Give yourself and your loved ones a break from the hustle and bustle, while you revel in the peace that surrounds this dog-friendly Durango retreat.

Located 16 miles from Durango, this scenic cabin allows you to leave your busy life behind for a while and enjoy the privacy of nature. During the winter, we recommend using a 4x4 vehicle to get here safely.

Wood accents and vaulted ceilings create a wide open main living area - the perfect spot to get together. Catch up with your favorite book as the wood stove warms the room, or choose a vinyl from the collection to play on the stereo-style turntable. With no WiFi or TV, you'll be able to connect with your guests and make some alpine memories.

The private washer/dryer will keep the dirty clothes at bay while you take Fido out on the deck to bask in the views. Spend the afternoon sipping a local brew as the sun dips past the trees.

Make dinner in the fully equipped kitchen while your guests kick back at the breakfast bar. Put the stainless steel appliances to work, and then dine on the deck while the dishwasher takes care of the cleanup.

This one-room (plus loft) one-bathroom home can sleep up to four guests and one small dog (please note a 60-pound weight limit). The bedroom on the main level features a queen-size bed, while the upstairs loft also has a soft queen-size bed for your guests.

The small building is set among the trees and offer the perfect spot to enjoy the serenity of the forest.

Pack a snack and explore the trails that weave through the San Juan National Forest. Fly fish or kayak along the Animas River. Enjoy a seasonal brew or two and a night out at the Steamworks Brewery in Durango, and take to the slopes at Purgatory Resort.

Give yourself a break from the hustle and bustle with a tranquil trip to this Colorado retreat!

Great Views. FILTHY.
Pros: Privacy, great views, and the outdoor space is exceptional. That’s where this ends. Cons: one word can describe this place. FILTHY. This place is covered in cob webs. On the ceiling fans. On the overhangs holding the pots and pans. When you first walk into the property you are greeted with the smell of mildew from the washer and dryer. The blinds fell off the front door as soon as we opened it. The blind sun the whole property are extremely old. In the main bedroom downstairs they replaced what seems like a broken pull cord of a blind with a rusty screw, which we almost cut our hand on. They have a guest book and it shows others months prior have complained about cleanliness and they’ve done nothing to address it. The beds are extremely uncomfortable. Old furniture, uncomfortable pillows. I could go on. Very disappointed and won’t be back.

Cute Cabin Getaway
The cabin and location itself are stunning, could have been a little cleaner as we saw some dust bunnies and dead spiders about. Some of the dishes were not clean and had food residue. The wood stove and record player were a great way to spend our evenings. The cabin is situated on a steep hill but with no snow our AWD Subaru Legacy was able to go up and down it just fine. The area itself was quiet and remote- about 25 minutes from Durango proper. I recommend planning ahead for meals as the grocery stores in town charge an arm and a leg, not to mention the restaurants. All in all my husband, dog, and I enjoyed our much needed getaway.

Outtanding View
At first we were concerned about how cold it would be inside. Yup, we even brought extra blankets. The provided space heaters helped a lot until we got the wood stove burning. Then, it is as nice and toasty. We didn't need those blankets for our entire stay. That stove kicks out tons of heat! Upon first sight the cabin looked very clean but it could use a good dusting. There were cobwebs on the light fixtures, loft railing, etc. The dishes were lacking too. And replace the pots and pans. They're not usable. Glad we brought our own. Hand soap in the kitchen would have been nice. Please provide a dining table and chairs for conversing, games, puzzles, etc. Sitting at a counter is not condusive for any of these and you only have 3 stools anyway for a cabin that sleeps 4. We found this to be shortsighted. When the listing mentions the steep, potentially difficult drive up, believe it! We arrived after dusk, and even with a 4 wheel drive, not being able to see well, it was iffy in spots. The drive when we left, in full light, revealed what we encountered. Whoa! Let's just say it was revealing. The bed was very comfy. We slept well. It is super peaceful and quiet here. Your cares dissolve away. Be sure to enjoy the outstanding views from the deck. You'll want to stay much longer. If it had not been winter we would have venture further outside to enjoy more of this little slice of heaven. Overall a wonderful and fantastic stay! Thanks, Vacasa (and , of course, the owners)!

Not the best stay
Not super clean, missing essentials like additional toilet tissue, fire making supplies, clothes soap. Wood was not gathered at back door like last stay at this property. The thermostat was fixed at 54° which is 10 degrees colder than last stay at this property. Pots and pans were unusuable as the teflon coating was destroyed. Tried to contact property manager twice, by text and email with no reply. Overall a very disappointing and cold stay. We left 2 days early.

Cute cabin in serene location
Overall we Enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It had all the things needed for our stay. The location is close enough to town but quite and serene. The only cons I would mention is that the bed in main bedroom was very firm and the water had a strange oder.

Cozy and Relaxing
We are a family of three with two dogs. We spent 7 nights at this cabin and really enjoyed our stay. The views are amazing (the cabin backed up to the forest with no neighbors) and despite their being neighbors on both sides, we didn't hear or see them. The cabin had everything we needed to make the stay comfortable. No internet or TV which didn't bother us. We brought our hot spot which worked fine. We played games which are plentiful at the cabin, and just enjoyed the evenings on the deck after a day of hiking or sight seeing. We rated this cabin a 4 because it could use some updating (new pots and pans, linens) and because of the cleaning. It was surface clean but needs additional attenion (couches need to be cleaned, furniture moved, carpets/floor rugs cleaned). Overall, we recommend this cabin.

Our Second Time…
This was our second stay and once again the propriety didn’t disappoint! It’s the perfect space to spend quality time as a family since there is no Wi-Fi or Tv. It’s a cozy, privately located cabin with beautiful views. The kids enjoyed sledding down the sloped property and an unused road across the street. We plan to stay again next year.

My husband and I stayed here with are two sons and loved the cabin. My boys had fun playing on the back deck and it was a nice piece of mind knowing you could shut the gates on the deck to keep them in.The cabin provided us with a daily serenade from a neighbor near by. The cabin also has everything you could possibly need while on vacation.

Perfect getaway from technology
Our family was surprised but happy to find that there is no TV or WIFI at the property. We were planning to disconnect from technology this trip and not even having the option helped my kids get creative in their play. We loved the collection of records and cassette tapes and discovered new favorite songs and artists from the past. My kids didn’t want to leave so we will definitely be visiting again soon!

Great getaway
Just what my husband and I needed after my daughters wedding to decompress and relax. Very quiet and remote. We felt the area around the yoga studio and under deck swing were a little grown up, obstructing any views. That did not stop us from enjoying the great views from the deck! Would return and would reccommend.
