Antlers on the creek bed and breakfast is absolutely amazing! We stayed here on our vacation to Durango. It's a short drive out of town, and in fact many locals do not know about it. It's a large house on a beautiful property. Susan, the inn keeper thought of every last detail to make our stay was a memorable one. Let's start with breakfast, homemade granola with yogurt and fresh fruit, the first day our first course consisted of kiwi and watermelon with a homemade scone. Main course was French toast with fig jam, havarti cheese, ham, topped with a fried egg with grilled asparagus on the side. Second day: first course was grilled pineapple with frozen yogurt and a homemade hazelnut biscotti, main course: yeast waffles with homemade fruit compote and three slices of thick cut delicious bacon. Needless to say, this was a hearty, delicious breakfast that lasted well into the afternoon.
In addition to a fabulous breakfast, there are cookies in the afternoon and a happy hour where they serve beer, or margaritas and an appetizer. The first day there was a spinach dip and the second some crackers and spreadable cheese options. Both very tasty.
Then there was the room, extremely comfortable bedding, with nice pillows. My husband and I travel with our pillows, as we have a difficult time with other pillows, however we did not need to use our own, and in fact, even purchased a special boomerang shaped pillow from her. Room was spacious with a nice shower, nice bath towels and robes. Because there is a hot tub in the property, the room was also stocked with beach towels.
A few nice details included: a basket with toiletries including toothbrushes, toothpaste, q tips, sunscreen, and make up remover wipes, in case you forget something. Also the showers are stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Lastly, the day of our departure, Susan made us up a road bag which had bottled waters and cookies for my entire family! She also knew we were heading to Mesa verde national park and provided a map for us.
So many nice touches and friendly folks at this B & B, it our favorite part of our vacation. I truly can't say enough about it.
Thank you Susan for the lovely time!
