About this property

Cabin in Sought After Animas Valley, Hot Tub, A/C, Close to Hot Springs!

The best of Colorado awaits at Camp Middle Bear. Nestled beneath tall pines and complete with your own private hot tub, this is the perfect mountain getaway for connection with family and friends. And did we mention the location? This newly-remodeled, AIR CONDITIONED 3-bedroom/2-bath home is located in the gorgeous Animas Valley, just 20 minutes north of Historic Downtown Durango and 15 minutes south of Purgatory Ski Resort. Its central location ensures you'll have easy access to all the great offerings in the surrounding area for a memorable Durango mountain vacation.

Durango's stunning red cliffs serve as the idyllic backdrop to this professionally-designed home. Step inside to an open floor plan and a spacious dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows where you'll want to gather for a good meal, board games, and views of the abundant wildlife. Or maybe you'll opt to relax in one of the window seats in the living room. With over 300 days of sunshine annually in Durango, it's always a good time to grab a book and settle in.

The gourmet kitchen is sure to captivate your inner-chef with its soapstone countertops and modern finishes, all stocked to a budding chef's delight. The main floor also offers a private bedroom with a queen bed and an adjacent, full bathroom. The two additional private bedrooms are located on the second floor. One room, with a queen bed and the second, with a bunk bed.

Need another place to rest your head after a long day playing in the mountains? Feel free to use the cabinet bed in the loft that easily converts into a queen bed. You'll feel like you're camping indoors as you gaze up through the skylight to the starry Colorado skies above. The loft also serves as a great bonus area for kids or other guests to enjoy their own space. Lastly, a thoughtfully-designed downstairs laundry room with a cozy desk area offers a quiet spot for conference calls–or to settle in and write the next great American novel.

We hope you'll make Camp Middle Bear the centerpiece of your next vacation. You're sure to leave with indelible memories.

Beautiful- they've thought of everything!
Would absolutely rebook at Camp Middle Bear! The owners have truly thought of everything and no expense has been spared to make this a top notch little cabin. Beautiful surroundings (a bit closer to the road than the pictures imply, but totally not an issue- very quiet), perfectly equipped home, ideal distance from the mountain/Durango- I could go on and on. Wouldn't hesitate to return and we highly, highly recommend- you won't be disappointed! Thank you Camp Middle Bear for a great home away from home and wonderful memories!

Beautiful Stay within Reach to All the Right Stuff
We had a great week here catching the end of ski season at Purgatory with fresh powder, enjoying the Durango Hot Springs just down the road, and eating some great meals whether homecooked, downtown Durango, and at James Ranch nearby. The backyard hot tub at the end of a day on the slopes is a particular highlight. Definitely would be a great place in the spring or summer as well, for hikes and other fair weather adventures. Well designed space that allowed for some remote work amidst the fun, too. Highly recommend!

Perfect Family Cabin
We stayed at Camp Middle Bear for a family ski vacation. We are a family of ski with two extra kids tagging along. The house was a little tight for the 8 of us, but only because we had two giant teen boys. There were multiple sleeping options, including blow up mattresses as an extra option. We LOVED the location of this property. We have stayed in Durango previously for a ski trip and stayed in town. We much preferred this mid point location between town and Purgatory. The house is newly remodeled and well stocked with games and space for gathering. We were a little chilly, but only because we didn’t utilize the space heaters around until the last day. We thought they were fans because they looked so nice. We cooked at the house, we ordered in, the kids played in the yard, wildlife went by our window, my husband and I both worked in the adorable work space at times, and overall we really liked our stay. We would love to come back to this property in the summer.
