Cozy Cottage perfect for a couple or small family

This cozy cottage is just minutes from downtown Durango as well as two miles from Lake Nighthorse which is a lovely large recreational lake. The well appointed layout of this newly remodel space has a large downstairs bedroom, a gabled upstairs area that can accommodate an extra guest or can be used as an office. The kitchen opens up into a spacious dining area as well as a living room with a large screen TV and a sleeper sofa. If you are looking to sit outside and enjoy the sunset dipping behind the mountains you have a sun room to enjoy, if it is chilly out, or your own private side patio. Enjoy all Durango has to offer with hiking, paddle boarding, mountain biking and whitewater all within 10 minutes of this great setting.
This is a classic mother-in-law space that shares a wall with the main house.

Wonderful getaway

This property was perfect for our getaway to Durango. Kristin was around to answer any of our questions. This is a quaint little cottage that offered all of the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay. A little off the beaten path of the downtown area, but we appreciated the quiet, peaceful setting.

Cozy Cottage in Durango Corado

Cozy Cottage in Durango, COThis spacious, spotless cottage felt like a home away from home. The bed was comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked with coffee, tea, and a few welcome goodies in the fridge. There’s also a loft—great for families—though we didn’t need it. We especially enjoyed the enclosed porch, perfect for relaxing and spotting wildlife in the backyard. Just 15 minutes from downtown Durango and the Durango & Silverton railway station, the location is ideal. We highly recommend this charming and peaceful getaway!

Even though we only stayed a few nights we really enjoyed how secluded the rental was. We were able to enjoy Main St. Durango, and the quiet tranquility of the VRBO. Great location for any type of activities you're wanting to do while you're in Durango. It's super close to the downtown area, and also close to Lake Nighthorse where you can hike or have fun playing in the lake. The home had everything we needed, and plenty of space for the next time we hope to visit with our kiddo.
