Ideal for a college visit, family vacation, adventurous retreat, or trip with friends, an escape to Southwest Colorado will never be the same after your stay in this cozy and comfortable two-level condo with a shared hot tub and pool area, and partial mountain views.

Located in Durango, this getaway is right next to Fort Lewis College. You'll be located just one mile up the road from downtown, so whether you want to walk, drive, or take the scenic bike path, accessing the shops, restaurants, and outdoor activities in this charming college town is easy!

Take the stairs up to your condo (there are about 30 stairs to get to your front door) and fall in love with your new cozy abode. Inside, enjoy warm and ambient surroundings, hardwood floors, and comfortable furniture where you can kick back, read a book, or chat with your group about what you want to do with the day.

The open area on the first floor includes a living room with lots of furniture and a large flatscreen TV. In the evening, light a fire, put on your softest pajamas, and enjoy watching something on TV or spending some quality time together.

This vacation condo also offers free WiFi, so bring your laptops along! The small, built-in desk just off the kitchen is a great place to get some work done.

In this area, you'll also find a tiled dining table, and a small but luxurious kitchen tucked into the corner of the room. In the kitchen, cooking is made easy with gorgeous stainless steel appliances, spacious granite countertops, and plenty of cabinet storage for putting away all of your groceries.

One bedroom on the main floor sleeps two in a queen-size bed. Guests who sleep here can also use the full bathroom in the hallway. Climb up the stairs to the loft-like primary bedroom that accommodates two more with a king-size bed, en suite bathroom, and its own TV. The primary bedroom also has lots of closet and dresser storage for all of your things!

A stay in this Durango escape also includes access to a shared swimming pool and hot tub, where you can go for a swim or take a soak after a long day.

Visitors to this area love Mesa Verde National Park, just 35 miles east of Durango. Here, you'll find over 5,000 protected archaeological sites, including Anasazi dwellings built into the cliffs, and lots of hiking opportunities for adventurous explorers!

In the summertime, you can drive 18 miles to Vallecito Lake, a beautiful blue body of water located within the Weminuche Wilderness Area. Fishing, boating, swimming, and other activities are all available here!

Skiing is available just 26 miles north at Purgatory Resort, where you can speed downhill on more than 85 delightful trails. Afterwards, head back into Durango to explore the shops, restaurants, and craft beer breweries in this 'City of Brewerly Love.'

Whether you're visiting your Fort Lewis College student or you're a national park junkie who wants to see them all, Durango is packed full of activities. Book today for excitement and fun in one of Colorado's most incredible destinations.

Great Location BUT No HOT Water
I was hesitant to book this place because the reviews were all over the place, but if you like a hot/warm shower this place is not for you. The good: We were in town for a soccer tournament, so the location was awesome. It is next door to the college and is minutes away from downtown. The condo has everything you need to cook quick meals at home. The bad: There is NO hot water. My husband called and someone came by (we were not there when they came by due to the tournament schedule), and they assured us the water was fine but it wasn’t. It also didn’t matter the time you took a shower. Evening showers were still cold. Surprisingly, the kitchen sink water was always hot, so we were able to wash our hair in the kitchen sink. Fun, right?! Yes, the condo is very dated and is in need of some upgrades but that doesn’t bother me as much as not having a hot shower for 3 days. Renters BEWARE!

The condo was comfortable and the furnishings were stylish. The bedding (sheets) need to be replaced. They were not soft to sleep on. There were more stairs then we expected to navigate.

Just Okay
Condo is generally dingy and in need of updating and freshening up. Bathrooms old and upstairs bathroom leaks into kitchen. Maintenance says that the owners need to have the plumbing fixed. Not a great property.

Property was accurately described. Involves a hike up stairs but it was comfortable, well equipped, and just right for 3 adults visiting Durango for 3 days. Some wear and tear but okay overall.

Great Disappointment - Spoiled Vacation
Looking at the picture on VRBO, the apartment looks pleasant enough. However it's a real Dump - It needs a lot of upgrading. It was filthy, we called VACASA who sent somebody to clean the oven, the garbage, the kitchen and the drawers, the smell was UNBEARABLE. The light in the kitchen didn't work, an electrician came on an early Saturday morning to put a temporary light. When we arrived at 10:30 at night the toilet was not flushing, the drawers in the bed-room and bath-room were full of hair and dirty, the pillow cases were mismatched. A blind was broken, so was an arm-chair which when moved it to be repaired was full of dust. The washing machine was filthy. VACASA responded to our complaints but we lost LITERALLY 4 days of our two week-stay. We got some discount but truthfully we would have preferred NOT to have that sort of problems

Satisfactory and served our needs. Extremely clean. Towels need to be pitched and replaced. 38 stairs to carry luggage and cooler was a huge negative.

Property was in a great location to downtown. It was clean and exactly as described on VRBO website. It would have been nice to have an outdoor patio to sit on and enjoy the weather but that definitely wasn’t a deal breaker. The check out process could have been a little better. We left at 7:30am and I received a text with a link at 8:13am. It would have been nice to get all of the checkout instructions the day prior. I was able to call/text the property manager and it went smoothly. Again, it would have been nice to get the instructions the day prior. It was a great trip and we will definitely stay again!
