Enjoyed our stay, house was easy to get to great location between Bayfield and Durango. Our family loved the game room!!
We loved the extremely spacious house, and the wonderful location out of town. The area is fantastically beautiful and we had nearly perfect weather all week long. I was surprised to arrive and find that this is the actual home of the host so their belongings are everywhere . First I found it stressful, but it's actually ends up working out nicely when you have children running around and lots of people in and out. We were a group of 14 so it was very relaxing to find the houselived in and not pristinely perfect . The owner was extremely helpful in clearing out anything we asked as we had one child with severe food allergies along. If you are wanting a high-end mansion, this house is not for you. If you like a relaxed and large family-friendly home this is an excellent place to stay.
The Mountain Manor was a perfect fit for our family of 7. We enjoyed the ample space inside and out! We were not aware it was a personal home however and that took a minute to adjust to upon our arrival. Also, it was hot in the bedrooms upstairs. There were fans upstairs but it still was hot upon our arrival and remained hot almost every night. Being Colorado, we understand air conditioning is not always needed. We just were not prepared for it being as warm as it was and the home a/c was not sufficient. Temps gradually cooled off by the end of our stay so that helped the sleeping. We would give this a 5 star rating if it wasn't for the not knowing it was a personal home and the heat. We definitely would book again - just in the cooler months of summer. We so appreciate the hosts and thank them for the use of their beautiful home!
We had clean beds and bathrooms, but the house needed a deep cleaning. The host was quick to address the problem later and did credit us the cleaning fee. With the heat wave this summer in the southwest, if you need air conditioning, this would not be the place for you. The children enjoyed the game room in the basement where it was cooler than the upper levels. The yard was not mowed, but the home is in a rural area, so I am assuming they leave it natural.
Positive - The house was large and a great size for our family of 12. The neighborhood was nice. Deer and wildlife everywhere. Biggest issue we had was the temperature on the top level - where 4 of the 5 rooms are. No AC. With 95+ days. The owner told me to open windows and put fans in the windows to circulate air. That did not help until about midnight.. there was spiders everywhere. In the house, on the deck- Needs a good spray. Cleanliness was average. Since they live here full time, there was stuff everywhere. Pantry smelled awful. Lots of owner food in the fridge. The garage was a disaster- tools lying around and crap generally everywhere. Probably would not stay here again. On vacation I want to get away from all the clutter. Could have been better described
Devin was quick to respond to all of our questions. We had to book late because our other place had to cancel. They were nothing but helpful and accommodating. Thank you!
The property was gorgeous, surrounded by woods in a quiet neighborhood. The house had lots of room to spread out with our two families and multiple teens. We loved the gameroom!
Our first Christmas vacation and it was awesome. The owners of the house were amazing and friendly. They responded quick to any questions we had during our trip. The house was lovely, fit all 15 of us! Thank you again! And will definitely be returning.
Very much enjoyed our stay. The house is very large with many fun things to do there. We loved the scavenger hunt. The hosts are so nice and accommodating. We will definitely be back next year.
We had a great stay.
Devin and Trista are amazing! We had a very large group, and when we had filled up the trash bins early in our stay, they came out and picked up the trash for us! Amazing people with an awesome house nestled in a picturesque part of God’s county. We will be back next year for sure!! ?
Very beautiful home and property. Would recommend this to anyone. Will definitely stay again when in the area.
Nice location, well equipped kitchen and bathrooms.
