Perfect home to enjoy with friends and family during our ski trip.
Its tradition for my friends and I to stay at a cabin surrounded by golden aspens every year, and this cabin served as the perfect base camp to travel to and from durango and silverton. The cabin was spacious, clean, and had an unbeatable view of engineer mountain.
This stay was ideal for our large group of 11! Everyone was able to sleep comfortable in their own bed and the house was spacious for all of us. The pricing and sleeping arrangements were the best deal we could find compared to other properties. You are only about a mile away from Purgatory which was super easy to access. Hot tub was a plus! Overall great stay, would definitely book again.
Beautiful house! Love the view out of the big windows in the living room. The kitchen is well stocked. The shuttle is prompt and so easy to hop on to get over to ski Purgatory. We had a two families stay here together with lots of teenagers, and we really enjoyed this house. Bonus was the hill just outside to sled on!
Wow- I have rented from VRBO for years and this one is the crown jewel! The house is absolutely deluxe! Beds are comfortable and the bedrooms are all big. The kitchen is beyond fully stocked. Incredible views from decks and home. I really did not want to leave! The on call shuttle used on the mobile app worked very well too! I would stay again here if available. Thank you!!!!

Our family of 12 stayed at 59 Snowden and had a lovely time. Prior to our arrival we were welcomed by the management company and they were available throughout our stay to answer our questions. The shuttle service was outstanding providing efficient and friendly service.
