Dog Friendly Sunny Alpine Suite near town

Alpine Views on the way to Mesa Verde. 10 minutes from Durango by car. Good for families, pet friendly, broadband. A unique walk out apartment in owner's home with mountain views, lots of light and ideally located between Durango, Lake Nighthorse, and Mesa Verde National Park (20 min) on the Alpine loop highway. Whether enjoying the outdoor deck + grill overlooking the basketball courts or using it for a homebase for all the activities in the area, this comfortable location will be ideal. The unit includes a fully stocked kitchenette with oversized toaster oven, granite counter tops, and radiant heating. It has a well furnished living space with a twin sized sofa sleeper. Use of the WD can be arranged via appointment. Dog friendly fenced yard. Owner lives in top two levels. There is usually someone available during the day to answer your questions. Durango West is a family and pet-friendly development with a Durango style safe, relaxed and informal attitude. Mostly, it's a community for those who work locally and not a resort. Multiple trails for hiking or mountain biking from your door. Once in town there is a motor trolley, but still most people will need to drive. It's an easy 20 minute downhill bike into town, but it's a thousand vertical feet climb back up. A pickup ride back up the hill is available by appointment. Hesperus ski area is five minutes away, and Mancos, which is sort of a throwback to colorado ski towns in the 70s (heavy on ranchers, miners, and loggers, with a dusting of hippies, artists, and creative types attracted by the cheap rent) is about twenty minutes away. There is an outdoor fireplace usable when it's not fire season and a pickleball court nearby.
