Great house in a great location.

David was very responsive to our questions both before and during our trip. The location is quiet with great views of the lake and mountains. While you’re there do yourself a favor and visit The Nugget, it looks like a tiny hole in the wall bar and it kinda is but the people are great and the live music is fun.

Perfect location, incredible house, unbelievable view!

This home is first class! We stayed here while we skied at Wolf Creek. The home was an oasis and the perfect place for us to wind down by the fire each night! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and gorgeous views of the mountains.

Close to the slopes!!

Great spot for enjoying the slopes and then returning to a cozy home with fire place and hot tub! If it is snowing making sure you have 4x4 drive and maybe even chains.

Great View, Dedicated Team

We loved staying at this home. The hot tub and the TV were both affected and not working for part of our trip but both the host and property manager did their best to find a satisfactory solution.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 February 2022
Thanks for staying with us! We were able to source one of the two pumps for the hot tub locally so its back working now! We're also working to get the satellite TV people back out to the house. What happens is sometimes snow falls off the roof and hits the satellite, causing a misalignment.

Ski week

Went to Durango for week of skiing with 5 other friends. The house & location was perfect. Comfortable living area, great views, beautiful hot tub and functional kitchen. Manager should check lockbox which sticks a little. Highly recommend this house.

Great location/great house

This house was perfect for my family of 4. We loved the location and the accommodations were great. More difficult to get to the lake than I imagined- but we made it. We were there when the leaves were changing and it was breathtaking!

Great place to stay, everyone was comfortable from the minute we opened the front door. There was nothing we needed once we got there, just look around the house and you will find it. Honestly couldn’t have needed anything more!!!
