We love Durango and this property is awesome for our dogs.
5.0 / 5.0
My family (4 adults plus dog) spent a week at this delightful home. It is very spacious, and the decor is very attractive. Our group enjoyed the pool table, hot tub, the fire pit table, and the beautiful outdoor sitting areas. We loved sitting in the back to have cocktails, and we enjoyed all of the birds (hummingbirds, magpies and robins). The dog park near the Albertson’s was a great find. The owner obviously put a lot of thought into the house design and landscaping, and it shows. We would love to return for another visit.

We’ve been coming 2-3 times a year to visit our daughters since 2019 and have stayed in several places. We are all in agreement that this was definitely the best! I was a little worried it would be to far out of town but we were in downtown Durango in 10 minutes or less. It was actually nice to get away from the crowds and sit on the patio and have the beautiful view. We cooked several meals in the spacious kitchen and played pool and used the hot tub. So many great amenities. We will definitely book here again!

What a nice house with a very helpful, very responsive manager! The house was fully wheelchair accessible with plenty of space in all the rooms. As an advanced manual wheelchair user the ramp was a little steep, but functional. The master bedroom suite was very nice with an outstanding shower with plenty of room for a shower bench. The house was very clean with multiple high quality air purifiers. What a great experience - we will be looking to book this house again in the future!

This home was so much better than we expected! Beautiful, clean, spacious and extremely comfortable! The property manager responded to me in seconds and took care of everything we needed very quickly. So well stocked with everything you could need, including books and toys for our 3 girls! We will definitely be returning!

Julia’s home is the perfect family VRBO. It is comfortable, clean and they are such amazing people. If we ever get back down to Durango, we will be booking here again!

We had 11 family members stay from 6/9 —6/13,2024. This house is very clean and updated. The house and surrounding horse property are complete with all necessary amenities. Extra blow up mattress which we didn’t need. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor 2 patios, bbq grill and fire pit. The house has air conditioning and thankfully all the plumbing worked perfectly. We did a lot of cooking and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bonus room and hot tub were definitely a plus (extra room to spread out). Beds were comfy and we had plenty of extra blankets and linens. Location is ideal—away from noise and traffic yet close to Walmart, downtown and Lake Nighthorse. Durango Hot Springs is 20 mins away and a must for adults and children. We definitely recommend this Peaceful Ranchette for your next vacation stay.

This is a beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood just outside of town.
We loved seeing the birds and wildlife in the backyard while enjoying our morning coffee.
This was perfect for our little getaway to visit family in town. We will definitely stay here again if we get the chance.

This house is so well decorated and maintained. On top of that it is so well stocked for families with kids of all ages. The wildlife is an added bonus and the host is really responsive and nice. We will book this again in the future! We loved our vacation here!
5.0 / 5.0
Our stay here was the best. The house was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and the pool table, wanting to come back to the house at the end of the day instead of going into town for dinner. Thank you for making our stay in Durango a memorable experience.
5.0 / 5.0
We had the BEST experience here. I really enjoyed how baby/kid friendly the whole house was. I also loved all of the “little things” that made a big difference to me. The hostess was super sweet and even messaged me after we left and told me we left a blanket and asked if I wanted her to mail it to me. 1000/10 experience. We will be back.

This is the most accommodating place we have ever stayed! The view on the way in is amazing! The property manager was very responsive & helped with everything we needed. We were worried about being snowed in and they were very helpful with that as well. Place is much bigger than it looks and the kids lived the game room! Thanks for such a great stay!

Would HIGHLY recommend 😄

This was the perfect property for our Christmas getaway! The house and yard were gorgeous and the proximity to town was perfect. We can’t wait to come back!
5.0 / 5.0
This property was perfect!! Everything you could need was there! After long days of exploring and hiking, coming back to Meadowlark Court was perfect! From the hot tub to all the different family games included was like home! I would definitely recommend this property over any other in the Durango area. You are surrounded by horse farms and Mountain View’s. We had to call the property manager with a question and she answered immediately and was super nice and helpful!
We are so thankful this property was available for our trip!!
5.0 / 5.0
Durango was wonderful and what added much to our stay was where we stayed. The home was perfectly set up, the surroundings were so very peaceful, loved walking around and seeing the horses, deer and fox.
When not going around the town and further out for hiking etc., this home was filled with fun things to do. We did puzzles, played pool and spent time sitting and relaxing on the well accommodated porch! Though we did not use it there was a great grill one could use.
As for communication with the property overseer, she was very prompt!!!! Though never a big problem at all!! 😊 Would go there again!! M

