Pine Meadow Cabin | Straw Bale, Solar Powered Cabin in Woods - Pets OK

Pine Meadow Cabin is our peaceful 2-bedroom, 2- bath single-level straw bale cabin featuring an open living concept, country kitchen, laundry room covered porch and open patio. The Pine Meadow Cabin, located between Durango and Bayfield, is close to Vallecito & Lemon Lakes, a gorgeous mountain recreation area with boating, fishing, hiking, biking, horseback riding, four-wheeling and more.

Our home's architecture, which uses strawbales as structural elements, is optimal for the arid southwest landscape, helping insulate the home in the winter and keep it cool in the summer. Consistent with most Colorado mountain destinations, the home does not offer air-conditioning. There is a washer/dryer in this home.

BED CONFIGURATION:
* Main Bedroom - King Bed (Main Floor)
* 2nd Bedroom - King Bed (Main Floor)

NOTES: This is a mountain home on a well. Most guests prefer to bring bottled water for drinking due to the high mineral content. There is no cell service located at this property. There is a landline and WiFi calling works.

AREA: This home is appx 30 minutes to downtown Durango, 30 minutes to Vallecito Marina, and 55 minutes to Purgatory ski resort.
In winter (November through April), 4WD is required. It is NECESSARY that you have a four-wheel-drive vehicle, vehicles with medium to high clearance and winter/snow tires.  Although the roads and driveway are well-maintained, they are very steep and curvy, and will be snow packed and slick.

PETS: This home is pet friendly! We allow a maximum of 2 dogs max and the pet fee is $40/day (for a max $250 per stay). Pets must be crated if they are left home alone.

COOLING: Please note that, like most properties in the area, this home does not have AC, as it is uncommon for homes at this elevation. Temperatures inside the property are easily managed by using fans and opening the windows at night when temperatures drop into the 40s.
