This cabin is more beautiful than the pictures show. The layout was perfect, it was spotless, and better equipped—down to a coffee grinder and rice cooker—than most permanent residences. The views from the back deck are stunning, but the short trail from the backyard is the ultimate treat as it leads you through groves of aspens, pines, and wildflowers to its destination of a picnic area nestled into a hillside with a breathtaking lake view. We loved the private neighborhood that is close enough to Durango for quick drives into town and practically next door to Purgatory Resort. In short, not one of us wanted to leave. ##### Kimberly B.

It is beautiful, comfortable, thoughtfully organized and conveniently stocked. Beds were super comfy. We enjoyed hiking, Purgatory resort activities, Mesa Verde, Silverton and Durango. The hike to the overlook at the house everyday was an added bonus. Ice lakes was incredible. The table is big, comfortable and perfect for all of our board games in the evening. The deck was amazing, we enjoyed morning coffee/tea and evening drinks. If we weren’t grilling on the deck, area restaurants like James Ranch Grill were a must. Wonderful dark skies at night with an amazing view of the Milky Way galaxy and shooting stars were enjoyed by all ages. The abundant chipmunks were a source of constant entertainment for the kids. We are already trying to work out another trip to enjoy this house. ##### Wendy P. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joy W. Aug 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best vrbo We absolutely loved this home. Fabulous views just .2 miles away where we had several picnics. There were also beautiful views of the forest from the back deck and stunning skies full of stars every night. The home itself is new, clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The kitchen has everything you’d need. The bed and pillows are also super comfy. The owners have thought of many small extras to make you feel welcome. There was a bag of snacks, coffee and spices. There was also everything you’d need for the first few days of tp, toiletries, and such. I’ve already sent this listing to several friends and I plan on coming again. Don’t miss out on this mountain home. Also, the food at the Nugget bar is amazing, don’t be deterred by the way it looks. ##### Joy W.

They have thought of everything in the newly built cabin- the best feature that sets them apart on the inside of the property has to be the four bedrooms all with king beds! The black out blinds kept us snug in our rooms, an added bonus. We ate in nightly and they provided everything needed to cook and grill well, along with a staples-packed pantry. There were games and books, a cozy fireplace, a beautiful deck, and a lovely washer/dryer (with supplies!) that served us well after long days on the slopes and snowmobiling. The hot water was glorious for the whole family and there was plenty of it to bathe (huge tub up in the loft area and tub on the main level), or walk in showers in the master and in the loft area (with a view). On our March visit, the ample snow was perfect for snow-shoeing right outside the cabin on an easy trail through the national forest. The trail ends at “Vista Point”, a gorgeous spot overlooking breathtaking lake and mountain scenery. The owner had also built a sled run in the backyard which was very fun for the kids! I had to get some work done while there and Starlink wifi worked great. Easy peasy to access with in-room QR code provided. The owners are also very helpful and readily accessible with any questions. A new favorite spot for our family is the nearby hot springs. With multiple pools at different temperatures (and fun drinks), we all really enjoyed it and will definitely be back. Other good spots nearby are The Nugget Bar at the bottom of the hill (delicious sliders) and Olde Schoolhouse Pizza a couple of miles down the road. This property is right near Purgatory (chains/snow tires are a must in this high-incline neighborhood in ski season) and an easy drive into downtown Durango where we like to shop at the end of the trip. Coming home to a double garage to unload is another bonus! Can’t wait to visit again, would love to visit in another season to see wildflowers or fall colors! Highly recommend! ##### Kathy ### 10/10 Excellent #### John L. Jul 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best VRBO ever What a great place. Perfectly centralized between Silverton and Durango. Andrea is amazing and very attentive to any needs or requests. This is a perfect place for winter or summer use. Definitely the best VRBO my family has ever experienced. ##### John L.

We can’t say enough wonderful things about our stay at San Juan Retreat. The cabin is in a gorgeous location and an easy drive to downtown Durango and several different hiking areas. We were amazed at how well stocked the cabin is, from extra toothbrushes to every kitchen tool you could need. The 4 king beds are super comfortable and the rooms are spacious. The deck was one of our favorite spots to hang out and we loved watching the birds in the mornings! We wished we had stayed another few days! ##### McCown Family Vacation ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Kimpton Hotel Monaco Denver by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Kimpton-Hotel-Monaco-Denver.h139793.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Denver Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Denver-Downtown.h15849785.Hotel-Information) > > [INNhale Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Colorado-Springs-Hotels-INNhale-BB-Resort.h35612026.Hotel-Information) > > [The Broadmoor](https://www.expedia.ca/Colorado-Springs-Hotels-The-Broadmoor.h6096.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Denver Union Station, CO](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Denver-Union-Station.h32947984.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Denver at Colorado Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Denver-At-Colorado-Convention-Center.h1366244.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Westin-Denver-Downtown.h23697.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Denver](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Denver.h24031.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brown Palace Hotel and Spa, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Brown-Palace-Hotel-And-Spa.h14505.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Denver Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Denver-Downtown.h2787.Hotel-Information) > > [the Curtis Denver - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Curtis-Denver-A-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel.h19267.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Westminster](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Westin-Westminster.h444871.Hotel-Information) > > [Magnolia Hotel Denver, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Magnolia-Hotel-Denver.h50514.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Meridien Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Le-Meridien-Denver-Downtown.h17443003.Hotel-Information) > > [Warwick Denver](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Warwick-Denver.h6852.Hotel-Information) > > [St Julien Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Boulder-Hotels-St-Julien-Hotel-And-Spa.h1159623.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Sheraton-Denver-Downtown-Hotel.h8398.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Denver-Downtown.h11526513.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Avon-Hotels-Park-Hyatt-Beaver-Creek-Resort-And-Spa.h2227.Hotel-Information) > > [The St. Regis Aspen Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Aspen-Hotels-The-St-Regis-Aspen-Resort.h5594.Hotel-Information) > > [Aspen Mountain Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Aspen-Hotels-Aspen-Mountain-Lodge.h524.Hotel-Information) > > [Tru By Hilton Denver Downtown Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Tru-By-Hilton-Denver-Downtown-Convention-Center.h39639972.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Vail Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Vail-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Vail.h14937343.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Sonesta-Denver-Downtown.h6727.Hotel-Information) > > [Halcyon - a hotel in Cherry Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Halcyon-A-Hotel-In-Cherry-Creek.h14797469.Hotel-Information) > > [Snowflake Meadows](https://www.expedia.ca/Steamboat-Springs-Hotels-Snowflake-Meadows.h25007119.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Denver-Downtown.h84621.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Denver](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Denver.h3849336.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rally Hotel at McGregor Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Rally-Hotel.h64047016.Hotel-Information) > > [The Maven Hotel at Dairy Block](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Maven-At-Dairy-Block.h17289253.Hotel-Information)
