Great location
We loved our stay at the Animas River Cabin. It was very quiet and yet close to Durango downtown. We also enjoyed the fire pit next to the river. The manager was very helpful during our check-in. I would rent this cabin again next time back.

We're delighted to hear that you loved your stay at the Animas River Cabin! It's wonderful that you found the location quiet yet convenient to downtown Durango, and that you were able to enjoy the fire pit next to the river – what a serene setting! We're glad to hear that our manager was helpful during your check-in process. Thank you for your kind words, and we'd be thrilled to welcome you back to the cabin next time you're in the area!
