About this property

Inviting cabin with lovely lake & mountain views - close to town & hiking

  • Enjoy an upscale mountain getaway just four miles west of Durango at this beautiful cabin-style home in the Falls Creek area. With three bedrooms, stunning views of Turtle Lake and the surrounding mountains, and easy access to hiking and town, this home offers a peaceful retreat with the comforts and amenities you'll appreciate after a day of exploring Southwest Colorado. The spacious setting is well suited to three couples, one or two families, or guests looking for a relaxing mountain escape.

    Located in a somewhat secluded setting with several neighboring homes nearby, the property puts you close to some of the area's best outdoor adventures. The Colorado Trail trailhead is about one mile away, making it easy to head out for a morning hike or a full day on the trail. Purgatory Resort is approximately 29 miles away, offering downhill skiing and snowboarding in winter as well as hiking and other mountain activities during the warmer months. In the fall, enjoy the colorful foliage throughout the surrounding mountains, while spring brings wildflowers to the area.

    When you're ready to explore Durango, you'll find plenty to discover just a short drive away. Visit the Animas Museum, take a ride on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, catch a show at the historic Henry Strater Theatre, or spend an afternoon exploring the town's restaurants and shops.

    Inside, vaulted wood-plank ceilings, log walls, and a wood-burning slate-rock fireplace create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Gather in the comfortable living area for a movie on cable TV, or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Large windows bring the mountain setting indoors, while the spacious deck provides an ideal place to take in views of Turtle Lake and the surrounding ridges and foothills.

    The full kitchen features stainless steel appliances and everything you need to prepare meals at home. When you're in the mood for an outdoor dinner, fire up the gas grill and enjoy a barbecue on the deck while taking in the scenery. Free WiFi makes it easy to look up recipes, stay connected, or plan your next adventure, and a private stacked washer and dryer add convenience throughout your stay.

    With three bedrooms and a comfortable mountain setting close to both Durango and the area's outdoor recreation, this Falls Creek retreat offers a relaxing place to gather, recharge, and experience the best of Southwest Colorado.
