Best little gem near durango
We had the most amazing time at the cottonwood cabin we rented for a few nights. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed all the playing areas available for all ages. We love everything about it and didn't want to go home. Thank you!!

Great place especially if you have pets.
We used this cabin as a base camp and loved it. It’s such a beautiful area and the only noise is the squirrels, birds and roosters.

Greatest Stress reducing trip I have ever had.
We had a great stay at the blue spruce. We have been staying at this camp site for many years. This year we rented a cabin best idea we ever had. Cabin had all the amenities. We had enclosed porch that made sitting outside fabulous read a book or drink a cup of tea. Cabin was ver well insulated from the cold and out side noises. Staff was very friendly and eager to help. It may be a little far out from Durango but the drive is fabulous. It is close to the lake though. Can’t wait to schedule another vacation to Blue Spruce.
