A large well-stocked house - perfect for a family or friends gathering. The house was clean and any questions we had were promptly answered. We had a great time and would definitely stay again!

Very nice big space. We had two families get together and we enjoyed the many bedrooms and bathrooms. The communal spaces were well furnished and enjoyable to gather in. The kitchen was well equiped and we had an easy time using the grill. The mountain location was beautiful and a nice break from the heat. I can easily recommend this place to others.

Had a great time! Property was very accurately described. We had an issue with the hot water upstairs but it was addressed quickly. The altitude was a problem for some of us coming from Florida and Texas. The kitchen was great and well stocked! Would suggest you make the downstairs bedroom more adult friendly so older guests don’t have to climb the stairs. All in all a great place for large families.

Everything was great, except it was a little warm and the yard hasn’t been mowed all year.
They said it was a short walk to the river you couldn’t get through. It was so overgrown and trees had falling in the path. My husband went through and cleared it.

House is in beautiful, serene location. Well laid out with large kitchen, deck, and front lounge area. Bedrooms are spacious. Marked and steep trail down to river for those brave enough to try it. Kitchen had plenty of utensils, two dishwashers, and all appliances but could use a few more basics (salt, sugar, etc) for short stay guests. One of the bathrooms had intermittent hot water during our stay. Was not a big deal and so did not communicate or expect to have it fixed during our stay. Highly recommend the house for location and serenity.

Overall the stay was pleasant. The cabin was laid out nicely with four upstairs rooms with two bathrooms and one bedroom with two bathrooms on the main floor. The only thing I would change about the room situation is making the downstairs room a master suite instead of the room with two twins. This way older people or people with bad knees could use this room instead of climbing stairs to share a queen bed. The kitchen has a huge island, two ovens, two dishwashers, and plenty of kitchen ware for any cooking you plan on doing. There is a two tier deck that is nice for enjoying a morning coffee watching the sunrise. However, we found no lights for outside at night so this would be something that would be nice to enjoy the deck in the late evenings. The location of the cabin is excellent. Just what we wanted tucked away in a secluded valley with a river close by. You could hear the water running in the river from the deck outside. Very peaceful. I’d definitely stay here again.

The property has amazing views! There were 11 of us and everyone had plenty of room. The path to the creek is overgrown and a little treacherous, but everyone (but me) participated in the adventure. A few of the outdoor furniture pieces could be replaced and I recommend some kind of room deodorizer for when the place sits empty for awhile. Manager was aware of two other issues we were concerned about. We would definitely return!

This was probably the most unique VRBO we’ve stayed, in the 25+ years we’ve rented VRBOs! The grandkids loved the lofts in the bedrooms!The reasons we’re not giving all 5s are: no air conditioning and not all windows worked well; weak WIFI; and confusing light switches. Being in our mid 70s, a grab bar in the master bath would have been very helpful.

Overall, a very enjoyable weekend with kids & grandkids. Grandkids loved the house & wanted to stay forever! Adequate indoor & outdoor space for our group. Several does with new fawns was the highlight Saturday morning. A couple of things that were not so great: door out to the deck is very warped & difficult to open & close, upstairs far bedroom window was hanging on on 1 hinge, the kitchen floor was not clean, & the trail down to the river was so overgrown that we could not use it & the kids really wanted to hike down, trash bins were full so we had to pile on top. Just little things that could be fixed but we had a great time!

Enjoyed it very much, house was wonderful. I would have liked to have had a master bedroom downstairs. Bathroom plugs wouldn't work, even after trying the reset. It did not slow us down as we are very adaptable. Would recommend and stay again.

Upon arrival at this mountain property, all 8 of us were saying WOW!!! This is AWESOME! The inside of the home was as pictured and even more amazing as we went from room to room. The atrium is just a beautiful add to the rest of the home. The pool table saw lots of fun action. Outside games were played in the large side yard. And the BBQ got some fun use as well. All around.....10+++++

This was a great house for us. Plenty of beds and the view of the mountains from the deck was spectacular. The kitchen is huge with 2 ovens, 2 dishwashers, two refrigerators and a gas grill on the second deck. Upon arrival I discovered that the propane tank ro the grill was empty. I emailed the management company and they had it promply replaced. The property is approximately a 15 minute drive to downtown Durango, so you will need your own transportation if you stay here. I would definitely stay here again.

