If you want to venture out and explore, Hesperus Ski Area is around 19 miles away, and all the shops, restaurants, and amenities in either Durango or Farmington are around 25 miles away. If you're here to fish, you'll love the private river access behind the main house and private pond north of the barn. Lake Nighthorse is 23 miles away. At home, spend time outside on either the front or back deck, both covered, then relax on the covered patio by the private pool. Inside, you'll find two levels of space to spread out. The main floor features an open layout, ideal for spending time together. Use the full kitchen to turn out mealtime masterpieces, then grab a bite at the dining table or breakfast bar. Spend evenings chatting in front of the wood-burning fireplace or scrolling social media with the free WiFi. At the end of the day, four serene bedrooms await.
