A family reunion at Riverbend

Ranging from age 4 to 86, we loved our week at Riverbebd. The layout of the house was perfect for a crowd. We enjoyed being able to eat together at the long tables inside or out. The outside space was gorgeous and just right for baseball with the young kids, and the general location was central to most of the activities we wanted to explore. We can’t wait to come back!

Great Family Retreat

It is a beautiful home surrounded by beautiful landscaping. Great getaway for a multi generational family. The only negative was the hot temperatures upstairs due to the 90 degree days. It was very difficult for our grandkids to fall asleep. We would definitely stay in this house again but during a cooler time of year.

Great place to stay for a family ski trip.

This is a beautiful, large 5 bedroom house that held our family of 12 comfortably for a ski trip to Purgatory. It is located between the town of Durango and the Purgatory Ski Resort. One of our family members is a paraplegic, so having a main level bedroom and bathroom is one of the things we look for first. The living room and kitchen layout worked well for us and the dining room table for 12 was excellent! Several people used the hot tub and said it was good. We would stay here again for future large family trips.

Perfect!!

Everything you need is right here! We enjoyed our stay. The house was well stocked and very comfortable! We loved playing in the snow and the peaceful sound of the river flowing! We also made some furry friends the fox and chipmunk. The fireplace was a nice touch and super cozy! Only thing I wish is that I could see this beautiful home in the beautiful summers of Durango! Thanks for a lovely vacation!

This home and property were perfect for our entire family celebrating a grandparent’s milestone birthday. As outdoor enthusiasts, we greatly appreciated dinners at one continuous table on the deck, the garage and bike space, and especially coming home to the yard and Hermosa creek each day. From the time we drove the driveway coming into the property, to seeing the inside spaces and discovering so many well thought out and appreciated touches (pack and play, crib in master closet, indoor and outdoor games, kitchen furnishings, two refrigerators, laundry, etc.), and loving the backyard privacy and creek access, we could focus on family fun. Great place and great location!

Beautiful home for groups

First off, the setting and scenery were amazing, we were here in the summer, and the grounds with the rivers and flowers were really amazing. We had a multigenerational group of 14, and it fit us well. The large open kitchen and living room, with large dining tables inside and out were great for our group to prepare and eat large meals.The bunk room was great for all of the kids, and had its own bathroom.Three other rooms upstairs were good for adults, and shared one bathroom, which was a little tight, but with a little communication about showering, etc. was workable.The downstairs master suite was huge, with walk-in closet, shower with multiple spray nozzles, etc. Very nice space.We did have an issue with the AC upstairs one day, and management company was able to send someone to fix next day. It did seem like a known issue (the AC guy knew what the issue was before he got there).For a place that is a premium place, it also seemed a little stingy on the amenities. Arrival instructions before we arrived said that the place came with one roll of paper towels, one trash bag per can, and two rolls of TP per bathroom. Not that big of a deal because we had to go the grocery store anyway, but I’ve stayed in much more budget places that had plenty of TP, enough coffee for every day, etc. so it seemed a little misaligned with how nice everything else was. Overall, an amazing place, and I’d go back, but adding these notes for transparency,

Stepping Into Home

Our family (4 generations) was in Durango for Soaring Tree Top zip lines. This house felt like home when you walked in the door. Plenty of room and the amenities to create a wonderful breakfast, afternoon happy hour, and evening around the fire-pit , enjoying the hot tubs, or playing the abundant games.. Every feature was quality including bedside mints on check in. The showers are Amazing. The stream, creek, ditch, whatever gurgles by and puts you to sleep like a lullaby. Every element was ABOVE my expectations from appliances to bath mat. If you are spending a week or a weekend; it is almost hard to leave the property. Thank you!!.

75th birthday party

Property was gorgeous. House was unbelievable. Beds wete very comfortable. Instuctions on TV, grill, hot tub would have nice for us older people. 30 somethings were able to handle it better. Two complaints, hot tub smelled, was scummy and kept flipping the breakers. We think that the firepit was out of propane. It would light but not stay on. Sounds nit picky but they both helped make the decision on where to stay so it was disappointing.

MOB family

We were in town for my daughter's wedding at Riverbend. There were 14 of us in total. There was plenty of space for us to cook congregate and socialize. It is a beautiful property and we made wonderful memories to last a lifetime! The house rules are reasonable and understandable for a house of this size and quality. There are two sets of laundry machines and two fridges. There are several small appliances 2 coffee pots, 3 blenders, 2 crock pots. This makes cooking for a group easy. Thank you to the owner and property mgmt. for a great place to stay would definitely come back!!!

Mountain Retreat

The home and property were beautiful. The grounds were maintained and so peaceful. Tree's, lawn, creeks and a river surround the home. There was a great variety of games, indoors and out which we took full advantage of and enjoyed. The home was spacious, beds were comfortable. I would gladly recommend this home, and wouldn't hesitate to come back for another reunion here.
