Lakefront Cabin on Vallecito w/ Views & Marina

A true lakefront escape, Water’s Edge Cabin sits right on the shores of Lake Vallecito—perfectly placed between Durango and Bayfield and just a short walk to the marina. Wake up to panoramic water views, sip coffee on the deck, and spend your days playing on the lake.

Perched above the shoreline, the cabin offers direct access for fishing, canoeing, and kayaking, plus multiple decks for grilling, lounging, and soaking in the mountain air. Inside, every room frames the lake, creating a calm, cozy backdrop for your stay. The home features a full kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a relaxed open living/dining area with a Smart TV and an electric fireplace area - ideal for gathering after a day outdoors.

Think slow mornings, sunset dinners on the deck, and star‑filled nights—this is Colorado lake life at its best.
