RELAXING ON THE DECK (or living/dining area) of our guesthouse with the STUNNING VIEWS of the Animas Valley and surrounding mountains, you’ll know you’ve picked the right home for your Durango vacation. This home is located within a 6 minute drive of the historical downtown area. If you enjoy walking or biking, the Animas River path runs along the river for close to 9 miles one way and begins just down the road a mile. The home sits within walking distance to a great sports club and the Durango Recreation Center is a 3 minute drive. Also within walking distance is two bakeries, a Sushi restaurant, a Mexican cafe-type place and a dominoes pizza. One of our 4 grocery stores in town is down the road one mile with plenty of restaurants between the store on the way to historic downtown Durango.This home’s main floor has an open living area that includes living area, dining areaand kitchen with a deck and all overlooks our beautiful Animas River Valley and its surrounding mountains. There is a full bath and laundry room also on this floor. The home is nicely furnished with your comfort in mind and all the conveniences of home. The kitchen has all the appliances and utensils for your culinary needs. On the ground level there is a king bed in the master and we’ve’ added two twins to what was suppose to be an office when it was built. There is a full bath between these two rooms. There is a garage and a carport attached to this home.Purgatory Ski area is a 25 mile beautiful drive . Chapman Hill is a small in-town ski area just 3 mins away . There is cross-country skiing, ice skating, snowmobiling and sleigh rides available close by. We normally have great skiing conditions and sunny weather without long lines of some of the more famous ski areas. Purgatory is fun in the winter for snow activities but summer brings as much fun with scenic rides on the ski lifts, slide down the mountain, a roller coaster ride, zip lining, and other fun actives that the kiddos always love.Known for our 300 days of blue sky, the weather in the area is perfect not only for winter sports, but in the spring, summer and fall for hiking, biking, rock climbing, golf, horseback riding, river rafting and riding the historical Durango Silverton narrow gauge train. Fly fishing is great in the Animas River that runs through the town and valley, but there is also fishing in many lakes and other rivers close by. There are excellent restaurants and great shopping with wonderful art galleries in the city.Just 45 minutes away, you can be at the entrance to Mesa Verde, the largest Indian Cliff Dwellings found so far in the world I believe. Listed by the United Nations as a world cultural center, this is a site people from around the world come to see. In the summer, Mesa Verde guides will take guests on a walking tour into some of the ruins (must have a guide so will need a reservation) but there is a loop drive that is well marked for people to see the ruins from the top without walking a lot which most can also be seen from a wheelchair. No reservations so far for this is required but always check before going. Our downtown Visitor center can answer many questions and may have more accurate information for all activities in and around our spectacular area.People also come from all over the world to ride the Durango/Silverton Narrow gauge train. This train leaves the downtown train station and takes its’ passengers through the Animas Valley to Cascade Canyon and then on to Silverton, the old mining town. Jeep tours can be taken from there or Durango, by the way if planned ahead.Many who visit our area like to drive ‘the loop’ (not so much in the winter) where the highway goes over several mountain passes, including what is called the million dollar highway, to Silverton, Quray and Telluride.We’ll be happy to share info of different hikes and biking trails you might wish to take if you are here in spring, summer and fall.Check out our 5 star reviews. We know from experience and our past guests that you will most likely want to stay longer than you plan. Seems there is never enough time to do all there is do here in the summer for sure. We have guests who book every summer and some repeat customers stay for as long as a month. After September, we have excellent rates if guests want to book for the entire winter orfor a few months after New Years. We might consider a well-behaved and trained small dog for month to month. Because too many guests are allergic to cats we don’t accept cats.Please note cancellation policy: We’ve only had a couple of cancellations because of family emergencies. We’ve been able to rebook each time so we returned their money.There is no guarantee though w/out insurance. We are only one property so if someone cancels close to their arrival time, we might not be able to fill the space since most people plan their vacations to Durango pretty far in advance.We’ll look forward to hearing from you!Carol and LarryCity of Durango vacation home rental License # 201300319 (city requirement)
