Nice clean property in quiet area. Check in was easy and hassle free. Kitchen facilities were well equipped with everything we needed for our trip. Plenty of space for the 5 of us to either hang out together or spread out and do our own thing if we wanted. We will definitely stay here again when in the area!

We loved the air conditioning in the bedrooms. There was plenty of space for five adults and we loved watching the train go by the back side of the condo. Thanks for use of your place!!
My husband and I came to Colorado on a quick business trip. The location was perfect for us. It was very clean and offered the basic amenities. We had to get in touch with the property manager a couple of times, the response was excellent. Prompt and answered all our questions!

What an incredibly beautiful location and property! We were very pleased with how clean the property was and that it’s in tip-top shape. I personally loved all of the hummingbirds around the property and all of the cheeky chipmunks. The kitchen was well stocked with the essential cooking implements although we only used a frying pan to make omelette I could tell I could make a meal from scratch no problem with what was provided. The complimentary coffee packet and Aveda products were an extra special touch. Parking was great and check out procedure a cinch. Thanks for the great stay!

Property was a little tight for four adults, but we pretty much used it as a place to sleep. The spiral stairs to access the upstairs bedroom was steep and tight. Large suitcases would be difficult. Nice outside of town location.

Thought we were only there 2 nights, it was a pleasant time. The only comment I would make is future renters need to know that the spiral stairs going up to the second level are narrow and one needs to be very cautious.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and we're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. We do apologize the back deck is not as welcoming as it was before. The area of these condos was impacted by mud slides after the unfortunate 416 fire a couple of years ago and the mountainside behind is still recovering. We have to continue to protect the back of the condo from potential mudslides if there is any heavy rain. Other than that, it was a pleasure to host you and we hope you come stay with us again soon!
Everything was great however, it was really hot, uncomfortable, and difficult to sleep with no air conditioning.

Thank you for leaving a review! We are so glad to hear you had an enjoyable stay! Most properties in the area do not have air conditioning as its very cool at night and opening the windows at night to let the cool air in and closing them during the day keeps it cool. If you find it to be an unusually warm during your stay please feel free to call us and we are happy to provide some additional fans. It was a pleasure to host you and we hope you stay with us again soon :)

We are a family of 6 and this condo accommodated us perfectly! It had all the amenities to make things comfortable - I have been at places that offered starter paper products and laundry detergent, but this location provided everything we needed for the full five nights. The 20 min drive to downtown Durango was gorgeous. Would highly recommend to anyone!Cool extra, the Durango train to Silverton runs behind the condo! We only heard the whistle once and it is not a disturbance - it was so neat to sit on the porch and watch it!

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We're so glad the condo was a great fit for your family and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. The train is definitely a fun bonus—happy to hear you enjoyed it from the porch! We'd love to welcome you back anytime.-Erika
Would be great if there were more towels. Also there were no wash cloths and only one hand towel for each bathroom. The bed in the downstairs bedroom is so hard not even my 17 year old son would sleep on it. Everything else was great! Kitchen was well stocked and we loved the location.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the kitchen and the location. We apologize for the issues you encountered with the towels and the bed. We have looked into providing additional towels and washcloths, and we have looked into having our field staff check the bed downstairs to ensure the comfort of the downstairs bed to ensure a better experience for our future guests.

Steep stairs
Stayed for a total of 4 nights. Property was clean kitchen had everything we needed. Outside furniture was super dirty we weren’t able to enjoy the back porch. Communication with rental property could have been a little better. Stairs are super steep and small. Had a hard time getting our bags up the stairs.

It was perfect for 4 adults and 2 teenagers. We never really felt too on top of each other. Check-in was easy and so was check-out. The kitchen is very well equipped, we cooked almost every meal at the house. The location is perfectly set between the ski resort and downtown. about 10-15 minutes each way. Also very close to the hot springs. There was also plenty of room for 6 sets of ski gear in the storage closet on the patio. The only thing is that the bed downstairs is rock hard but all of the other beds were super comfortable and we made it work. Overall would recommend and look to stay at this rental again. Thank you!

Close to town. Train comes by so not a place for quiet. Not the cleanest place I have stayed. Dust hanging from ceiling, mildew in showers, grease build up microwave and dishwasher. Hand soaps half full and used toiletries provided. Carpet is pretty dirty so bring slippers. Careful who you decides to sleep upstairs the staircase is very steep narrow and carpet made it slippery, we all took a turn falling.
