Great mountain getaway
Accurate information about the property, comfortable accommodations, great location. Great for traveling with dogs. No issues with the cabin and provisions. Property management outstanding with helping us out, going above and beyond when needed. No window shades or covers but secluded enough to not be a big concern. Hope we’ll have the opportunity to stay here again.

Snow Days
The cabin felt secluded and remote even though it was within a short distance to Durango and Silverton. WiFi was excellent, allowing me to do some quick work. We loved the big open windows to watch the snowstorm during our stay. Our only problem was finding the road where the cabin was located. This may be easier with less snow. I recommend staying here.

Purgatory
Cabin was clean. It was one big room. Living quarters and bathroom downstairs. The bedroom was a loft with several beds in it. If we were not by ourselves, hopefully we would be with REALLY good friends, because of one sleeping area. There was no porch to sit on and enjoy the outdoors. Only a tent with two plastic chairs

Good property. Fees are too high. Needs a deck. Maybe plant some flowers. Did I mention fees are too high too bad it’s a one bath place.

Quiet Secluded Cabin
The cabin was nestled in on the ridge of a mountain up in Purgatory! We saw lots of wildlife and the weather was perfect, lows in 50s and highs in upper 60s. The cabin was very cozy and had everything!! We would definitely stay there again!!!

Beautiful property in a beautiful location
This home was perfect for us (two adults) and our two dogs. The kitchen is well stocked and we cooked each night of our stay. The furnishings are basic and comfortable. The WiFi works surprisingly well given the remote location. And there are plenty of trails around for hiking. This place is even better than it looks in the pictures. We highly recommend it.

Weekend get away
This was a lovely get away cabin in the woods. Very close to the lake so bring mosquito spray!! Very well stocked kitchen and gorgeous views. The stars at night were spectacular. You’ll get your steps in since master bedroom is upstairs and only bathroom is downstairs. Great location! An enjoyable stay!

Review of Deer Ridge
We really enjoyed the delightful cabin. It is well-stocked and equipped, and quite comfortable. The decorations, amenities, and furnishings are great. We had surprisingly good internet service, and the Dish TV worked great. We were unable to get the heater in the wall to come on, but it was not really needed. Also, one of the track lights in the living area would not come on, or we could not find the switch. I was waiting for a return call about that from the property manager but never got the call. The main concern was the lack of window covering or blinds over the giant picture window facing the road. There was no privacy, and we did see a man walking down the road at night in front of the cabin. Also, it is difficult to cool the cabin down in the middle of the day with no covering from the sun on the window. But we definitely enjoyed our time here in a beautiful part of the planet!

Little Cabin in the Woods
My family (husband, two teenage boys, my sister, my dad and three dogs) all stayed in this cabin for three nights. It was comfortable and cozy. The kitchen was well stocked with all you need to cook and prepare food. We love Silverton and this was close by. We really liked the privacy. We’ve stayed in condos at ski resort, but this house was so cool because of the privacy and the ability to drive right up to it. We couldn’t fish in the lake because I couldn’t see a place to fish from the shore. The lake is catch and release with no barbed hooks. We really did enjoy our short little trip here.
