The house is conveniently located between Durango and Purgatory Ski resort so it was easy for us to get to the lifts when they opened as well as make the grocery runs into town.

We only had one small issue while there and the management company responded very quickly. They are very nice people. We spent a lot of time outdoors at this property. The rivers were full and the lawn beautifully manicured. The kids loved the basketball court and game room downstairs. I would definitely stay here again! ##### Steve M.

Surroundings have beautiful scenery. Cleanliness in actual house was pathetic. Floors full of dust, mice poops,Bugs on top of beds and a dead mice in one of the rooms. Bed Sheets smelled really bad and upstairs house heater really doesn’t get to two rooms, so it gets very cold. Fireplace upstairs doesn’t work and we where not advised. Someone needs to supervise before guests check in if property mangers know that there are mice in area. ##### Sofia O.

Aug 13, 2022 #### 5 Stars The house was spacious, well laid out and met our needs for accommodating grandparents, adults and 2 teen boys. The kitchen was well supplied with dishes, flatwear, pots and pans as well as an outdoor gas grill. Everyone enjoyed the basketball court, we all enjoyed sitting by the Animus River during the day and after dinner. Because of its rural location, Wi-Fi was slow and sporadic which seemed to be related to internet traffic because it was great early in the morning. The hot tub was enjoyed by the adults. ##### John W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan M. Aug 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice house This is a very nice property with one shortcoming if you rent it for the summer time. There is no AC which makes the interior heat up during the day to 80+ degrees. The house has a lot of fans but it doesn’t cool the house during the day. Other than that it’s a very nice house. ##### Dan M. Stayed 11 nights in Jul 2024 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kellye K. Aug 13, 2017 #### Can't wait to go back! It was a great property for our large family. Everyone had plenty of space to spread out! Sitting next to the Anamias River is amazing especially in the cool morning with your coffee. We loved sitting in the hot tub in the cool evenings. Even with no AC the house was plenty cool in August. The house was close enough to downtown Durango and had everything we needed. I my suggestion would be to have a basketball that holds air. The kids played every night and had to air it up everyday. We had a few issues and they came out and fixed it immedialty. Great property we will be back. ##### Kellye K.

House needs a good bit of work, but the location is amazing. First let me start by saying the folks at Durango Colorado Vacations were top notch as always. We love working with them. We booked at the last minute and this was the only place available that would fit our crew at the time. Given that, it was a great get away with a great location. Unfortunately this home some upkeep issues or has been quite abuse by other guests. examples being broken doors/door hardware, broken windows/window frames and/or latches (letting cold air in), broken fireplaces. I would definitely suggest looking elsewhere for a place at this price. The WILLOWBROOK ESTATE, of instance, was in much better shape. ##### Randy F. ### 10/10 Excellent #### COLLEEN C. Aug 12, 2018 #### Missing this home and the river! Our family loved gathering in this beautiful home for two weeks! We sure are missing the sounds of the Animas River, especially at night. Full moon over the eastern Hermosa mountains and cliffs was spectacular as we sat around the fire pit next to the river. The home is very spacious and everyone had plenty of private space. My husband and I are also missing the 'killer' master bathroom suite! The kitchen is very well-stocked (only wish the vent hood insert was operational, as the first couple of days were a little warm in southern Colorado). But we survived and did some great baking on the wonderful outside grill. The beds and linens were wonderful; we slept like rocks! Loved the outdoor space -- massive beautiful lawn for all sorts of games. We brought yard darts and croquet, but there were several outdoor games provided in the spacious garage. The enormous 'cool' basement is awesome and was a haven on the first warm day or two. The location is very convenient to Durango and Purgatory activities...golf, shopping, hiking, and our personal favorite: jeep rides in the beautiful San Juan Mountains! A very big THANKS to Jen from Durango Colorado Vacations...she was extraordinarily quick with responding to our questions and kindly provided a couple of items that we requested. We will definitely keep this home at the top of the list for another trip to the Rockies. ##### COLLEEN C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lana H. Jan 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great memories The home was great and exactly as described. The location was great and the views were amazing seeing the snow, river, and mountains out the back door. There were a lot of great winter activities in the area for our enjoyment. We would definitely go back!! ##### Lana H.
