Beautiful Mountain Retreat

Our second time staying at this amazing property. If it snows a ton, be sure you have a 4WD vehicle and snow chains. But the journey is worth it! Perfect for families or groups, with a very responsive management team.

Quality vacation home

Super nice house. Rough road to get to the home. Need soft water and less smelly towels. Loved the private setting, view of the lake and big deck to watch wildlife! Beds were very comfortable.

Amazing Place!

Very accurate listing. This place has something for everyone. There are 3 full bedrooms with their own well appointed baths making 3 couples comfortable. The bunk room is great for kids. This place was more than big enough for our 3 families. Very nice kitchen. Media room is great for movie night. Hot tub on a cold night is great! Be sure to follow instructions on access carefully as most navigation apps don't find it very well. We loved out stay!!!

Winter 2025 Ski Trip

The Rental Mgmt Co was easy to communicate with and for the most part extremely helpful. The home was beautiful with a few quirks during our stay like hot water running out, but is a wonderful home that we enjoyed a lot.Major Issue (sorry I have to share this as it is important): Getting to the home in the wintertime was extremely dangerous. The road was muddy, mixed with snow and ice for 1/4 mile. Unless remedied, this home should not be rented during wintertime storms in my opinion. We had to have two 4 wheel drive cars towed and bought 8 bags of sand for road entry and driveway. Even with chains it was extremely dangerous and slippery. Several of our guests fell having to walk to the home due to conditions after vehicles could not get to the home. The guy towing our cars said he had towed 50 vehicles in that specific area of the entry over the past three years and that he considered it the worst in the Purgatory area. The Rental Mgmt co did have road plowed and sanded twice but only after I called on two separate occasions. Again, great home but extremely dangerous road to access and guests should be warned in advance about what they are getting into. Towing and sand cost me 500 and no offer for reimbursement or response to my request was given.Thank you. Ken & Desiree

Family vacation

Beautiful home 1 mile from Purgatory Ski Resort. The online listing we used to decide on this rental stated it was 5 miles from downtown Durango however, it is closer to 25 miles from Durango. I am sure in the winter the proximity to skiing is awesome but we were there in August and wanted to be near town. Aside from that the home is awesome and very well maintained. Pleanty of room for our chidren amd grandchildren.

Beautiful House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great house, great location! Perfect for our group. Downside was that we didnt know it did NOT have A/C. The temp (July) of the house never got below 81 (81-86) so was pretty warm. Even opened the windows and used the provided fans.

Lonesome location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was very nice & once we got a few issues resolved we enjoyed the stay. The problem with the house is location. It is 24 miles from downtown Durango & you spend a significant time driving to & back from Durango for groceries, restaurants etc.

Modern and Magnificent

It sounds cliche, but the pictures truly can't convey the beauty of this house and the surrounding area. The house is just secluded enough but still very convenient for a local run to the Needles store or Schoolhouse Pizza. Of course, it is also just down the highway from Purgatory--so convenient! The only caution is to be certain that you bring a four-wheel drive vehicle and maybe even a set of chains as well. The drive in through the neighborhood and the steep driveway can be challenging during a snowstorm. The plus side of being snowed in for a day was that our group got to really enjoy the house--and we still got some skiing and boarding in, with plenty of fresh powder!

Purgatory Group Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the house. Our group consisted of 6 adults, 8 children and it still felt huge. The kids loved the bunk room and everyone enjoyed the hot tub and media room. The house had more amenities then listed including, baby gates, drip and Keurig coffee pots, outside fire pit, and all the appliances you could possibly need. One non-negotiable is a 4WD vehicle is mandatory especially in winter. All families had 4WD and still needed chains to get up and down the road and driveway. Was sort of a pain but the house was worth it.

Beautiful home, quiet location, excellent views

We stayed in this home with two families. Four adults, 8 kids ages 7 to 13. Our purpose was a winter getaway to play in the snow. The home itself is gorgeous. Lots of bathrooms and sleeping options. Our kids loved the bunk room. There was 4 feet of snow and the roads were well plowed. However, as the listing says, if there is snow, you will wand 4wd and chains in the winter. Our kids spent hours sledding down the hills to the side of the house. One note--bring your own bottled water. The water from the tap wasn't the best. Overall, we loved it and would rent again.

Mountain Retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 8 rented the house for a week of skiing and snowboarding at Purgatory. Granparents, parents and 4 children. The home was lovely and beautifully appointed. We have stayed at vacation homes that did not provide adequate cooking equipment so we brought a great deal of our own and never even needed to dig it out! The house was spotless, instructions were detailed and easy to follow. It is very remote and impossible to get to without 4 wheel drive or chains. One of our vehicles was a Subaru but that was not sufficient, we had to find chains in the community in order to get up to the house. Our 4 wheel drive truck did fine.

Spring Break 2024

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Home was beautiful and we had an enjoyable time. Lots of snow! We were however told only 4-wheel drive vehicles were required when actually tire chains were required as well. Found this out after we could not climb the mountain to access the house and slid backwards into a snow embankment which was covered over a rock and dinted the rear end of our vehicle. Staff was helpful in putting us in contact with a gentleman that came by and put the chains on our SUV. He did mention that this was his 6th call to rescue tenants. The HOA was a little slow in snow plowing as we were told they were to plow every 4 inches and that wasn’t the case. The home was well furnished with all amenities however silverware and utensils in the drawers and dishes in the cabinets were not cleaned well and we found food on numerous pieces. One exception is towels are not plentiful. We do reuse but during a seven day stay more should be provided to prevent us from continuously having to do laundry on our vacation. Also, the wooden floors had white streaks pretty bad mostly around the kitchen area from being mopped. Nothing that we couldn’t clean and did. Overall it is a very beautiful home and it was enjoyed by all. We thank you!
