We love staying in this home. It was very beautiful and clean, and it had all of the extra amenities that we needed as far as extra blankets and pillows. The kitchen was fully stocked and was nice to cook in.
It is always a challenge to find a house to accommodate four generations for our annual get together. This house was perfect! Eric was very easy to communicate with both prior to our arrival and during our stay. He even let us use his children’s sleigh for our little people to ride down the hill by the house. The house was very clean and provided everything we needed for our stay. Five stars across the board. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
We had an amazing stay during Christmas! Close to town and skiing. The kids loved hearing the train go by each day. Kitchen was perfect and enough space for everyone to get time to themselves if needed. Highly recommend!
I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a place to stay. It was super clean and well taken care of. The owner/manager was very helpful and responsive with any questions asked.
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. The location was convenient to town but it still felt like a true mountain vacation. The house is stunning and had everything we needed and more. The view from the deck is gorgeous and it was so fun to see the trains go by. Everyone in our family from Grandpa down to our littlest one loved every minute we spent here and along with our Polar Express train ride, made this Thanksgiving our most memorable and magical ever! The owner was very welcoming and easy to communicate with, and he went above and beyond to help us out.
This home is Absolutely perfect for a large group. Was out in Durango for my son’s wedding. Easily slept 10 at this house. Beds were incredibly comfy. House had so much charm. Close to downtown Durango but far enough away to have great views and quiet. The host was outstanding. Just a friendly and available guy. Highly recommend renting this house in Durango. You will be happy you did.
We so enjoyed our time in Durango! The cabin was perfect for us! Eric and Dwight were so welcoming, we felt right home. Communication was very good and timely. We were even gifted with bounty from the garden.
We like to cook and were so pleased with how well the kitchen was stocked with everything we could need.
We were sad to leave, but look forward to returning!
Thank you Eric and Dwight
Wonderful & homey. We had 7 adults and four children and loved our stay. Our almost 3 year old twins loved seeing and hearing the train from the house deck.
Our family of 5 stayed at this beautiful property. It had a well-equipped kitchen and wonderful amenities. The view from the balcony was gorgeous and so peaceful. The location was perfect, everything we did in Durango was within 10 minutes. We were also blessed to get to know the owner, who was always available to answer a question. We will be back! Thanks, Dwight :)
Having stayed in many VRBO’s, this was by far our best experience. Beautiful home, friendly and helpful property owner and manager who both live nearby on the property. Highly recommend - you won’t be disappointed!
Great location with proximity to town as well as to all the attractions North on the highway to Silverton. The house was nicer than expected as the pictures don't do it justice. Great views of the sunset at night while sitting on the deck.
We came for a baseball tournament and this place was just perfect for our two families. The kids had a blast when we were there and the adults were able to relax. Great place!
A Slice of Paradise in Durango - Exceptional Hosting Experience!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at the most enchanting VRBO accommodation in Durango, Colorado, and our experience was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, it was evident that this was not just a place to stay but a home away from home.
The hosts, witch have been an absolute pleasure to work with. who epitomized hospitality, and welcomed us with open arms, creating an immediate sense of warmth and comfort. Their attention to detail was extraordinary, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was not only enjoyable but exceeded our expectations.
This property is top notch! The owners were exceptional as far as communication and made us all feel very welcome. The cabin was clean, had everything we needed, location was perfect, close to Durango, Purgatory, and the hot springs. Wish we could have stayed longer although we will be back. Thanks Eric and Dwight!
I cannot say enough good things about this property. Not only was it conveniently located but it was immaculate. The host, Eric was always available for any questions we had. I will definitely be back.
We had a great time here, communication was clear, easy access, quiet, clean, had all the plates/cups/etc. to make it such a easy stay. Even met the owners, and they were very nice! Will definitely be back again! :)
