A multitude of hiking, rafting, and fishing options are available, either on your own or with guides, and don't forget about the Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum.

It's an OK property, not premier. Some nice views and close to downtown. However, the property has issues. Most of them are brought up in past reviews. But they go unfixed. With some time, effort, and money. You could make this a better place. And what's with the huge cleaning fee???!

It’s a beautiful area where the airbnb is , the house was very small for a family of 5 with only one bathroom available. The house seemed like it was never cleaned prior to us arriving, we noticed the living room fan had a lot of dust on it, the ceiling in the kitchen had spider webs in the corner also in the living room ceiling, we also had noticed a lot of mouse traps through out the house from the kitchen by the fridge and also in the living room. We also intend on using the grill, but it was very dirty. We were disappointed cause we had planned to grilled some steaks for dinner and stay outside and enjoy the beautiful weather and wild life. Thank you for your understanding!

Good place to stay

The property was great. We had a little hard time finding it but your directions were good. We just took a few passes. The house was comfortable and suited our needs. Beautiful location. Our only suggestion would be to turn up the hot water a little and find a way to increase the water pressure. The shower needed warmer water with more water pressure.

Family Ski Reunion

We took our adult children skiing for a week, and this house suited our needs just fine. The only glitch was the electronic door lock didn’t work when we arrived late at night. It took a little while, but we eventually got the code for the lockbox containing the keys.

Very Disappointed - Be Sure to book direct with VACASA to avoid the VRBO fee

The most troublesome issue was a very offensive odor permeating the "cabin." We opened all the windows to get in some fresh air. Despite the fresh air, the odor persisted through out our 4 day visit. It was strongest in the front room near the sofa and bar stool area. We never could figure out the source. Also very disappointing was a non-working fireplace. It was chilly in the evening and morning so we were looking forward to using the fireplace. The front yard was un-mowed and had sprinklers on a timer to insure the long grass was always wet. I would have turned them off but I didn't locate the timer until our last day. The master bedroom bed sagged in the middle. The yellow sofa in the front room was wallowed out so it too sagged very low when occupied. The only good attribute was the location.

Great location, nice place for sure. Only issue was a mouse...or two....and an odor that we finally located to a mouse corpse. Very good and clean except for this.....which, for a girl's trip group, became an unnerving couple of nights.

1st and last VRBO/Vacasa stay

Poorly maintained. Front door deadbolt couldn’t be locked with key, door handle (only way to lock door) very loose. House had an offensive odor which was sorta masked with heavy air freshener (applied just before check in). Reported these problems immediately, no effort made to fix them. Owner was aware of the deadbolt, handwritten note inside about the deadbolt not working. VRBO surcharge is 30% for various fees and taxes. Last night’s Hampton Inn’s surcharge was 14%. The property overall was seedy. Does have a nice bathroom and beds. Kitchen and living room dated. Front porch is the best feature . Good location.

Misled with a Marvelous Mountain View

When we first arrived, we had a little difficulty finding the property but finally saw the black mailbox next to another black mailbox with 922 on it. The other mailbox said 942 and we really weren’t expecting such close neighbors. We received the entry code in a text message but didn’t realize the key was inside the key box. I expected the code to actually turn the door handle like those at home. We had to call the manager and after a few minutes someone came to open the door for us. We felt she was a bit snarky as she told us she had to get to a memorial service. When we entered the house all the windows were closed with a tiny room air conditioner running in the foyer. It was set at 65 degrees but it didn’t cool the house in the least. There was a sign in the fridge that told us to turn off the a/c at night and put the windows up for “Colorado air conditioning.” Ceiling fans in the bedrooms would have been very helpful. Also the tiny air conditioner should be replaced with a much larger one and placed in a living room or kitchen window. A split a/c unit would be economical and much more efficient. Another thing we encountered was water coming into the front bedroom from the sprinklers at 5:45 in the morning until after 8:00. When I was awake I realized it and closed the window but there was water on the floor and the corner of the bed. The sprinklers came on every morning for 2-3 hours at a time! We were misled by the VRBO ad into believing that this property was away from neighbors and traffic but there was plenty of that. There were positives, though. The patio chairs and lounge chairs were wonderful for sitting outside in the mornings and evenings. The deer were fun to watch. The kitchen was well equipped and the house was very clean. Just a few improvements would make a stay at this cabin in the summer much better.

Get-Away in Durango

Check-In was easy. Lots of places to sleep. Kitchen was well stocked of kitchenware. Only 1 dishwasher pod was provided for a whole weekend. Management did bring more when called. Beware of lawn sprinklers - they will wake you at 5:30am if your bedroom window is open. Sprinklers stayed on from 5:30am to past 8am both mornings. (we left around 8am both days). A small note warns you that keys do not open the top lock. Did we pay attention? No. Had to call management 2x to see if we could get back in. By 4pm - we still could not obtain entry. Management did showed up to help later that day. If tape (like duct tape) had been placed over the lock, we would have paid attention. Trash was tucked away in a separate out building. I hope management gets a trash service soon, there were over 10 bags of trash already there when we arrived. We loved the yard & patio. Lots of chairs provided. The gas grill was clean and started right up. Easy to use! We would definitely come back for another stay.

Perfect except for funky steps

The property was amazing, loved the location, it had everything we needed. The only negative is the steps leading into the house. They are a weird size and shape. People kept tripping on them and my som actually broke his foot when he tripped. That put a damper on the experience as we could not do planned activities. We would definitely stay there again.
