Downtown Durango-New Custom Timber Frame-the Carriage House

The Carriage House is a beautiful custom home located in a bustling part of historic downtown Durango. The house was completed in 2011 and was built to the highest standard of quality, with warm timber frame accents, radiant-heat floors, and stained concrete counters and sinks. This house is a legal and permitted vacation rental so there will be no troubles with your stay (project #19-030, permit #19-030).
We own another house downtown: the Durango Hideout that sleeps 10 in 4 bedrooms (vrbo# 1150651).
The Carriage house has 3 bedrooms, which are all located upstairs. The master has its own spacious bathroom and a king bed. A second bedroom has a queen bed. Then there is a third bedroom that has a queen along with a twin in a loft of this room. The entire second floor has gorgeous vaulted timber ceilings. Downstairs, there is a full bathroom, a great room, and the kitchen, which has bar seating, stainless steel appliances, and concrete counter tops. Outside, there is a front porch and a back patio, which is equipped with a grill and seating. Inside, the on-demand hot water system ensure you will always have plenty of hot water. The house is now equipped AC. We put individual units in the bedrooms and one in the living space so it will be plenty cool.

This is the perfect spot to enjoy the Durango lifestyle, as you are in a busy neighborhood within minutes of restaurants, shops, the bike path, the Animas River, and city parks. Sit on the front porch and watch the Durango-Silverton Narrow Gauge Train rumble right by the house, or take a stroll on the river path that’s just a minute away.

Comfortable & Unique Downtown Home
Quiet and spacious home within walking distance of Main Street restaurants and attractions. Kitchen is well equipped for making your own meals. Bedrooms are comfortable — we slept very well for the entire week. Easy, assigned parking for 2 cars. Andrew is an attentive host. I’ll certainly check availability here first for my next Durango trip. Thank you Andrew! Our stay in your beautiful home was a pleasure!

Fabulous house near the river
Carriage House is in a great location near the river and walking trail. It’s also a very solid, beautiful house, with everything you need supplied. Andrew is easy to reach and responds quickly; we asked for a late check out and he worked to make that happen. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful Place to Stay
The location was perfect and the house was very clean, comfortable. and equipped with everything needed. It was a quick walk to downtown and the beautiful river trail. We could ride our mountain bikes from the house to nearby trails. My husband loved the Durango Silverton train that went right by the house. Fishing was also only a short walk away.

Great location for short term stay
The carriage house was nicely furnished. The beds were comfortable. The AC units were a nice touch but a bit noisy. We aren't used to city ife so the traffic and AC noises were a bit much. Lovely and convenient area for walks, lots of parks, near Animas trail.

Great location in Durango
We spent a week at the Carriage House. As other reviewers have stated it, it was one the best equipped and cleanest properties I have rented thru VRBO. The location was excellent, easy walking distance to downtown and just a short walk to the Animas river trail.

Amazing Stay and Property
We have been to Durango multiple times. It's one of our favorite Colorado towns. This rental property was amazing! It had the perfect amount of space for our family. Each kid had their own room and space. The woodwork and details put into the home really added an extra touch. The host had pretty much anything you could need available at the home. The location of the house was perfect, as it was in close walking distance to downtown, and a short drive to anywhere we needed to go in town. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Durango.

Durango stay
First time to stay in a timberframe home, and it did not disappoint. Beautiful, comfortable home that had everything we needed. Several eateries within walking distance, and the Durango-Silverton train depot was just a very short drive. Very nice neighborhood. Andrew was a great host --- communicated very well. Really appreciated the opportunity to stay here for a couple nights!

Wonderful Durango Stay
This property was perfect. Extremely clean, well stocked with towels and extra pillows and blankets. Location couldn’t be better. Beautiful front porch next to lilac bush allowed for early morning coffee with some deer walking by. Host was very accommodating and very easy to talk with. Can’t recommend this rental high enough!!

Very clean and comfortable property, within walking distance to town with restaurants and bars. The property is located very close to the railway line, which we loved, it was fun watching the train go by twice a day. The whole point of us being in Durango was for a trip on the train to Silverton and it didn't disappoint us. Would highly recommend the trip as the scenery was stunning. Overall we had a fantastic time, the property and town were both charming and will remember forever,
