House was very cute and clean. House was very close to downtown Durango and host was nice and responsive quickly to any messages. Was exactly what we needed for our vacation.
Great location with an easy walk (over the Animas River) to Main Street and other nearby restaurants and grocery stores. The house is very well laid out and clean. Great front porch for people watching. Would stay here again.
Great place to stay in Durango - walking distance to the river and downtown. Check in was easy. The home was clean and comfortable for 5 guests. Wish we could have stayed longer.
We loved staying here - the home is in a nice, quiet neighborhood that’s within walking distance to shops and restaurants downtown. There was plenty of room for our group to stretch out. This was a perfect start to our vacation!
We loved our stay in the Durango house. It has a great location. A very quiet neighborhood. Easy walking distance to downtown, the River Walk and over to the Library w/ the beautiful garden. The kitchen was stocked with everything! And to top it off, the air conditioner was a savior. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Good Place to stay and close to town, walking distance.

The house was super cute, clean, the beds were comfortable, and the porch and backyard space were private and quiet. We loved staying here and will definitely book it again!
Stayed here one night on a family “Griswald style” road trip. Perfect place! Close to old town Durango and super easy to get to. Would do it again in a heart beat!
We really enjoyed our stay here! It was stocked with everything we needed. The beds were super comfy. All in all a great place and we’d definitely stay again.
We enjoyed the house and found it easy to walk to the downtown shops and restaurants
