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.
