About this property

Entertaining Home 7 Miles to Downtown Durango & 5 Miles to Nighthorse Lake

This spacious home is ready to host your family and friends on a memorable vacation. The main floor includes the master bedroom and bath, two additional bedrooms and baths. The living and dining room look out to the back deck. Finally, there is a family room, kitchen and laundry. Downstairs is a game room, full bath and large bunk room that sleeps 5.

Set on 5 acres, there is plenty of room to spread out and play games both inside & out, watch tv, or gaze out the floor to ceiling windows to the serene forest. The home is equipped to help you host your family reunion, intimate wedding or anniversary celebration. (Permission and additional fees apply.)

Hiking trails are nearby and with easy access to Lake Nighthorse, outdoor activities including a water play area, kayak rentals, boating and fishing options are abundant. Downtown Durango is 7 miles away, with shopping, restaurants and access to rafting, fly fishing, skiing and, of course, the Durango Narrow Gauge Train.

Some of the photos are a few years old, we are frequently upgrading furniture and remodeling some spaces. Planned for Summer 2025, a bunk bed added to the downstairs bedroom, a pool/ping pong table, dumb bells to the game room and Mountain bicycles for your use.

This was the perfect house for our post Christmas get away. We had 4 couples and three kiddos with us during our stay and we had more than enough room for everyone to be comfortable

Beautiful Family Space

Our daughter’s wedding was a destination to Durango, and this home was the most perfect space to prepare and celebrate close to their wedding venue at Engineer Meadows. The hosts were supportive and attentive with each question we had and responded quickly which brought ease to the busy days leading up to the wedding. From flower arranging to wedding morning preparations to a post-wedding brunch site for our family and guests, this site was functional and beautiful. All the baking and cookware needed was on hand, the rooms are spacious, and the downstairs retreat was comfy and cozy for our littles to play and explore.For added awe to this past week, we saw deer in the front or back yards each day and at night the living area windows perfectly framed the gorgeous night sky twinkling stars and all. We were beyond thankful for being able to stay in this home for the week!
