Classic Colorado Cabin on the Florida River - 20 Minutes to Downtown Durango

NOTE: 4WD/AWD required in winter (Thanksgiving through late March).

Enjoy end-of-the-road privacy in this quintessential Colorado river cabin located within a 20 minute drive from Durango. In the mountains and on the Florida river, this is a great location as "base camp" while enjoying all that the Durango area has to offer.

It’s all about the riverfront location!  Outside, the wraparound deck is a great place to enjoy morning coffee, relax in the rocking chairs or fish, and it’s a great place to view the starry night skies.  Fall foliage is spectacular with aspen and other seasonal trees surrounding the home, and winter snow creates a unique mountain getaway at this home.

The cabin layout includes the main level with kitchen, living room, dining room and the large deck at river's edge, with both a covered section containing rocking chairs and benches, and an open area with picnic table, BBQ grill chiminea fireplace and steps leading to the lawn and riverbank beyond.  The open living area and deck make a fine gathering place for friends and family.  There is an AC Unit in the upstairs bedroom.

Bed Configuration:
Master Bedroom - King (main level)
2nd Bedroom & Loft - Queen & 2 Twins (upper level)

The cabin is not pet friendly - please do not bring pets or emotional service animals.

Our home has shared private Florida river access and access to Treasure Island - a shared community recreation area that's perfect for family fishing outings, picnics, and nature adventures. With Vallecito Lake a 15 minute drive, and Lemon Lake 8 minute drive from our home guests have easy access to robust fishing, boating, and paddle boarding opportunities. This home has very limited cell service.

Stay with us and we offer DISCOUNTS on both summer (white water rafting, horseback riding etc.) and winter (ski/snowboard rentals, sleigh rides, snowmobile tours etc.) activities.

Sales Tax No.The La Plata County Tax Rate is 6.9%

The porch and view were exceptional. The amenities needed updating. The primary shower would not shut off. We had to push in and turn to finally get it to turn off. There were multiple heat sources in the residence that were not very user friendly. If they had something in writing giving directions I think it would be a whole lot better for the next rental. We reached out and they were willing to come out the next day to assist, but we didn’t want to sit around. We wanted to enjoy our vacation. We just used extra blankets. The porch was the centerpiece and it was amazing to sit and listen to the water rushing in the creek.

Beautiful scenery

Beautiful scenery. The house on the river was so relaxing. Only thing that would have made this 5 stars is better AC. It got pretty warm inside during the day during peak summer heat. Also the river flow was pretty fast making fishing from the house difficult.But if you want somewhere to relax on the patio with the soothing river sounds, this is the place to be!

You cannot get any closer to the river than this. All our stress literally melted away within the first hour. The cabin was laid out beautifully and the kitchen was well equipped. We will definitely be back with family next time.Donnartexas

Peaceful cabin in a beautiful location

We came out to Durango for some R&R and this was certainly the place for it. Love the location on the river and end-of-the-road privacy. We had trouble using our code to get into the property but it was fairly quickly remedied by property management. No other issues for us. We would stay here again. We are considering bringing our daughter and grandson out here next year.
