“Cottonwood is an amazing place and our Senior loves it! The facility is clean and well cared for. The staff, nurses, physical therapists, kitchen crew, etc. are all awesome! They are attentive, caring and friendly.”
“I’ve been so impressed with the team at Durango Health and Rehab. The building is a little older but they have kept it up very well! It’s clean with spacious rooms, but I think the best thing about it is the staff there. They have some team members that have been there for more than 20 years!”

About these figures
Computed on October 23, 2026 from the 23 communities listed in Durango, 229 public family reviews on Google, Yelp and MyLivingChoice, state licensing records and, for nursing homes, CMS Care Compare. The best-rated list ranks communities by average family rating weighted by how many families have reviewed each one, so a 4.9 from three reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from two hundred. No community pays to appear in the best-rated list or in these figures; sponsored and partner listings in the directory results are marked as such. Figures refresh as listings and reviews change.
