We have been fortunate enough to stay in a number of different vacation rental homes around the world and found that Elk Hollow Retreat has the best equipped kitchen of any place we have stayed. As foodies and a family of seven, this made our week very enjoyable. The house is so comfortable, convenient, and beautiful. We absolutely fell in love with Durango and I’m positive that Elk Hollow was a big part of that.

| Our family spent Christmas 2009 at Elk Hollow Retreat, and we didn't want to leave! The house was immaculate and we truly felt as though we were "home". The property is very private and expansive. While the children played in the snow, I made myself at home in a very well appointed kitchen loaded with upgraded appliances and all the equipment needed to make a special Christmas dinner. The bedding was very comfortable, the towels fluffy, and the fireplace very inviting. The view from the sofa was breathtaking, and I could have spent all my time enjoying the scenery. To our suprise there was a two car garage to park our rental in. Very nice touch when it's -9 degrees outside! The owners made certain that the drive to the main road was always clear so we could come and go during snowstorms. Hot water was plentiful and the house stayed toasty warm. As much as I would like to keep this gem to myself, I know I must share so I can come back! |

Thank you for sharing your beautiful mountain home with us. It was one of the most relaxing vacations in a long time. Great beds, which helped us all get a good nights sleep. It was wonderful to have a safe place to let all the dogs run. And boy did they tire themselves out! We can't wait to make a reservation for our next visit to Elk Hollow Retreat!

What an exquisite home to enjoy the mountain air. We and our dogs had a wonderful time. Loved watching the stars from the deck. Such a family and pet friendly place- especially for people who can't travel without their dogs.

We had forgotten how beautiful the sky is and how many stars there are. Thank you for sharing this beautiful retreat with us. We feel rested and relaxed - ready to get back to the schedule. We especially enjoyed the comfortable beds, the deck and barbecue, and the kids love the "sand circle"! Thank you again!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We have so enjoyed dinner on the porch, breakfast in the dining room and napping and catching up with friends in the living room. This has been an enjoyable place to rest, play and refill the well. We go home with the thought of looking forward to our next visit. Take care and we hope to see you again soon.

Our visit was the last week in July. It was a great place to take our kids and grandkids. The house was perfect. Furnished well. The lovely valley was very relaxing and beautiful. We saw Coyotes, Elk and deer during our stay. The owners were very accommodating and careful not to intrude on our privacy. Our grandchildren loved the deck for playing and the yard. I would recommend this vacation spot to anyone. We enjoyed all that Durango had to offer. The people were very friendly. We took the train ride both ways and enjoyed it despite the recommendation to only take it one way and then take the bus back. Our 5 year old wanted both ways. Thank you for sharing your place with us.

Our family just stayed at Elk Hollow and it was the perfect place for our reunion. We just loved the home. It was gorgeous and had everything you could dream of. Everything seemed brand new and it was beautifully decorated. The lot was gorgeous. We even had horses running up and down the back fence every evening and a moose one night. The deck and views from the deck were great. We spent a lot of time outside on it. The home was only a short easy drive from Durango so it was perfect for us. I would highly recommend staying here. The property managers are wonderful to deal with and on top of everything. We never needed a thing while there. |

| My wife and I had a fantastic expierence at Elk Hollow and would highly recommend it to anyone. The owners are very solicitous and helpful and the house is well furnished with fantastic views and atmoshpere. We very much enjoyed cooking outside in the evening and dining on the deck overlooking the valley as the sun went down behind the nearby mountains. The valley is the perfect escape and you would never know that Durango is only 15 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again. |

We want to thank you for the many visits we have enjoyed at Elk Hollow Retreat. We have stayed there during every season and have had a fabulous time always! In winter it makes a great retreat with easy access to different ski resorts and a comfortable and warm home to recover from the slopes. In summer it offers a great spot to start hiking from and you can also relax outside on the beautiful deck. It is also close enough to enjoy a wild ride down the Animas River. In fall, the colors are amazing! We look forward to all of our future trips to Durango and wouldn’t consider staying anywhere but Elk Hollow Retreat. It is our home away from home!
