We really enjoyed our rental experience. The owner was lovely, accommodating in many ways and the home was in the perfect location! We will definitely visit this property again.
The house is very cute with a great backyard and super-easy walking distance to Main Ave and an in-town hiking trail. House is very clean, kitchen has lots of shelves, and the whole house very pleasant with nice amenities. Definitely our go-to place for future trips to Durango.
Served in Cameroun, West Africa with the Peace Corps a few decades ago. Returned to wait tables, drive buses and ultimately earned a degree in civil engineering. I moved to Durango in 2005 and worked as Professional Engineer for the county, having the opportunity to learn a lot about the area and work with great people. I chased Buddhism for a long while, having great adventures in the US and abroad, and ultimately found truth in the salvation offered by Jesus Christ. I have the opportunity to share the gospel with those in jails and recovery centers, and continually learn from the women I get to meet. Otherwise, I am learning to garden and enjoying for the first time a flock of chickens, who are so much fun! I love reading and learning and walking pretty much anywhere, even including all around cities on the rare occasions I find myself there.
I love that this duplex is right downtown where guests can park and walk everywhere. While many may drive out for adventures during the day, they can park at night and walk to Main Ave. Others choose to just leave the car completely and walk everywhere - such a great way to decompress and so relaxing. I love that while the home is so central, it also has a quiet, peaceful feel.
The backyard in the warmer months is an oasis - green and lush and spacious right in the heart of downtown. The Highland Sage layout is a little funky, but very functional, clean and fresh, well-equipped with essentials, and with lots of storage space for gear. For those with pups, the backyard can make all the difference in vacation, and anything that allows people to completely relax during their time away brings me joy.
Ideal location. Five-minute walk to the heart of downtown restaurants, shops and historic train. Fully enclosed, landscaped backyard. Dedicated work space (if not using twin bed for sleep space) overlooking yard. In addition to downtown, the Nature Trail and Sky Steps up to Fort Lewis College are just a few blocks away. Easy launch spot for everything in town and a peaceful place to which to return and relax.
