This was a perfect getaway for my family in a perfect location, just what we needed. The secluded location and the most AMAZING VIEWS made our visit spectacular. We will absolutely stay here again and we want to bring friends so they can experience this special place.

Breathtaking!!
I rent a lot of nice properties and this one was no exception!!! The house is clean, new and lovely!! Had basic supplies, laundry soap, dish soap, shampoo, conditioner, soap, etc. There were trash bags in the trash cans, plus basic seasonings possibly left by others, as well as coffee filters and coffee. The deck views are breathtaking, nice area to hike in the woods and are close to town with great restaurants and shops. Id come again:)

Great stay in Durango!
We stayed in Durango at Mountain Retreat for a get together of long time friends and our families traveling from several different states. The house is spacious and nicely decorated and the view is absolutely amazing. It’s only about 25 minutes to downtown. When we arrived one of the twin beds did not have linens and it took several phone calls over 24 hours to get the linens delivered to us which was inconvenient. However the property manager also brought us extra fans because it was quite warm so we really appreciated that. The only other issue we had is that the railing for upstairs poses a safety issue- the railing posts are placed extremely wide apart and I’m sure can’t be up to code. I wasn’t comfortable with my toddler going upstairs because he could have easily fallen through so we had to reshuffle the sleeping arrangements. Otherwise we really enjoyed our stay and would consider returning!

Be aware......
We have stayed at numerous vrbos and this ranked among the worst. There were 10 of us in the group and we were told this home would work for a group our size. They do not have 3 twin beds as stated, and only 2 full baths, and the other bath is 3/4. They did not have any trash bags, 1 dishwasher pod, 6 towels, no extra linens, no extra toilet paper or paper towels, no remote for the tv and the trash 'shed' had not been emptied in weeks. The 'shed' was filled with bags of trash and the stench was awful. The fridge froze our produce. We also closed one of the bedroom doors, only to find out it was a keyed door and it locked. We called Vacasa and they simply said sorry, we can't do anything until 9:00 the next morning. We were locked out of 2 bedrooms that had our belongings. We were able to get in through a window after an hour of trying to see if Vacasa would help. Lastly and most important, the fire alarm started beeping, so we opened it up. The batteries were dated 2020. This is a major safety concern. We have since contacted Vacasa and the local property manager has not returned any communication.

Lovely mountain home!
We very much enjoyed our stay here with 4 adults, 4 kids. The kids enjoyed playing outside for hours on end! Building snowmen, sledding, building snow forts, etc. Updated kitchen. Had a lovely time!
