Peaceful and perfect

My kids and I stayed here for 2 nights. So peaceful. We relaxed, hung out, played games, had a fire, and soaked up the view. We even saw deer! It’s only 30 minutes from Durango which is where we shopped in the afternoon. I highly recommend this place!

Great Escape

Elk Ridge Casita was the perfect location to escape to for a few days. We enjoyed the isolation, the incredible dark sky and star gazing. Meg's cooking was great and made us feel right at home. The wood stove in the tent kept us warm through the chilly nights.

Ruffing It

Well what can I say about this property except that it was awesome and my family and I really enjoyed staying there. To take a trip to Durango was easy and fast, so we were able to enjoy everything around us. The property offers great electricity and very good hospitality in making sure that we were doing well from the hosts.

What a fun and unique experience! Easily the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen, and the star gazing was awesome during our late night fires. If you love camping but want more amenities than normal- this is the place for you!

Unplug and breathe

Enjoyed staying at this peaceful campsite to unplug from the world for a bit. We took advantage of the gourmet meals offered so we wouldn’t have to go anywhere. We were not disappointed! Just wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Home away from Home

If you are wanting to "camp" but have it still feel at home, this is the best place. My family kids are 13, 8 and 6, spent a long weekend here. We were able to explore during the day and relax at night!!!

We enjoyed this adventure for sure! Great accomodations! It was colder than we anticipated so the lack of hot water was a little bit of a challenge but we embraces it and enjoyed! The view is amazing! The most amazing view of the stars.

Superb Accommodations

I highly recommend staying here. The owners have knocked it out of the park with the view and providing everything that one may need for a glamping experience. The owners were quick to respond and ensured we had everything we needed. Location is 30 minutes from Durango and a beautiful drive there. This place felt very secluded but still safe. Definitely check this place out! 5 stars all the way!!!

The Most Incredible Getaway

If you’re lucky enough to stay on this little slice of heaven you will get to enjoy luxury camping at its finest. The spacious canvas tent was perfectly decorated and stocked with everything you would need from wood for the stove to keep you warm at night to locally sourced lavender tea and coffee to enjoy while you watch the sunrise from bed. The home cooked meal was only the cherry on top of a perfect stay. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with us.

Pleasant and relaxing getaway for family

We had a truly wonderful time at the casita. The amenities, atmosphere, host, and communication were very well done. We spent three nights with our young daughters (3,5,7 y.o.) and felt safe, secluded and relaxed the entire time. Amenities of mini-fridge, chimnea, grille, and seating areas were all perfect. We recommend this for a quiet getaway with the peacefulness of camping minus the hassle!

A Fantastic Experience

My husband, daughter and I stayed four nights at this fantastic property. It is a gorgeous and peaceful setting with comfortable amenities. It is glamping at its finest. Meg was a fantastic host. Her communication was quick and she made sure we had what we needed to make our stay comfortable. If you want to try glamping do not hesitate renting this property. It is an easy drive to Durango, which is a great town . We would definitely rent this property again!
