The property provides plenty of room to roam, with peaceful forest surroundings, mountain scenery, and opportunities to watch and listen for local wildlife. Spend your days hiking, rafting, kayaking, zip-lining, downhill skiing, or soaking in the nearby hot springs, then return home to enjoy the quiet of your own private mountain setting. From the property, take in spectacular views of Lake Nighthorse and the surrounding landscape, especially as the sun sets over the Rocky Mountains.

Inside, the entire home was renovated in 2022 with a brand-new kitchen, bathrooms, and furnishings. The bright interior and comfortable design create a welcoming place to gather after a day of adventure. Relax on the plush furniture, watch a movie together, or step outside onto the balcony with your favorite drink and enjoy the views. The grill provides an easy option for preparing dinner while taking in the peaceful alpine surroundings.

The sophisticated kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals at home, with a gas range, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and everything needed for everyday cooking. Whether you're making breakfast before heading out for the day or preparing dinner for the whole family, the kitchen provides a comfortable and functional space to gather.

The bedrooms are spacious and comfortably furnished, with plenty of room for personal belongings. The primary bedroom features a king-size bed, private TV, and a dedicated workspace with a desk and chair, making it a comfortable option for remote work or catching up on emails during your stay. The en suite bathroom offers a double-sink vanity and a walk-in steam shower, providing a relaxing way to unwind after a day spent outdoors.

There's plenty to keep everyone entertained without leaving the property. Explore the acreage, challenge one another to a game of bean bag toss, or settle in for a family game night with dozens of board games and puzzles, including classic Nintendo games. With expansive outdoor space and comfortable gathering areas inside, the home offers plenty of opportunities to spend quality time together.

When you're ready to explore beyond the property, Lake Nighthorse provides opportunities for water-based recreation, while the surrounding Durango area offers hiking, mountain biking, rafting, kayaking, skiing, and other year-round adventures.
