Waterfall Ranch home

Enjoy a lower-level studio apartment at a centennial ranch in the Animas Valley just 5 miles north of Durango. Just bring your toothbrush and clothing; the rest is ready for you.
10 minutes from downtown Durango and 20 minutes to Purgatory Ski Resort.
Beautiful views of the mountains.
Comfortable new queen-size mattress in the master bedroom, kitchen, and family room with a trundle bed that makes 2 twin beds for extra sleeping accommodations and a private bathroom.
There is a couch, a loveseat, and a trundle bed for your relaxation. There are 4 separate seating areas outside during the spring, summer, and fall. Your comfort is my top priority.
TV has a fire stick and VCR with a selection of movies. Enjoy games, work on a puzzle, or relax in the hammock or on the loveseat with a book from our library.
In the spring, summer and fall you will enjoy outdoor living with outdoor dining on the patio, enjoy the gazebo with a fireplace and a beautiful flower garden, and a meditation garden.
Hike above the property to our waterfall or enjoy the quiet of Animas River Wetlands where you see birds, deer, and maybe a red-tail fox.

Best Vacation Ever!

Waterfall Ranch has so much history and Patti's hospitality is absolutely wonderful. She made sure that we had everything we could possibly want and very comfortable. She even invited us for a family/friends dinner on our last night's stay. We did NOT want to leave and felt at home. we WILL be back next year. Best vacation we've ever had!

Dream getaway for outdoor enthusiasts

Welcoming host and easy check in made it very easy to start relaxing. The bonus was the amazing history of the ranch and the Zink family. We were there to mountain bike and hang out, which we enjoyed immensely. The location is amazing - Durango Hot Springs is just down the road.

Beautiful and welcoming spot

Really a lovely, comfortable and historic property in a gorgeous setting convenient to Durango and the San Juan Mountains of southern Colorado. The owners are a long established local family, and this is a true ranch house including lovely gardens--and a couple of beautiful horses. Greatly enjoyed our stay!

Great option for staying in Durango

The basement apartment is about ten minutes north of Durango below the ranch house, 45 minutes south of Silverton. Out the front door is a beautiful view of the mountains across the valley. Parking is in front of the unit. The bedroom has a very comfy bed and bedding. There is a trundle bed (twin) in the sitting room. The kitchen is small and intended for simple meals. Lovely tableware! The bathroom is large and includes liquid soap/shampoo/conditioner in the shower. Small basement windows provided for some ventilation. Any cooking odors were hard to dispel. Location is great. Not too close to town and closer to a lot of the mountain destinations we went to. Arrival was super easy—we walked in the door and keys to the locked unit were laid out for us. Departure was just as easy. We stripped the beds but didn’t have to. The unit was very clean. Patti, the owner, was nearly invisible but was responsive when we needed her for anything.

Relaxing Stay

What a great place to stay while in Durango- just outside of town on a centennial ranch. Plenty of space to relax, hike right out the back door, and admire the views. Patti is a gracious host and it was really interesting to read the history of the ranch. If you want to be close to Durango but get away from the crowd, this is a great place to stay!

All who saw where I stayed were envious. Several of us stayed at different locations nearby. Everything was very clean, quiet with a comfortable bed which was important to someone with back problems. The outside areas were beautiful. The inside was unique with many amenities and felt like home. The location was perfect. It surpassed my expectations.

Durango Waterfall Ranch

We really enjoyed the Waterfall Ranch. Patti Zink, the owner, was very helpful. We took the train to Silverton. The suite was clean, we did have to kill 3-5 bugs. Patti gave us a lot of great ideas of what to do in Durango and the surrounding area. The property around Waterfall Ranch is so relaxing. They even talk about Waterfall Ranch on the narrow gague railroad. Maybe better signage or markings to show where to turn into the ranch. We missed the turn-in almost every time.
