Classic Log Cabin with Private Hot Tub & Rustic Mountain Comfort

Bear Hollow Cabin

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This rustic log cabin features a private hot tub and gas fireplace in a wooded locale.

Located three miles from Purgatory Mountain, the home is close to both the slopes and Electra Lake, and offers privacy and relaxation. Views of the Hermosa Cliffs greet you from the front balcony, while the enormous back deck is surrounded by pines.

The interior of the home is classic log-cabin style. Cozy up on the couches to watch cable TV, or to hear the fire crackle in the woodburning stove. Free WiFi access is also provided if you need to catch up on social media.

The kitchen is fully equipped with the essentials to create a home-cooked meal, and a dining table with fold-out leafs provides a space for dinner as a group. For warmer months, a gas grill is available on the wraparound deck for your use. The whole family can easily gather on the deck to take in the surrounding alpine scene, then unwind in the hot tub under the timber pergola.

When evening falls, do some stargazing from the deck or lounge inside. If your group can't agree on what to watch, make good use of the second living room, located downstairs, that offers another TV and a gas stove for keeping warm.

This three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home sleeps up to eight. Two bedrooms each have a queen bed, while the third bedroom has two twins. There is a double sofabed in the living room if extra sleeping space is needed. The home also has a private washer/dryer for convenience.

Multiple lakes are nearby to the home for boating and fishing in summer. Electra Lake is a great place to hike, as is the area just outside the door of the home. Vallecito Lake offers ATV and snowmobile rentals. Visit Durango town for shopping and dining, or Purgatory Resort for the full spectrum of winter activities - skiing, snowboarding, snowbiking, cross-country, and dog sledding are all possible. Summer brings the Music in the Mountains classical music festival to Purgatory, while winter brings Demo Days and holiday festivals.

Come enjoy all Durango has to offer in this classic Rocky Mountain log cabin home!

Purgatory
A little gem very close to Purgatory Mtn. Perfect for our college reunion. True log cabin felt like home. New hot tub was a plus after long days of skiing. Only knock, the coffee pot could use upgrading (add a Keurig) and some new pots and pans would be helpful. Would definitely return.

Do not recommend
We arrived to the property around 530 pm in December... it was dark! There were no outside lights on to make getting into the lockbox easier. Once we were in, there were several additional rules that were never mentioned in the listing. I wouldn't have rented this specific property if these additional rules were previously mentioned. The house was structurally gorgeous but, that was soon overtaken by the musty/mildew smell, layers of dust, cobwebs, Black widow looking spiders, dirty dishes, sandpaper for toilet paper, items from previous renters left on the floor, etc... I didn't check the reviews until after we came into these conditions and it's a lesson I have learned the hard way. I see many have left similar reviews on the lack of cleanliness and the responses are all the same, "Our Housekeepers have 'upped their cleaning 'game'". Total BS!!! The amount of dust and mustyness had our allergies flared so much that we almost spent our 2nd night in a hotel. We were very quick at checking out and thankful to be done with this property I spent a lot of money for this property and the sheer yuck of this place disgusts me! Don't bother clicking on the strict Covid cleaning protocol because a simple clean wasn't even done! You're expected to drive your trash up the road, which (for what I paid) I would think trash service is included?!? They have a wood burning stove with cut wood everywhere... yet, signs/notes stating you must provide your own wood?!? All in all, I will NEVER rent through Vrbo or Vacasa ever again! Highly disappointed P.s. where can I upload the photos?

It doesn't get much better than this!
Beautiful cabin in an ideal location. We booked Bear Hollow on the spur of the moment when another trip didn't pan out, and we're so glad we did! We looked at a variety of locations near Durango, and this one was perfect. Secluded, set in the forest, but easy access to Durango as well as the mountain towns of Silverton and Ouray. The house is beautifully laid out and could easily host 8 people very comfortably with three baths on three floors. The kitchen is fully appointed, and there wasn't any comfort of home missing. The back deck is spectacular, and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. Nice and clean! The management firm was so nice to work with and appreciative of our earlier than usual check out. This one is definitely on the "come back to" list!

Texans need Air Conditioning . There’s no A/C.
This property was nice. It was in need of a deep clean and dusting. We were charged a cleaning fee, but they (& us) are getting ripped off for sure. This cabin has 3 floors. You enter the cabin on the bottom floor. That’s the coolest area during the Summer. It has a washer/dryer ( they supplied some laundry pods) but I brought detergent, too. This floor has a living area, TV, couch, bedroom with 2 twin beds & a full bath. It smelled very musty upon entering, but I’m a clean freak and I’m sensitive to smell. You remove your shoes at the entrance of the cabin and I love that. Clean freak. We didn’t spend much time on that floor anyway. The smell dissipated as we ascended the staircase. The 2nd level is the main house. There’s a nice deck off the front, large deck off the back with a hot tub. The hot tub jets didn’t all work but it didn’t matter because we didn’t use it much. (However, you are charged a hot tub fee, so be aware. This Vacasa rental agency charged us SO MUCH in fees, then VRBO charged us fees on top of the rent. This is one reason I will never return to any property managed by Vacasa.) I digress. The second floor has a small bedroom with a queen size bed. Right across the hall is a small bathroom with a shower and sink. They supply towels for the hot tub that are not bath towels , which is nice. Nice size living room, 2 couches dining table and a tv in the upper corner of dining room. Spotty internet, but that’s to be expected. Kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, dishes, utensils etc…. We didn’t use any of that except to heat leftovers or eat cereal for breakfast. There were some bugs, flies, spiders and gnats but again, you’re in the woods. It comes with the territory. The 3rd floor is really a loft with a Queen sized bed and half bath, I think. There were just two of us so we stayed on the 2nd floor most of the time. They ask you to load and start the dishwasher before you leave and starting a load of towels is optional, but welcomed. I did the towels and the dishes, of course. In that regard, I think I miss staying at a hotel with maid service . It is vacation after all. It’s a beautiful property. The owners are very gracious to open their home. I would definitely get a different managing company. There are way too many “fees”. I felt hoodwinked. I’d rather just pay more in rent than be superfluous fees. Bottom line is the home is very peaceful nice, and is a great location. I won’t return to any rental with Vacasa.

Great Cabin in the Durango AREA
We loved our Cabin and the hot tub. The children especially liked the private bedrooms and baths. This is a must stay if you plan to be in Durango a few days to enjoy all the scenery, rafting rides and sight seeing day trips! I would suggest an easier way to take out the garbage to an on site dumpster with lock because my husband never could find the one they left instructions for. But was a very comfortable and memorable stay in Beach Hollow Cabin!

Spacious and Charming Log Cabin in the Forest
This property is ideal for families looking for a log cabin experience near Durango. It's about 20 minutes north of town in a quiet nook of the San Juan forest. There are three floors, each with a bedroom, a bathroom, and a TV. Two living areas also make for lots of hang out space. Those with little children will probably want to bring baby gates to block off the stairs, although one is already provided. Most importantly, there is a private hot tub for the adults once the kids go to sleep! I highly recommend this property and would consider visiting again.

Beautiful cabin
This cabin is beautiful but is in need of a MAJOR dusting. The wooden beams, door frames, ceiling fans, etc. are covered in dust which in resulted in allergies in several family members. Other than that the hot tub was clean and ran great, the area was beautiful and the house was warm and cozy.
