  a guest from Ventura, CA recommends this vacation rental

  The home has been recently updated and worked out perfectly for our family of six adults and three children. Great location and the property around the house was beautiful. Very private with no neighbors close by. Beds were comfortable and living area was a nice size open to the kitchen. Check in and out went smoothly and we would consider this house again when visiting Durango.

  Sharon O from Albuquerque, NM recommends this vacation rental

  The Hesperus house was perfect our families vacation. Every room was unique, spacious with large comfortable beds. The family room, kitchen open concept allowed everyone to enjoy one another company. The house is a short 18 minute drive to Durango. My only recommendation is that the rental agency purchase new hair dryer, the only one all three bathrooms kept over heating. Individuals with one thick hair would never be able to get their hair dried.

  • Manager Responded on 12/22/2023

    Sharon, thank you so much for staying with Vacation Rental Collective. We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and are so glad that you found the home to be spacious, with large comfortable beds, and an open floor concept that everyone could enjoy! Thank you for the feedback about the hair dryer, we have since replaced the hair dryer with one capable of handling thicker hair, thank you for bringing that to our attention. We look forward to hosting you again in the future. :)

  the house was as advertised, the pictures were 100% accurate, the house is well stocked with a complete kitchen set up, plenty of towels, etc. The wood burning stove was lovely and the grounds were well kept. The host checked on us and was easy to work with. Our stay was relaxing and trouble free.

  Dawn A recommends this vacation rental

  Highly recommend this place! We spent a week at this cozy, quiet and very spacious property. Closer to Durango then what we had anticipated it was a short 12- 15 minute drive. Very comfortable beds, large closets and newly renovated bathrooms! Great for family's with kids as there is a nice big kitchen and family room. We enjoyed evenings on the back patio cooking out and playing horseshoe and cornhole. Well maintained property and great location, we will definitely be back.

  Sandra S from Topeka, KS recommends this vacation rental

  The location of this rental is off the beaten path which made for relaxing evenings after days in Durango. The house has upgraded furnishings which is very nice. We didn't lack for anything indoors.
  No air conditioning is needed and my family truly enjoyed the mountain air. Windows are hard to open though (some don't open at all such as in the master bedroom) but we made do with moving air in the evening.
  The location does need more outdoor seating areas that can accommodate 6 to 8 people but work outdoors did begin the morning we left. I myself will be anxious to see the improvements outdoors when we come back to the area.
  Overall...great location and home. We would stay again!
