About this property

Purgatory Resort home-2 minute walk to ski/plaza- NO resort fees!

This beautiful home is 150 yards to the lifts and plaza - Purgatory Resort (formerly Durango Mountain Resort)

Our stand-alone home has spectacular views all around.

The deck or the balcony is a great place to just relax and enjoy the views or maybe even some wildlife with your family and friends.

In the winter, the horses that pull the sleighs come right by the house and go down to the resort.

Balcony House features 3 bedrooms with queen size beds.

The master bedroom is huge with its own bath and a large walk-in closet. It is located on the main floor. Also on the main floor is the very spacious open concept kitchen, dining and living rooms. The balcony is off the living room and there is a gas bbq on it.
There is also a guest bath located just off the kitchen.

The 2 guest bedrooms are located on the entry floor. There is a full bath on this floor, a family room with a wet bar and great views, a gas fireplace, and a TV. This floor also leads out to the heated garage.

The top floor is a very large loft with 2 futons for relaxing and extra sleeping.

Come and enjoy a wonderful stay.

Family Ski Trip

I've been coming to Colorado and New Mexico on family / group ski trips since I was a kid. This was a great place to stay and true to its description - the beds were comfortable, good size rooms and more than adequate "community" spaces in the kitchen, dinning room and living room. We had one or two [MINOR] snafus but the host was quick on response. Great place.

January Ski Trip

We had a great time staying at this location. The location is idea for quick access to the slopes! Having a garage was idea for storing items and a vehicle or two. This home has a nice small covered porch- perfect for the kiddos to have lunch or a hot cocoa between bouts of playing in the snow. Very nice stay.

Beautiful location!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay in Purgatory at this house. The location was perfect and and the views were beautiful. The house is close enough to Durango and very close to the Million Dollar Highway. The house slept 10 as mentioned (5 beds) but plenty of space to spread out. It was the perfect size for our group!

Dean stay

still an awesome spot and good for the family- it was a bit more dirty than last year and somewhat dated- firewood would be a huge addition. I had to do snow shoveling as there was frozen snow banks on the driveway with just a narrow strip for one car. nice heated garage! We would like to return next year unless the price goes up!

Great location, beautiful views, good space for a group but not clean.

Everythiing was good with the exception of the cleanliness of the property. Dishes were dirty, kitchen counter had food on it from previous guest, bathrooms were not cleaned. Overall the comfort level was not good because the property was dirty.

Really sorry. Had hired company unfamiliar with vacation rentals. They didn’t check cupboards, fridge, windows and drawers because they were used to owner occupied homes. Took us a little while to figure what the issue was. When questioned they felt it wasn’t their responsibility. Again I am really sorry.

Purgatory getaway

location was perfect for all we wanted to do. House allowed us to have a good central spot. The one thing I will share is that the house itself needs to be deep cleaned. Carpets...windows. Hard to enjoy a spectacular view with dirty windows. Owner is nice. I did however appreciate having to haul off trash simply because it did not fit in cleaning service vehicle. I think sometimes the hospitality aspect of some these rentals are lost.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 August 2020
I am really sorry. The crew I had until this summer fell apart when work fell off so they moved out of town. I hired a new company not realizing they were unfamiliar with vacation homes and didn't realize windows and garbage hauling were part of their tasks. Both the cleaning company and I realize the mistake we made so we agreed after a couple of pre-approved cleanings and I can hire a new group. I will get someone to take care of the windows and other items. Thank you for letting me know about these issues. Again I am truly sorry. Debbi

Nice but needs updating

The house was nice and clean, except for the kitchen was dirty, all dishes had a flim on them, the dishwasher was dirty, all the shelves for pots and pans dirty. 2 of the beds had sheets that did not fit. The house is very spacious just needs some updating. The couches were flat and hard, used the grill outside but it was also dirty very old.

I am so sorry. The water is hard on the mountain and is a constant issue that everyone has been trying to resolve. I just changed cleaning companies and they must have used the wrong sheets. I will make sure it gets straightened out. Thanks for the info.
