Imagine a picturesque mountain retreat where you can gather comfortably with family and friends. This spacious log cabin combines rustic charm with thoughtful amenities, all set against stunning mountain views. The main level features a cozy master suite with a king bed, private en-suite bathroom complete with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual vanity. The master also offers direct access to the balcony deck—perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening sunsets. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms—one with two twin-over-full bunk beds and another with two twin trundles. These rooms share a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom featuring a tub-only setup. Both upstairs bedrooms include their own access to the upper balcony, allowing guests to step outside and take in the fresh mountain air. On the lower level, there is a fourth bedroom with a king bed, offering additional privacy and separation—ideal for couples or those wanting a quieter space. The cabin comfortably accommodates larger groups with two queen sofa sleepers—one in each of the spacious living areas. The main living room is a true highlight, featuring two stories of floor-to-ceiling windows that frame panoramic mountain views and fill the space with natural light. Step outside to enjoy the expansive deck, offering plenty of outdoor seating and incredible views in every direction. Fire up the gas grill or flat top for a meal with a view, or relax in the large hot tub, which provides ample seating and the perfect place to unwind under the stars after a day of adventure. Conveniently located near a local store, gas station, and restaurants, the home offers easy access to essentials. Purgatory Resort is just 3 miles south for year-round activities, and historic downtown Durango is only a 20-minute drive away. Whether you're here for outdoor adventure or a peaceful mountain escape, this cabin offers the perfect balance of comfort, space, and scenery.

    Our family had an amazing stay at Elk Mountain Lodge! The location, just outside Durango, is ideal—offering stunning mountain views and easy access to all kinds of summer activities. The lodge was cozy, clean, and well-maintained. We loved being so close to outdoor adventures like hiking, biking, and rafting, while still just a short drive from downtown Durango. Whether you’re looking to relax or explore, this place is the perfect retreat.Highly recommend for families seeking both adventure and relaxation!

    Due to the heavy snowstorm, there were issues with us being able to check in on time. However, the property manager was extremely communicative and worked with us to make sure we had a great vacation! The location is perfect, right next to Purgatory Ski Resort. We would stay here again.

    Gorgeous property with all the amenities we could’ve asked for. This home was perfect for our family vacation. There was plenty of space for everyone, the kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans, small appliances, etc. and the views were breath taking. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. I would love to stay here again if we find ourselves back in the area.