This vacation home is amazing. Lovely, cozy, comfortable. The 2+ story atrium fills the house with natural light. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms !! And the kitchen is wonderful. Kitchens are supposed to be the heart-center of the household, right? This well-appointed kitchen with its oversized center island is the perfect gathering space for the family. The views of the LaPlata mountains and canyon are magnificent.

We had 13 family members staying with us this past July 4th week. The house is amazing, lots of room for everyone. The atrium is wonderful, we watched a beautiful lightning storm one night. On July 4th, we had our family reunion over for a roasted turkey dinner. With the outside patios included we were able to comfortably seat 29 people. The location of this property is perfect as we have relatives that live right next door. The caretaker even mowed a path for us to use between the properties.

Beautiful Home!
This home was perfect for our large family gathering! It offers a variety of bedroom choices, lots of space inside and outside, and stunning views in every room in the home! We loved sitting outside on the deck! The home was immaculate, organized and ready for guests!

Beautiful, Clean and Well-Appointed!
This house was even better in reality than the photos on the website! It was roomy, well-appointed, clean and situated in a beautiful place. I have no complaints about my stay, but I wish the room layout had been better explained: From the photos it seems like some rooms have sleeping lofts, and that maybe that some bedrooms are only accessible through another bedroom. In fact, due to the unusual architectecture, each room does have loft but with no furniture. Each room is private.

Incredible
The home was amazing! Everything was more than what we expected. The only thing I would say was a little frustrating, was the amount of bugs in the home, especially when trying to sleep, there were bugs imposing on the beds. Other than that I would say everything was top notch. I would definitely book this property again.

Gret Stay!!
The stay at the house was great! We were very comfortable knowing everything was provided for cooking; bathing; and even having breakfast out on the patio. I wished we would have stayed longer.
I enjoyed watching the mamma deer and and her fawns every morning in our front yard.

4th of July was a hit here
Excellent home, view spectacular, well stocked kitchen. Clean/ clean/ clean!! Back door needs a bit of Wd 40. Squeaky for sneaking out for early morning coffee to hear the river and the birds. Convenient to Mesa verde and Ouray. Horse back riding and rafting. Durango is cute town.

Great spot to unwind after Race Across the West
This was the landing spot in the Durango area for our crew and rider who completed Race Across the West. Plenty of space to relax - both inside and out. Great layout made this work out very well for such a large group.
Would definitely stay here again!

Our 3 families with teens had a great time at this property. This house is in the San Juan mountains and is minutes away from great hiking, exploring, and some beautiful waterfalls. The house is great for multiple families- we were grateful for the 2 refrigerators, 2 ovens, and 2 dishwashers. We cooked almost every meal at this house over a week, and it was well outfitted for our needs. This is probably the most well organized VRBO house I have ever stayed at, with plenty of space inside and outside... and very quiet except for the sounds of nature- we had a great time!

We stayed at the cabin for 2 nights, and it was the perfect stopover on our trip from Texas to New Mexico to Northern Colorado -- just a few minutes from Durango and very close to Mesa Verde National Park. The home is HUGE and would be ideal for a large gathering, and the pool table was a big hit with our kids. Additionally, when we called about having the driveway ploughed, the caretakers arrived promptly to help shovel a clear path out for our car, which was greatly appreciated.
Be aware though that the cabin has no basic staples for cooking (salt, pepper, etc) so you'll need to buy/bring everything, which is a bit annoying but not a deal-breaker. My only other (very minor) criticism is that the kitchen knives are so dull I couldn't dice an onion. (There's a honing rod, but that doesn't make the blade sharper.) If you're not planning to cook, this isn't important, but if you are, this makes it difficult.
Our stay was great, though, and we'd love to come back with friends someday.

The house is absolutely beautiful the pictures online don't do justice, because its even more impressive in person. My party of 11 was fed and entertained for nearly 4 whole days with the amenities provided and we wouldn't ask for anything different. The surrounding land is so beautiful as we took many walks and explored the creek and everything. I just want to say thank you so much for making our stay the absolute best. You guys went above and beyond with what we needed in making our experience absolutely the best. Everyone in my party loved the house and everything about it and there were talks of coming back as soon as we could. Thank you so much for your hospitality and amazing customer service. The house and the overall experience went above and beyond our expectations and can't wait to make a trip back.
