Secluded Cabin on 132 Acres, 2 Miles to Purgatory Ski Area, Dogs Welcome

Our 1200 Sq ft, 3 bedroom, 3 bath, custom home was completely remodeled in 2013 and offers the most privacy and seclusion of any property near Purgatory as it sits on 132 acres, yet is less then 2 miles from the ski resort and 25 miles from downtown Durango. VRBO Listing 716605 is also on the property (1/4 mile away) and features 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and sleeps 6, if your group is bigger than our 3 bedroom alone can accommodate.

The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. The main living space features a 46 inch flat screen TV and wood burning fireplace (wood provided).

The master bedroom has a king size bed, the other two bedrooms both have queen beds.

The property borders the Weminuche national Forest on the North and East, which is the largest and most unused wilderness area in the continental U.S. Their are numerous lakes and ponds on the property, and a road to higher elevations where the views of the surrounding mountains and lakes are spectacular. It is common to see bear, deer, elk, big horn sheep, snow shoe hares, ducks, geese, turkey, coyote, marmot, and the occasional mountain lion or moose. All of the pictures in the listing were taken from the property.

A 4WD/AWD with good tires is required December through March. If you plan to drive a vehicle not so equipped, please book elsewhere. Although the roads are extremely well maintained, we want to ensure our neighbors are not adversely impacted by our guests who may not regularly drive on snow packed roads.

Lastly, we love dogs, and they are totally welcome as long as they are well behaved and get along with people and other dogs. Lucy runs free on the property.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a fireplace. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
This smoke-free vacation home features books, games, and a playground. Recreational activities include snowboarding nearby, ecotours nearby, and sledding nearby.

Close by Wedding
Used as a base camp for a family wedding, very convenient, easy to get to, only 1.8~2.0 miles from SH550. Close yet remote, no cars driving by. Everything you need is right where need them.

Perfect mountain getaway
The cabin was everything we wanted, seclusion, views, space for us and our dog to roam, and proximity to the amazing trails in the San Juans. We also met multiple neighbors who were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We will absolutely be staying at this property again in the future.

People and dog heaven
We chose this property because of its proximity to Silverton and many of the surrounding 4x4 trails. With 3 dogs in tow this made for a perfect home base. The property is large and well behaved dogs are free to roam.

Great secluded cabin
Perfect cabin for our family getaway. Close enough to Durango for dinners or the hot springs. But close to Silverton and Ouray for hikes and excursions. Love how secluded and private the location is. Simple and rustic enough to feel like you are in the woods and away from it but good wifi and able to check on the Olympics when we got back from hiking. Will definitely be back!

Amazing!
The property is nestled in a secluded location within in minutes of Purgatory. Easy access, great mountain hikes around the property and the view and quietness was absolutely what we all needed! House was clean, spacious and each room has its own bathroom which everyone loved! The owner was communicative and assisted us when I called with a minor inconvenience. You will love the gorgeous mountains and if you are looking for seclusion this is it!

Views Galore
This year, my partner and I traveled with three of our grandchildren. We needed at least two bathrooms and three bedrooms. This house hit the mark. Each bedroom had an attached full bathroom, which gave everyone room and time to prepare for the day out in the beautiful San Juan mountains. It was very quiet and had all the conveniences we needed for our lodging. The views of the mountains from our cabin's wrap around porch were breathtaking. I would highly recommend this home if you are a looking for beautiful views, mountain living and hiking areas at your fingertips. This cabin is the place for you!!

Perfect Spring Break
Less than 10 minutes to Purgatory Ski Resort, but away from the crowds in a winter wonderland! Gorgeous property with beautiful views. The cabin was perfect for our family of 3 adults and 3 teens. Every room has its own spacious bathroom (the rooms felt bigger than they look in the pictures!) Sean was very quick to answer any questions we had. Highly recommend and would love to come back in the summer!

New Years at the cabin
My family of 6 stayed at the cabin over the New Year week & had a wonderful time. The cabin is just as described with lots of pantry space & all the kitchen items needed to cook meals. The beds were comfortable. The en-suite baths for each bedroom was a major plus as was having a main floor bedroom. Sean was extremely helpful when we ran into a major car mechanical issue & his help was very much appreciated. 4wd or chains really are a must during the snowy months. The personal sled hill was a big hit with the kiddos (& the pup!) We’d gladly stay again.

Christmas at the Cabin
We decided to spend Christmas snowboarding at Purgatory and Seans cabin was the perfect place to stay. There were 5 of us and our Corgi staying in this beautiful cabin on Seans amazing property. The Cabin was clean, comfortable, warm, and accommodating. We loved the fireplace, the big windows displaying the gorgeous views, each room has its own full bathroom and the living area and kitchen was a perfect gathering spot. Sean gave us great directions to get to the location and kept us informed on the weather. We were close to Purgatory but the cabin was nice and secluded. We had the best Christmas and would do it again and again. Sean is a great host and made our stay easy and comfortable.

Beautiful, quiet, peaceful home in the mountains
We loved our stay. The home is absolutely beautiful and so spacious. It is stocked with everything you can possibly need. The front porch was perfect for grilling and playing board games. There is also a fire pit with a great views of the mountains. We loved having a bathroom for each room and large, spacious rooms with comfortable beds. The hosts were accommodating, left clear instructions, and were there if we needed them. The house itself is tucked away, offering some privacy and peacefulness. Yet still close to hikes, local towns of silverton and Durango, and other things to do.
