About this home
Located approximately 18 miles northeast of Durango at 8,000 feet, here is a unique opportunity to live in the woods, yet still be close to town! This charming 2 bedroom/2 bath log cabin is just 2.2 miles from Vallecito Lake. And just because it is close to Vallecito Lake, rest assured that this property IS NOT in a flood plain. The 1,344 square foot log home comes with both creature comforts and mountain sanctuary. Enjoy the live stream at the back of the property or the covered porch in the front; this property is idyllic from all angles. Designed for connected living, the kitchen and living room share an inviting, open layout that keeps everyone part of the conversation. The kitchen has a closet for storage, as does the upstairs bedroom. There is a spacious bedroom/loft upstairs with its very own bathroom. The main bedroom is on the first floor equipped with an efficient and stylish thermostatic controlled propane gas heating stove. The living room soars into the upper-level loft, highlighting the cathedral ceilings that create an open feel while maintaining the home’s signature cozy charm. With a focus on durability, the pipes and crawlspace are fully insulated, ensuring a low-maintenance, winter-ready retreat. The living room has a propane heater on the wall and a wood stove allowing for versatility in fuel options. This log cabin is moments away from world class fishing at Vallecito Lake. Vallecito Lake (often called Vallecito Reservoir) is one of Colorado’s largest and most beautiful high-altitude lakes. A gateway to the Weminuche Wilderness, the area is known for its secluded mountain feel and its deep connection to the local community. Outdoor enthusiasts welcome! Whether you are a hiker, backpacker, boater, fisherman, or big game hunter, this property serves as the ultimate base camp for every mountain adventure. Please note that the images of Lake Vallecito, located just 2.2 miles away, are not taken from the property grounds but are included to highlight the premier recreational opportunities nearby....
