Annual Family Getaway

It is always a challenge to find a house to accommodate four generations for our annual get together. This house was perfect! Eric was very easy to communicate with both prior to our arrival and during our stay. He even let us use his children’s sleigh for our little people to ride down the hill by the house. The house was very clean and provided everything we needed for our stay. Five stars across the board. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Great location with proximity to town as well as to all the attractions North on the highway to Silverton. The house was nicer than expected as the pictures don't do it justice. Great views of the sunset at night while sitting on the deck.

Amazing mountain vacation home!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. The location was convenient to town but it still felt like a true mountain vacation. The house is stunning and had everything we needed and more. The view from the deck is gorgeous and it was so fun to see the trains go by. Everyone in our family from Grandpa down to our littlest one loved every minute we spent here and along with our Polar Express train ride, made this Thanksgiving our most memorable and magical ever! The owner was very welcoming and easy to communicate with, and he went above and beyond to help us out.

An Incredible Find in Durango

This home is Absolutely perfect for a large group. Was out in Durango for my son’s wedding. Easily slept 10 at this house. Beds were incredibly comfy. House had so much charm. Close to downtown Durango but far enough away to have great views and quiet. The host was outstanding. Just a friendly and available guy. Highly recommend renting this house in Durango. You will be happy you did.
