An amazing home at the end of the street which offered a wonderful view of the river. It had the feel of being all alone in paradise. The layout of the home was great, and the kitchen was well equipped. The home was clean, my only complaint was it had several spider webs by TV and fireplace and I am terrified of spiders.
The first night we discovered that there was no heat in the primary bedroom downstairs and upstairs. I contacted property manager and she said to leave the doors open to try and heat up the rooms. She said thanks for letting us know but did not send anyone to fix the issue. We stayed 5 nights and the bedrooms were definitely cold.
Beautiful, clean and comfortable home in a good location.
The home is in a good location. We enjoyed the comfortable porch furniture while relaxing in the evening. The rushing river sound was so nice to hear through the night. The home had little extras that made it special. Having 2 master bedrooms with a bathroom was perfect for 2 couples.
I took my daughter, son-in-law and grandson to the mountains. The two guys had never been to the
Rockies. They were amazed at the views, the river, the flly-fishing and just the sights and sounds of the mountains.
The cabin was bigger than we needed, but I couldn't resist sitting on the deck and listening to the river. Would love to go back again.
Annual get together with all 10 family members. Great time reconnecting & having great quality family time. Enjoyed local activities (hiking, zip lining, fishing) and making sâmores on the incredible deck. Such a fun trip & such a great experience.
Durango is a wonderful community.
This is an extraordinary VRBO. Not only is the house clean, well appointed, and beautiful, but the setting is absolutely magical. If you have dreamed of stepping onto a back deck and being mere feet from a wildly flowing river, look no more! I slept with the bedroom window open each night, and have never heard a sweeter lullaby...provided by a river in the forest.
Pictures are very accurate, beautiful home. Comfortable, very much enjoyed by all 7 of my family members of all ages! We found that we had to space our showers out, ran out of hot water pretty quickly. It was not a big deal, we made it work. Attempted to make a fire, house filled with smoke even after opening the flue, texted property mgr. gave us some instructions with no success. No worries once again, we were happy with the outside fire pit. We all left feeling refreshed and balanced. Also, great location! Thank you for sharing your beautiful property!
Very relaxing home to sit and listen to the river and have a fire. Had a barbeque and sat outside just conversing, listening to the river and enjoying the peace and tranquility of our surroundings.
Our stay at the cabin was just wonderful & peaceful. The cabin was so comfortable and the river in the back made it extra wonderful. Thursday, Friday weather was cloudy and a little rain which is cabin weather, but Saturday morning woke up to snow....beautiful! Hung around the cabin and played games, the only thing negative was we could not get the fireplace lit, that would of been perfect with the snow. Oh well, we all still had a good time. In the evening we went to Steam Works for dinner....yummy. Overall, my family loved the cabin and we will be back, the property managers did a good job in communicating with us and arranging everything...thanks Casie. Thank the owners for sharing their beautiful cabin home with us. Now back to the city... until next time... The Atcitty family
Great Property other than a couple of issues. The fireplace does not operate properly. Saw that posted from an earlier guest so called the property manager to confirm that the issue had been addressed and was told that it had. It absolutely was not. Had the same problem with them oven.
The location is everything they claim. Nestling on the porch by the river was pure heaven. We were there the first week in Oct., and the Fall colors were on fiery display. I took over 500 photographs! The highlight for everyone was the Durango-Silverton steam locomotive ride. Just spectacular. We suggest taking the bus back to Durango because 6+ hours on the train is a bit much. The cabin is just as shown in the photos: fantastic and gorgeous. Two non-functioning features of the cabin keep it from getting 5 *s on our trip. We were unable to use the fireplace due to a flue blockage. The owner discounted the rate somewhat, but that was still a big disappointment. Check on this before you book. A non-functioning oven was also disappointing, but we're told the owners have a new one on order. Oct 2-7, 2023
SO peaceful, well-appointed & great for larger group
I've stayed at many VRBO's and this was probably my favorite! The home is conveniently located 20 mins out of Durango in a small, quiet neighborhood along the river. The house is oriented so that you cannot see other houses, and the rushing river creates an amazing, zen 24-hour white noise that is SO relaxing. High ceilings, tons of windows and simple, bright decor keep the interior light, bright, and airy. Highlights: 1. very well-stocked kitchen with utensils, dishes, staples 2. enough space for everyone gather in living/kitchen/porch area - but also to have privacy - four separate bedrooms plus a loft. 3. super easy cleaning & checkout procedure 4. huge back porch by the river for eating. lounging and gathering - simply amazing. Additionally, property mgrs were responsive and the home was very clean. For consideration: the rushing water is a risk for small children - this property might not be suitable for families with adventurous littles if you can't be sure you'll be watching them like a hawk. Everyone in our group was so happy with this property - I felt like such a hero for booking it :-)
This property is lovely. Itâs in somewhat of a neighborhood, but you wouldnât know once you get to the house. It feels very secluded from anyone and itâs the perfect place to relax with family!
The river behind the house was absolutely wonderful! You could feel the cool air off the water. We enjoyed our stay in the house and all our needs were met. We felt like we were staying in a family home! The nights were cool, very chilly in the morning, which we loved! Thank you for sharing your house!
Will be booking again! The outdoor space alone is worth it but the accommodations are equally wonderful! Location is amazing and while there are other houses around you donât feel crowded. Being at the end of the road is great! Been to several VRBOâs but none with a pantry so weâll stocked! The manager was very helpful. You canât go wrong with this rental!
We loved the cabin and the location! Great deck that faces the river and the living room has spectacular views. The bathroom floors needed more cleaning, but overall a great place! I would recommend it for sure!
Our family had an amazing time at this beautiful home! It was so clean and had everything we needed to cook meals and plenty of room out back to grill and play games. We will definitely be back!!!
Stayed the weekend before Thanksgiving to enjoy an early celebration. Always love spending time in this area outside Durango and this home was perfect for enjoying it all! Plenty of room for our family of nine for the three days. Kitchen was well stocked and plenty big. Family room allowed us to play charades all together. Everyone's bed was comfy and warm. No shoes policy allowed us to sport our holiday socks. There was a strong enough wifi connection for our daughter to submit her homework online (everyone else stayed off during that period). A little too cold to stay out on the beautiful deck, but still enjoyed the flowing river. Went to Vallecito Campground to hike around and saw amazing ice features that we'd never encountered before. A great time, in a great place. Thank you for sharing your home!
