What Guests Say About Staying at Purgatory
Erin Shack
Modern Mountain Escape
Even in a time of little snow, we had a great time in Purgatory! The house itself was nice and newer and had all that we needed. The house was well equipped for cooking meals as there are not many restaurants in the area. The hot tub on the back porch was utilized every night! And the kids loved the ping pong table in the garage:)The real star of the show was the shuttle system to and from the mountain! It was so easy to get back and forth. We never had to wait more than a few minutes and they pulled up right in front of the house which was amazing when traveling with 5 kids.
Laura Mehall
Mountain Gem
This place was perfect for our family of four. There was plenty of space for all of us and we were all very comfortable. The parking was convenient and the check-in process went smoothly. The kitchen is well equipped, and the entire place was very clean. The king-sized bed in the main bedroom was comfortable, and we all enjoyed being so close to the slopes. We would definitely stay here again!

Sitzmark #1
We rented this condo for a spring break ski trip. The snow was a little lacking this year, but the condo was great, and exactly as described. First of all, the place is big. It has 4 legitimate bedrooms, all with the beds described. The kitchen is large for a rental, and is stocked for a group....there were probably 20 plates.

Several Take Two Dogs Alpenglow, Black Bear Travertine, Edelweiss 8, Sitzmark #1 and Modern Mountain Escape accept pets (typically two dogs). Pets are $25 per night each, capped at $200 per dog. -
From About $150 a Night Published floors start around $150 at Angel Haus #117 and climb with size — Engineer House lists from about $800. Always check your dates. -
Summer Works Here Too Purgatory is not only a ski week. Hiking, bike park terrain and the alpine slide keep base-village and resort-corridor rentals busy after the snow melts.
Condos, Townhomes and Homes at the Resort
The plaza condos are the walk-to-lift set. Eolus 522 is the one-bedroom (800 sq ft, sleeps six) with a building pool and two hot tubs. Angel Haus #117 is a two-bedroom that sleeps eight. Last Run sits in the main plaza with a wood-burning fireplace and rooftop hot tub and sauna access.

Ski-In Condo or Shuttle Home?
If walking out to the lift is non-negotiable, start on ski-in, ski-out rentals and the condo-only Purgatory condos page.
If you want more square footage or a private hot tub and can take a short shuttle, look at Black Bear Travertine, Modern Mountain Escape and Engineer House 487 on this page — they are at the resort corridor without the ski-in amenity tag. Midway between Durango and the mountain, Tamarron vacation rentals add resort pools and a ski-season shuttle option without staying in the base village. For townhome floor plans across the valley, see the proposed Durango townhomes page.
