Beautiful surroundings, quiet and peaceful

Very clean. Electric fireplace did not work. Property manager very attentive. Water in 2nd bathroom could be warmer. Beds are showing some wear. Kitchen well stocked. Wifi connectivity. Would likely stay there again and would also recommend.

What’s up with the water?

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed having 2 bathrooms and 2 bedrooms with king size comfortable beds.It’s about 10 miles from Durango, but very close to Lemon reservoir.The difficulty we had was that the well water hadn’t been treated. It smelled very bad and took 2 days to work things out.Suggestion: have the cleaners tell the management company when the well needs to be treated!Also, bring your own coffee. I’ve never stayed anyplace that didn’t have at least coffee.

Great place to stay

Family of four on vacation. The cabin was comfortable and well maintained. Was in a rural neighborhood but not too close to anyone. The property was peaceful, lot's of birds and critters to watch. The nights were quiet and dark (which was nice coming from a Texas suburb)! It was a great place to come back to and relax after our many activities. About 20/25 minutes to Durango. Would stay again, for certain. It did get a little warm inside during the day, Maybe low to mid 80s; but that's because were were staying at probably the hottest part of the year. Owner had a swamp cooler and fans inside that helped. We opened the windows at night which was great because the temps got down to the low 60s/high 50s. The mornings were beautiful and cool. I might suggest bring drinking water as the tap water there is fairly soft and slightly sulfuric. This made all the difference when brewing coffee. A week or so before we asked to tack an extra day on the front of our stay because. We immediately got a response that it could be done. This place was just what my family was looking for! Thanks!

Nice place to unwind. Gret for pets.

Great location about 30 minutes from downtown Durango. easy access to trails and lakes. Very well equipped and furnished. Lovely backyard where pets can play safely at will. We really enjoyed the place and will be back for "real" (see comment below about internet) vacations. A few details that could have made the stay from Good to Great. - The internet works however is extremely slow (Speedtest : Ping 600 MS Download 9.99Mbps Upload 0.50 Mbps). this makes it ok to browse the internet casually but definitely not OK for a workcation week. Do not count on being able to do Zoom call form there. We had to go work downtown in a rented office. - On the description pictures, there is a tarp outside that give shade on the terrasse. the Tarp was not there, this is unfortunate as it could have been pleasant to be outside in the shade. - Finally, all the sink drain need cleanup. there is a very bad odor coming for mthe drains when water flows.
