The property is beautiful. We had a few hiccups at the beginning of the trip but Ann did an amazing job taking care of everything very quickly and communicated promptly. I would not miss staying here if the opportunity is there if I were you. I would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful Family Trip
Our family stayed 5 days in this home celebrating my parents 60th wedding anniversary and 80th birthdays. We rode the train to Silverton, hiked, swam in the river and enjoyed downtown Durango. This home provided us the perfect gathering spot. It fit our family - young and old just right. Our stay was complete - easy reservations and payment process, great host communications, good location to local sites, lots of space for everyone (inside and out), beautiful views, plenty of kitchen and bath supplies, and very clean. We would recommend this home to anyone staying in the Durango area. Thank you for sharing your property and helping to make a great trip for our family!

Outstanding Property
We spent a week at this beautiful home outside of Durango. It was the perfect spot for our family of 10. With 6 bedrooms we all had plenty of space and both living areas allowed some to watch movies and play games while others watched the Olympics. We all spent ample time on the large from porch. This area was amazing with beautiful views, lots of seating, a fireplace and a large table where we had a very special dinner! The location was also perfect for trips to Purgatory, Mesa Verde, the Durango train and the nearby Durango Hot Springs. The location was also close to James Ranch which we thoroughly enjoyed! We highly recommend this home!!

Fantastic Property!
We were 3 families staying at this beautiful property. There is plenty of room for everyone. The early birds didn't disturb the night owls and vice versa. Plenty of pool and poker were played while on vacation. You are far enough away from town so it is peaceful, but still not a far drive into Durango. We loved hearing the train each day. The front porch is an amazing place for games, eating and best of all - relaxation! Ann has thought of everything with her property. This vacation home was the easiest stay we ever had! Basic consideration was really all she asked, unlike other places where you have a ton of rules, cleaning expectations, etc. We felt comfortable in her home and treated it like we were staying at a good friend's home. All of us hope to return to Durango again and Ann's home would be our 1st choice!

Beautiful mountain home
We were absolutely delighted from the time we walked into this lovely home until we departed a week later. Situated in a beautiful location up against the red Hermosa cliffs, it overlooks the beautiful Animas valley. The home was very clean, comfortably furnished, and tastefully decorated. We had every single convenience we needed. I have stayed in many VRBO properties over the years, including several in the Durango area, and this was definitely one of the best.

The property was beautiful and well taken care of! Property owner was very helpful with communicating, despite issues with the VRBO site. Property would be a 10/10 if they added a hot tub to the outside front deck.

Awesome As Ever
This is our 3rd time to stay at this beautiful home in Hermosa!! We love its location, scenery, layout, game room and the owners. The owners are always a text away if anything is needed and the caretaker is there taking care of the snow/ice on the driveway. 5-stars!! You can’t get better than that. Thanks Ann for sharing!

A Fantastic Property
We celebrated a 70th birthday with 8 adults and 6 children (2 infants). The house was clean, roomy, and well-stocked. The outside front deck is fabulous and we ate all our meals out there and played games at night. We are talking about a return trip!! The communication with the owner was easy and prompt.

We had a great time! The house was big and the porch was amazing! We ate dinner on the porch every night and then hung out and played games and had a fire. It was a good location, not too far from everything we wanted to do. Would definitely recommend as a great place to stay!
