Log cabin at Vallectio lake with wrap around porch!

Bearadise is a beautiful log cabin, cozy enough for 2 or comfortable enough for 10! Surrounded by trees, Bearadise is as restful and relaxing as its name suggests. Relax inside and find there’s plenty of adventure just beyond the cabin’s doorstep. The Weminuche Mountains and downtown Durango are among the attractions just minutes away.

Kick back on the wrap around porch, listen to birds singing as the crisp mountain breeze whistles through the trees, and then you will understand how this log cabin got its name. It is impossible to feel anything but paradise when you’re sitting out here.

Bearadise's interior offers more laid-back comforts. Stretch out on the generously cushioned sofa or gather together with the gang to watch a movie on the flat screen HDTV. In summer, ceiling fans will cool you off after a long hike in the mountains, while in winter you’ll love sitting by the pellet fireplace when you return from a day on the slopes. Bearadise's dining table seats 8 and the kitchen is equipped with all the appliances, cookware, gadgets, and tableware you could possibly need. There’s also a pellet bbq grill on the porch.

Thanks to the kitchen’s dishwasher, cleanup will be a snap. But if you don’t want to even bother with loading the dishwasher, why not head downstairs for a game of darts, with the loser having to pull KP duty?

The master suite on the upper floor is so inviting, you may find yourself making excuses to turn in early. That queen-size bed is beyond sumptuous!

On the main floor behind the kitchen and living areas you will find 2 bedrooms. One with a luxurious king size bed and the other room with a queen. The main bathroom with a large updated shower is located between the two rooms.

In the basement you will find all the fun! There is a large sectional couch, TV, Darts and room for all the kids to escape and play! You will find a queen and 2 twin beds in this area.

There’s plenty more to do just minutes away. As well as restaurants, just minutes away near the boat dock. When you stay at Bearadise you can rest assured that you’re going to enjoy one of your best getaways yet. So book your reservation, and start counting down the days!

Perfect House for Family Gathering
Perfect house for our families with little ones! Beautiful, clean, perfect location. We were seriously impressed and not expecting all the little things the owners thought about. Everything from baby gates, coffee, folding chairs for the lake, and a year pass for parking. We will certainly be staying here again in the future and more than likely every year!

peaceful location
This is a wonderful rental. The home was clean and the setting was gorgeous. We saw all kinds of deer and birds right from the near wrap around porch view. I found the home to be surprisingly well stocked, we had everything we could need from basic things likes towels and cleaning products to things I did not expect: games, spices in the pantry, trash bags, pellets for the grill and extra blankets and pillows. We did not feel uncomfortable at any point staying here. My only complaint and its not so much a complaint as a personal thing I didn't care for and that's the taxidermy. I did know there was taxidermy, i could see them in the photos when we booked the property, but it's not quite the same in the pictures as viewing so many dead animals in person. Especially the bear in the bedroom right off the kitchen. That one was a little too realistic looking and I didn't enjoy waking up to see a dead bear staring at me, LOL. So, I would just recommend making sure you are 100% okay with seeing taxidermy in every room of the cabin. Regardless, this is a wonderful place to stay and it does deserve 5 stars.

Perfect family vacation spot for all ages
We loved everything about our week in Bearadise! This house exceeded our expectations. It was very clean, beautifully decorated, and included every amenity we could possibly need for our two families with children ranging from 1-15. We appreciated the stocked spices and tools in the kitchen, throw blankets for snuggling with littles on the couch, built in retractable baby gates, and the awesome pellet grill. Perfect location in a quiet neighborhood just a short drive to the dam. We enjoyed seeing the deer come out to graze in the evening. Hosts were wonderful and very accommodating via text. We are already planning our next trip.

College Student Drop Off
Me and my family took a couple days to enjoy the area while we brought my daughter back to school at Ft. Lewis. This is our second year doing this and it is a nice treat before we drop her off for school. I loved this place it had everything we needed and more. It was so comfortable and welcoming all at the same time. I enjoyed drinking my coffee on the porch in the morning. It was quiet and the scenery was amazing!

We loved this slice of Heaven.
Better than advertised and it looked great on VRBO. We couldn’t have asked for better hosts, from the “things” to do in the area, to the fishing suggestions. The cabin was spacious and well stocked. Fresh flowers in the kitchen and bath were a nice touch. Felt like home from the minute we walked in. Quiet, comfortable and everything we needed and more for the week. I would highly recommend this listing and especially for a larger group, as there were areas of the house untouched with just the two of us. . The wrap around porch for coffee in the morning and relaxation at night was a huge benefit. The drive between the cabin and Durango was about 18 miles, but it was perfect for the solitude and the drive whipped by with the absolute beauty and wildlife. I cannot say enough, from the hospitality of the hosts, the amenities of their home and to the beauty of Durango and surrounding areas. This home away from home was exactly what we needed to make this a memorable vacation. Thank you!

Cute Cabin
The cabin is really cute. We had the kids sleep downstairs and adults upstairs. The kitchen had everything we needed as well as an outdoor grill. The beds were comfortable. The location was good, an easy hour drive to Purgatory Ski Resort and 30 minutes from Durango. We would definitely stay there again.
