Where the Buffalo Roam. Private mountain views w/hot tub

Ready to get away from it all? Relax in this private little paradise. Minutes from La Plata County airport, you will be miles from stress. Sit out on the deck and take in the views or watch the sunset from the hot tub. Perhaps you're ready to go outside and play. In 30 minutes or less you can find numerous hiking/ biking trails, lakes, rivers and scenic downtown Durango. Or travel an hour to ski for the day!

Colorado getaway

We stayed at this Vrbo as it was close but not too close to Durango. We loved the seclusion and beautiful views, especially being able to sit outside at night and see so many stars. The property was the perfect size for the two of us! Very cute and cozy!

Nice and very close to Durango

Beautiful location! We enjoyed the cozy space and the fantastic views. Hot tub was a nice bonus. Short (and worth it!) drive into Durango and all of the surrounding areas. Tons of wildlife viewing. Washer/dryer not working when we were there which was a small bummer, but we managed. Driveway is a little steep, but we made it just fine in our small sedan (may be a challenge if too rainy or snowy, though. None of these things negatively impacted our stay but are things to consider. We loved this place! Thanks for accommodating us on our 30th anniversary trip!!

Great Get Away, but had an unexpected visitor

Had a really nice stay, it was very nice, clean, and the hot tub was a very cool perk! The only issue we had was that we were not informed that the neighbor was coming to water the flowers/plants. That scared us as well as her when I came out to ask them what she was doing here. Alittle heads up would of been nice, other than that isolated incident it was a great stay and we would stay there again!

Beautiful & Private retreat

We were in the area to celebrate my grandpa's life in South Fork & wanted to make a weekend out of it due to the travel time. We loved the exclusivity and views (especially from the hot tub!) and the many options to cook on. We enjoyed the front porch for more hours than we were inside but the inside furniture is comfy leather & the bed is on the harder side (which is great for me) so if you prefer softer bring a cover or use the large duvet they have as your base. :) If we ever find ourselves in the area again we will certainly book again! P.S. We are super experienced on and off-road drivers so we made the drive in our Kia Rio - I don't recommend this during the rainy or snowy season, we would certainly have brought the jeep if it was then but wanted to get away with the gas mileage in the commuter.

Great, quiet location. Perfect for a couples retreat in the country but near Durango. The views of the La Platas and San Juans are outstanding.
