Tucked into the trees in the beautiful Vallecito Lake Valley, Nana’s Cabin offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and classic rustic cabin charm. Ideal for families or small groups looking to enjoy everything the Durango and Bayfield area has to offer. Bring your dog, too!

Whether you're here for a summer lake escape or a colorful fall getaway, Nana’s Cabin offers a peaceful home base to create lasting memories in the Colorado mountains.

What a special place!

I loved the cabin! It had a warm cozy feel to it. It was great to watch the wildlife come around, the off beaten road location was relaxing. We hiked, fished, sight saw, and then ran out of days ... going back soon!

Nana's Cabin

Nana's cabin was clean and well stocked. My husband and I felt like we were visiting our grand parents. Cozy home. The mattresses could use an upgrade, but other than that everything was great.

Mountain Break

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this well loved family home. The well stocked kitchen complete with condiments, sugar, and a first aid kit was much appreciated. There were plenty of beds for the children, and space for the adults too. The region was just lovely and the kids were able to play safely outside and go for walks in the neighborhood, and enjoyed the videos and toys in the house, too. We went for a hile on the beautiful Pine River Trail just 15 mins from the house, and enjoyed the scenic Silverton-Durango railway. A beautiful and comfortable spot. Thank you for your hospitality! Linda and Family

Peaceful setting with EVERYTHING you need!

Nana's house was a definite WIN with this group of 8 senior adults. Since I was the one who found it and booked it, it was very important to me that my friends all liked it. It was a peaceful and beautiful setting in a wooded area that was so quiet you could hear the birds chirping all day. The home had plenty of room for all of us, great amenities such as a fully stocked kitchen, large fluffy white towels that were in abundance, toiletry items that were such a sweet addition, mostly very comfy beds and so much more! Our one and only disappointment was that the whole deck, patio tables and chairs were so dirty when we arrived that we had to spend 30 minutes getting that all cleaned up before we could use it. (Bird droppings, tree droppings and lots of dirt on chairs and tables.) Minor compared to the big picture but I would recommend that the caretakers do that for guests. Communication was super easy and friendly, value for the home was really great and a good time was had by all!!
