About this property

River Stone | Charming Log Cabin Near Florida River, 20 Min to Town, Dogs OK

River Stone (in Forest Grove Estates) is a classic Colorado river cabin is located within a 20-min drive from Durango. In the mountains and near the Florida river, this is a great location while enjoying all that the Durango area has to offer.

Outside, the deck is a great place to enjoy morning coffee or view the starry night skies from the porch swing.  Fall foliage is spectacular with aspen and other seasonal trees surrounding the home, and winter snow creates a unique mountain getaway at this home. Fishing is a hop, skip and jump away across the road. There are many hiking trails in this area, as well.

Inside, the cabin layout includes a full kitchen, living room with fireplace and streaming TV, dining area.  Both bedrooms and bathroom with walk-in shower are also on the main level. We have plenty of family board games for you to enjoy. The cabin also has a washer/dryer.

BED CONFIGURATION:
* Master Bedroom - King (main level)
* 2nd Bedroom - Full (main level)

LOCATION: Our home has shared private Florida river access and access to Treasure Island - a shared community recreation area that's perfect for family fishing outings, picnics, and nature adventures.

Great Fall Get Away
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely property. It was immaculately clean and well appointed. It is convenient to town and the drive is beautiful. My husband and I have had an exhausting year and this home provided us with the respite that we needed away from the hustle and bustle of our lives back in Dallas TX. I would highly recommend this property as great vacation get away.
