Thank you so much for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear you had an awesome stay and enjoyed the beauty of the cabin, especially the wildlife sightings from the deck. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
Stay was excellent. House was exactly as listed and host was accommodating. Beautiful property, comfortable furniture and modern tech. Saw mule deer each day in front yard.
This is one of the best vacation rentals we’ve had - lovely, quiet setting yet close enough to town, very clean and neat, very functional for our needs. Only one minor issue for us was dialing in the radiant heat system zones at night but we were ultimately able to get things comfortable. Even with this minor issue, it was a great stay.

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear this was one of your best vacation rental experiences and that you enjoyed the peaceful setting, cleanliness, and functionality of the home. We appreciate you mentioning the radiant heat adjustment-there are 5 thermostats in the home that control the heat. We are glad to hear that you were able to get them to a comfortable temperature! We hope to welcome you back for another stay soon!

Wonderful Cabin
Beautiful cabin that is updated with great features and plenty of space. It has everything you need inside from games and puzzles to kitchenware to plenty of towels and pillows. The hosts are very helpful and responsive. The location is perfect because you feel like you are out of the wilderness, but yet still so close to everything to do in Durango. Our group had adults and kids, and they place was great for all of us. Would love to stay here again!!
Very nice log cabin, well appointed in a wquiet location near town. The cabin does not have A/C and it can get warm on August days but it cools off at night.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the cabin and its peaceful location. We appreciate you noting that while there’s no A/C, the cooler nights help. We hope to welcome you back in the future!
Beautiful house, clean and well equipped with comfortable beds and good showers. Every window offered a great view. My Texan family learned that all weather tires are not as good in offering grip on snow as winter tires do… but the roads are very drivable.

Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed the house, its comfortable amenities and beautiful views. It is always important to be prepared with the proper vehicle/snow tires when coming to the mountains of Colorado in the winter months. Thank you for mentioning it for future guests. We'd welcome you back anytime.
