The Cozy Cottage was probably the best rental I've ever had. The cottage was so quiet, comfortable and well-stocked. We were treated each morning to a herd of mule deer as they meandered through the area, stopping in the yard to munch on the vegetation. The there was no light pollution and the sky at night was incredible. The cottage is close to Historic Downtown Durango and Mesa Verde National Park. The hosts were absolutely fabulous to work with. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Great property outside of town. Quiet neighborhood and great host. Bed was comfortable and everything was stocked above and beyond. You can tell a lot of thought goes into making their guests comfortable!
Me and my family loved the house and the location. Evening walks on a dirt road saw deer and amazing sunsets. Great location easy accessible to Durango an hour away from Mesa Verde. Would stay and recommend this place to anyone
We loved staying in such a beautiful place that was close to Durango yet private and peaceful. We loved it and would absolutely stay there again as I would love to live there!
