The large private hot tub, nestled under a charming gazebo, provides the perfect spot for relaxation and stargazing. Inside, the lodge features a spacious and modern kitchen, a cook's dream with updated appliances and ample space for preparing delicious meals. The large island with bar seating and the expansive dining table provides wonderful gathering spaces for family and friends. A cozy sitting area with a grand wood fireplace beckons for cozy evenings spent watching the snowfall. Downstairs, a welcoming bonus room awaits, equipped with three comfortable couches and an impressive 80" flat panel TV. One of the couches even converts into a sofa sleeper for additional sleeping options. There's also a convenient large laundry and utility room with a washer and dryer on this floor. Venturing upstairs, you'll discover three inviting bedrooms. The master suite boasts a luxurious king bed, a private bath, and a private balcony that overlooks the majestic mountains. The second bedroom features two queen beds, and there's a full bath on this floor as well. The third bedroom is a delightful space for kids, offering two queen beds and a charming sleeping loft with two twin mattresses. This room also includes a private bath. Step outside to indulge in a relaxing soak in the expansive hot tub, or simply revel in the beauty of the serene pond views and the surrounding picturesque mountains.

8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2025
Overall, my family and I had a nice stay at the cabin, however, I’ve stayed in better maintained rental properties. Cleanliness at the property could be improved as we noticed a lot of hair around the house/on beds. The kitchen pots/pans/utensils were dirty/peeling. We had to figure out how to get the microwave working as it wasn’t turning on (per the management team, this is a common occurrence) and it also took us the whole first day to figure out how to get the hot tub temperature up from 60 degrees. We did call the property management team and they were responsive, but it would have been nice for the property to be checked on before guests arrive.

We loved the property and the area around the property. We had a great time, everything we needed was provided.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2024
We had 7 adults stay for a little under a week in July. The location was great for us (closer to Silverton than Durango), and the cabin was outfitted with most everything you’d hope to have at a VRBO. We enjoyed the deck and hot tub, kitchen with plenty of seating, and hiking in the area. Highly recommend!
6 / 10Average·Sep 2021
The place is beautiful and we loved the location. However, there were a few issues that came up:
1) the stairs are narrow and insanely slippery. I slipped in my socks and literally slid down the lower landing. They make a big deal about not wearing anything on you feet but my advice is forget this or bring slippers. I left a note advising them to put non-slip on the steps but since no one in management even acknowledged this happened, I am not optimistic. Just be careful if you're there.
2) the dishwasher leaked. now we stopped it and soaked up the water but we were down to hand washing. Management did not seem surprised or even concerned so it may be an ongoing issue? I don't know.
3) the second floor appears to be a single layer of floor boards butted up against each other. The charm wore off very quickly due to the squeaking and absolute lack of sound insulation. Not a big deal, just something to be aware of.
