This property is excellent and was an amazing venue for our family vacation. Easy access to Durango and the surrounding area. The property is gorgeous and you really can't beat the outdoor space for both relaxing and socializing with friends and family. The house was spacious and well stocked. A perfect mountain vacation home!

It sounds like you had a fantastic time! The combination of a beautiful property, great outdoor space, and easy access to Durango must have made for an unforgettable family vacation. It’s always nice when a place feels both spacious and well-equipped. We hope to see you back again in the near future.
It is in a great quiet location with all the amenities you need for your stay. The outside areas and views were beautiful and all the inside areas are nice. We had one issue during our stay and it was taken care of within hours. All ages in our group had an amazing time at this house!

We had a relaxing stay (which we all needed) at the Main House. Despite above average temps for Durango, the house was pleasant with fans and portable ACs thoughtfully provided. The house was fully stocked making our stay easy and effortless. The privacy, wildlife, and most of all the views made this a great vacation stay!

Reviewer Comments:
Beautiful property, the location was a bit of a challenge as it's quite far up a gravel road that was getting somewhat rutted out. The master bedroom was amazing and the 1 other queen bed was nice, but the rest of the sleeping arrangements weren't exactly as expected and 1 friend ended up on the couch. This would be suited for 1 couple in the master, the queen bed would be ok if a second couple is good with tight quarters, but the other beds are really only good for kids who don't care and have healthy young backs. The kitchen was good, very functional, and it was so cool having deer and wild turkeys and other critters come visit.

Hi Leah,
Thank you so much for your recent review. Thank you for mentioning that the property was located on beautiful grounds and that you enjoyed the wildlife that visited outside. It sounds like you were able to make the most of the master bedroom and additional queen bed but the floorplan was not what you expected resulting in one person sleeping on the couch.Thank you for your feedback about the gravel road presenting a bit of a challenge for you, I can understand how that may have impacted your stay. We are delighted to hear that you found the kitchen to be well appointed, and functionnal for your group. Your feedback is invaluable to us and we are honored to call you our guests. We look forward to hosting you again for a perfect stay.
Kind regards,
-Holly
