Your modern river escape awaits. This thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 3-bath retreat sleeps up to 8 and is located just steps from the tranquil, tree-lined Florida River. Here, mornings begin with the glow of soft sunlight reflecting off the water, and evenings wind down to the gentle rush of the river just outside. With a wide, open yard perfect for lawn games, lounging, or letting children explore, the property invites both relaxation and play in equal measure. Inside, the front living room sets the tone for comfort and connection with its warm fireplace, flat-screen TV for movie nights, and a stylish wet bar that makes entertaining effortless. Whether you're sharing stories after a day on the water or unwinding with a nightcap, this space is designed to bring people together. The fully stocked chef's kitchen is both functional and inviting, featuring a generous 6-burner range for cooking memorable meals, bar seating for casual breakfasts, and a dining table for six to gather around. The centerpiece of the main level is the expansive wall of glass patio doors that fully open, allowing the outdoors to flow seamlessly inside. Screen them for a soft summer breeze or to enjoy the scent of fresh pine and the calming soundtrack of the river. Outside, the spacious porch offers a setting made for slow mornings and relaxed evenings. Dine al fresco under the umbrella, sip your coffee as the world wakes up, or watch the sun set as you share dinner with family and friends. The primary suite is located on the sunken lower level, providing a peaceful retreat with a queen bed, walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and a luxurious soaking tub. Private access to the backyard allows you to step directly outdoors to greet the river each day. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms offer comfort and charm. One includes a queen bed, generous walk-in closet, and a private balcony overlooking the water. The second bedroom is a dream space for kids, featuring four built-in twin beds designed for cozy sleepovers and late-night laughter. The upstairs rooms share a bright, modern bathroom with a walk-in shower. A third full bath with shower is located on the main floor for added convenience. The home also includes a dedicated laundry room with washer and dryer, plus a large walk-in pantry ideal for longer stays or fully stocked family vacations. Whether you're opening the patio doors to let the river breeze sweep through, sipping wine under the glow of string lights on the porch, or curling up by the fireplace after a day of exploring, this home is a place to slow down, reconnect, and savor the simple luxury of being near the water. Fishing enthusiasts can enjoy catch and release fly fishing right from the property. (Located right next door to our sister property, River's Edge.)

Planning a group getaway? This property is located directly next to our sister home, River's Edge (VBRO #468011), making it an excellent option for multiple families, wedding guests, retreats, or friends traveling together. Enjoy the convenience of staying close while still having your own private space.

We spent four nights here with our three boys and absolutely loved it. The house is about 18 minutes outside of Durango, and the drive into town is incredibly easy. You get the best of both worlds—close enough to enjoy Durango whenever you want, but far enough out to feel like you’ve really gotten away.The setting is hard to beat. The Florida River is literally right out the back door, and the back doors of the house open completely onto the deck and river. We spent our mornings drinking coffee on the deck in the crisp air, watching the river and the wildlife. Our boys caught trout right behind the house, which was easily one of the highlights of the trip.The house itself is beautiful. The furnishings are upscale but still comfortable, the bathrooms are stunning, and the kitchen and house were very well equipped. The bunk room was perfect for our boys and gave them their own space. It’s also very secluded, with only one neighboring home nearby, so it has a peaceful country feel without sacrificing any of the comforts of a really nice home.Between the river, the wildlife, fishing with the kids, mornings on the deck, and such a beautiful place to come back to each evening, this was exactly what we hoped for in a Colorado getaway. We would absolutely stay here again.
