Unplugged dog-friendly getaway with tree-lined views

Give yourself and your loved ones a break from the hustle and bustle, while you revel in the peace that surrounds this dog-friendly Durango retreat. Located 16 miles from Durango, this scenic cabin allows you to leave your busy life behind for a while and enjoy the privacy of nature. During the winter, we recommend using a 4x4 vehicle to get here safely. Wood accents and vaulted ceilings create a wide open main living area - the perfect spot to get together. Catch up with your favorite book as the wood stove warms the room, or choose a vinyl from the collection to play on the stereo-style turntable. With no WiFi or TV, you’ll be able to connect with your guests and make some alpine memories. The private washer/dryer will keep the dirty clothes at bay while you take Fido out on the deck to bask in the views. Spend the afternoon sipping a local brew as the sun dips past the trees. Make dinner in the fully equipped kitchen while your guests kick back at the breakfast bar. Put the stainless steel appliances to work, and then dine on the deck while the dishwasher takes care of the cleanup. This one-room (plus loft) one-bathroom home can sleep up to four guests and one small dog (please note a 60-pound weight limit). The bedroom on the main level features a queen-size bed, while the upstairs loft also has a soft queen-size bed for your guests. The small building is set among the trees and offer the perfect spot to enjoy the serenity of the forest. Pack a snack and explore the trails that weave through the San Juan National Forest. Fly fish or kayak along the Animas River. Enjoy a seasonal brew or two and a night out at the Steamworks Brewery in Durango, and take to the slopes at Purgatory Resort.
