Summer fun and fishing on Private Lake Purgatory

Durango, Colorado holds the beauty of a vanished world. It is the most tranquil place mixed with history, recreation, and unerasable memories. Our 2600+ square foot custom home on 20 acres is nestled in the mountains overlooking beautiful Lake Purgatory. The brilliance of Engineer and Spud Mountain can be seen to the North, and to the East the Animas River which flows through the La Plata Mountains.

The home was created by the hands of a master with each window intricately creating a new view of the lake. Giant doors lead you onto a deck where you'll find a hot tub that you can soak in after your daily activities. At night the sky is so black, you'll feel like you're sitting under an umbrella of stars. The night is so peaceful you can hear the fish in the water. You'll be located at an elevation of 9000 feet somewhere in the vicinity of the gods. The interior is very comfortable with all luxurious amenities that will connect you back to the real world. Now that you've found the perfect place to visit, look no further for a place to stay.

You can walk out and fish for rainbow, brook and brown trout in the backyard. We have a boat you can take out to fish the lake. Boat agreement provided. It is a private lake so you won't see many others. Fishing gear available, you must use catch and release hooks. Summer is the busy season in Durango, you can ride the train, hike, bike, bobsled at the ski area across the street, horseback riding, gold panning or rest and read a book. We are 26 miles north of Durango. If you have any questions please feel free to call. Experience Durango, Colorado.
“In the winter, a 4WD/AWD vehicle equipped with snow tires or chains is required in this area, please be prepared.”

Perfect summer vacation spot
We had a wonderful vacation here. The location is perfect - it’s nice and quiet, and the lake is beautiful. It’s easy to visit Durango, Silverton, and Ouray from this spot. The house is comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed fishing in the lake, and sightseeing around the area. We will definitely be back next year!

Amazing mountain lake home
This is an amazing getaway home, the private community lake is beautiful, and stocked with many trout to fish for, and multiple watercraft to get you out there. The whole renting process, communication and well, just about anything you need, is simplified due to the lengths that the owners Joe and Marcia go to make you visit great, then you have Mike the caretaker, that handles just about anything while you're visting. And his professionalism, coincides with the owners lengths.The kitchen is unbelievably stocked with pots, pans, and dinner sets for multiple people, and this is one of the few places, you'll ever find well stocked spices and such for you to use. Amazing is barely expressive enough to say, so go visit this home and find out the treasures. My wife and I, will surely visit again. Thanks so much for allowing us to experience the property.

Ski adventure
This is our third year coming to ski at Purgatory and this time we brought our friends with us. The place was perfect for two families with the kids taking the upstairs loft and the downstairs bedroom, while the adults staying in the two main floor bedrooms. The place was warm, clean and with great views. The ski resort is not crowded at all and very affordable, while still offering plenty of runs for both intermediate and advanced skiers. And the town of Durango has a great selection of fun restaurants, bakeries and shops that we continue to explore. We will likely come again one more time before moving to a different mountain for a change.

Spectacular home, location and host/ support staff: Better than ever hoped!
All 6 of us were amazed by a stunning home, location and incredibly responsive host and Mike, the home caretaker. Home and location is even better than pictures. Everything and more was available: tons of cookware, boot/glove dryers, abundance of towels. Super clean and decorative! Sweet personal touches like most adorable recipe box. I especially enjoyed the Christmas decorations. Driveway kept well shoveled even after 15" snow. Hot tub was super clean. View of stars, lake and trees amazing. And even got a very sweet and unexpected birthday bouquet and two very shiny Indian head nickels for the twins birthday!!! Thank-you for fabulous memory for twin's 21st birthday❣️❣️
