About this house rental
Come enjoy this beautiful and recently updated cabin in the woods. The Quakie Cabin is tucked in the back of a gorgeous, gated neighborhood with Elbert Creek and the San Juan National Forest in the backyard. Only 5 minutes from skiing and less than 30 minutes from downtown, you have the serenity of being up in the mountains, while only being a short drive away from all Durango and Purgatory have to offer. We also offer discounts for extended length stays, message me for more details!

Everything was perfect! Cant recommend enough. The location is great too; easy drive to Silverton and Durango. Wish we could pack up the cabin and make it our own forever home!

Trip was great. 3 families of old neighbors annual ski trip for new years. We had 11 people and was comfortable to stay. We did wish the couch in lower level was sleeper sofa as two boys slept on couch though they are kids so who really cares.
House has great natural lighting. You do need 4wd in winter. We had no snow and base of mountain was only 20” so slopes were a bit dicey but again nothing to do with house.
We’d definitely stay here again and working with owner and communication there was great.

Loved the layout and beauty of the home and the area. Sledding on the property. Plenty of space. The pictures don’t do this place justice. We will be back.

My family and I stayed for a month and had the best time. We were immediately comfortable in the house and really appreciated things like Morgan providing enough baby gates to keep our 16 month old from going up/down the many stair cases on the main floor. The house is also located near a beautiful trailhead that you can get to from the neighborhood, which we walked a few times a week.
Morgan was incredibly responsive to all my questions and checked in with me a few times during our stay. We would definitely stay in this home again.

No property is perfect but we were very satisfied with the property. The property manager was very attentive and seemed to be genuinely concerned with us having a full feeling experience

Great location, immaculate upon arrival, and the kitchen was so well stocked! Loved the hill outside for sledding!

We had an absolutely lovely stay at this property. It had everything we needed and then some. I'd love the ability to return one day. If I could give the property 6 stars for the aspens I would. We travelled with a 2 year old, 8 year old, 10 year old, 11 year old, and some 40 something year olds over my birthday weekend. They had kid toys, an amazing hide and seek house. Well appointed kitchen, maybe the best we've come across in all of our VRBOs, and such a beautiful place. Comfy beds and plenty of space. Would definately recommend you book this property!

It is so beautiful! The surroundings are like being in the forest, we even heard a bobcat growling! The home is stunning, beautiful and comfortable! We didn't need or want for anything, the only thing is the stairs are pretty steep and we had a 14 mo but the owner was kind enough to purchase baby gates for our stay! Morgan is super nice and responsive and caring! Would stay there again! Thank you again Morgan!!

Purgatory dream home
This home is absolutely gorgeous! My only regret is that we didn’t take the time for enough photos. One of the nicest places we have stayed! The owner is so helpful and accommodating! We loved our stay.
