Amazing Stay
Our family had an amazing stay. The house was very clean and perfectly set up for hanging out, cooking and enjoying the gorgeous views. We loved the deck and firepit. The location was great and felt very private but also not too far from downtown Durango and Silverton. We'd love to stay again in the future!
Cutest cabin with the best views! Perfect spot in the mountains to relax!

Great place
We loved staying in this lovely home. The location and view are the best quality! The house is cozy, with all the amenities that a home needs. That you so much for letting us stay. We look forward in returning!
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!
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!

Place was Quiet and Bea
I loved the deck and the views. I also loved the house itself. It was comfortable, the bed was great and it was well maintained and clean.
With that said.... there were no instructions on how to work the TV. We assumed that it had cable and we didn't have to actually access our own provided. Plus the internet would not pick up and the TV so we had to reboot the system and log into our own provider (after calling for help).
The Hot tub was inoperable and the garage barely fit our car, but we did get our car into it.
The road going in is gravel but pretty well marinated so not a big problem.
On check out we had to actually wash the towels, dispose of all our food that was left, run the dishwasher and take the garbage to the end of the road to dispose of it (but could not because there were no instruction that were provided that worked to unlock the bin).
All and all if they changed a few things I would happily stay there again sometime.
