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 cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. A TV comes with satellite channels, and guests can stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a coffee maker.

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!

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.

Florida River Cabin in Durango

The Florida River, outside the house, with a deck that provides an amazing front row seat, is the main attraction and the selling point of this home. Unfortunately, our experience was different than the reviews read before booking. Time had to be spent cleaning off cobwebs that covered all outdoor chairs and tables as well as the house windows, screens, and deck railings. The deck was covered in dirt, dust, and pinetree needles. Come inside and cobwebs were found in most wall corners and light fixtures. Both bathroom shower heads need to be replaced. The worst issue was the antiquated stovetop as there was no drip pan for the cast iron grill top so therefore it drained into the bottom cabinet base. As was the case with the bbq grill that was missing a drip pan and drippings drained underneath onto the deck. Both were found after the fact and required more time spent cleaning. Also under the Jenn-aire stovetop, the ductwork for the exhaust fan was supported by an old coffee can which fell aside causing it to not vent properly which in turn caused the smoke alarm to continually go off. Both the front door and rear sliding door stuck so bad we could barely open them. We did not contact Property Management because we just wanted to spend our time enjoying Durango. Hopefully these issues will be addressed before the next guests.

Overall stay

Bed in main bedroom was comfortable to my wife and I. We normally sleep on a Tempurpedic medium firm bed. Cabin was at the end of the lane past several other homes and had a large nice deck that overlooked the Florida river. Only negative was a broken sliding screen on the sliding door leading to the main deck. Otherwise, the cabin was clean, well kept and quietly secluded. Parking was a little tight but no problem.
