Lovely, fully remodeled getaway near Purgatory with fireplace, balcony, & patio

Escape the pace of everyday life and settle into a peaceful mountain retreat conveniently located between Durango and Purgatory Resort. Surrounded by the natural beauty of Southwest Colorado, this welcoming home puts year-round adventure within easy reach, whether you're visiting to ski fresh powder, hike and bike the surrounding trails, explore the Durango area, or simply enjoy a quiet getaway in the mountains.

When you're ready to relax, the comfortable living space provides an inviting place to gather after a day outdoors. The newly remodeled fireplace creates a warm focal point for the room, while Roku TVs throughout the home make it easy to stream your favorite shows and movies. Settle in for a quiet evening by the fire, gather for a movie, or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of your mountain home base.

The well-equipped kitchen makes preparing meals at home easy, with an electric stovetop, oven, retro-style refrigerator, and Keurig coffee maker. Start the morning with a cup of coffee and breakfast before heading out for the day, then gather together in the dining area for dinner or a casual meal after your adventures. A wine cooler provides a convenient place to keep your favorite bottles chilled for a relaxing evening.

Both bathrooms have been completely remodeled with new showers and tile, adding a fresh, updated feel to the home. After a day spent hiking, skiing, or exploring the surrounding mountains, enjoy a refreshing shower before settling in for the evening.

The location makes it easy to experience the best of the area in every season. Purgatory Resort is nearby for skiing and snowboarding during the winter, while the warmer months bring opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and sightseeing throughout the San Juan Mountains. Head into Durango to explore local restaurants, shops, and attractions, or simply spend the day discovering the scenic mountain communities and outdoor spaces nearby.

Clean and Comfortable

This was a very pleasant and clean place to stay. Had everything we needed, although extra towels would have been nice. Location was halfway between Durango and Purgatory, which was perfect for us and our needs during our stay. Communication was effective with the property manager. Would stay here again!

Excellent Home away from Home

First is a quiet places outside the main parts of town. Great for relaxing morning in the refreshing mountain air. Second is we had all the functionality as if we had our own home with us. Third loved the cozy feel of the space. Forth all our places we visit in Ouray Silverton and Durango were withen a scenic drive of the mountains and rivers. Love this place and its location.

Hermosa condo was great!

We loved being a few miles north of Durango. It was a peaceful setting even though it’s close to the highway. We didn’t hear any road noise inside. Nicely decorated/updated and very comfortable. Bedroom ACs & comfy beds made for deep sleeping. Kitchen had all the dishes & appliances we wanted to make meals. We’d love to stay again!

Cozy Place in the Pines

Cutest little place with everything you’d like! Two bedrooms with two bathrooms- all very nice! Kitchen is equipped with anything you’d need. The fireplace was amazing, and we even enjoyed playing the games in the cabinet. We loved the front and back porches!

This was a nice rental, perfect for my son and I on our ski trip. We ran into an issue with the water but the agent was very helpful and responsive. The kitchen is well stocked and it a quiet location.

Great place to make your home base right outside of downtown Durango!

We loved staying at this place- it is the perfect size for 4 people and we never felt cramped. Very close to downtown Durango- about a 20 minute drive- but away from the hustle and bustle- nice and quiet. The place itself was impeccable- very clean and recently very tastefully remodeled. In between downtown Durango and Purgatory this is a great home base to enjoy everything Durango has to offer and do also do some skiing at Purgatory in the winter. We would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again when in the Durango area!

Great place!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Roomy and comfortable. The place was clean (except for the dirty dishes in the cabinets), the kitchen was stocked, and the location was great. We did buy our own water because the tap water tasted funny (maybe that’s a Durango thing?). We were 20 min from town and 20 minutes from Purg and the Nordic center. Hope to come back again!
Response from VrboOwner on 20 Jun 2023
Thank you for your review, Britton. It was our pleasure hosting you and we are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. We apologize for the dirty dishes in the cabinets. Sometimes guests do their own dishes and put away subpar clean. We have asked our housekeeping team to please double-check all the dishes in the cabinets even if they are put away appearing clean. We are happy you enjoyed the rest of your stay and we look forward to hosting you again!

Quiet Retreat

Clean condo with private porch and balcony for morning coffee. Comfortable bed. Quiet air conditioning unit and fan for refreshing air circulation - it's the little things that make a difference. Convenient location to town, Honeyville, Durango Hot Springs and other activities. Just enough out of town for quiet but close enough for quick drive in for dinner, etc.
