Catastrophic Events & Emergency Evacuations 
If a catastrophe (fire, snowstorm, flood, etc.) or any situation beyond our control impairs or impedes the viability of the vacation rental, Durango Colorado Vacations is not responsible for finding alternate lodging for the renter or for the renter's financial losses related to transportation or alternate lodging.  There will be no refunds or credits in the event of extreme weather or natural disaster.  Therefore, again, we strongly suggest you consider travel insurance to secure your vacation investment and eliminate your financial risk.
