Surrounded by mountains and tree

Beautiful house, clean and well equipped with comfortable beds and good showers. Every window offered a great view. My Texan family learned that all weather tires are not as good in offering grip on snow as winter tires do… but the roads are very drivable.

Rustic feel with modern comforts

The location was perfect for our family - far enough from town for a peaceful stay, yet close enough for an easy trip to the nightlife and shopping of Durango. With exposed beams and some unique log cabin touches, the cabin had a rustic feel but was thoroughly modern with updated appliances and features, like a heated floor in the master bath and multiple individual smart thermostats throughout the space. It was also immaculate. Hats off to the cleaning and maintenance crew. Everything was well cared for, with plenty of high-quality sheets and towels. There was more than enough room for our family of five, and the one-car garage came in handy when a snowstorm rolled through on the last night of our stay. Yes, the tap water had a sulfur smell, but we'd read the reviews and were prepared. There's a filter by the kitchen sink and plenty of bottled water, so no issues at all. We'd absolutely recommend this place to other families or groups.

Beautiful Cabin

Cabin was in a beautiful, restful location and had all amenities of a high end, modern home with the charm of its history left unspoiled. Location is great - out of the city but close enough. Only very small complaint was the sulphur smell in the water. Drinking water is absolutely fine and lots of extra provided. This is just a natural part of well water but could be a problem for some with an aversion to it. The window views are gorgeous and the heated master bath floor is a surprise treat! The kitchen is outfitted with everything you could possibly need. We will definitely be back - loved this place!

Wonderful!

Everyone in our group (grandparents to teens) agree this was the ideal place for our trip. Handy enough to enjoy the activities in/around Durango while also getting to enjoy being on our own in the mountains. We enjoyed yoga/grilling/drinks on the deck with nothing but trees, mountain views and the occasional turkey/deer in view.

North Pole Adventure

Our family had a perfect long weekend at the “North Pole”! Toddler enjoyed the spacious cabin and making a snowman in the yard. Dog enjoyed space to roam and smell the fresh mountain air. Mom, Dad, and infant enjoyed the awesome couch. Kitchen was fully stocked and we had everything we needed. Beautiful cabin - in the mountains but a short drive from historic downtown and railroad. Door dash delivered food. Will visit again!

Cabin in Durango

Cabin was great. We arrived when it was still light outside, could see how it would be difficult when arriving in the dark. The area is a little remote. Cabin was clean and had plenty of space for our family of 6. Well appointed and well stocked. My young daughters loved the swing chair in the corner by the window. The view was amazing. The location proved to be perfect for visiting Mesa Verde National Park. And close enough to town for groceries, etc. I would definitely stay again if we were in the area.
