About this property

Lovely retreat north of town with private balcony & shared pool/hot tub

Take in the beauty of Southern Colorado with mountain views from this perfect Durango Gem. You will have your own peace and quiet with a location just north of downtown, yet you will be close enough to experience all of the best attractions in the area. Each day can be filled with outdoor activities from skiing to hiking, yet returning to home base each night will be a treat as well. The interior boasts tall ceilings, a spacious layout, and fun mountain decor that is the cherry on top. Bring your favorite recipes along as well because this condo boasts a fully equipped kitchen with updated appliances, beautiful countertops, and a large island with seating to keep the chef of the group company while prepping ingredients. Finish each day on a relaxing note by kicking back in the living room with a movie streaming on the mounted flatscreen TV, heading out to the private balcony with a cocktail as the sun goes down, or soaking in bliss at the shared hot tub. What are you waiting for? The mountains are calling!

Great condo

Great surrounding area. Beautiful views. Condo is great for a big family or even two smaller ones. All furnishings are sufficient and the clubhouse hot tub and pools top it off to be a great place to stay

Wonderful and quiet getaway

Had a great stay at this location. Plenty of room for our family of 5 and a nice balcony looking out at the mountains and golf course. Very quiet. About 25 minutes from Durango and 10 minutes from Purgatory but worth the drive for the peacefulness.

Cozy condo

Nice location, beds were comfortable although the location of the air conditioner by the bed upstairs blew right at you which was uncomfortable. The quiet location of this condo is ideal

Clean and quiet

The property is located a decent ways outside of Durango so if you aren't wanting to stay in the heart of Durango this would be a great option for you. Overall the rental was clean and had fairly easy check-in. Guest can use the onsite pool which the teens enjoyed during our stay. The balcony was a nice place to enjoy the breeze and read! Overall, it was a great stay.

Amazing

It was perfect. Beautiful Durango, perfect weather, goos food. The Condo was well equipped, super comfy. Easily sleeps 6. Half way between Durango and Purgatory. Plenty of hiking options, fishing. This is the kind of place you want to keep coming back.

Great Condo

This condo was clean, comfortable, and updated. It's a great distance from both Purgatory and Durango. The water is very hard, but didn't inconvenience us. The condo was also well stocked to cook meals, but could use with some blankets.

Fall Color Tour

This was the third stop in our Colorado fall color tour. And it did not disappoint. The grounds and amenities at this place are excellent! We enjoyed the hot tub and the heated indoor and outdoor saltwater pools! Perfect for after an invigorating hike in the mountains. Our stay in our room was great, there is only a twin bed on the first floor and it’s an open ceiling. So if you’re traveling with a couple couples, you have to be careful :-)

Nice property North of town

The address took us right to the property. It’s a ways north of town but not inconvenient. Property is well cared for. The layout is okay but we stayed in the full bed in the lower floor which was not entirely comfortable. The upstairs bathroom and beds are much nicer. We had an issue with the hot water that also took about 4 hrs to resolve. It was just the breaker but we didn’t know how or where to check and getting help thru the Inbox was nonexistent. Help finally came when I called or texted. It worked out fine but next time I will try to stay on the south east side for a different take.

Hi Sierra. Thank you for sharing your experience. We are glad the property was easy to find and well maintained and that overall it worked out for your stay. We are sorry to hear about the hot water issue and the delay in getting support through the messaging system. That should have been resolved faster and more clearly. Your feedback helps us improve communication and response time for future guests. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope your next visit offers the perspective you are looking for on the southeast side.

Better Climate than Durango

The rental is more than a thousand feet higher in elevation than Durango and cooler, which is great in July/August. Never had to turn on the air conditioning. When you open the windows or sit on the patio, however, you have to listen to the traffic on the highway. Can't see it but you can sure hear it. That highway takes you south to Durango in about 25 minutes and north to beautiful lakes and hiking trails in 10-20 minutes. The rental kitchen is well equipped. If you need a particular tool, look in the many cabinets and you will probably find it. Plenty of dishes and flatware. The host is very responsive when you need service. And you can reach them 24/7!

Tamarron Condo

We have booked at this location multiple times through VBRO and have been very happy with our stay. This condo was also managed by VACASA which resulted in multiple issues. Once booked through VBRO, we were contacted by VACASA to provide all of the information that had already been provided to VBRO. At check in, the desk clerk told us that our room was occupied by other guests - so I contacted VACASA, who could not figure out what the issue was and escalated to a supervisor. As they could not solve the problem , the desk clerk allowed us to check the premises to see if they were occupied. They were not, but the check in delay resulted in us arriving late for our evening plans. Also second bedroom was extremely small (barely fit a double bed) and open at the ceiling - not as expected. Will not book through VBRO/VACASA again.

Fall in Durango

We had a wonderful time enjoying the Glacier/Tammaron property and pools with the young ones. The size of the condo was good for the 5 of us. We had a maintenance issue that was handled quickly and efficiently. The management was responsive and quick to resolve things. We would go again tomorrow!

Beautiful Place!

This place was as pictured, and even though I’m not much for 2 story levels, this one did not bother me. Was not too keen on the washer/dryer combo machine, but it got the job done. Families with kids who like to swim should be warned that this unit is not within walking distance - will have to drive about 1/2 mile to the resort clubhouse. It was nice that the resort provides beach towels. Resort is about 30+ minutes from Durango, but the area is so beautiful, we didn’t mind the drive. Would love staying here again.
