Nice home with a spacious backyard conveniently located near downtown Durango. Home Had All the basics provided and had ample sleeping, storage and sitting space. Nice front porch deck to relax and enjoy the green scenery. Victoria the owner was very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to rent her place again in the future!

Excellent experience in this cozy, comfy home, located directly in between downtown and Fort Lewis College. Easy 5-minute drive to campus or 5 minute walk to downtown. We were delighted by the cute and quiet neighborhood, which we enjoyed from the front deck. Ample on-street parking made it easy to carry bags in and out. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed. Check-in and check-out were a breeze, and I really appreciated that the host takes care of the trash and laundry so I don't have to!

Perfect stay in Durango

Juniper House was the perfect spot for us for a long weekend in Durango. We could easily walk into town, the nature hike, or coffee. It is in a wonderful neighborhood. The house was just as shown, very clean and comfortable, and well stocked. We would definitely stay here again.

We loved this duplex! It’s cozy, but great for a family of four, especially if you plan to get out. Bedrooms were great, and communicating with Victoria was easy. She went above and beyond. The best, though, was the neighborhood. It’s walking distance to downtown and a lovely part of Durango. Plus, our pup was super comfortable and enjoyed walks each morning and night. WiFi worked well but was a little shaky when I was on work zooms. We didn’t cook, but kitchen seemed well stocked.

Wonderful stay, will be back!

We had the perfect stay at Purple Juniper! Such a lovely, safe neighborhood and an easy walk to so many shops and restaurants downtown. Victoria was the perfect host, so easy to communicate with and willing to get us anything we needed our entire stay. The residence has an impressive and generous stock of every kitchen and pantry staple you could imagine, truly the best of any rental we have ever stayed at. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of extra linens and towels.10/10!
