Clean, directly across from ski lift with a well stocked kitchen. The pictures do not do this place justice. The master suite was delightful with a fireplace and seating area. It was the perfect spot to ring in the new year with our family. We hope to be back! ##### Danielle L.

Reviewer Comments: This rental was the absolute perfect spot for our family of four and all the things we wanted to do around Purgatory and Durango...unit has all of the amenities, is clean, comfortable and we really loved the location and neighborhood. Fishing pond, hiking trails, local restaurants and literally across the street from Purgatory. We will be back! ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela B. 1 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Christmas ski trip! We are a family of 7 with 5 kids. House was decorated for Christmas! Ski bus picked us up within 5 minutes of calling. 2 fireplaces keep the house warm. Love the keypad access so no fumbling for keys. Crockpot and griddle were a plus. Wish there were 9x13 casserole pans. ##### Angela B.

Reviewer Comments: This place is so beautiful! Right across the street from Purgatory and just a short drive from Durango, it was the perfect location for our little family and pups to spend the 4th. The kitchen is nicely appointed with great knives and cookware. As someone who cooks a lot, it’s awesome to have higher end items in a rental spot. There is a gorgeous pond, walking trail and playground nearby, which was awesome for our pups and kids. The Nugget was a fabulous find with a super fun atmosphere and fantastic food. Cannot wait to come back and spend more time here. ##### Ashton R. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 30 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Disappointed The condo we had reserved was not available.. Luckily I checked my email that morning and saw where they had changed our unit. The condo they gave us didn't have two king beds which is specifically why we had reserved the one we did. We paid the extra 4% fee to use the hot tub but it was a drive aross the highway and then quite a walk from parking lot. The patio was very noisy with highway traffic. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Mendy P. 11 Jul 2024 #### Family Get Together Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall positive. Management staff was very responsive and tried to help. We did have a communication error. The single queen bedroom bed IS built into the three walls, so two people sleeping DO have to crawl over each other to get out. There is no AC. Ceiling fans, one box fan and one desk fan were not enough. We never cooled off upstairs past 72 degrees at night. And we had to keep all doors open to have air flow. Traffic noise from Hwy 550 is loud with windows and doors open in summer time. Trash must be loaded in your car and driven to a parking lot down the highway. So don’t pack your car to leave until you have done that task! Its location was our primary request. We made it work. ##### Mendy P.

The master bedroom sheets had hair and stains on them. The master shower also had hair in it on the walls. The master bathtub looked like it had not been cleaned in quite some time. Location and neighborhood were quite nice although would have been nice to know about ongoing construction. ##### Dyann W.

This place has the perfect location, close proximity to the resort and all it's amenities as well as the hiking trails. It was so easy to walk right out the door and hit a local trail with stunning views! We also loved the layout of this unit, perfect for a family. Everyone had their own space to relax. We loved the cozy sitting room off the master suite and it seemed to be the favorite spot for family tv watching in the evenings. Will definitely stay again! ##### Ashley B.

All the luxurys of home. We didn't need to take anything but our belongings and food. The only thing we weren't aware of was the additional fee for pool and hot tub. Also be aware that they are across the road at Pergatory. ##### Linda B.
