Gumo's take

Purgatory Resort in Durango is a family-friendly, four-season destination known for its ski-in/ski-out convenience, diverse terrain for all skill levels, and year-round activities. It is particularly well-suited for families, intermediate skiers, and those seeking a less crowded alternative to major Colorado resorts. While the on-site lodging options offer proximity to the slopes and amenities like pools and hot tubs, some guests have noted inconsistencies in room quality and service, especially during off-peak seasons.
