About this property

Garden Home, private and spacious with hot tub, only 5 minutes to city center

The Garden Home is only 4miles north of downtown Durango and has a park like setting on an acre of land. This home is a wonderful relaxing getaway with the exterior features such as a large deck, HOT TUB, BBQ grill, and fire pit, all for personal use. The main bedroom and bathroom are on the first floor and a spiral staircase leads to 2 additional bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor. It's the perfect home for any season, as you can enjoy the flowerbeds in the summer or snuggle up by the fireplace in the winter. Home has central AC for those hot summer months and a wood burning stove stocked with wood for you during the winter months. Bonus is that it's only 20min to Purgatory! The host occasionally stays next door.

I loved this property. It is close to town but not in town. The place is so charming. We are thinking about using it again next year.

Great spot, well-equipped for guests!

My sister and I had a lovely time staying here for several nights while visiting my adult son in Durango. The kitchen is particularly well-stocked with cookware, and we had a few people over for dinner one night and were able to make and serve a great meal. Not always possible with the kitchens in many VRBOs! It was lovely to have the hot tub as well, and don't miss the spectacular trail that goes up behind the house! What a great stay. I will try to book this home again next time I visit Durango!

Birthday Girls Weekend

It was comfortable and had everything we needed on site. My bed was comfortable (downstairs); however, a friend thought the beds upstairs were not. That may be all personal preferences. The stairs are a little tricky for older people and luggage.

The home was clean and spacious for our family of 4, exactly as described. The backyard is beautiful for an early morning coffee or late evening relaxation. The hot tub, just steps from the main bedroom is a perfect way to end each day. The home is conveniently located to downtown and the train, nothing in town is much more than 10 minutes away. There are many great hiking trailheads within 15 minutes for varying levels of challenges.Overall, the home was fantastic. We did have a couple of minor issues, but when I reached out to Marley, she responded quickly and helped us out by going above & beyond! The hosts were very accommodating to our needs and were flexible when we left on our last day. Highly recommended; we'll be back next time we stay in Durango!

Amazing house

This house was exactly what we were looking for our weekend wedding stay. Clean, convenient, quiet. Had only one minor issue with getting into the house and the host was responsive and rectified it immediately. Couldn't recommend the house and host more, and bookmarked for future stays.

Nice “home” environment

This house made my family feel right at home. Very comfortable surroundings with a hot tub we enjoyed! Close to all activities in and around Durango. Be advised the spiral staircase to second floor makes lugging suitcases a bit tricky.

Great stay north of Durango!

We had a wonderful time staying here. The house was clean, the host was considerate, and the garden was beautiful! It was easy to find and instructions were clear. Only 10 min to downtown, and 2 minutes to Oxbow park, we enjoyed the city and nature. So nice to walk near the river. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

This was a fantastic house. The gardens were beautiful and the house felt like a home. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchen tools and basic spices. We wish we'd had more time to enjoy the relaxing house and gardens during our stay.
