At Recodo Del Rio, we take pride in fostering a vibrant, welcoming community that reflects the unique charm of Durango, Colorado. As the Homeowners Association (HOA) for this serene townhome complex of 46 units, our mission is to maintain the beauty, functionality, and value of our shared spaces while cultivating a sense of belonging for all residents. Whether you’re a long-term homeowner, a seasonal resident, or new to our community, we’re here to ensure that Recodo Del Rio remains a place you’re proud to call home.
Our Commitment to Community
Established in 1996, the Recodo Del Rio Owners Association is dedicated to preserving the Southwestern aesthetic and high-quality living standards that define our complex. Nestled at the entrance to the breathtaking Animas Valley, our community offers a peaceful retreat just minutes from downtown Durango and a short drive from Purgatory Resort. Our goal is to balance the tranquility of our location with the convenience of modern amenities, creating an ideal environment for residents to thrive.
Managed by Durango Property Management, our HOA oversees the upkeep of shared spaces and exterior maintenance, allowing you to focus on enjoying the lifestyle that drew you to Recodo Del Rio. We maintain three small common green areas, perfect for relaxing or connecting with neighbors, and ensure that roads, walkways, and landscaping are kept in top condition year-round. From snow removal in winter to irrigation in summer, we handle the details so you can spend your time exploring the Animas River, skiing at Purgatory, or strolling through Durango’s historic downtown.
What Your HOA Does for You
Your HOA dues are an investment in the longevity and appeal of our community. These funds cover a range of essential services, including:
- Trash and Recycling: Convenient waste management to keep our complex clean and sustainable.
- Water for Common Areas: Irrigation to maintain our green spaces and landscaping.
- Road Maintenance and Snow Removal: Safe, accessible pathways and parking areas, no matter the season.
- Exterior Building Maintenance: Upkeep of stucco exteriors and shared structures to preserve our Southwestern architectural style.
- Insurance for Common Areas: Coverage for shared spaces, ensuring peace of mind for all residents.
While the HOA manages these exterior responsibilities, individual owners are responsible for interior maintenance, personal liability, contents insurance, and the upkeep of doors and windows. This balance allows us to maintain a cohesive community while giving you the freedom to personalize your home.
