“A wonderful family trip” We absolutely loved our week in Durango and stay at The Pines. Linda was so helpful and accommodating and the spacious home was perfect for our family reunion. Loved having the famous Silverton train behind the place! As first time visitors to Durango we enjoyed very much having Linda's advice on what to do in the area. Hiking, ATV trip, float trip, horseback riding all in the most beautiful mountain setting imaginable. Evenings on the balcony enjoying the stars...what could be better! We will be back for another stay at The Pines!

“Amazing!!!” I agree with all the previous reviews & then some. My husband said it was the only place he would leave Arizona for. I have to agree with him. We felt welcomed & couldn't get enough of the surroundings, flowers, river, the peace & tranquility. Patty, the owner, is a gem. Planning on returning real soon. Thanks so much Patty.

“A more peaceful and affordable place around Durango would be har” We arrived at the house to find it very clean and exactly how I envisioned it. The room sits above a garage in the gorgeous animas River valley a couple miles north of Durango. As others have said, there is no kitchen sink, but that was in no way a problem. We just used the bathroom sink to clean any cups or spoons we used. There were plenty of dishes and silverware, as well as a fridge, toaster, microwave, and coffee maker. There was a queen bed, love seat, table and chairs, and a TV with DVD player. Free Wi fi also. After a full day of hiking and biking or walking around the busy city of Durango, we found it very peaceful to get back to our secluded hideaway. We slept with the windows open at night and could occasionally hear a dog or two barking, but it never lasted long. My wife heard an elk early one morning. Checking in and out was quick and convenient. We had so much fun that we might just have to come back for another stay next summer. The scenery around the area is picturesque and the food in town is phenomenal. I highly recommend the Cyprus Cafe. It was the best meal we ate the entire week and it just has a really cool atmosphere. Overall I would say that we were delighted by the whole experience. If you are looking fore a place close to town, but not too close, then this will fit the bill nicely.

“Great Vacation” I would like to take a few minutes to let you how much we enjoyed our stay in your home at Pine Acres in Durango Co. We truly enjoyed you home and the surrounding area. Every thing we needed in your home was at our fingertips. The décor was great and we couldn't have asked for a more reasonable rate. I would recommend you property highly. As a matter of fact I spoke with my son when we returned home and told him of your home and we are seriously thinking of returning next summer when his children are out of school. We enjoyed a ride on the Blues Train and the great music by "One Roof Blues". The following day my brother-in-law and l went on a float trip fishing on the San Juan River. We also visited Mesa Verde Nation Park, Awe inspiring. As we packed to leave we all commented on what a wonderful home you have. Thank you very much. George, Sharon, Bill, and Kathy.
