The house was located about 10 minutes outside of Durango. It was an easy drive to get to the downtown area. The house itself is located in an older neighborhood but nice and spacious. There was plenty of room for eight of us. It did not have air conditioning but many homes in Colorado don’t. It did appear as if it might be having something installed soon though. Overall we had a great stay!
4.6
First impressions weren't great, the house didn't have a/c and was very warm but after opening some windows cooled down, it also had a strong chemical cleaner smell and the basement a bit of a pet odor, most of the cleaner and pet smell dissipated after airing the house out. Communication with the property manager was good and the overall of the stay was good. On a positive note the beds were very comfortable.
4.6

Overall, absolutely wonderful place and great host! The property was perfect and the house had everything to help make our stay great. The host responded quickly and helped clarify any questions my group and I had. Wonderful location!

Check-in process was super smooth! The owner was available and communication, exchange of information was effortless. I would recommend this rental to families who have various activities in and around Durango.
4.6
The house, though old, was very clean and roomy enough for our family of 6. The downstairs provided a nice play area for the kids. The kitchen area met all of our needs. We needed to contact the owner and she was easy to reach. I would recommend this property. Durango is a great vacation spot!

Be warned. There is no AC there, and it was in the 90s there in July. There were a couple of fans, but just circulated hot air. Couldn't open all the windows because some had no screens, and some screens had holes big enough for insecs to come through. We didn't have access to the closet in the front bedroom. Abby keeps it locked for their personal use. Water pressure in front bedroom bathroom was very low in the shower. After that shower, i used the shower in the middle bathroom. The pingpong table was great! But when we tried to play pool, the table wouldnt keep stable. Comfortable living room, good kitchen area, beds were comfortable. Small dining table. It was a tight squeeze for the 7 of us to eat together.

What a cute, fun, and spacious home. Met the neighborhood cat we named “Post”! Beds were super comfy!
Hostess was kind enough to have to place for early check in and was communicative throughout the entire visit (beforehand) as we requested early check in a few days prior to check in.
Safest neighborhood ever! A 7 mile drive to the heart of historic downtown where shops are cute as heck and the community is super friendly.
Will stay again.

House was very nice. Has lots of room for large family. Only 10 min to downtown. Host Abby is very nice!
She went out of her way to bring two cooling fans to us!

Pros;
This is a great house for large groups. Many bedrooms with entertainment in the basement, ping pong, Foosball, mini pool table, etc. Location to Durango is excellent. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. There is any kitchen item/tool you could ask for. Great for cooking at home. There was a nice welcome basket for the gueasts and a digital message bored with local imformation which was usefull. Also the contact for the home is very responsive, helpfull and friendly.
Cons;
You must take into consideration the age of the house and that it is located in Durango Colorado;
The water pressure is only good in one upstarirs bathroom. There is no air conditioning (but a swamp cooler located inside the house was provided). There are missing screens on windows preventing the guest from opening more windows. There have been previous guests that did not respect the home and it shows on floors, paint inside the home and window/fence gate operation. Some bedding was stained that should be replaced.
Please note: none of the "cons" effected our stay. We had a great time. And I am sure if everything was perfect with the home, it would cost a bit more.
4.6
The property was just as presented - good for larger families. The house is very tech savvy with a many tv’s and hi speed WIFI.
I was surprised that West Durango has zero retail, not a gas station or convenience store, so everything required a trip into Durango proper.

Our family of 12 stayed in this house and we never ran out of room. The rooms are perfect sizes, the top floor is beautiful decorated and love the 2 restrooms on top. The basement was the kids favorites, they had enough room to lay down and watch movies or even play board games. The adults played games on the ping pong table etc this house is really perfect as a big family. We loved this house so much, if your looking for a family house this is it it has great ammenties, space and the location was great. 5 min from Hesperus ski resort and only 15 min from town. We enjoyed making breakfasts in the kitchen, it had everything we needed. Even has a smoker pit which we were excited that was provided. The living room and basement both have Tv so we were able to have movie night for the adults and kids at the same. The basement is perfect for movies and play time for the kids. The tiny bottom kitchen is perfect for any extra space you need, or for movie snacks etc. Definitely give this house a 5 star it made our experience to Durango even better having a house that we loved and enjoyed coming back to every night.

Nice layout with 5 rooms, great for 8-10 people, and friendly neighbors.