House was nice in a great rural neighborhood.
The property had great amenities and a great setting. Each morning or evening deer would come and eat grit off the trees.
The home was 15 minutes from town and other activities like zip lining and river rafting.
Would recommend this property for a nice get away to relax in cool Durango
5.0 / 5.0
We truly enjoyed this property for our vacation, everything we needed was available, from being able to cook, relax on the porch, TV's in multiple rooms, game room with pool table and Xbox (our son loved that), and being able to wash laundry.
We had visits from a fox, deer and hummingbirds. There is a spa as well, which we intended to use, but never did because we had too much fun with other things.
If you are spoiled like us, you need to be aware that cooling is provided by a swamp cooler and there is a trick on how to utilize it properly. Places like this do not often need an A/C and swamp coolers work just fine.
We had dogs with us, which was one of the reasons why we chose this property, and we followed the instructions to always supervise our dogs, because a fox and deer came by to visit as well as the neighbors have dogs and we wouldn't want anything to happen to neither. Another reason is that the fencing (or gate) would not be able to keep any dog on the property. So, if you travel with your pet, be aware and follow the provided instructions.
We loved the place and would come back again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay. Ava, the property manager, was very responsive to our guestions. It was our first time in a VRBO property and from what others have told us, this property went above and beyond what most do. It was very well stocked with supplies, and after a week, it was restocked as needed. The master bed, pillows, linens were very comfortable and great quality. The location was in the middle of horse properties and it was beautiful. We took a walk every morning/night and the neighbors were friendly and welcoming - and you never know how that's going to work when you are a short-term renter. It was great. We really enjoyed the hot tub too! We're from the desert so the dogs loved lying in the grass. At night we'd sit on the patio for dinner, and when it got dark the stars were spectacular. It was a great experience. Thank you!

The house was very clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need. My kids really enjoyed playing with all the toys in the game room. The beds were very comfortable and the spa room was an added plus! We hope to stay here again during our next visit!

Our family of six traveled and loved this home. Our kids loves having the games to play and enjoyed swinging on the outdoor swing set. I loved reading a book on the back patio and having s’mores as a family! The home is clean, well organized, and thoughtfully put together. The location was great with about a ten minute drive to most of the activities we participated in.

We stayed at this property with another family and it was perfect. The house is extremely well appointed and it’s apparent the owners have put a great deal of thought into the decor and amenities. The kids had a blast. The location is close to town for convenience but is quiet and private. The owners and property manager were very responsive to any questions. We highly recommend this lovely home.

This is such a peaceful, relaxing home and land. See the wildlife running across the roads in the evening. Just far enough from town to feel isolated but with full access to shopping & groceries! Husband had a medical emergency on our last night. Julia as more than understanding! We will be back!

Wonderful property and indoor space. Everything was clean, organized and ready to go. No complaints and plan on returning. Plenty of games and toys for the kids to keep entertained. Very kid friendly home.

We planned a quick trip to Durango right before Christmas. This house was perfect for us!!! It’s a few miles outside of town, which is great after a day out and about!! The hot tub was fabulous!! There literally wasn’t anything that we thought of that the house didn’t have! Plenty of dishes, utensils, every cooking dish or item you could need, and there is plenty of space to spread out!! Definitely one of the best properties we’ve stayed at!! Highly recommended!!

This place was so perfect! It is about 15 minutes outside of Durango with lots of open land near and very quiet. The owners did such a great job making sure this house had everything you would need (games, kitchen items, blankets, etc). They also have an indoor hot tub room which was an awesome sunny space. We loved it!
5.0 / 5.0
This was our first time staying in Durango and I was unsure where to stay. This location was perfect! We live in a very large city and wanted a quiet getaway and this place was perfect. The neighbors were off in the distance and we had peace and quiet. We arrived to a nice handwritten note from the property manager and the amenities provided were top-notch. The house has so much space and activities for all ages. Our 5 year old loved the game and toys provided, including the swings in the backyard, my husband loved the pool table. All of us enjoyed the spacious property, including my 76 year old mother and her little dog. The property manager was friendly and responded to all inquiries within minutes. We will definitely be back to stay again!
