The needs of our 9 Ladies for our reunion called for a big kitchen, lots of inside lounging areas, and outdoor lounging, plenty of bathroom space, comfy beds, cleanliness and a well stocked bar!The Lucky Dog Ranch checked ALL our boxes, AND, it is a beautiful space in our beautiful forest.
We had an amazing 3 night stay at the Lucky Dog Ranch. We were a party of 4 adults and 5 kids (ages 11, 10, 8, 7, and 5). The sleeping spaces were clean and comfortable. The house is spacious with ample places to spread out. The kids loved the hot tub, ping pong and cornhole. The great room was a perfect spot to hang and watch a movie or play games. The house is completely appointed with all of the cooking essentails. Great location within proximity to town. Molly was easy to communicate with, and she even provided us with a contact for a babysitter (thanks, Pam)! 10/10 recommend and would for sure look to book again if we are to find ourselves in Durango in the future.
Absolutely loved this house! Great arrangement for family ski vacation. Kitchen was perfect and had every utensil / cookware imaginable (we cooked all our gourmet meals)! Hot tube was icing on the cake! Great host! Highly recommend the “ranch”!
Fantastic time and the home fit our family perfectly
Great time. Not much in the way of family dining in town unless your looking for pizza and burgers. Weather was a little warm, but we all had a great time as a family
This house has lots of space to spread out and plenty of sleeping spaces. Great spaces to gather when we wanted to all be together and great spaces to retreat during quiet and down times. We had a group of 10 adults and teens and were very comfortable. The location and the beauty surrounding the house is stunning. The house has almost everything you need. It lacks a toaster (the toaster oven is small and slow) and a metal spatula for flipping burgers on the well working grill. Minor stuff! Our biggest issue is the house gets hot and stuffy in the late summer afternoons despite all the suggested efforts to keep it cool. The basement stays cool so it was an ok place to escape. Loved the ping pong table, the hot tub, gas fire pit, and the deck seating. We would absolutely stay there again!!
