I appreciate all comments, however, Mountain Majesty is a "Country" Home and is not a modernized home with "modern" furniture. My interior designer's opinion is that modern furniture would be anti style for a country home:)
This was a great location to go to Durango or Mesa Verde! The space was big enough for six adults to comfortably hang out and visit. The kitchen was well stocked, the bathrooms clean and the beds comfortable. We had a snag in our stay but Ron was prompt in getting back to us and fixing the problem. We had a great time! Thanks.
Easy access and the house was very accommodating. I did not have to contact the owner during our visit so that says a lot in its own! Highly recommend this rental for family vacations. Views were breathtaking.
The main attractions of this home are its proximity to downtown Durango and its location in a picturesque area. The home was clean but dated. The host was accommodating when needed.
The host was very easy to communicate with and worked with my group to allow us the option of checking in an hour early, if needed. When we arrived, the house was very spacious with lots of room to accommodate our party of 9, and the views were awesome. We were there to spend a day on the Durango Silverton Narrow Gauge steam train and the Mountain Majesty was the perfect place to stay.
The upstairs living quarters could get toasty during the day, even with all the shades pulled. It was very clean, which is always appreciated and the kitchen was well stocked with pans, strainers, gadgets and everything we needed, including 2 coffee pots. We saw a bear from the back deck and a coyote out by the cars! Mattresses were comfy.

It truly sounds like ur visit was great. Why only a 3 star review. Houses in Colorado can get warm in the summer especially in July.
Don't stay in Durango - stay in the mountains where there is Elk, deer, bobcats, and cool temperatures. The home is fun - great for gatherings. Close to Mesa Verde and Durango. Leave the city and come to the quiet setting and listen to birds wake you in the morning. The owner is also great to work with - good response time and accurate. Willing to make things good when needed.
We chose this location because we wanted to explore Durango and Mesa Verde. It was perfect! The view is amazing and the house was comfy and had plenty of room to spread out. We’d recommend it for sure!
