Loved this home in Durango! It was the perfect location for us to do all of our days trips from and very close to downtown. The beds were comfy and the living spaces were comfy. What more could you ask for after a day and night out and about. We would definitely stay here again. Loved having the deer lounging in the yard too.

Only 3 min drive, 20 min walk back to town, but out enough where it is very quiet. Kitchen is small but we easily cooked att meals. Stainless cookware was appreciated. There are lounge chairs in the shed to lay out if you want. It is up a short gravel drive, but has parking in front of house as well as side. Good value for money.

Very nice place that had exactly what we needed for a short ski trip. Easy to get around town from here with some very good views. Bathroom could have been a little cleaner but overall happy with the place

Home was clean, comfortable, and in a great location. We had a lovely stay overall. Slight challenge finding the property after dark, as it was a little difficult to locate from the road. Better signage would be helpful.The bedrooms were comfortable, and while the kitchen is on the smaller side, it had most of what we needed for our stay. The complimentary dish soap packets were a thoughtful touch. A small packet of laundry detergent would have been nice as well, though that's certainly above and beyond what most rentals provide.We especially enjoyed the gas fireplace in the living room, and it was nice to have air conditioning available.The keypad lock was not working during our stay, so we needed to use the key from the lockbox. However, the property managers notified us in advance and provided clear instructions, which we appreciated.The sunsets were beautiful, and we enjoyed seeing deer visit the property. It was also nice to have a grassy yard for our toddler to play in. Families with young children may want to be aware that the sprinklers ran during the mornings and the above-ground sprinkler equipment remained set up in the yard, so we found ourselves frequently redirecting our son away from it. The steep slope at the front of the property also required close supervision with a toddler. In addition, the backyard had quite a few thistles during our stay, which made it unusable for us.Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and would happily recommend the property.

Very clean, it was really nice for our family of 5. We did get to see some mule deer roaming around the yard, and bear tracks. Which were pretty awesome. The amenities were nice, easy to get location from all of the shops and local places.

Clean and comfy property - good location, semi secluded.Great place to watch the sunset. WiFi a little slow, king bed could use a new mattress, but overall a really nice place to stay. Great spot to watch sunsets over the mountains…

Great place to stay in Durango

This was a perfect place for my family of four to use as a home base for our trip to Durango. The property was exactly as shown in the listing and central to all our excursions.

Nice Small House

House was very clean and well stocked. It is close to Fort Lewis College, but a little outside of walking distance to access downtown. The only limitation is that there is just one bath (we had 4 adults), but that was very clear from the listing. I would stay here again.

It's an OK property, not premier. Some nice views and close to downtown. However, the property has issues. Most of them are brought up in past reviews. But they go unfixed. With some time, effort, and money. You could make this a better place. And what's with the huge cleaning fee???!
