Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at Between the Waters last week.The property was exactly as described, even better - very clean , well stocked, very warm and inviting and the interior decor is a sight in and of itself! Great location to Durango and all the other sites in the area. If you're looking for a quiet escape, this is it - just sit out on the back porch and immerse yourself in the 24x7 sounds of the rolling Florida river just steps away. The property management was very attentive and responded quickly if needed. We had absolutely no issues with this unit and would love to return in the future. ##### Bill P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ernie G. Jul 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Between the Waters stay The house is set 30 feet from the creek and is so lovely. The sound of the creek is so enjoyable from the deck, inside when the screen in used and will lull you to sleep in your bed. The evergreens in the area make the air smell so fresh. The house was clean and has been decorarated in a Western and Native American motif. We loved all the decorations. We spent quite a lot of time playing cards on the deck. It was quality family time. There are many things to do in the area and downtown Durango is really cool! The only drawback was the uncomfortable futon in the guest room. We even bought a pad to make it softer but it needs to be replaced with a real comfortable bed. ##### Ernie G. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Adam W. Jun 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Family Vacation The property is in a great location next to the Florida River just steps from the patio. The property was clean with nice amenities inside, however the outside needs cleaning. IE, power washing the patio because of the cob webs and bird droppings. Landscaping was not maintained and was over grown. Cell phone coverage was non existent which wouldn’t have been a problem but the house phone and WiFi were also not working. We did contact property management after arriving with no resolution the entire week of our stay, even after repeated inquiries. This wouldn’t have been a problem but with no cell reception a local land line was needed in case of emergencies. Other than the few issues it was a wonderful stay. ##### Adam W.

Aug 3, 2023 #### meh, overpriced Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The river out back is the best feature - really nice to sit on that deck. The house itself is cluttered, beds are very uncomfortable, and the kitchen is stuffed with gadgets and utensils from the 1980s. Clear out the junk, replace with better beds, and drop the price. As it is, it's way too far from Durango (15-20 minutes drive) and the house itself is not comfortable enough to be worth this price. Won't return, don't recommend. PS: Figure out the actual trash deal - the neighbors have had to pay over $400 for the collection of trash left near their trash "on the opposite side of the road" per the house instructions. ##### Christopher C. ### 8/10 Good #### Amanda B. Jul 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### River Retreat Near Endless Adventure We enjoyed our stay at Between the Waters. We fell asleep each night to the sounds of the rushing Florida River - it was amazing! We booked the property as a jumping off point for our Durango area adventures. We hiked at Vallecito Lake, biked the Animus River trail through Durango, rode the D&SNG RR's Cascade Canyon train, enjoyed the dinner show at the Bar D Ranch (highly recommend!), spent an afternoon enjoying the wibbit on Lake Nighthorse, and took a whitewater rafting trip on the Animus River. We were mostly at Between the Waters to eat and sleep, but we did book it also for the fishing opportunities in the river and at the neighborhood pond during the evenings. We aren't used to river fishing, so we didn't have any luck there. As for the pond...unfortunately, the neighborhood association pass that was left to access the pond was out of date (by 2 years), and residents at the pond turned us away when we went to use it. That was a big disappointment for our kiddos. We reached out to the management company, but the issue wasn't resolved before our week's vacation was up. But the home was lovely...lots of history on the walls. The one other thing I would mention is that the third bedroom's bed was a pretty hard futon mattress. My 12 year old still slept ok, but I somehow didn't realize that it wasn't an actual bed from the photos. Overall a great home with plenty of kitchen counter space, a dinner table large enough for our family of six, and a wonderful home! ##### Amanda B. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Christine R. Sep 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location, Disappointing beds, Lots of items. Quiet neighborhood, beautiful view & close to town. We always stay in vacation rentals when visiting Durango. Note, before your stay: To be clear, 3rd bedroom is NOT a “Double” but in fact a FUTON. All mattresses should be replaced bc they were terrible, especially the futon. The week’s rent could easily replace all mattresses & elevate the rental. It’s a shame since this is probably the only thing keeping us from staying here again. Could easily be our go-to place. Owners should replace the kitchen utensils with a few good ones as opposed to tons of old & unusable ones. House has no pantry basics - cooking oil/spray, seasonings, foil, saran wrap etc. a first I’ve seen in a rental. Perhaps the cleaning crew throws out everything after each visitor? Plan ahead before you stay. Kitchen appliances - stove, fridge and microwave were quite new and fully functioning! While I’m sure the decor in the home took decades to acquire, there is truly SO MUCH stuff in this house and it feels overly cluttered and rugs throughout don’t lay flat despite beautiful hardwood floors. The MOST BEAUTIFUL decor were the Glidden paintings depicting Colorado landscapes. These stunning pieces should be the focal point of home's décor, truly. Kudos to the artist - they were incredible. House was shockingly clean for the amount of decor. You’d expect you’d find items covered with dust, however they were not. Bathrooms spotless. Plenty of seating areas for everyone and quite comfortable for 4-6 people. ##### Christine R.
