great cabin

This little cabin was just perfect for our recent 3 night stay in Durango. I'm hoping to come again during the summer time to enjoy the views of Lake Vallecito! It was easy to find and the host greeted us while they worked hard at snow removal because we had a blizzard on the day of our arrival.
