Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a great overall experience. It was accessible and easy to find. There was zero traffic from the lodge to the ski resort. There are 2 hottubs and 1 pool. The indoor hottubs jets were not working at the time of our stay, we enjoyed the outdoor hottub but on the 3rd day it wasn’t working either. By the 4th day they had it fixed, but the indoor hottubs definitely would’ve offset some of the bodies in the working hottub because it did get packed a couple of nights. Super cool game room, but the closing at 5 was a big hit for the pool table with slopes closing at 4. Overall I was beyond pleased with our stay and we will be back in the future

There should have been better communication regarding the number of stairs to access the unit. I was traveling with a handicapped person. Also the blind facing incoming parking traffic couldn't be closed all the way, compromising privacy. Otherwise this was a very nice unit.

Pros and cons

Pros: the condo is right on 550 and there are many trailheads and lakes around. We enjoyed Mathews slake 14 miles north up 550, twilight lake and its playground, and haviland lake, along with several trails. There is a restaurant on the property. The condo is as pictured and is clean, spacious for a 1br. I enjoyed the amazing plethora of hummingbirds while sitting on the deck and walking around. I enjoyed the property’s outdoor hot tub and the closeness to purgatory ski area and it’s activities. Cons: I didn’t know the area, and was disappointed to learn that this condo is actually 30mim from Durango proper. The condo advertisement doesn’t really mention this directly, so it was surprising and makes it challenging to time things with young children along. It leaves little ability for grabbing a bite out at a restaurant, although there are a few (2-3) choices (recommend strongly James Ranch, 14 miles away). The hot water heater did not last to fill the jacuzzi bathtub for a bath and the bathtub drain did not seal (which may contribute to why the hot water didn’t fill up tub). This only was a problem when trying to bathe my son. The shower stream was great though and plenty of hot water for a long shower. The biggest con was the traffic noise. The condo does not have AC so we had to sleep with the windows open. But the condo is 100ft from highway 550, and the noise from cars, trucks, and motorcycles was loud and kept us awake. The second night we set the freestanding fan on high for white noise and that helped a lot. Maybe planning to have a noise machine app on your phone if you are a lighter sleeper can help?

Great Trip and Property

It was warm (for Colorado) the first few days. After that the weather was fine. Since the condo doesn't have AC (few do in Colorado) it was warm inside during the day but the evenings were great! Beautiful place and well stocked. I recommend this condo in any season!!
