The cabin was beautiful, clean and very well appointed. The views from the decks were incredible, as were the stars at night. The pictures, as nice as they portray the property, do not do it justice. You must experience it in person!!
As a group of seven women, we really enjoyed the four bedroom suites, each with a private bath (we made arrangements to add the "Lodge Suite" making 4 bedrooms).
Our group was very comfortable in the home, which could probably handle 2-3 families without a problem. The loft looked like such a great place for kids!
We enjoyed the local's favorite eateries and were close enough to include Silverton and Durango as destinations to enjoy during our stay.
The owners, Hans and Norma, were absolutely great to deal with! They were responsive when we had questions and helpful when we were technically challenged. They also provided some great suggestions for what do enjoy locally!
Because the owners stipulate no street shoes in the home, and asks that only slippers be worn in the house, to protect the floors, (which are beautiful real wood, well cared for, floors), the only suggestion we would make, to improve the property and a stay, would be to install some sort of attractive slip guard strips on the stairs. The Cabin is three stories, with a lot of stairs. We had a couple of close calls with "slipper slips", so an extra layer of slip protection would have been a help and a bonus.
If we're ever back in the area we would definitely arrange to stay here again.
Hans and Norma you did a beautiful and outstanding job creating and remodeling this jewel of a cabin, thanks for sharing it with us!!
