About this property

Secluded 33ac Mountain Estate 12 mins from Durango

Welcome to Lightner Creek Canyon just minutes from downtown Historic Durango and <45 min to Purgatory Ski resort.

The secluded and very private estate has plenty of room to hike, bike, or just enjoy the outdoors or better yet cozy by the spectacular stone fireplace while peering out the large living room window to see nature and the beautiful Silver Mountain.

While you are close to the city, you will feel like you are nestled in the mountains. Enjoy the creek as you walk through the willows.

Great spot outside Durango
The house is lovely and comfortable. The kitchen is great for cooking at home and sitting on the deck was fantastic. It’s close enough to Durango to be convenient but far enough to feel like you’re alone. We had a great time and would book again.

Stunning views
The property has everything you want or need. Well-appointed kitchen and pantry. Large kitchen with 5 burner gas stove. Outdoor eating areas along with fire pit and hot tub. Wood burning fireplace to keep you toasty while gazing at the amazing scenery. Woke up on a chilly autumn morning to radiant heated flooring!! I hope to stay again. Communication was prompt and easy checkin.

Mountain paradise
The most important thing I can say about this property is they did not oversell it on the description. They may have undersold it. We had so many wonderful times on the patio, drinking g coffee, watching wildlife, seeing storms come in. Communication was awesome and we love their caretakers, Taylor and Cody. My wife and I worked from the little office space in the living room and never had a problem with internet. It is so well appointed and stocked. The technology actually worked.

Perfect Stay
This was a totally amazing place. Jim and Courtney were the best hosts, understanding an unexpected death in our immediate family. We were able to find some solace in the views and peacefulness of the property. The place was well stocked with the necessities we needed. Close enough to town where we could enjoy the great restaurants that Durango has to offer. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Beautiful location, clean, well-stocked does not even begin to scratch the surface of this amazing property! We wanted to escape the Texas heat for a few days and this property more than provided for the perfect escape. Owners were always quick to communicate. We will return!

AMAZING!!! One of the best!
We've been using VRBO for nearly 20 years and this was easily one of the nicest places (including the property) that we've ever stayed at. The custom build house was GORGEOUS!!! The views from the large family room windows and deck area...also GORGEOUS. The owners really ensured that they had virtually anything you needed and in good supply. We were welcomed with a lovely snack basket (and WINE)...who does that! AMAZING. Our favorite part - a well stocked kitchen. My number one observation in a lot of properties is that there is not enough supplies (utensils, cooking dishes, knives...not sharpened knives, etc). This kitchen had everything we needed to bake, smoke meats, basically anything to make a meal. We like to cook, so we really appreciated that this property had it in place and with good quality. We had a great/relaxing vacation and so grateful to property owners like Jim and Courtney to make that happen!

Amazing & quiet property
This property is so beautiful, inside and out. We greatly enjoyed the cozy cabin as well as the property and views outside. It was very easy to hop over to Durango. We enjoyed many restaurants and shops there. Overall we were extremely happy with this trip. Communication from the property owner was good. In short, we had a great time and we will be returning.

The house is very comfortable and convenient. We especially appreciated the rocking chairs, even outside! The instructions for the tv were very helpful and everything was well labeled. The views are amazing and it’s a great neighborhood to walk in.

Durango Stay
This place exceeded expectations. The management company did a great job communicating and labeling everything. The views were spectacular and you feel like you’re in your own mountain oasis. I’m very hopeful this cabin will be available next time we’re in town. I can only say good things about our experience.

Outstanding Property and Location
What a special place! We were looking for a few days relaxation in the middle of a road trip from Ohio, and settled on Durango-near. We’ve been in the area a few times over the years (since the early 80’s) but never rode the train before, among other local experiences. This “cabin” is a beautiful, substantially-built modern home that is spectacularly appointed internally, and comes with incredible views from all sides. It’s wrapped by decks, fenced in yard, and QUIET solitude…all really only 15 minutes from Durango. We were blown away when we first checked in, and would’ve loved to stay longer! Dealing with the owners was seamless throughout the process, with communication an obvious priority for them…much appreciated by us as well. I’d rent this property again, and hope to!

Perfect Fit For Our Family.
We enjoyed a 7 night stay, with two adults, two kids & three dogs. The house is very clean and well situated for a family to live there while on vacation. We cooked all our meals there and the kitchen supplied all our needs. The house is beautiful and well appointed with our family. Main bedroom is great with updated bathroom and very comfortable bed. Each bedroom has its own updated bathroom. The sun room was a favorite for our family for dinner. Each morning we sat outside in either the front patio or deck to enjoy the views and solitude. The large yard was perfect for our dogs, especially the gated yard. My daughter and i hiked the trail behind the house. Take some time and enjoy the surroundings. We rented and watched City Slickers while there....I'll let you figure out why. The hosts are very help, answered all our questions quickly. The local manager is great, easily accessible via text. Thank you for the gift basket. Well worth it. If we come to Durango we will stay again. Thank you for sharing your home.

Outstanding property
This is an incredibly well made home in an idyllic setting. From the high end appliances, well stocked kitchen, super comfortable beds and sumptuous linens, to the spotless hot tub and snow capped mountain views, you cannot ask for anything more. We really enjoyed the sense of privacy and being in the country, while being minutes from town. We also found some of the best hiking just down the road. We were given a lovely basket of goodies on arrival as well as a large selection of coffees and teas. The owners and their local host were very responsive to all of our needs. We absolutely loved our stay at this home and hope to return some day soon.

Wedding Weekend
We rented this property as a homebase as we were getting married in Durango. We wanted a secluded, large home to host our guests for a rehearsal dinner and this was the perfect place. Even though it felt secluded it was still only a 15 minute drive to downtown, the location was perfect. The pictures were exactly as advertised and it was a beautiful space that felt warm, clean, and everything we could have hoped for. The details felt intentional and everyone loved the deck! We would definitely stay here again and look forward to doing so!
