Durango, Colorado
Sun Mesa House is located on Florida Mesa just 9 miles south of Downtown Durango Colorado. With 360-degree view of southwest Colorado it is no less than spectacular. The House is surrounded by irrigated farmland. You look across the hay fields to see the La Plata Mountains, Needles Peaks, and even down into New Mexico. It is just amazing views, amazing sunsets, it feels like real old west painting.
Sun Mesa House is about 15 Min. drive from Downtown Durango, 10 Min. from the Air Port and BP Head offices, 10 Min. from Mercy Medical Hospital, 30 Min. from Aztec NM , 45 Min. from Farmington, and 30 Min. from Ignacio and the Sky Ute Casino.
The house occupies the upstairs of a duplex. It has it’s own private parking, entrance, and fenced back yard with double decks. On Sun Mesa Farm we have horses, a donkey, chickens, cats and large friendly dog, all of which are fenced out of your private back yard!
Dine on the back deck that looks directly across the fields to the La Plata Mountains. Out here in the country we have very dark skies providing a rare night vision; it's ablaze with stars.
Sun Mesa House is very comfortable. The large master bedroom suite has a King-sized Tempurpedic bed dressed with fine linens. The walk in closet is equipped with a front-loading washer and dryer that makes laundry easy.
It's master bathroom features a large Jacuzzi tub, jetted for great bubble baths. Equipped with a separate shower the bathroom feels luxurious with lots of space, towels, and robes. The second bathroom is a half bath at the top of the stairs adjacent to the living room.
This house features a kitchen that would delight any cook. Large and U shaped, it opens to the living room, creating an ideal space for entertaining. Plentiful counter space, high-end appliances, and a gas range all create a easy and open space to cook. Plenty of dishes, pans, and even nice chefs knives are provided. You can count on nice pots and pans, good knives, coffee pot, microwave, toaster, crock-pot and blender to make meals effortless. If you enjoy cooking, you will love this kitchen!
The comfortable living room has a sleeper couch that makes into a queen sized bed. There is also a large high definition flat screen TV, making movie night a special event.
Feel welcomed by the entryway that features a coat closet and a place to put your shoes. Follow the stairs up into a home of lofted ceilings.
We had a ton of fun decorating this house with a modern southwest, cowboy feel. It is sunny and bright and set out in beautiful country. I think you will just love it!
Just a note about the name: Sun Mesa. In Durango and the North Valley you in a valley and the sun goes down early. Up here on Florida Mesa we get a couple more hours of sunshine per day. This is wonderful in the winter. The house has south facing windows that let the sunshine in.
There is a Solar PV Array that covers all of the electrical needs of Sun Mesa House.

Very homey, clean, views spectacular. Owners easy to work with.
This was a great getaway! We went for the week and it was wonderful! Holly and Ben were great hosts and very helpful. My daughter loved the horses and donkeys! Breathtaking views and only a short drive into Durango
I had an excellent three-night stay at the Sun Mesa House. The location is peaceful, but only a short drive to Durango. Holly was very responsive and was overall a great host!
We were very lucky to book this place. It was very clean & comfortable. The owners were friendly & helpful in suggesting places for us to go. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Good consideration if your traveling in this area.
So this is the upper half of a duplex, a very nice lady lives below with a cocker spaniel who befriended my little doggies. There are only a few stairs to climb, I think 6, which was much better as I had imagined an entire flight of stairs...I might suggest to include that in the pics as it might encourage people who would otherwise be put off by a bunch of stairs. The actual apartment is well appointed with a great kitchen for cooking, a grill, shared backyard with a nice deck, a ridiculously huge bedroom/bathroom combo, and a half bath if you need it. My husband and I met Holly when we checked in and her husband a few days later, they are both super nice and pretty laid back folks who have a really neat farm to check out. There are cows, a mule, a donkey, horses, and a super friendly Pyrenees! The location is great--about 15 minutes into town, so convenient to that, while also allowing you to feel as if you've truly gotten away from the hustle and bustle (Durango isn't really hustle and bustle anyway if you're from even a medium sized city, but still). Durango and the surrounding area is great to explore, so much history and so many great hiking trails!
The apartment was clean and comfortable. It was a cozy home away from home and gave us the space to relax.
Holly and Ben were wonderful hosts! The house had everything we could ask for including fresh eggs from the chickens, The bed was so comfortable! When we weren’t out hiking or in town we spent our time on the deck admiring the breathtaking views of the pastures , animals and mountains. It’s amazing to enjoy such beautiful landscape and yet be so close to town. We look forward to staying again! Ed and Lorri Tucson, Arizona
We loved seeing and hearing (donkey) all the farm animals. The rental was very nice with the Mountain View’s promised. It was clean and comfortable. We had a great time.
Our stay atop the Florida Mesa was about as peaceful as it comes. While there is a neighbor downstairs and the owner family lives next door, we were never once bothered. We did get the opportunity to meet the owners who were out working on the farm and they were absolutely pleasant, offering local knowledge regarding hiking. The home is indeed about 15 minutes all said and done outside the center of downtown Durango, and it is a very simple drive in and out. The house is cozy but plentiful for a couple and certainly doable for more with the pull-out couch. It is a lived-in space but has been kept clean and there were no issues during our stay. We would highly recommend this spot as convenient to Durango and providing a truly peaceful getaway.
We had a lovely time in durango. Our kids enjoyed playing on the farm and visiting the animals. Holly was super helpful and was delightful to talk too! The place was nice, the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The only thing that didn’t work was the jetted tub. Seemed to have a leak and wouldn’t hold water. The king bed was really comfy and it helped having a window air conditioning since it can get pretty warm in the house. It was a nice stay and if you are looking for a stay on a farm with some animals with some beautiful views then this is the place for you.
