Thank you for the kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the property and found the location convenient for both town and easy access to Purgatory. We’d love to host you again in the future.
We enjoyed the overall space. We felt at home. We really enjoyed the outdoor fire pit. It took me a couple of days to realize it was gas so we didn’t use it right away.

Great Getaway~
Loved the house and the cozy neighborhood. The only drawbacks were the grill and dishwasher. We grill a lot and it was a struggle to cook on it so we weren't able to make that happen. The dishwasher had no heating element and the clean dishes were always dripping with water.Small issues which can be easily remedied.
The property was excellent. Very clean and had all things needed for our stay. We enjoyed the backyard with the fire pit and hot tub. Would totally stay at this property again.

Thank you for staying with us and thank you for being wonderful guests. Happy you enjoyed our wonderful Animas Valley home. We'd welcome you back anytime.
We really enjoyed our stay here. We have our own VRBO property and this one was taken care of the way we'd take care of ours. It was away from the noise of town but close enough to go for dinner. Nice proximity to the golf course. We'd definately stay here again.

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the care we put into our property. It’s great that you found the location peaceful yet convenient for dining and golf. We’d love to welcome you back anytime—safe travels until then!
The setup of the home had great flow; everything was wonderfully appointed, especially the kitchen. We loved the fire pit for roasting marshmallows. We brought the dog so having a completely fenced yard was great. The location was perfect, near the grocery store ,near enough to both town and the ski resort. We have rented vacation homes at ski resorts and in San Diego but this house is exceptional.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the flow of the home and found everything well-appointed—especially the kitchen. It’s wonderful that you made great use of the fire pit for roasting marshmallows and that your pup had a blast in the fully fenced yard! We also love the location for its convenience to town, the ski resort, and everyday essentials, so we're glad it worked out perfectly for your stay. Knowing that our home stands out among your past vacation rentals means the world to us. We’d love to welcome you back for another stay in the future!
Very nice rental. Great from standpoint of one level. Easy to get around and nice for toddlers safe with no stairs to worry about. Well equipped kitchen. Convenient location

Thank you for being our guests. Happy you enjoyed our well equipped home and it's convenient location. Hope to have you back.
This was the nicest VRBO we have ever stayed in. The house had everything you needed during your stay. The kitchen was stocked with some basic staples and commonly used spices and oils. The beds were comfortable with extra pillows and blankets. The location was central to the things we wanted to do. We couldn’t have asked for more!

house rental
it was a lovely home with everything in great order. the hot tub was wonderful and cleanest i have seen. the ping pong in the garage was a bonus. very nice experience
Beautiful and clean home with lots of extras! Loved the neighborhood and area! Kitchen cookware, utensils and even spices were a super nice touch for us! We enjoy cooking rather than eating out everyday during vacation. Loved the backyard with the fire pit and hot tub! Furniture and beds were super comfy too!!!

Family of 6 Enjoyed Durango and all it offers
We recently stayed at Animas Valley View in Durango, and it was a wonderful experience! The location was perfect, nestled in a beautiful area with easy access to local attractions and outdoor activities. The host was incredibly welcoming, providing us with helpful tips and recommendations for our stay. The property itself was clean, cozy, and well-equipped, making us feel right at home. We especially loved the charming decor and the easy access to skiing in Purgatory and dinners in downtown Durango. Overall, a fantastic place to unwind and explore Durango. Highly recommend!

Quick trip to durango
Lovely house in a very quiet neighborhood. Nicely furnished with comfortable furniture. The only issues we had were with the management of the property. It had lovely outdoor space but need a good clean up. We could not use the grill..Dirty with leftover meat . Outdoor furniture covered in cobwebs....weeds over your knees. left over used marshmallow sticks from the previous stay.

Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the issues you encountered during your stay. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the outdoor space condition and the grill's cleanliness.
Please know that we have taken immediate steps to address these concerns to ensure they do not happen again. Your comfort and satisfaction are very important to us, and we appreciate your understanding.
We hope to have the opportunity to host you again and provide a better experience.
The property is beautiful, clean, and very well appointed, though place mats would have been nice. The hot tub was clean and fully functional, which is always a dicey proposition at a rental property. Our only constructive comment would be to please leave more toilet paper. The 3-roll per bathroom rule feels a little nickle-and-dime and it necessitated an extra trip to the store. We'd have gladly paid $5 more per night in rent for a generous supply.
