Cute cottage perfectly located in downtown Durango. The cottage itself is well decorated and very nice. My only gripe would be the parking - the bush/tree by the only parking space really needs to be trimmed back or removed since the area is already so tight. Also get rid of the fence panels, and other fence materials since the parking spot is so tight.
