What Guests Say About New Year’s Eve in Durango Stays
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.

Happy Pick
The place was beautiful, impeccably clean and just what we imagined from the description. It was the perfect set up for our group, half of which enjoyed the incredibley short distance to the ski resort, and the other which enjoyed the other nearby attractions.
Chris Kamprath
Heavenly Daze
House was super clean and comfy. Great setting and very private. Definitely need 4 wheel drive in the winter if it snows/freezes. The Nugget is right across the neighborhood and has great food. Also, super close to Purgatory. Great place to stay if you're skiing
