Cascade Village Resort Hotel

Gorgeous property and great location. Family enjoyed train ride in Durango, horseback riding in Ouray, and shopping in Silverton. Residence are kind and property management is attentive and helpful.

Until Purgatory does something about #357's temperature during the summer time, please do not waste your money. We would have been far more comfortable in a tent. A tent keeps out the mosquitoes and cools off at night instantly. This condo was warm in the night even with the screen-less balcony door wide open with a fan blowing *enter mosquitoes and cigarette smoke all night*. I understand they didn't design these places with summers in mind, but come on. A $300 portable AC unit would do the trick. We ended up paying about $250/night for this place. Complete rip off. Oh and some outlets and light bulbs didn't work. Reviews from at least a year about on booking.com say the same thing. Hasn't been fixed. Whatever entity is managing this property is getting away with a borderline scam. Purgatory needs to stop booking this place. Especially during the summer.

We rented Unit 60 from Vacation Rental Collective. We stayed the first week of June, 2022. The unit is a two story condo with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Parking is at a lower level, so there are a lot of stairs involved. The back of the unit (ground level) was accessible, temporarily, for unloading luggage and groceries. The unit is less than 2 miles from Purgatory Ski Resort. It’s about 30 miles from Durango, so purchase at least a day or two’s worth of food for your stay on your way through town. Silverton has a local grocery store that keeps a good selection of food that’s perfect for things you may have forgotten. The unit was clean and stocked with at least a few things. You’ll need to bring/buy things like toilet paper and paper towels, if you’re staying longer than a few days. The beds were too firm for the majority of us. There were extra blankets in the unit that we put on the bed in the downstairs bedroom to help soften it. Be aware that the unit IS NOT air conditioned. The only time it was uncomfortably warm was at night, for those in the upstairs master bedroom. We requested an extra fan, which helped. I wish we had requested it sooner! The coffee pot and one of the fans quit working while we were there. We communicated with the VRC staff via email and they delivered new ones to us the same day. Their customer service was great. The pool is an indoor pool and the grandkids had a great time swimming there. Our only complaint about the pool area is that the ventilation in the pool area wasn’t great and the chlorine smell was extremely strong. The view from the balconies was amazing with Engineer Mountain being just to the left. Overall, we had a great experience and wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.
