Durango Family Getaway

This Durango worked well for our multi-generational family. It had lots of room for the kids to run and play as well as areas for the adults to hang out and de-stress. The cabin was large, easy to get to and close to everything we needed. I would recommend this property if your visiting the Durango area!

Great location!

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin on our recent ski trip to Purgatory. The owners were pleasant in our communications and the location of the cabin made getting to the ski resort a piece of cake. The cabin is also close to a grocery store and other things to do in and around Durango.

Stayed here with friends for a soccer tournament

This was a good home to stay in- it was VERY clean which won us over! It is definitely quirky and had some minor inconveniences (some doors won't close and several light bulbs were out upstairs- wasn't a huge deal but we didn't have much light up there at night) but the cleanliness and the neat game room would bring us back!

Fun place to stay!

If you like original & fun, this is the place to stay. We were there for a family wedding & was excited to find a place close to the venue, but we would definitely go back and stay here just for the fun of it, anytime. Unique, clean, comfortable, well stocked, and friendly, accessible hosts. Kids had a great time with the spiral staircase, big yard to play in and the game room. Adults enjoyed the scenery and the relaxing setting.

Durango lodge

Fantastic place for a group of active adults. Stayed here for a hiking/biking weekend, the location is perfect. We also really enjoyed the game room and outdoor space. It’s so nice to have a place big enough everyone can have their own room, and great communal space too. The host is very responsive to any questions I had during my stay.

Perfect house for multiple families

Property was well maintained with a very unique layout. We absolutely loved the week we stayed there with family and friends. Four bedrooms and four baths was perfect with no waiting in line for facilities. Amenities were great and the large kitchen perfect for our morning breakfast. Highly recommend this home and will stay again on our next trip to Durango. Location was also great for all the activities we attended for my son’s wedding Exceptional home.

Best trip!!

We had a great time here. Plenty of rooms/beds for 10 of us. The kids had a blast in the game room and basketball court. The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. Plenty of kitchen essentials for your cooking needs. We will definitely return next time we visit CO.
