Fantastic mountain stay north of Durango
My family and I stayed two nights at Mountain Time during the first week of April. We decided to stay here because it was big enough for our family, and we wanted to get a short ski trip in at Purgatory Resort before continuing our road trip. We were very happy with our choice. It was easy to find, and Whitney gave us great advice about the atea and the ski resort. The home was very well furnished, well decorated, and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare dinner, although one of the nights we walked to The Olde Schoolhouse just down the road and picked up some of the best pizza we have had in years. This house was quite close to the ski resort and we were parked at the resort less than five minutes after leaving the house. We enrolled three of our kids in ski lessons for a day, and rented some from the resort, but there is another ski rental directly across the road from the house. The townhome community has a hot tub, which was great to use after skiing. The garage had some ski storage and had foosball, ping pong and other games, and the kids and I played for quite a while. I loved the fireplace. It’s one of the prettiest I’ve ever seen. I am looking forward to coming back with my family in the future!
