About this home
Perched high above the breathtaking Animas Valley, Animas Vista Lodge is a spectacular luxury mountain retreat offering the perfect blend of comfort, recreation, privacy, and proven income potential. Located at 8888 County Road 250, approximately eight miles north of Durango, this exceptional 4,500-square-foot residence enjoys one of the most desirable locations in Southwest Colorado — ideally positioned between Historic Downtown Durango and Purgatory Resort with nearby access to Missionary Ridge and the San Juan National Forest. Designed to comfortably accommodate large gatherings while maintaining a warm and inviting atmosphere, the home features six bedrooms, four baths, multiple entertainment areas, and sleeping accommodations for up to 15 guests. The tobacco-free and pet-free residence showcases a beautiful Southwestern interior with quality furnishings, timber-frame ceilings, and expansive windows framing incredible 360-degree panoramic views of the Animas Valley, Missionary Ridge red cliffs, Engineer Mountain, and surrounding peaks. The heart of the home is the expansive main-level great room where vaulted ceilings and dramatic mountain vistas create an unforgettable gathering space. The spacious kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, complete with a gas log fireplace and easy access to multiple outdoor entertaining spaces. Two luxurious king primary suites anchor the main level, each featuring private decks, HDTVs, stunning views, and one offering its own gas log fireplace. Two additional queen bedrooms and a shared bath complete the first floor. The second level is designed for recreation and relaxation, highlighted by an impressive 30’ x 30’ vaulted game room featuring a nine-foot pool table, Foosball, wet bar, built-in desk area, surround sound entertainment system, and large Sony HDTV. Massive windows capture breathtaking views in every direction while plush seating creates the perfect setting for movie nights or après-ski gatherings. Additional upstairs accommodations include a third king bedroom suite plus a combination bunk and exercise room with treadmill, elliptical machine, HDTV, and spectacular mountain views. Another upgrade is a newly installed 8.8 KW Solar System that offsets most electrical needs. Outdoor living at Animas Vista Lodge is equally extraordinary. The expansive 30’ x 26’ covered outdoor living porch is truly the centerpiece of the property, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, propane grill, and custom 14-foot dining table designed for unforgettable evenings overlooking the valley sunsets and surrounding mountains. Additional decks and outdoor spaces take advantage of the property’s unmatched scenery and peaceful setting. Located along scenic East Animas Drive, one of the valley’s most popular biking routes, the property is just minutes from Dalton Ranch Golf Club, Trimble Hot Springs, upscale shopping, dining, and the famous Bar D Chuckwagon. Whether utilized as a private family retreat, luxury mountain getaway, or successful vacation rental investment with established rental history, Animas Vista Lodge represents a rare opportunity to own an iconic Colorado mountain property in one of Durango’s most sought-after locations.
