About Property

Discover the ultimate peaceful Colorado retreat at Camp Demarest, a newly remodeled home in Hesperus perfectly situated for those seeking adventure and relaxation. This unique property blends mid-century style with a rich legacy, having once served as a stagecoach stop along the historic Spanish Trail. Guests are invited to immerse themselves in the regional character of the space, featuring storytelling nods to western author Louis L’Amour and the early days of Southwest tourism.

Designed for comfort and connection, the home features 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, accommodating up to 8 guests. The sleeping arrangements are thoughtfully curated to suit families and groups: the private master suite offers a king bed, a dedicated workspace, and a walk-in closet with direct backyard access. Additional rooms include a plush queen bed, a full-over-queen bunk, and a separate twin bunk room. The master suite and a front bedroom both provide convenient access to the home's two bathrooms, one of which includes a tub/shower combination.

Inside, the bright, open living area is anchored by a cozy electric fireplace and a smart TV, while the fully equipped kitchen flows into a spacious dining area that seats eight. For those traveling with little ones, the home is well-prepared with a high chair, pack-n-play, children's books, and toys.

Outside, the property truly shines with a spacious backyard featuring a newly added hot tub, a gas fire table, and a gazebo for outdoor dining. Guests can enjoy a variety of lawn games including horseshoes, cornhole, frisbee, and badminton/volleyball, or explore a fun scavenger hunt of hidden surprises. The home is located just a short stroll from the La Plata River, where you can spend your days fishing or picnicking among the cottonwood trees.

Camp Demarest is ideally located for exploring Southwest Colorado. You are just 20 minutes from downtown Durango, 26 minutes from the ancient cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde National Park, and 50 minutes from Purgatory Ski Resort.
