"This charming cottage with a front porch looking across a bubbling brook to a small pond with mountains in the distance was such a better option than a chain hotel room with common hallways. It is a bit out of town but you can go into historic Durango for activities and then return here for a peaceful sleep, a pastoral setting and a delightful breakfast with other guests. More room for kids to move around in or go check out the chickens at Chick Inn. "

"Great place to stay in Durango. Close to everything. Just right outside Durango. Easy access to Purgatory. Grocery store, gas station and hardware store all within a mile. "

"This cabin is lovely. I enjoyed all the personalized touches, decor and location. I appreciate the great lighting inside as well."

"Our stay was amazing. The host was so gracious. The house was well appointed and so comfortable. We’d gladly come back to the Rustic Rooster the next time we are in Durango. Of all the places to stay in the north Durango area, we are so happy to have selected this one. "

"Wonderful space for family to gather together in the beautiful spaces of Durango. We loved the location as we like to be out of town a bit so it's quiet and peaceful. We hiked behind the house, rode the train to Silverton, enjoyed the Durango Hot Springs, cooked a little, ate out a bit and everyone had a really wonderful time. Our host was very kind and helpful and made us feel at home."

"Great home for a family reunion!"

"The property was clean and spacious for large family group. Beautiful view from the deck. Host was great. Wonderful place to stay!"

"First off, the setting and scenery were amazing, we were here in the summer, and the grounds with the rivers and flowers were really amazing. We had a multigenerational group of 14, and it fit us well. The large open kitchen and living room, with large dining tables inside and out were great for our group to prepare and eat large meals.The bunk room was great for all of the kids, and had its own bathroom.Three other rooms upstairs were good for adults, and shared one bathroom, which was a little tight, but with a little communication about showering, etc. was workable.The downstairs master suite was huge, with walk-in closet, shower with multiple spray nozzles, etc. Very nice space.We did have an issue with the AC upstairs one day, and management company was able to send someone to fix next day. It did seem like a known issue (the AC guy knew what the issue was before he got there).For a place that is a premium place, it also seemed a little stingy on the amenities. Arrival instructions before we arrived said that the place came with one roll of paper towels, one trash bag per can, and two rolls of TP per bathroom. Not that big of a deal because we had to go the grocery store anyway, but I’ve stayed in much more budget places that had plenty of TP, enough coffee for every day, etc. so it seemed a little misaligned with how nice everything else was. Overall, an amazing place, and I’d go back, but adding these notes for transparency,"

"One of the best VRBO's that we have stayed in. Very clean and well equipped. Very quiet and a beautiful view out to the backyard and the creek. Indeed a slice of heaven. We loved it all!!!"
