Wildcat Canyon Retreat | Epic Deck + Views
Escape to a mountain home designed for gathering. Nestled in peaceful Wildcat Canyon just 7 miles from downtown Durango, this beautifully crafted retreat is the perfect place for friends and family to cook, connect, and unwind together. Once owned by a local artist, the home features handcrafted décor, warm custom woodwork, and a massive 2,000 sq ft wraparound deck with sweeping views of the La Plata Mountains.
At the heart of the home is an incredible chef’s kitchen made for cooking and conversation. With expansive prep space, double ovens, generous seating, and multiple dining areas, it’s the kind of kitchen where everyone naturally gathers — sharing meals, pouring drinks, and lingering long after dinner. A separate bar area with its own sink and additional refrigerator makes entertaining easy for larger groups, holiday meals, and special occasions.
Large windows and an open layout fill the home with natural light and mountain views, creating inviting spaces to relax throughout the day. Step outside onto the expansive deck for morning coffee, afternoon sunshine, or unforgettable sunset dinners overlooking the mountains. With so much outdoor space, it’s the perfect setting for long conversations, fresh mountain air, and peaceful evenings under the stars.
The spacious primary suite features a king bed, soaking tub, double sinks, and a large walk-in shower — a comfortable private retreat after a day of exploring. Three additional bedrooms each include queen beds, while a bonus sleeping area offers a twin-over-queen bunk bed, making the home ideal for families, groups, or multi-generational trips. A second full bathroom includes a tub/shower combo with double sinks, and a convenient half bath is located on the main level.
Guests also enjoy fast Wi-Fi, smart TVs, multiple living areas, and plenty of room to spread out. The home offers full access to the surrounding property and outdoor spaces, though the garage is not available for guest use.
Located in scenic Wildcat Canyon, you’ll be just minutes from hiking and biking trails, river access for rafting and fishing, horseback riding, and scenic drives through the San Juan Mountains. Purgatory Resort is about 45 minutes away for world-class skiing in the winter and alpine adventures in the summer.
Whether you're planning a mountain escape, a holiday gathering, or a long weekend cooking and reconnecting with loved ones, this Wildcat Canyon retreat offers the perfect blend of space, comfort, and unforgettable mountain views.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
