Enjoy high-quality downhill and boarding in the winter, hiking in the summer, wildflowers in the spring, and autumnal colors in the fall. When you want to explore the town of Durango, check out the Animas Museum, the narrow gauge railroad, Henry Strater Theater, and casual and fine dining.

The vaulted wood plank ceilings, log walls, and wood-burning slate rock fireplace create a cozy, warm atmosphere for your evenings spent with a good movie on the cable TV.

This home has a great deck overlooking the lake and mountains. Every little thing in this home is carefully designed. Only suggestion from my end is if the mattresses can be upgraded with newer ones .

The Hawk House is set in a beautiful location with stunning views. We were entertained by lots of wildlife on the property. The kitchen was very well stocked, and the sitting and eating areas were perfect! There were many day trip opportunities, and while we couldn't take advantage of all of them, we visited Mesa Verde National Park, drove the Million Dollar Highway, visited the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, and spent time at the Nighthorse Reservoir.

The house is beautiful - we really loved the epic porch - perfect to sipping your morning coffee or tea! The western sun does hit the porch hard up until the sun goes down, but then it cools off pretty quickly again. Know there is no AC - so close your windows before 9 to keep the heat from getting in! The sheer number of light switches was amazing and confusing - we should have had the kids go around to identify which switches powered which lights! None of us had any issues with the beds (couple of reviews mentioned they were hard), I was in the upstairs queen bedroom and one night i put the box fan into the window to bring in the outside air - it was amazing. This house is managed by Vacasa - after I had booked it on VRBO as a three bedroom, I was contacted by them and it was quite easy to work with them. NOTE - the downstairs bedroom/studio is an open concept with full kitchen and the couch is a pullout. Since we had rented the whole house, we unlocked the staircase doors so we could go between internally instead of outside. I'm sending some notes directly to Vacasa for improvements, but will definitely stay here again! We saw a bunch of deer, but no other wildlife for us.

Awkward check in (no keys to downstairs) and a big empty space where tv in main room supposed to be. Beautiful location and house we but all had complaints about our mattresses. Maybe an upgrade in that area will match rest of house. Can’t beat the views though!!!!
