Overall the home's location and views were fantastic. We were somewhat disappointed with the cleanliness of the floors and the home overall feeling worn. We ran into a number of issues including the microwave not working, the second floor shower was inoperable, the grill had not been cleaned, floor mats in the master bath were dirty, etc. Besides these details we greatly enjoyed our stay.

Unique multi-layer layout with fabulous views. House was comfortable and met our needs, but… Parts were great-spa tub, sauna, heated floor, fire burning fireplace, loft, balconies. Parts were also not great-minor annoying broken parts here and there, nasty vent hood, junky pantry and garage, shabby LR furniture. With a little more care it could be so much more.

Beautiful property close to the slopes! If you are not in the mountains to ski, this may not be the property for you just due to the access to dining, shopping, etc. But if you are looking to ski Purgatory, this location is fabulous! Beautiful home, Stunning views and very attentative property management. However the stairs are no joke: if you have someone in your group who is not fully able to handle stairs, this may not be the property for you. But it was great for us! We Will be coming back!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Having stayed at this property annually for over 10 years, it is the perfect gathering spot for the family dinners. The large open Great Room is very comfortable and the large Wolf cooking range with it's two ovens is perfect.

We had a large group stay and it slept everyone comfortably. Beautiful place and great location. We did have some trouble getting up the icy driveway in our rental vans.. they provided salt which helped, the kitchen counters wasn’t very clean, (we gave them a good cleaning upon arrival) Over all the house was clean and neat. There is a lot of stairs (the elevator was locked) so if you have knee problems just a warning that this may not be for you. We had some minor issues. The kitchen filtered water was very slow (like the filter needed changed) and the faucet hot water took 25- 30 mins to get hot enough to do dishes, the Dryer wouldn’t dry clothes very well (again just needed a deep vent cleaning) and the jacuzzi tub felt a little dirty.. we only uses it once so no deal breaker there! We Loved loved the master suite. It had lots of privacy and we enjoyed the sauna and steam shower. (I have trouble breathing high altitude so we used the steam shower every day)! We would definitely stay here again. You can’t beat the views and the convenience of getting to the slopes!

I’ve been to this property 4 times. Over all it is a good experience. There are just a few inconveniences that I would like to address. First, the hot water was not working due to the propane company not being able to service the tank. I understand it was due to weather but still annoying to be forced to take a cold shower. Second, the dry sauna has been out of service every time I’ve ever been to this property. It would be nice if this can be fixed and usable. And finally, it would be nice if the overall property could be spruced up. The first time I visited the property was in 2013 and even though it is still a nice house, it seems like it hasn’t changed much since then. Same bed spreads, curtains, etc…

We really want to love this property and hope that the owners and property managers put the necessary love, money, and time into making it shine again. Check in was smooth but upon entering we realized we were told incorrect information: the main floor is a flight of stairs up and we had someone in a wheelchair. The person who answered our initial, pre booking questions, obviously had never been in the property. There is an elevator but it is broken. The biggest disappointment was that all of the blinds on the main floor, with the mountain views, were broken. The property manager said that maintenance would come the following day to fix them, but they never came at all. The cloth upholstery of the stools, pillows and bedspreads were very dusty and the dishwasher didn't clean the dishes. The window screens allow gnats in, but need to be open as there's no air conditioning in the summer. As mentioned in other reviews, there is a hot water situation- it takes 10 minutes to get hot water on the upper levels and the kitchen sink's hot water doesn't work (on the plus side the shower water pressure is fantastic). The ice machine is broken. The family room speakers are broken. Several light switches are broken. Also the place only has 3 private bedrooms (the queen and bunk bed rooms on the entry level, and the main floor queen). All bathrooms are shared. The basement level master and en suite double/queen is not private (no door to shared master bath and the double/queen entry door is inside the master). There's only parking for 2 small to mid sized vehicles. We felt neglected by the property managers but our friend group was awesome and we had an amazing time regardless. The neglected castle became a sort of a joke and the broken things just became funny. If the place was less expensive it would all be acceptable, but at nearly $900 per night, we give the place 2 stars.

We enjoyed a wonderful week in Durango. The house was perfect and all minor issues/questions were addressed quickly. Views from the three decks were breathtaking!

We enjoyed our stay, it was a quiet atmosphere, with easy access to Durango & Silverton. There are a lot of stairs in this house, so be prepared. The master bedroom is two flights down from the main living area. Also it took a while to get hot water to the bathroom, but if you turn on the shower, it speeds up the process. Overall we enjoyed our vacation time in this home.

The property gave good directions on how to get into the home, the home was clean, there were plenty of amenities for cooking. We went at the end of summer, but would like to return in the winter for skiing because it is a hop, skip and jump from the ski slopes.
We had to fumble with the sauna a little bit but over all it worked well and was a treat after a long day exploring and rafting.

Our family spent a week at the Cantilever Lodge. We had a wonderful time and experience. Would absolutely recommend this property for you and your family.

Great home. Plenty of room. We had 8 adults and 4 teens. Beautiful views. There are 4 levels. For those looking at this property, one needs to be able to walk steps. The elevator was locked. We had no problems. Great place.

It was a easy process the management company was phenomenal, wonderful to work with. We had a blast’n

Everything went very smoothly and was everything the property was advertised for. Great location. Great scenery. Highly recommend.

The house was clean and as described. We enjoyed our time there with family and would rent the house again if in the area.

The only problem was the washing machine leaking. Everything else was wonderful. The host was quick to respond and sned maintenance when needed.

A large group of our friends rented this property to stay at while we explored Colorado via motorcycle. The place was great except that one of the queen bedrooms is strangely located within the master suite, offering zero privacy for sleeping or using the bathroom. Luckily one couple had cancelled and we were able to make do with the remaining bedrooms. That strange configuration should be made more clear. Other than that, it’s a lovely house and we enjoyed our time!

This place is definitely one of a kind with great architecture and views! Great for large families and close to the slopes.
