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.
