Large Family Retreat with Hot Tub, Privacy, and Incredible Views!

Live large in our spectacular 4-bedroom 4 4-bath Vista Meadows Family Retreat with a private hot tub! Situated on 20 acres of private property high above the Florida Valley this home gives you long mountain views with open meadows where you are likely to see grazing herds of elk and deer. It is conveniently located within a 15-minute drive to downtown Durango, a 40-minute drive to Purgatory Ski Resort, and just minutes to Vallecito and Lemon Reservoir.

Once inside you'll be pleasantly surprised. The gourmet kitchen is ideal for cooking big family meals with plenty of counter space, an oversized island, and a 48” professional grade 7 burner double-oven range. It opens to the dining area and wood-burning fireplace. The main-floor master suite includes a king-sized bed, TV, a five-piece bathroom with a heated jetted tub, and 6' x 4' double-head shower, and a double vanity. The lower level has a wonderful "kids' bedroom" with 3 full beds and 1 twin with ensuite 3/4 bathroom, and TV. The French doors from this room open to a patio with a built-in hot tub and beautiful views. Upstairs, glass doors in the living room lead to a 19' x 10' Trex deck with breathtaking views. The vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling, stone-faced wood-burning fireplace, and granite wet bar make a cozy atmosphere perfect for gathering. The 3rd bedroom is located on this level complete with a Queen bed, TV, and Jack and Jill bathroom. Continue up to the top floor to find the 4th private bedroom with a Queen bed, TV, ensuite bathroom, and blow-up air mattress. Whatever your ideal vacation, we promise that you will be relaxing in no time in our special piece of paradise.

Remote location with amazing views and only minutes from town
House is located on a large private property that proves privacy yet is located not too far from town. The accommodations are very nice and the views are absolutely amazing. Someone previously commented on not being able to operate HVAC but there is a house guide book that I clearly illustrates how to operate. In visited in early October just in time to see a large flock of wild turkeys each morning. Look forward to next trip.

Outstanding!
Despite this crew struggling to figure out how to work the air conditioning and the showers (they were kind to walk us through it!) we finally figured out and by day 2 we had a cool house and could work everything! The house was just outstanding and we loved the location! A quick trip to town if needed and a beautiful view!
