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

Welcome to Pine Meadow Cabin — a serene straw bale retreat nestled between Durango and Bayfield, Colorado. This thoughtfully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath single-level home offers a harmonious blend of rustic craftsmanship and modern comfort, all set against the backdrop of the stunning San Juan Mountains.

Step inside to an open-concept living area where warm natural textures meet simple elegance. A country-style kitchen invites you to gather, cook, and create memories, while the cozy living space opens to a covered front porch—perfect for morning coffee or evening stargazing. Out back, an open patio offers a peaceful spot for dining alfresco or just soaking in the stillness of the surrounding landscape.
Crafted with straw bale construction, this eco-conscious home is ideally suited for Colorado’s arid climate, staying naturally warm in winter and cool in summer—no air conditioning needed. A dedicated laundry room with washer and dryer adds convenience to your stay.

Just a short drive away, Vallecito and Lemon Lakes offer endless opportunities for boating, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, and more. Whether you're chasing mountain sunrises or off-road thrills, there's something here for every kind of adventurer.

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, but there is a landline and WiFi calling works. There is not a grill at this property as it tends to attract bears.

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.

Family of four on vacation. The cabin was comfortable and well maintained. Was in a rural neighborhood but not too close to anyone. The property was peaceful, lot's of birds and critters to watch. The nights were quiet and dark (which was nice coming from a Texas suburb)! It was a great place to come back to and relax after our many activities. About 20/25 minutes to Durango. Would stay again, for certain. It did get a little warm inside during the day, Maybe low to mid 80s; but that's because were were staying at probably the hottest part of the year. Owner had a swamp cooler and fans inside that helped. We opened the windows at night which was great because the temps got down to the low 60s/high 50s. The mornings were beautiful and cool. I might suggest bring drinking water as the tap water there is fairly soft and slightly sulfuric. This made all the difference when brewing coffee. A week or so before we asked to tack an extra day on the front of our stay because. We immediately got a response that it could be done. This place was just what my family was looking for! Thanks!

Great location about 30 minutes from downtown Durango. easy access to trails and lakes. Very well equipped and furnished. Lovely backyard where pets can play safely at will. We really enjoyed the place and will be back for "real" (see comment below about internet) vacations. A few details that could have made the stay from Good to Great. - The internet works however is extremely slow (Speedtest : Ping 600 MS Download 9.99Mbps Upload 0.50 Mbps). this makes it ok to browse the internet casually but definitely not OK for a workcation week. Do not count on being able to do Zoom call form there. We had to go work downtown in a rented office. - On the description pictures, there is a tarp outside that give shade on the terrasse. the Tarp was not there, this is unfortunate as it could have been pleasant to be outside in the shade. - Finally, all the sink drain need cleanup. there is a very bad odor coming for mthe drains when water flows.

The property is exactly as advertised. Clean, comfortable, and beautiful area. It was a great base camp for our Durango adventures. There was an unprecedented heat wave while we were there. The owners prepared, and supplied us with fans and a large swamp cooler which made a huge difference, and kept us comfortable. I recommend this property to anyone visiting the Durango area.

We really enjoyed the cabin. It was extremely quiet and close to both Lake Lemon and Vallecito (which are awesome). The drive up to the cabin is pretty steep but ok for an SUV, truck or Subaru. Definitely bring water; as noted in other reviews the Sulphur smell is strong. The solitude of the cabin is worth the trade offs though.

The strawbale house itself is eclectic in terms of decoration, but it grows on you. The furniture layout in the main room makes no sense, but I guess it somehow works. What I didn't like is that when I booked the property, there was no mention of having a 4WD vehicle with snow tires required, until I received the check-in information. Didn't matter - my X5 made it through the neighborhood just fine, even without snow tires. Had to shovel 24" of snow off the driveway, because the guy that was supposed to plow it didn't show up till 6PM, and we needed food. Good cardio workout, but it took 4 hours to clear. That said, that would not be the standard experience, as it was an act of mother nature. Cabin was clean, all standard cooking implements were there. Bed was comfortable. Also, the TV has subscriptions to all streaming services I can imagine.

We enjoyed our time at this cabin. It’s depicted accurately and is clean and comfortable. Is located about 20-30 minutes away from Durango. Main negative is the well water has a strong sulfur odor more than taste. We chose to purchase all our drinking water to be on the safe side. Wifi service occasionally quite slow or may even drop, but most of the time worked well. It’s well equipped and overall met our expectations and needs.

This is the second time we have stayed at this property. It's not too far from Durango and it's beautiful and peaceful. The kitchen is well stocked and the beds are comfy. Everything you need in a vacation rental.

The property itself is fine. The pictures make it seem that the land dimensions are larger than reality. The interior is great. Recommend staging it with fresh keurig pods before every visit since it is quite a ways to the store. The largest issue we had was the sulfur smell from the water. There seems to be something very wrong going on with the rotten egg / sulfur smell. There's ways to mitigate this and I recommend the owners invest in this mitigation so that future guests don't have to deal with smelling that every time they run water. In the mean time, staging each visit with a case of bottled water would be great until they get the smell under control. Other than that, great visit.

This is a very nice, quiet cabin in the woods. It was immaculately clean and well stocked. We enjoyed our stay very much. The only suggestion I have for future guests is that you might want to bring bottled water to drink and cook from as the well water has a sulphur smell. This is easily dealt with and otherwise a great cabin close to Lemon and Vallecito lake, hiking and Durango.
