A great home to use as a base camp to explore Durango. The home had everything we needed, it was right in town, and the owners were very helpful and friendly. We were so happy to have stayed there.

Lovely stay at the Wild Horse house with family and our dog! Beds were top notch in comfort, the space was cozy and comfortable. We loved the furnishings and enjoyed spending time on the front patio with all of the privacy of the shrub & tree border. It was a quiet and peaceful space with lots of privacy. We would definitely stay there again! Holly was responsive, pleasant and patient with our questions.

Convenient downtown stay

The wild Horse was very convenient to downtown activities. My dog loved the large private backyard. It was clean and the kitchen was setup for cooking pretty much whatever you want. Comfy beds and living area. We’ll stay again.

Great location

My family and dog stayed for four nights at Wild Horse house. It was quaint and clean and in a great location. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we would need. I was able to walk downtown, to the river and to a playground with my kids very easily. Highly recommend!!

Nice house in Durango, Clean, Quite, and relaxing.

House is very nice, the remodel was well done and everything was very comfortable. The dogs loved the fenced in yard to explore and get some exercise in. Only issue was for us it was a little too far to walk to downtown, but not a big issue. In all I recommend this to anyone visiting Durango.

Tons of charm, so clean, lovely neighborhood

My partner, her aunt and I adored the wild horse house!! It was exceptionally clean, easy to find and check in, beautifully decorated, and so homey. We took walks in the neighborhood (cute and safe) and it was just a couple minutes drive to downtown. We could faintly hear the train every morning which was so whimsical and fun to hear. Overall an A+ place to stay in Durango. :)

Very comfortable home

The home had everything we needed and we were very comfortable during our stay. The beds were comfortable with very nice linens. The shower took some adjusting to as to how to work it. Our dog could easily open the barn door to the bathroom so we had to watch that😁. She loved the easy access to the side yard. The only thing I would suggest is putting blinds in the bedrooms instead of just the curtains, makes sleeping in a little easier while on vacation without the morning light streaming in and would also provide better privacy. Otherwise great home with easy access to the heart of Durango!!! Thank you!!

We love the Wild Horse!

We have stayed at the Wild Horse twice and it is perfect for our needs. The house is comfortable, nicely decorated and has everything in it that we could need meaning we can travel with less. The location is fantastic! It’s a short walk to downtown and has a trail a few feet from the driveway that leads to the Santa Rosa park and trail along the Animas. We spend a lot of time walking along the Animas, gawking at its beauty and we also walk downtown daily to enjoy the restaurants, shopping and ice cream! The biggest bonus for us is the fully fenced in yard! We travel with two large dogs and our boys have room to run and play. After a long drive, they are always excited to get back there and stretch their legs. The location is great, the house is lovely, the neighbors are friendly and Holly is the hostess with the mostest. If you are visiting Durango, the Wild Horse is the place to stay!

Quiet and close to trails

Really enjoyed our stay. Close to connection trial for Animas River Trail and Horse Gulch Trails. Nice layout, plenty of kitchen cooking and housewares, clean and safe. Not far from skiing and downtown eateries & shops. Sent wrong check in instructions but thankfully one of the owners answered promptly and sent correct entry. The only things I would suggest would be instructions to television. 3 remotes and we cld not figure out system. We weren’t really on vacation to watch but on a cold snowy night by fireplace, a movie would have been great. Also, maybe a blackout in Master bedroom window as neighbor’s outdoor flood light shines right in your face.

In town for a concert

I came to town with some family to perform in a concert at Fort Lewis Community Concert Hall. The house was perfect for our needs. We arrived early in the week to explore the town. The Durango-Silverton Train was worth the ticket price for us. Beautiful scenery, especially when you got out of town and began the mountain climb. We visited the Aztec ruins as our music was based on Indian heritage, Chaco Canyon would have been on the list, but the weather did not cooperate for that. Many orchestra members went to Mesa Verde which was nearby Durango as well. The Hot Springs north of Durango were a real treat. My husband did some skiing at Purgatory as well. The concert went very well and I recommend checking the Fort Lewis Concert schedule whenever you come. They have a full schedule and it's an excellent venue at a great price. The house was a great location for all of our activities! We walked along Main street, the path to the Animas River, the Horse Gulch Trail to the Powerline. We packed our days full and came back to the house where we could relax. The kitchen was stocked with every utensil and dish we needed. A grocery store was nearby so we cooked some meals. The internet was good, the fireplace nice, and everyone was comfortable. We did not use the fenced yard as we had dog sitters back home, but I would likely bring the dog next time. My car is an e-hybrid, so I was thrilled they provided an EV Charger. If we are ever in the area we'd love to stay again.

We loved our stay! Nice house, very clean, comfortable beds, good towels with no scented detergent smell (a big plus for me), huge grassy fenced back yard which our pup absolutely loved zooming around in, quiet walkable neighborhood close to downtown (we drove to dinner but could have easily walked), lively front porch and yard. We would definitely stay here again next trip to Durango!
