We return to this property every year to spend Christmas because it is the perfect place to cozy up and spend time together as a family. The beds and bedrooms are comfortable and cozy and the kitchen and living area have everything we need to make yummy meals and enjoy various activities including playing board games, reading, talking and opening our gifts!We so appreciate the Christmas tree where we place our gifts and love the view outside. The location is fantastic halfway between Durango and Purgatory with a grocery store nearby. I can't not say enough wonderful things about this place. We look forward to staying here again next Christmas!
We had the best stay here. The home had everything we needed. The sofa and loveseat in the living area is where we spent our time talking and watching TV. Everything looked brand new. Beds were comfortable. Great water pressure in the showers. Lots of hangers for clothes. We walked in the mornings, and there was great area for walks. We tried the Hermosa Creek grill our first day. It's a 5 minute walk. We normally like to try different restaurants every day, but we ate at this one every day. It is phenomenal. I wish we had this restaurant at home. Overall a great stay!
Our stay was great. The property was well maintained and we had no complaints whatsoever. The house seems fairly new and quite spacious. We found pots, pans, utensils, extra towels, etc. In fact, we had no reason to contact the owners unless we wanted to tell them how pleased we were. We would definitely come here again should Durango be our vacation spot. Thank you Cheryl & Russell for providing such a wonderful opportunity to our family. The Boyds
We had a wonderful stay! The property itself it gorgeous with the creek easily accessible from the house. One of the things we were most impressed with is that they had everything we needed and more. From all the necessary kitchen utensils to a changing pad in case there were little ones. They truly thought of everything. Close to town but far enough away to feel special. We would definitely stay here again.
Cute, clean and convenient- But not a cottage in the woods.
Property was clean and well taken care of. There is a nice river/creek on the backside of the property.
One suggestion:Add curtains to the bed rooms so that they can be darkened. It was hard to get my toddler to sleep because the room was too bright.
One complaint: The listing makes it seem the property is in the woods. It is on a gravel slab with 5 other buildings. I was so confused when I arrived as there no photos indicating this on the listing. It would be helpful and appropriate for the owner to post a photo of the actual property and surrounding areas.
We had a great time staying at Paintbrush Enterprises. The house was very clean and in a very good condition. We appreciated the space around the house and the closeness of the creek. The property owners were in touch with us and very responsive. I would definitely recommend staying there. Wish there was some dedicated space for winter gear (skis/snowboards, etc.), if we went there in wintertime.
