Scenic Mountain Escape (#304) | Deck, Mtn Views, Fireplace, Near Ski, Dogs OK
Scenic Mountain Escape at Silverpick (#304) is a cozy two‑story townhome with 2 bedrooms, a loft, and 2 bathrooms, offering plenty of space to unwind. Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, a welcoming fireplace, and beautiful mountain views that set the tone for a true Colorado getaway.
Located less than 5 minutes from Purgatory Ski Resort and just 25 minutes from downtown Durango, it’s the perfect home base for skiing, hiking, biking, or simply relaxing after a day on the trails. You’ll also appreciate the convenience of a dishwasher, washer/dryer, and—best of all—dogs are welcome, so your four‑legged companions can join the adventure.
WHERE YOU'LL SLEEP: * Main Bedroom - King Bed with TV (2nd Level) * 2nd Bedroom - Queen Bed (Main Level) * Loft - Pull-Out Sofa (2nd Level)
AMENITIES: The property has a shared hot tub, playground, and hiking. You can also walk or bike the 0.3-mile dirt road from the condo to the Nugget Mountain Bar - they have a food truck and indoor/outdoor seating with firepits. In the summer, they also feature live music! In the summer, a bike ride to the ski resort would be easy, too.
LOCATION: Silverpick sits at appx 8800 feet in elevation. It borders the National Forest and is about halfway between the historic towns of Durango and Silverton. This prime location is just 1 mile from Purgatory Ski Resort's entrance and approximately 25 minutes from downtown Durango, with scenic drives up to Silverton and Ouray. Enjoy both quiet privacy and the incomparable Needles Mountain views from this townhome, while being close enough to the action of Purgatory Resort where you can enjoy a variety of restaurants, winter and summer activities, and festivals/events.

Nice Place
Very nice condo. It snowed quite a bit during our stay (in the middle of April) but the condo was warm and comfy. Although, the bad weather did make the internet go out briefly. The decorations and artwork are super cute, making the place very inviting. It was also nice to have some trial-sized toiletries and household supplies (like dish soap and a new dish sponge). I also greatly appreciated that we weren't required to clean on check-out like so many other places. We did the dishes and stripped the beds, but it was nice that we didn't HAVE to do those things. Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing stay in Durango
The condo was very clean and cozy. The bathrooms and kitchen were well stocked with everything we needed. The location was wonderful - far enough out of Durango so that it was peaceful and traffic free. Located close to Haviland Lake where we enjoyed kayaking and picnicking. Also conveniently located not too far from Silverton and Ouray.

Decent stay
Condo was close to Purgatory Ski Resort. Cleanliness of property was disappointing. Floors & kitchen were dirty, including dishes that were in cabinet. Coffee maker was nasty and didn’t work properly.
