Owls Nest is a private loft studio that looks out at the stunning views of La Plata Mountains and the sweeping farm land of Florida Mesa. It is 15 minutes drive from Downtown Durango. We have appointed it with every luxury of a boutique hotel. Adorable kitchen & full bath. Kids and pets welcome! There is a downstairs office/ foyer and an outdoor covered patio looking at the orchard. The space is private. You can see more at CasaDurango.com or send me a message with your questions. Holly

Dear Guests,

With stunning views of the La Plata Mountains and the sweeping farmland, Owl`s Nest is so sheltered and cozy on the inside. This is a romantic jewel box of comfort with all the amenities of a boutique hotel. We love having a diversity of people come stay from all over the world.

Located in the irrigated farm and ranch land on Florida Mesa, this location is only 15 minutes drive from Downtown Durango. Guests are always blown away by the solitude and beauty of the place so close to town. You will often hear Barn Owls hooting at night or see them swooping though the moonlight on the hunt!

My husband and I have been renting vacation homes for 15 years now and this is our latest addition. We have really tried hard to make this one just a cut above and focused the remodel to get a unique and quality feeling. You can see all our places at CasaDurango.com. Look at our reviews and see, we have lots of happy guests!

Children and pets are more than welcome here. The orchards are so fun to just relax in for a picnic or outdoor nap, and you can go for a walk around the surrounding hay fields. We have cows, horses, chickens and one good farm dog. They are all overly friendly!

The covered porch is complete with BBQ and furnishings for outdoor dinning or relaxed morning coffee. The porch, entryway and entire indoor space is Private and not shared. The entrance is a foyer with an office area and coat closet and then you go up the stairs to the main living area.

The front sidewalk, covered porch, entryway, foyer, and entire indoor space is all private and not shared with anyone. The Owls Nest is the upstairs apartment built over the main house. It is mainly built directly over the garage and therefore it is quiet and private to the downstairs residence. The downstairs house is occupied by a nice family and I, the owner, live on the property next door.

A super comfortable king sized bed made of reclaimed telephone poles has a built in bookcase around the bottom with a small library. A reading nook for enjoying the quiet with a book. There is a twin bed also with a Tempurepedic Mattress that kids will love, tucked into one of the window alcoves.

The kitchen is both adorable with open shelving and built in bar seating.Very usable with lots of great cookware to make a chef happy!

Let me know if you have any questions about Owl’s Nest
Yours,
Holly

You can park on the south side of the oversized garage which leads directly onto the covered patio. Guests are more than welcome to take walks in our hay field and the orchard.

We are available for anything you might need.

Owls Nest is located south of Durango. It is only 10 minutes to the hospital and 10 minutes from the air port! 15 minutes from Downtown Durango.

If you do not have a car, we will rent you ours! It is Electric and runs off our huge Solar Power System. We have been known to pick guests up at the air port. There is also Uber in Durango.

Dogs are welcome. We do have a $50 pet fee. I provide a large sized dog crate and a white noise machine if you want to use those for your dog. You may only leave your dog unattended only if you know it will not bark and disturb the neighbors in Casa Luna below.
- We have quiet hours starting at 8pm so as not to bother the folks downstairs in the main house.
- Quiet Hours: 8pm - 8am

    I loved the peaceful mornings here. Apartment has everything you need to cook, clean, and rest well. Location is an easy twenty minutes to Durango and a nice head start on all the amazing things to see and do south of town towards New Mexico. Will definitely be back!

    our stay was great. We fed horses apples and carrots, went skiing, visited the fish hatchery, rode the train, and enjoyed some quiet time reading outside. The house was clean, comfortable, and close to everything. We had a private entrance, comfy bed, and a stocked kitchen to make breakfast. Easily one of the best getaways we've had.

    As a group of adults (all family) between the ages of 56 - 84, we looked ALL over the Durango area for a house that would give us both the togetherness and privacy that all of us were looking for. And, adding Owl's Next to the Casa Luna reservation made for a perfect combination. Owl's Nest is a super cute efficiency apartment that, along with the king and twin bed, gave two of us the sleeping arrangements we needed, a private space to get ready in the mornings, and a quiet space to fall asleep at night. The entire space was super clean, updated, and had absolutely everything we needed. With a total of seven adults staying between Casa Luna and Owl's Nest, we had an extra space to do laundry, make coffee, and shower. We had the opportunity to meet both Ben and Holly. Ben was super helpful when we needed to borrow a few tools to replace the license plate holder on our van. And, Holly was super friendly and seemed to really enjoy having short-term renters on her ranch! I wouldn't be surprised if my parents. who fell in love with the ranch, make it back to Colorado, and rent Casa Luna and/or Owl's Nest, again. They LOVED having their coffee on the back patio every morning, listening to the donkey and cattle, watching the phoebe chase flies, and seeing the ranch come to life.

    The property was exactly as described and we were very happy with our stay. We would most definitely stay there again in the future. We thought a high chair would be available but it wasn’t. Holly offered to go to Walmart and get us one and we said no, it was okay. We came back from an evening out and a high chair was waiting on the porch for us! We were so grateful and so impressed with the nice gesture. Our 9 mo old was happy to have somewhere safe to eat her snacks!!! Highly recommend staying here! Can’t wait to come back!

    Holly & Ben are amazing hosts and this house is a true gem. It's a pleasant 15 minute drive from the hustle & bustle of historic Durango and the Durango & Silverton Railroad depot. The unit is very clean, quiet, thoughtfully appointed, and significantly more comfortable than a hotel room. It's very obvious that Holly & Ben had invested a lot of thought and care into every detail. We had a fantastic time in Durango and can't wait to return. When we do, it'll be Owl's Nest for sure!

    We enjoyed our stay in the Owl's Nest. It was clean and cozy. Nicely outfitted kitchen. Washer and dryer. Great place for 2 or 3 people. Would not recommend adding a 4th as there is no additional bedding provided. It is an apartment over a garage, so it does get a little hot in the summer afternoons.

    This is a well-furnished garage apartment space that was perfect for a couple with a baby. It has a king bed with a full kitchen, washer/dryer, bathroom, and another single bed near the kitchen space. It is located on a farm which had great views of the mountains around Durango. Would definitely stay here again!

    This rental is one of the nicest and well-appointed ones my wife and I have ever stayed. Immaculately clean, spacious for a studio, super comfy bed and pillows, washer/dryer, very kind hosts, quiet bucolic setting, and great location close to Durango. Highly recommend!!!
