Summary: We really enjoyed staying in this cozy 1 bedroom cabin in a ranch setting. It is newly renovated with new appliances and farm house accents. We cooked a few meals in the kitchen and found everything we needed. Farm fresh eggs and wonderful unique tea were a nice treat. The cabin is secluded from the world with great views of the mountains and a babbling brook that provided a serene feeling of peace for our time there. We would definitely recommend this get away for any season. A visit to the James Ranch restaurant and Marketplace just down the road is another great experience with cozy atmosphere and delicious food.

Summary: I had a wonderful, relaxing stay in the cottage. It was great to get away and enjoy the nature all around me. The cottage was clean, cozy and had a well appointed kitchen. There was great WIFI, plenty of hot water and a very comfortable bed. The location was convenient to Durango and the James Ranch Market and grill. Julie was available for anything I might need. I would stay again and highly recommend the cottage.

Summary: What a fabulous cabin and location! Our time spent there was so relaxing and peaceful. The calming sound of the running stream, the joyful chirping of the birds, the glorious sunrise/sunset on the majestic mountains, and the faint melodies of the trains were a blessing to experience. Sitting on the porch sipping hot tea and coffee made the worries of the world all melt away. Everything one would need is readily available. The Host is an absolute gem. She was exceptionally gracious and helpful during our entire stay and made certain our visit was a memorable one. Also, be sure to take a moment to visit their nearby Grill and Market as part of your adventure. We definitely recommend this quaint cottage and will plan to stay there again when we are in the Durango area.

Summary: We were looking for a relaxing place to stay and found it in this cute little cabin. Each day we awoke (and fell asleep) to the rushing brook right outside the cabin door. It was like listening to the rain. The cabin was well stocked, incredibly comfortable, and private. We enjoyed sitting on the covered porch with a cup of coffee and watching the birds and chipmunks. We will keep this place in mind for future stays in Durango.

Summary: Recently I stayed at this cabin on James Ranch and it turned out to be a very unique and tranquil experience. It is a step back in time in a bucolic, old orchard but conveniently a very short distance from James Market and Grill and a few miles from downtown Durango. From the outside the cabin looks like 150 years ago but it is outfitted inside with a full kitchen, comfy bed, washer and dryer and one of my fave things: an electric tea kettle! I loved the tasteful personal touches of beautiful china, lighting and artwork. Relaxing on the front porch, I enjoyed the sounds of the birds, creek and train tooting by. I am very happy to have found this cozy getaway and hope to stay here again. It was a dream come true and a memory I will treasure!
