Beautiful property in a great location
Our original location had a problem and we were given four choices of other properties to choose from. We chose Creekside and we are thrilled that we did!! It was a perfect location and a beautiful property!!! It could not have been any better!! The house was beautiful and right on a creek that ran through the property. Can’t wait to come back!!
Diana T. - Posted: 8/19/2025
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad Creekside turned out to be the perfect fit for your stay. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the beautiful setting by the creek—we’d love to welcome you back anytime! -Erika

Creek side vacation
We loved the house and location. The sound of the Florida river was wonderful ever present in the background. Humming birds flitted around us whenever we were on the porch enjoying the yard.

Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad you loved the house and location, and that the peaceful sound of the Florida River and the visits from hummingbirds made your time on the porch even more special. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Winter wonderland
The place is beautiful. It snowed while we were there, it was a winter wonderland. We followed their instructions and took a 4x4, it really saved us. The house has everything you need. It's warm and cozy. Thanks for letting us stay in your house. It was an amazing trip with my brothers and thier families.

Loved it!
We loved the location with all the creeks and rivers. The house was very comfortable and bigger than we imagined. We spent a lot of time on the deck and enjoying the trees, squirrels, and birds.

Great Cabin in the Mountains
We enjoyed our stay in this cozy cabin. Nestled in the tall pines near the creek. Nice quiet relaxing location, close to the city of Durango.

Family Friendly Home Next to the Florida River
Wonderful, family friendly home with all the amenities. Very clean. My 3 boys and I enjoyed catching trout from the near by river. If ever back in a Durango we will choose this house again.

The McFarland Family
Having been a property owner near this property it was
very nostalgic for me. It was near Vallecito Res.for
boaters but this year it was very low, as this is not
unusual for time of year and drought conditions
all over. As per Creekside it was wonderful and
very comfortable. Fully equipt with more than I
would have expected. While it is a little out
from Durango it is only 20 min. to the train
station. The colors were just starting to change
so that was a bonus. Would highly recommend this
property for anyone who is visiting the area and
wants to be away from city life. Plan your grocery
shopping. Bayfield is a little more distant than
Durango so that's where we got most of our supplies.
