Amazing! Incredible location directly on the river, adorable, very well appointed cabin, comfortable, cozy, clean. 20 - 30 minutes from downtown but an easy drive and we LOVED the location. We did one incredible gravel ride from the front door and another around Vallecito reservoir.
The location of this cabin is pretty amazing. It sits right on the river and it’s beautiful. The cabin is very clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.
We had a wonderful time staying along the river. The house is nicely appointed with plenty of games @ puzzles for our one rainy day. Fish were caught, meals were shared and relaxation was had in abundance. We’ll definitely return for a longer stay.
We celebrated our 22nd Anniversary at this beautiful cabin! It was perfect and we enjoyed the river running through the backyard. Cabin was very clean. Great location from town. Can’t wait to come back and enjoy this place again.
This is the third year in a row I’ve stayed at this cabin. The first year was just to visit Durango then I started riding in the Iron Horse bike race. I plan on staying at this place every year moving forward. The creek behind the place is awesome and it’s only twenty minutes or so from Durango.
All I hoped it would be. Had been looking forward to our visit the entire winter and did not disappoint. Spent each morning with my coffee out looking at the sunshine on the rushing water. Being greeted by an ouzel, crane or duck flying the river. A momma duck with 8 babies swimming upstream near the shore was a treat! They all fought the rapids and made it to the destination. Bed was comfortable and just the right amount of bedding to keep window cracked to hear the water. Instant hot water for shower :- Was a great getaway to relax.
We really enjoyed staying at this cozy cabin by the river. It was great to come back each night, light a fire to warm up, and make dinner. Kids loved having their own "tiny house" to stay in. Everything was comfortable and as described.
We took a vacation with my grandparents. We all enjoyed the cabin overall. The best part is the river and peacefulness of the whole place! Cabin was very cozy, hot water, and stocked well!! We had a glorious week with family!
We loved our stay at the cozy cabin. There were a couple things that were in disrepair, otherwise this would’ve been a five star rating. One of the outdoor tables was not useable due to being broken. Another chair had a broken arm. Almost all of the solar lights were broken and portions missing altogether. Would’ve loved these because we did spend time outdoors after hours. The house was furnished very comfortably - TONS of linens which we loved. The dishwasher, washer and dryer were super helpful. Lots of dishes and glassware and many kitchen amenities like foil, seasonings, etc. Much appreciated. The river was the best. We spent many hours outside with our family. The house is not new and has little quirks to be expected with a small space, but the “boys house” was extra special and they loved having their own hide out. We’d love to come back - we all voted, would return!!!
We had an amazing time at this cabin! We absolutely loved the location and hearing the river at night. It is close enough to the city yet far enough away. Everything was what we expected and what we wanted for our family vacation!!
We were more than happy with our stay at this cabin! We loved relaxing on the back deck overlooking the river. The drive to Durango is a scenic 20 minute drive. The owners provided very helpful and detailed information for the cabin and the area. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Texas residents:
We started visiting the Durango area in the summer and quickly fell in love with the area...enough so that we decided we wanted to share with our family and friends.
Once we arrived in Durango, we soon realized that this area is all that we expected (and more). We also knew that we wanted to find a vacation home on the water. When we found this cabin we knew it was a perfect place to spend quality downtime with our family. One of our favorite things to do is to sit on the deck and enjoy the sound of the water flowing by.
We hope that you will enjoy your time at our cabin as much as we do.
