About this house rental
Our custom built 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom residence is 20 minutes (13 miles) from historic downtown Durango and 45 minutes (36 miles) from Purgatory Ski Resort. The charming chef’s kitchen, equipped with stunning granite countertops, a farm style sink, beautiful light oak cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances, is the center point of the home and opens up to the main living and dining spaces.. The 3-seat breakfast bar, partitions the adjacent sunny dining room, a perfect place for making delightful dinner or late night family board game memories.
Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms, all featuring vaulted cathedral ceilings, and generous windows, letting light in from every exterior angle. The delightfully inviting master suite expands through half of the upper level. While the additional bedrooms, including one with an elevated loft bed, are cozy and perfect for kids or guests alike. Open the windows and relish in the river sounds, for a perfect night’s sleep. Located in the quiet and friendly Forest Groves Estates neighborhood, just down the street from the natural beauty of both Lemon and Vallecito Lakes. This property is perfectly nestled near the Florida River, including creek access beside the house.

Our original location had a problem and we were given four choices of other properties to choose from. We chose Creekside and we are thrilled that we did!! It was a perfect location and a beautiful property!!! It could not have been any better!! The house was beautiful and right on a creek that ran through the property. Can’t wait to come back!!

The house is beautiful, set in tall pines and mountains and rapid flowing Florida river sound is always in the background. Was clean and was well furnished. So many things to do in the area. We had a wonderful time and would love to return.

Cabin was perfect for our family of 8 (6 adults & 2 children)for Christmas. Nice, large and clean home with all needed amenities. Views from all rooms and sits on a nice creek with a great creekside pathway. We really enjoyed it.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2025
The home was just ok. The cleaner and company that does the rental service were clearly good. It’s the home that isn’t well taken care for. From the broken screen door, the peeling plumbing fixtures, to the lack of cups and disorganized kitchen that lacked thought, I think they could really put some thought into the quality of the guests stay. The living room is quite small, but the one (stained) sofa isn’t enough seating. Could use a couple small chairs. The main issue I had was the lack of care to the outside of the home. The lack of secure steps from the back porch and the weed “landscaping” was sort of the entire vibe of this home. When paying for a vacation rental these are the types of things that owners should think about. Another note is that the fishing island trail is truly off the front of the home, not the back like the listing said so that took us a while to figure out. The back porch has dirty weathered chairs with direct views of the neighbors porch. So you won’t feel privacy if they’re home.
