practical to actually cook meals. The dishes, coffee pot, silverware etc. were pretty low end. Some things are outdated but the logs are beautiful and cozy. Definitely wished there was air though! It was REALLY HOT! Also, the drive up is no joke, especially if you arent from the mountains. Owner was great and we could even bring our dog! I would stay here again for sure. They also have a vintage Pac Man game that was fun to play. Very close to town as well and you can even see the iconic Silverton/Durango train!

2 night stopover on our family Colorado adventure

Our family is spending 10 days exploring some of the highlights Colorado has to offer. We stayed in Hermosa for two nights. Went white water rafting and took the Durango to Silverton train. Highly recommend both of those adventures. The cabin’s view was way undersold in my opinion. As soon as we parked in the driveway, we were awestruck!!! Breathtaking views and peaceful. The beds were the comfiest we’ve slept on so far on our adventure. We woke up refreshed every morning. My only suggestions would be to have an information binder about the area. We’ve come to enjoy looking through these in all the years of traveling and renting cabins. And also-the beds were amazing but the pillows left a lot to be desired. Just had to double up and we were fine. Would definitely recommend this cabin to everyone and we hope to return someday!
