Tamarron Gambel Oak 783 was a wonderful place to stay. Great location, fully stocked, loved the access to the fitness center. Enjoyed the access to the restaurants. Communication from the management company was great.
We traveled to Durango to fly fish with Heads Up fly fishing which is an amazing guide service. The location of the unit made it easy to fish in Silverton and Durango. The unit has a full kitchen, nice balcony and the separate bedroom gives you the opportunity to enjoy the living room while someone is sleeping. The only noise you will encounter is the unit upstairs. We slept with a sound machine that helped mitigate the noise. It is a comfortable unit with everything we needed and more.

Reviewer Comments:
We really enjoyed this cozy little condo. If you enjoy the amenities of home this rental definitely offers that. We like to cook while vacationing and this place keeps that in mind. The back patio is private and perfect to enjoy a nice cool summer morning coffee. Probably a few odd things to mention but I like as a traveler. Good water pressure, a nice cozy bed & comfy furniture. Clean to a high measurable standard. If you don't like stairs or cannot handle them well, this is not a place for you. We will always keep this place in mind when returning to the area. Thanks for adding to our much needed vacation.
Overall this was a great stay. Let me start with the negative to get that out of the way. When we got to the property, the AC was not working and the temperature was 78 in the condo. I discovered that the AC was froze up. The short version of this story is that the maintenance man working on the weekend had no knowledge of AC systems and told me to turn it off, then turn it on the following evening and “hopefully it would work”. Due to it being a weekend, I could get no further assistance and turned to the internet. I was able to discover that the likely cause was that someone had set the AC to 50. I learned how to thaw the system, which I did. I also changed the filter. I was able to get the AC on in a few hours. The reservation management company did refund us a portion of the first day’s fees.
The condo was very nice. The kitchen was well equipped. The bathroom was very nice. Mattress was very comfortable. The washer and dryer were great as they allowed us to pack less clothes. Everything in this condo was top notch! This condo was perfect for my wife and I and we loved our stay there.

Reviewer Comments:
Inside had practically everything we needed, seemed clean, and was a nice experience. The amenities around the property are excellent. The view from our room was okay, but the pics advertised a more expansive of a view, but the back porch seemed unkept, the view was about 30% of what I saw in photos, and mostly obscured by trees. Additionally, yard maintenance equipment was laying about in the grass so the view was not quite picturesque. Also every day there were random people (I presume staff but some didn’t seem so) walking in the back yard area near the balcony, and I hope they couldn’t see into the back window. We ran out of toilet paper with one day left on the trip and management advised it was our responsibility, so we had to drive the 40 mins round trip to the nearest place at a very inopportune moment. The last night we stayed there, some people must have checked into the room above us bc the noise of walking around kept us up during the night. The inside of the room was very satisfactory, had what we needed. Checking in wasn’t great, the woman at the front desk said she had no other check ins for the day and we had to wait an hour after check in time with two young kids after a long travel day to be able to get to our room but there was a restaurant nearby we could kill some time. Great food options on property, great spa.
We stayed for several days. The unit was exactly as described. It was comfortable, well appointed, and was the mountain retreat we were hoping for. The Resort grounds, golf, recreational offerings, and the restaurants were absolutely amongst the best we’ve experienced. We would highly recommend and we plan to return.
Property had everything we needed! It was perfect for my husband and I and we really enjoyed our stay. Rates for golf have increased to 200 including cart not the stated 165. We'll be back:)
Place is truly a mountain beauty. Provisions were great, communication and maintenance very fast and efficient. The migrating Hummingbirds to our feeder we took for the deck was icing on the cake. Would love to come back.

The condo was very comfortable, clean, stocked, and quite. We enjoyed having access to the fitness center and pool area. There are so many areas to explore nearby, our favorite being the Durango Hot Springs. Totally worth a day pass (or 5)! Not a far drive to downtown for the shopping and restaurants. We also loved James Ranch for their delicious food and market. We will be back, thank you so much!

The unit was very well appointed and comfortable. We’ve vacationed at Tamarron for years and have always been careful to book a unit with golf privileges. This year we were denied golf with pro shop saying we didn’t have that privilege.
Very nice place to stay. Mattress was a little too soft for my husband and I but otherwise We loved it!

The inside of the unit was very nice and overall we were very happy with our stay. The mattress types should be noted in the description when renting as we were trying to avoid a memory foam pad of any type. In addition, the traffic is noisy when sitting on the patio which was unexpected. Also many spider webs along the ceiling which hadn't been knocked down in some time.
Property was just as advertised. The outside deck was covered with pollen (not much you can do about mother nature) other than that it was well cleaned and stocked with more items than anyone should need. Only issue was the loft above which is over the bed bath and kitchen. If they are heavy walkers you will hear every footstep. Especially if they stay up late it can be hard to get to sleep. Only had issue with this one night. Other than that it was a very nice stay.

If you're thinking about booking this condo, don't hesitate. We were looking for a peaceful getaway, and this did not disappoint in any aspect. The condo and property amenities are just as described - everything was spotless and well-maintained. The kitchen was well-stocked with every dish/appliance we needed. The property management staff was courteous and helpful with recommendations. (Hermosa Creek Grill was delicious and the Old Schoolhouse Cafe was a quirky locals hangout with great pizza and other dishes). The fitness center, pools and hot tub were awesome. While the condo is about 20-30 minutes from the downtown Durango area, it is peaceful and quiet and a short, beautiful drive. It was the perfect vantage point for us - we spent time in Durango exploring the restaurants and breweries. Don't miss taking the train up to Silverton (we took a bus back) for stunning scenery. We also took a day trip to Telluride through Delores - more breathtaking photo opportunities. We returned via the northern loop from Telluride to Ouray/Silverton, but going past Ouray is not for those who don't like mountainous hairpin turns with no guardrails :). We were absolutely pleased with our stay, and definitely plan to return!
