Awesome and totally cozy spot
Love the location and the off street parking. It was so nice and cozy, and the location is stellar. The house was spotlessly clean and all of the little extras were there. We’ll absolutely stay here again. This is our new favorite in Durango. We go down there every couple of months and we’re looking forward to a repeat!

This cozy location is the perfect spot - downtown, restaurants, shopping, park and more are all just a short walk away. The property manager is very friendly, responsive and always willing to help even if it's just recommending local sites to see.

Modern meets historic
This was such a great place to stay in Durango! The location is just a block up from the appealing downtown area. Very convenient to walk to breakfast or dinner or shopping - you name it! We loved the apartment which is in a very historic building- the interior space is cleverly designed. It’s a nice mix of modern and historic, and done so very artistically. Lots of great artwork adorns the space- Very clean. There is nice outside courtyard to enjoy sunshine. Very quiet. I would definitely stay here again!

Great visit with family
Our stay at the Stonehouse was fantastic! Comfy bed, enough space to move around, able to prep our own food, good shower, great location and a large garden with lounge furniture as well as a deck with grill made for great socializing space. Location made grocery shopping, going out to eat and exploring all the downtown had to offer very accessible. Had a great time and plan to return! J&J, Boston

About the host

Hosted by George Schmidt

Host profile image
I moved to Durango right out of high school in 1991. I waited tables at a restaurant for three months before deciding I needed to do more. I went to college, and then lived and worked in NYC for twenty years before finally making it back to Durango in 2010.
I'm an Artist, and a builder, and the Stonehouse gave me the opportunity to bring these two skills together. A gut renovation that I began in 2010 left the historic vibe of the building intact, while allowing me to totally update all the mechanical systems. I love mountain biking on the trails around town, hiking, backpacking, rafting, and exploring the deserts and mountains with my partner Amber Johnson, a Durango Native (that rare breed!) that i'm lucky enough to share my adventures with.

Why they chose this property

The Stonehouse Studio is a unique downtown property that is super close to Main Street, but provides a remarkable feeling of seclusion, even in the heart of busy downtown Durango. A Durango landmark, it was built in the 1890's making it one of the oldest buildings in town. After completion of a major renovation in 2010-12, I completely updated all the systems of the building while retaining the charming vibe of the nineteenth century stone building. There is a large private backyard, which is tucked away behind a fence and deck, but that offers views of the large trees in Buckley Park, right across the street. From the Stonehouse Studio you can walk anywhere you might want to go in downtown Durango. All the best restaurants and shops, galleries, bars and grocery stores are just minutes away on foot. All of the Mountain Biking Trailheads are easily accessed from downtown, and are there are literally hundreds of miles of trails you can access directly from the driveway in just a few minutes ride.
