A beautiful cabin nestled in the hillside with beautiful views and complete privacy. Away from the hustle bustle of Durango but only 20 minutes into town to have dinner and or get to the train station or various activities. We will recommend this property to family and friends for a quick getaway.

Great location!

This was a great spot to be centrally located close enough to Durango and points west (Mesa Verde, etc.) and close enough to the mountains. It's an easy drive off the highway and a quiet spot. Lots of helpful info in the host's guidebook for fishing, hiking, dining, and everything else.

Very nice home between Durango and Purgatory

Very nice propery between Durango and Purgatory. Well furnished with beautiful views and nice amenities including the hot tub. Easy access to the road. There are stairs to access the home, but that was not an issue for us. Overall, very pleased with this choice. We will definitely stay again.

Family adventures in Durango

Such a great place to stay! Great location, quiet and beautiful setting…we’ve been coming to vacation in Durango for many years now, this was probably one of our favorite homes. We brought our pups and plenty of outdoor space to play fetch and go for walks. It was fun to see the wild turkeys take their morning stroll up the mountain and a few visiting deer families too! Flying S had everything we needed to make great meals, nice linens, towels and comfy beds…plenty of room for all of us. We would definitely come back!

First family trip together

We have family in Durango and drove in two vehicles to stay for the week. We went to Silverton and saw the sites and took hikes. The kids had a wonderful horse back ride at Bear Ranch. We went to the Durango Hot Springs. Went to the Ute cultural museum and learned a lot about their history. And sat in the Hot Tub and saw some awesome meteorites! We had an awesome time.

Beautiful house with amazing mountain views

We loved our stay at the cabin. We had two families with teen boys and dogs. The mountain views from inside and outside are amazing. The master bedroom and upstairs bedroom have million dollar views. The outdoor hot tub was a nice respite after a day of skiing. This cabin was the most well stocked vacation rental we have ever rented. The property manager was very responsive when we had questions.

Wedding cabin stay

We loved staying at this cabin in the mountains. The stairs were a little daunting when we first got there, but they were okay. Walking into the cabin we saw a beautiful home. We loved the decorations. It was done very well. We all had great beds and amenities. When they said the kitchen was fully stocked, they really meant it. We didn't have to purchase very much for our needs. The area around the cabin was very nice. We loved seeing turkeys, ground squirrels, and hummingbirds. We felt safe there. No bears or other large animals. We ended up being basically right across the road from where our wedding venue was at Chris Park. We wished that we could have had more to to ride the horses at trail ride company. This is a beautiful area.

Nice house

Property was nice and clean. Upstairs bedroom needed some sigificant TLC, carpet had burns and curtain was seriously damaged/stained. Hot tub was a good addition and clean. Beware when traveling in the winter months there are several steep stairs as the only entrance. Steep stairs mixed with snow/ice made for trecherous conditions. Would not recommend for anyone with mobility issues. Recommend earlier check in time in the winter months. Arriving at dusk/dark with recent snowfall and minimally cleared path created a challenge to get everything in the house.

Amazing vacation stay

This house exceeded my expectations. It is 15-20min north of Durango, right off the highway in the trees and mountains. Very secluded and a perfect spot for those wanting to get out of the city/town. I will be coming back. Was a beautiful home/visit.

Close to Purgatory with Plenty of Space

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It is about 15 minutes to Purgatory (with traffic) and about 20 minutes to Durango. There was plenty of room for two families with 10 people total and a dog. We got pounded with snow while were there which presented some issues, but we enjoyed our stay. Here are few things to know about the property: 1. While the drive was plowed most days, it is still advisable to have a 4WD or AWD vehicle if there is snow in the forecast. Both of our vehicles had 4WD and we did not have issues, but I can't imagine what would have happened otherwise. 2. The hot tub is hot and functional, but it is also on a lower deck. That makes getting to it during snow accumulation tricky. It isn't a big deal, just something to be prepared for. 3. There is no mud room or garage access. We had to improvise a staging area for our wet stuff when we came in from the snow. Again, not a big deal, but something to be prepared for. 4. There is not porter service that shovels the snow on the deck so be prepared to shovel it yourself. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the property.

Great rental home for a family!

We had a great time at this home. Very quiet and secluded area off the main road. Lots of trees and backs up to a mountainside. We came with our immediate family. 6 adults and 5 young kids. Therewas plenty of room for everyone and we all had nice places to sleep. Rooms were large. Everything in the house was clean and we'll maintained. The kitchen had every appliance and small appliance you might need. The main floor bedroom gets pretty warm at night. We had to open a window a bit and close the floor registers most of the way. The downstairs room does get a little chilly as some others have said. The kids didn't mind it though. There are plenty of blankets down there. Some of the adults switched spots to sleep where it was a little cooler too. The deck and hot tub are nice. The driveway might be a little hard to get up to the garage door if you have 2WD. We made it up ok on the last day to pack up. Don't park right up next to the garage door after a decent snow and warm up because snow and ice will likely fall on your car hood. The wifi was a little disappointing. It's pretty slow at times. We tried to do a little homework with the kids but it was a struggle. Also it might be helpful to add an extra garbage can for larger families for a week. We ended up throwing a couple bags in the back of one of trucks to take to town at the end of the week. Other than that we had a great time! Would definitely recommend the house!
