Our Durango vacation rentals with mountain views keep the San Juans in the window from the first cup of coffee to the last light on the peaks. Pick a slopeside condo at Purgatory Resort, a quiet cabin along the Animas Valley, or a luxury home with wraparound decks, then filter the mountain-view rentals below and choose your dates.

We had a great time. The condo is located close to the lifts and was well stocked. We cannot wait to come back.
Samuel Smith
The location is very peaceful, and the outside scenery is filled with wildlife and beautiful views. It is obvious the owners want visitors to be comfortable!

We have stayed at the Mountain Gem property for 3 years in row! Perfect location. Perfect everything.
Durango sits in a river valley ringed by the San Juan Mountains, so the view changes with the season — green in June, gold in October, white by December.
Most of these homes look north and east into the San Juans, the range that gives Durango its skyline.
Some of the best views belong to our Purgatory condos, where the mountain is the view.
Filter for rentals with a deck and you get a front-row seat to the peaks.
Evenings run cool at 6,500 feet, and our rentals with a fireplace make the most of it.
Soak with the mountains in front of you in one of our rentals with a hot tub.
Layouts run from studios up to six bedrooms, so everyone gets a window.
The view is the reason you booked, but it is also the trailhead. Hiking trails climb straight out of the valley, the San Juan National Forest starts just past town, and the San Juan Skyway loops past some of the best overlooks in Colorado. If you would rather ride than walk, Durango’s bike trails are a short pedal from most of these homes.

Many do. Use the rentals with a deck filter to see the homes with outdoor space facing the view.
In winter we strongly recommend all-wheel drive with chains in the trunk, or four-wheel drive. Roads are plowed regularly and driveways are cleared after three to four inches of snow. A few homes require four-wheel drive, and we let you know in advance if yours is one of them.
Late September into mid-October brings gold aspens across the San Juans, and the peaks hold snow from roughly November into spring. Summer stays green and clear. See the best time of year to visit Durango.
You go straight to the home you booked and use either a door code or a lockbox. About 30 days before your stay we email a guest information sheet with the property address and access codes, once your balance is paid in full and your rental agreement is signed. For Tamarron units, check-in is at the front desk.
