Pefect locaiton for beginning Skiers
Stayed here in Feb 2024 with my Sister's family and my own. We had several young, beginner skiers and this location could not have been better. The bunny slopes were mere feet away. The cabin was spotless and offered more than enough beds and bathrooms for our needs. Would definitely stay again.

Great Summer Getaway!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Alpenglow 18 fit our family perfectly! It was comfortable, convenient, clean and well stocked. During the week, we had a few questions for the property manager and their response was immediate. We were in a perfect place to drive into Durango, as well as to take the beautiful drive to Ouray! We also took advantage of the amenities offered right there (the pool plus the summer activity package) and had a blast! Would recommend a stay in Alpenglow 18!

Skiing vacation
The property was beautiful and as pictured. Wonderful views out the living room/dining room windows. It is truly ski-in/out. You see the Graduate lift from the master bedroom. To ski, you simply take a short (50 foot) walk across the parking lot, put your skis on and ski down to the Graduate lift. Since all tickets are purchased online and picked up at the ticket office or ski rental, it is good to know that there is a ticket office at the bottom of the hill. Each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. The loft was private but you had to use the bathroom in the bedroom or go downstairs to the half bath. Negatives were that the dining room table is rather small for a 4+ bedroom home, the gas stove and family room gas fireplace are rather temperamental, and the dishwasher (even when using the additive that was supplied and basically scrubbing the dishes before use) was ineffective. Even with these negatives I would rent there again. The staff was helpful and easy to access.

Great Location--but SOL when you have issues
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Rented a 4 bdrm home for ski/fly fishing vacation. 1st night fixing dinner, we have 2 of 4 burners going and oven at 350 degrees baking chicken. The range malfunctions and shuts off. We were able to get the burners to light, but no oven to cook chicken, which everyone likes served medium-rare, right? The solution from Durango Collection-VRC was for us to walk our 350 degree glass corningware dishes across snow and ice to an empty unit 8 sections away. No Thanks. I see how that ends up, with us on our backs covered in hot chicken, cream sauce, and glass. Then 2 nights later, every member of house was awakened to smoke detectors going off in unison due to a low battery, which continued for almost an hour until we were able to determine which battery was low. We did this by removing all the detectors off the ceiling until it stopped. No discount was offered and instead, they charged us a pet fee for a Seizure Response Medical Service Dog, which was discussed at the time of reservation with Durango Collection-VRC. I specifically asked for a manager to call me and 4 days later, NO phone call, NO discount. AND STILL NO REFUND FOR MY HUSBAND'S MEDICAL SERVICE DOG.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location and beautiful place! Fully stocked with things that helped us through our stay. Only complaint I had was the bottom floor thermostat not working. This is where our kids slept and it stayed extremely cold. Thermostats need to be fully functioning in extreme climates

Nice, well-stocked contemporary Condo
Alpenglow 18 is a very clean, upscale contemporary four bedroom unit. The kitchen is stocked with about anything a family would need with plenty of utensils, china, electronic appliances (some that I have never seen in other condos). The dishwasher however did not do a good job and we had to hand wash plates to get them clean. The bedrooms are clean and very comfortable. The fact that they are separated on three floors (master on three, second master on two, and two smaller ones on level one) is a plus for privacy and quiet. The two car garage on level one was convenient to the kitchen area upstairs on level two. This unit worked well for us since we were not skiing but playing golf in the four corners area. The unit is down the hill from the base ski area and the six person ski lift up the mountain at the base. All in all we were very pleased with the ambiance of the unit.

Great location and plenty of room for the kids. The gameroom upstairs was a major plus. Kids played upstairs and adults enjoyed the main living. We walk to all the amenities on the mountain - pool, roller coaster and slide! Great fun, would stay again!

Purgatory/Durango #18 Winter Solstice drive
Beautiful, spacious condo within a few hundred feet of Purgatory ski lift. The most completely furnished kitchen of any condo we have ever stayed in. Felt like we had walked into a cozy home that was occupied by a large family. Full size washer/dryer, two fireplaces, plenty of seating for meals. Very nice balcony with fire pit and large grill. Only problem we found was that the third floor bath spigot did not work. Bear visited patio so best to keep glass doors (not just the screen) closed on base floor.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: spacious and very handy to the lift, just a hundred feet out the garage to snow to ski down to lift that takes you to main chair. Living room furniture not particularly comfortable, but two large tubs made for good soaks after skiing. A bit of a problem with the fireplaces, but nothing major.

Great Thanksgiving
Property was fantastic well suited in location and well appointed in amenities we appreciated all four bedrooms had en suite bathrooms One suggestion I would make for guests in the future is ensure that you kick on the radiant floor heating in the downstairs immediately upon arrival because it does take some time to warm up (this is for cold season season climates only.)Location was perfect for an enjoyable holiday and some snowboarding for the family

Lots of pros a few cons!
This was a nice condo in a great location. The condo had plenty of room for our family of 4. The kitchen is well stocked with equiptment(blender, small appliances, etc). The pots and pans could use an upgrade, as well as the dishes and silverware. The master bedroom has a very comfy foam mattress and stayed nice and cool at night. The master bathroom shower has zero water pressure. So bad that we had to shower in a downstairs bathroom. The upstairs 3rd floor was very hot with tiny window and 100% bright light from 5am until dark. There needs to be better cooling and darkening shades on the 3rd floor. It does have a nice big bathroom and the minibar with fridge is a nice touch up on the third floor. The patio is nice with the outdoor table. It also could use a good cleaning and the grill was filthy. Had to completely clean it before we could use it. The location of the condo is GREAT! Easy walk up to the resort, near lots of hiking trails, and easy drive to Silverton and Ouray. Overall, we had a great week. Condo could be 5 stars with a little cleaning and attention!

Luxurious and Comfortable Spacious Townhome
This was a perfect townhome for our three families for nine nights. There was plenty of room with separate living areas on the three floors. The beds were all comfortable and furnishings were an indication of the quality within the townhome. We ate quite a few meals at the townhome and the kitchen was well equipped to prepare and serve meals for 11 people. The washer and dryer were very efficient and a pleasure to use. Keith (management) and Loren (Maintenance) were very responsive when we had occasion to contact them. We will definitely be referring others to this property and will visit again when we are in the area.
