I found this condo in very good condition and a good value for three nights after Christmas. Provides great access to both Durango and the mountains. The view out of the window is exceptional. Salt & pepper and a potato peeler would be nice to have.

This is our third stay at this condo (same room). It is perfect for our family and has always been clean. The drive to and from Durango is close and we usually see the train, river, and wildlife. The location is also ideal if you want to go to Silverton or Ouray. Thank you for allowing visitors to make this a special place to visit.

Lodge was nice. amenities are beautiful and staff is very friendly. Unit was dated and mattresses were extremely uncomfortable.
The room was boiling. Had to have the AC on the lowest setting at all times. Still was hot. Room was super dusty. Beds were so hard it was like sleeping on the ground. Sleeper sofa mattress dipped below the metal bars for a 10yo girl. And on top if that the pool has posted hours open until 10p and they kick everyone out at 9p.

We were unsure of condo rentals as it was our first time. The stay was great! We had an easy (touch free- Covid) check in. The room was clean and very comfortable for our family of 5. We used the indoor pool once which was nice on a rainy afternoon. Otherwise we utilized the location to get onto 4WD trails around Silverton and Ouray and had easy access to Durango for in town needs. We will stay again!

It was fine for a quick stay but I kept thinking if only the owner spent just a little bit more on better quality sheets, pillows, soap, cutlery etc it would dramatically change the feel of the stay. For example the bed skirt was duct taped onto the base, I had to fold two pillows in half to make one, and there was hair and crumbs in the fold out bed. We came a little early and asked reception to mind our bags while we hit the slopes and they said we could put them in the lounge but they could not be put in a safe area. Was disappointed with this given checkin is 4pm and every hotel in the world minds bags because it’s hard to get travel schedules to perfectly align with checkin times. The spa was really great and worth a visit. This increased my overall rating.

It was ok. Property and room were dated and over-priced. Lack of services on property was not communicated. Nearest coffee/breakfast is a 15-minute drive. For what it was, may as well stay in a motel in Durango where services are nearby.

We stopped here for two nights on our way home from the Grand Canyon. It was a last minute choice, but I am very glad we did. The view was beautiful from our window (you are able to watch the sunrise). The room is set up like a hotel room, but larger, and includes a leather sofa, table for 4, and a small kitchen with standard appliances. It was fine for making ourselves toast and cereal in the morning, but I would not recommend it for large meals as there is no counter space (we used the stove for a counter). There is a coffee pot, but be sure you bring your own coffee. This is stated, and we had our food with us, so wasn’t an issue for us. I would suggest that they add a peeler and some decent knives to the kitchen. The few supplied were dull with wobbly handles. Also, more coffee mugs (there are 3). And a mirror in the room would be nice for those of us with daughters lol. The pool is AMAZING! We didn’t try the property restaurant, but highly recommend the James Ranch burgers just south. They are well worth the wait time! This location is wonderful and we hope to come back.

Great time for all the family. We were able to enjoy the pools and hot tub and the restaurant on site. The outdoor porch was a nice place to sit and enjoy the beautiful weather. The mattress on the sofa bed was kind of thin and you can feel the springs so we just slept on the couch instead of pulling it out. The kitchen was just right loved having a full refrigerator to store our items since we were on a multiple stop road trip. Having a washer and dryer on each floor was great because we were able to do a load before leaving. Overall a great stay only downside was that it was not long enough.
Loved the views and ease to find snow to play in with our kids! We liked that we were far enough out of town to enjoy the scenery and animals but still close to businesses like Purgatory, sleigh rides, Honeyville and restaurants.
The property was better than what we expected. The location was the best part. Stunning views from our room. Close enough to Durango and the ski resort for summer activities.
