Perfect spot for a few days in the mountains
We couldn't have asked for a better experience at this property. We were there during ski season and it was incredible. I can only imagine how beautiful it is there in the summer time. The back deck has ridiculous mountain views with a lake down below. We were a 3 minute drive from the driveway to the chair lift. The house just feels great while you're there. The furniture is nice. Everything is clean and recently updated. The process for checking and checking out was seamless. I'll definitely be looking to go back in the summer. Thank you for a great experience!

STUNNING!
Absolutely stunning property. We stayed just after they worked on some renovations, so looks slightly different than the photos when we booked. However, it is just a gorgeous property, definitely will book it again in the future. I think the only thing missing are curtains to the master bedroom, some blinds on windows and a hot tub for the patio. Perfect for your next trip to Durango though!
