Relaxing place

We had such a great time relaxing as a family! From the hot tub, cozy fireplace inside and fire pit outside, and games they had available we didn't really need to leave. Made lots of great memories with our kids!

Well Appointed & Room to Spread out

The home was incredibly well appointed and organized. It was as if I was in my own home. The bedding and towels were high quality and so comfortable. The pool table and hot tub were a huge hit with our friends and their teenage sons. Our dog loved the big yard and the evening deer visitors.

Peaceful ranch indeed

We had a wonderful time at the ranch. Our dog loved the 6+ acres of space to roam and we loved the back deck for relaxing. The ranch is well stocked with amenities and the hosts were very responsive. It is easy to get into town for restaurants or groceries.

Durango Retreat

My family (4 adults plus dog) spent a week at this delightful home. It is very spacious, and the decor is very attractive. Our group enjoyed the pool table, hot tub, the fire pit table, and the beautiful outdoor sitting areas. We loved sitting in the back to have cocktails, and we enjoyed all of the birds (hummingbirds, magpies and robins). The dog park near the Albertson’s was a great find. The owner obviously put a lot of thought into the house design and landscaping, and it shows. We would love to return for another visit.

Best place we’ve stayed in Durango

We’ve been coming 2-3 times a year to visit our daughters since 2019 and have stayed in several places. We are all in agreement that this was definitely the best! I was a little worried it would be to far out of town but we were in downtown Durango in 10 minutes or less. It was actually nice to get away from the crowds and sit on the patio and have the beautiful view. We cooked several meals in the spacious kitchen and played pool and used the hot tub. So many great amenities. We will definitely book here again!

Outstanding Stay!

What a nice house with a very helpful, very responsive manager! The house was fully wheelchair accessible with plenty of space in all the rooms. As an advanced manual wheelchair user the ramp was a little steep, but functional. The master bedroom suite was very nice with an outstanding shower with plenty of room for a shower bench. The house was very clean with multiple high quality air purifiers. What a great experience - we will be looking to book this house again in the future!

Beauty and Comfort

We had 11 family members stay from 6/9 —6/13,2024. This house is very clean and updated. The house and surrounding horse property are complete with all necessary amenities. Extra blow up mattress which we didn’t need. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor 2 patios, bbq grill and fire pit. The house has air conditioning and thankfully all the plumbing worked perfectly. We did a lot of cooking and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bonus room and hot tub were definitely a plus (extra room to spread out). Beds were comfy and we had plenty of extra blankets and linens. Location is ideal—away from noise and traffic yet close to Walmart, downtown and Lake Nighthorse. Durango Hot Springs is 20 mins away and a must for adults and children. We definitely recommend this Peaceful Ranchette for your next vacation stay.

We had the BEST experience here. I really enjoyed how baby/kid friendly the whole house was. I also loved all of the “little things” that made a big difference to me.
