Garden Home, private and spacious with hot tub, only 5 minutes to city center
The Garden Home is only 4miles north of downtown Durango and has a park like setting on an acre of land. This home is a wonderful relaxing getaway with the exterior features such as a large deck, HOT TUB, BBQ grill, and fire pit, all for personal use. The main bedroom and bathroom are on the first floor and a spiral staircase leads to 2 additional bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor. It's the perfect home for any season, as you can enjoy the flowerbeds in the summer or snuggle up by the fireplace in the winter. Home has central AC for those hot summer months and a wood burning stove stocked with wood for you during the winter months. Bonus is that it's only 20min to Purgatory! The host occasionally stays next door.

Place was amazing all around! Great location between Durango and Purgatory, just in North side of Durango. Everything was convenient drive. Plane was nostalgic family vibes, you can envision the oldbasement shop Great hotttub!
It was comfortable and had everything we needed on site. My bed was comfortable (downstairs); however, a friend thought the beds upstairs were not. That may be all personal preferences. The stairs are a little tricky for older people and luggage.
We enjoyed this quaint house for our family vacation to Durango. The property is in a nice and quiet location. The deck, hot tub, and propane grill were the highlight for us!
This house was exactly what we were looking for our weekend wedding stay. Clean, convenient, quiet. Had only one minor issue with getting into the house and the host was responsive and rectified it immediately. Couldn't recommend the house and host more, and bookmarked for future stays.
This house made my family feel right at home. Very comfortable surroundings with a hot tub we enjoyed! Close to all activities in and around Durango. Be advised the spiral staircase to second floor makes lugging suitcases a bit tricky.
We loved staying here! This property is beautiful, with tons of green surrounding it. The home was clean and great for families, with several beds and two bathrooms. Communication with the hosts was also excellent. We hope to stay here again and highly recommend this place!
We had a wonderful time staying here. The house was clean, the host was considerate, and the garden was beautiful! It was easy to find and instructions were clear. Only 10 min to downtown, and 2 minutes to Oxbow park, we enjoyed the city and nature. So nice to walk near the river.
Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!
This was a fantastic house. The gardens were beautiful and the house felt like a home. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchen tools and basic spices. We wish we'd had more time to enjoy the relaxing house and gardens during our stay.
We had a wonderful in Durango andcat the house. Fly-fishing in thecarea was great, we found great restaurants in Durango, and the evening mule deer visiting the apricot tree on the property provided great photo ops!
This home was perfect for our family adventure to Durango. It was comfortable, cozy and family friendly. Great back patio with hot tub and beautiful backyard. Large living space with fire place. We arrived just a tad early and met the owner Lori. Wonderful and friendly lady. The property was close to downtown Durango. We really enjoyed our stay here. Book it! You won't be disappointed!
Nice home. Perfect for 2. Close to Purgatory ski area. Quiet, clean, private, and well equipped. WiFi good. Hot Tub excellent. Manager very responsive to our questions. Only issue was getting cable services working in the main living area. Did resolve issue the next day.
Will return again..............
It’s pretty outdated so don’t expect a new rental. Smelled like a smoker lived there but it wasn’t too bad. A little fe breeze masked it well. Host didn’t respond too quickly but overall, it was a fine stay. Decent location and quiet neighborhood. The place needs some basic updates and some plumbing issues fixed. We had a nice time on the deck and the hot tub was clean.
We've stayed at a number of rentals being houses, condos, etc. This one rates right up there at the top. Spacious house, lots of amenities with quick and responsive host. Nothing was missing. Pictures do not do this place justice. It is close to town and right on the road to Purgatory. Wifi was great, all of us were hooked up, not different than most of us these days. Outdoor Weber grill and hot tub. Thanks!!
The home was a great fit for our family of four (2 adults and 2 kids) and easily could have snuck in another kiddo or two. There was plenty of bedding, a few games stashed away if we had actually had enough time to play them, and a variety of tv streaming service options after an evening soak in the hot tub. The home has had fabulous quick, direct access to town. The one drawback we had was finding mouse feces in the kitchen drawers (not out of the ordinary in a mountain town with the temps dropping, but still should have been sanitized properly). I notified the owner and she immediately responded and addressed our concerns.
