Perfect location!
Our family enjoyed this spot due to its location! Every activity we planned was within close proximity to our rental. Nice and quiet place to enjoy the wide life and to watch the golfers! The kids enjoyed the indoor and the outdoor pools as well at the hot tub! The grill food was excellent! Staff were very friendly! Grounds very well maintained! Overall our family had an awesome vacation!

The check in process was simple and straightforward. However, when we arrived at the property the Murphy and the sofa bed had dirty sheets and no pillows. We were able to find clean bed linens and changed our self. Several of the upstairs bathrooms had outlets that didn’t work. Maintenance was prompt to make repairs. My biggest complaint is that the property it self did not have a washer and dryer. It needs to be stated that you have to pay extra to do your laundry.

Great stay!
Our family had an amazing time! The property was clean and the kitchen stocked. The only odd thing was, there were clothes hanging in one of the closets. It seemed like new clothes. As if the person who rented the house before us went shopping and left their new clothes there. Not sure how that was missed. Makes me wonder what gets cleaned, or checked. Anyway, it was quiet and right on the golf course, which my dad LOVED! It was a bit of a drive to Durango, but not too bad. We stopped twice at Honeyville. Must see in my opinion.

Quiet and spacious
The condo is 2 combined units making for lots of space. The location is about 20 minutes from Durango and maybe 10 from purgatory. It’s very quiet and safe. The pool at the lodge is nice. Down sides: it’s dark when the sun goes down. More lighting, especially in the the suite would help. The quality of furnishings, towels, supplies are good, not great but they do a good job of providing what is needed. The view out the kitchen is grass due to the angle of the course. Positive: it has lots of room, quiet, easy check in with hotel amenities down the road a bit, able to play golf (kids are free), no big issues with the condo.

Awesome neighborhood
The property is awesome. Very up to date with graninite countertops and new fixtures and appliances. The only complaint was the drapes need to be updated. We could not pull the drapes closed and when the sun comes up at 5:30 am is dose everyone in the room.

Relaxing and Fun For All!
We had a great time staying in this condo at Tamarron! It met our needs and gave us plenty of space. Plus, Tamarron is simply beautiful! Many fun activities in the surrounding area kept the kids busy. We had to schedule the pool because of the COVID restrictions, but when we had it it was nice break. A dream vacation for sure!

Great family getaway!
We had to change our original vacation plans quickly due to COVID & flying from AZ. We booked this 3 days prior to arriving and it was such a great backup plan! Easy drive from Denver (for 1 family member) and from AZ. It exceeded our expectations from the start. Staff very accommodating and we have a terrific stay!
