Summary: ### 5-Star Retreat: Secluded Haven Near DurangoWe just returned from a magical week at this stunning rental on 5 acres outside Durango, Colorado. The privacy is unmatched—rolling meadows, and tall pines. The pond out back was our daily escape, perfect for quiet mornings or spotting wildlife like deer.The house is cozy and inviting, with huge windows showcasing epic San Juan Mountain views. The kitchen has everything for easy meals, and the bedrooms are comfortable havens, especially the master with huge windows overlooking the property and pond.The Jacuzzi stole the show—after exploring nearby trails or Mesa Verde, we'd unwind in its bubbling warmth under starry skies. It's ideally placed for total seclusion.The host had very good communication, making everything seamless from booking to checkout.This spot is a true reset; time slows down here. We're already planning our next visit for fall foliage. 10/10—book it!
