About this property

Cozy Cottage perfect for a couple or small family

This cozy cottage is just minutes from downtown Durango as well as two miles from Lake Nighthorse which is a lovely large recreational lake. The well appointed layout of this newly remodel space has a large downstairs bedroom, a gabled upstairs area that can accommodate an extra guest or can be used as an office. The kitchen opens up into a spacious dining area as well as a living room with a large screen TV and a sleeper sofa. If you are looking to sit outside and enjoy the sunset dipping behind the mountains you have a sun room to enjoy, if it is chilly out, or your own private side patio. Enjoy all Durango has to offer with hiking, paddle boarding, mountain biking and whitewater all within 10 minutes of this great setting.
This is a classic mother-in-law space that shares a wall with the main house.

Kristin and Shawn have a beautiful home and vacation rental that is very comfortable and relaxing. We regularly saw deer in the back yard. They live in an area where it is safe to walk along the road with little traffic. We had a great time there. Danny and Jonna.

Wonderful getaway

This property was perfect for our getaway to Durango. Kristin was around to answer any of our questions. This is a quaint little cottage that offered all of the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay. A little off the beaten path of the downtown area, but we appreciated the quiet, peaceful setting.

It was everything they said it was. Very clean and quiet. The location was out abit but not bad although coming home in the dark one night was alittle difficult because of the road signs were small and I wasn’t familiar with the roads. I would highly recommend this property.
