We had a fantastic stay at this property. It was clean and decorated so cute. Had everything we needed and was in a great location. Beautiful little creek with chairs to sit and enjoy. We will definitely be staying here again when we visit Durango.
One of the best VRBOs we have ever stayed at. The location was perfect. We enjoyed time by the creek, playing frisbee golf, and eating on the porch. The Hermosa creek trailhead was just minutes away and we were able to take a beautiful hike close by. Our only regret is we couldn’t stay longer. Highly recommend and will be back in the future.
Love this area and this property was excellent. Everything was as promised. The creek was so relaxing and can be heard from back patio. Will stay again next time.
Perfect location in Durango and immaculately clean!
Very happy that we selected this location as our home base for our long weekend trip to Durango. I can’t imagine a better location - close to a grocery store, close to James Ranch, close to a gas station, and right on the edge of all the best hiking locations. Plus the property is right next to a cute creek. You can hear the water from the patio (which features a very nice grill).
The entire place was perfectly equipped and immaculately clean. Would definitely stay again!
Had a wonderful stay with my husband and my mom while attending my cousin's wedding. This little place was close enough to town that we could grab groceries or find a nice restaurant. We enjoyed seeing and hearing the steam a diesel trains pass by and the creek was a great place to sit and unwind. We stayed an extra day to enjoy the area. Very comfy and clean, hope we can visit again soon!
Beautiful and modern property! Extremely clean and well kept. We especially loved the location and the creek! Such beautiful views, we were in heaven! Everything inside the home was wonderful. The bed was super comfortable and we had all that we needed to grill and prepare meals. Deck was splendid too!!
We were very comfortable & appreciated how clean the house was. My only recommendation is that you provide a larger skillet & pot for boiling pasta. We had to use 2 pans simultaneously while cooking several times.
Thank you for a wonderful stay. We also loved the creek behind the house.
While this home was different than I thought it would be in that it was located close to a major road and there were other renters in close proximity, there are very few things not to like about it. The home was very clean, with a well equipped kitchen and awesome, clean grill. AC worked good. Owners have their act together with a digital notebook including local recommendations, good communication, and a lovely gift upon arrival (thank you!). We had hoped to fish in the creek on the property but the water level was too low; it was still a nice place to end the day and listen to the water. We had a very big issue with the WiFi not working and thus could not really watch TV at night or edit our photos (owner explained this was a result of the IT outage). Location was very good to golf and spa, both of which we did, and not too far from Durango proper. Overall, we would recommend.
This was a gorgeous little spot for a getaway. Close to everything or if you don't want to leave, everything you could possibly need is on had. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend.
This was exactly as advertised and what other reviewers had posted. It is such a comfortable and clean home. Has everything you could possibly need. Unfortunately it rained a good bit and we didn’t have the chance to enjoy the outdoors here but on the last day we did walk around and could see how nice it would be by the creek. It was close enough to our family, too.
Thanks to the Rainey’s for maintaining and offering such a lovely home to stay in!
This is a beautiful new property with a gorgeous kitchen and two large comfortable bedrooms. We enjoyed the chairs located on the creek and saw a young doe grazing in the grasses. It's about 10 minutes from Durango and close enough to the train to hear it whistle as it goes by. Would definitely stay here again.
This is not an overly large property but it is well furnished and very clean; and with two bedrooms and two baths it worked well for us a a single couple. And would likely work well for two couples or a couple with small children. The area is well kept and generally quiet. There is a bit of road noise from the nearby highway but it is more than compensated by the nearby babbling water course and the steam whistle from train to Silverton. Overall, we were very pleased with our stay.
Found the place with no problem and was met at the door by Brittney who helped us get settled and addressed our concerns. Nice little creek out back and the sound of running water from the channel was nice. Kitchen seemed to have everything we needed.
Loved this place! The little house is super clean and well equipped. It is in a quiet location and the drive from town is easy and scenic. We walked over to the nearby cafe, Hermosa Grill, once for lunch and once for breakfast. Proprietor at the cafe gave us good recommendations on what to see and do in the area. Scenic steam train runs (infrequently) nearby and it was a treat to hear the whistle as it came up the canyon. Would definitely stay here again.
Great property with responsive owners. No shortcomings at all. Plenty of supplies provided during stay. Don’t hesitate to stay at this convenient location to Durango and purgatory.
