Unexpected Delights
Great location at >9000’ elevation with views galore from the living room. Well stocked kitchen and baths. Hot tub was wonderful after a day of hiking. Extra bonus points for a visit from a huge bull moose who was as curious about us as we were of him.He came right up to the window. He stayed in the area the next day as I waked to see him munching on grass outside my bedroom window.

LOVED the house and location! Excellent communication and very clean!
The house was amazing and super clean. We absolutely loved it. When we were hit with a surprise snow storm both the management company and owners were very communicative and ensured we had everything we needed to be safe and enjoy our stay. We can't wait to go back next year! Perfect for a family or for a couples adventure. Highly recommend this property. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and other cooking tools and the hot tub was perfect for relaxing while watching it snow!

This home was exactly the relaxing getaway we were hoping for. The home is inviting and comfortable and the views are amazing! The check in process was easy and Kim, the property manager was very helpful! The home was easy to access, in a lovely mountain neighborhood, with plenty of seclusion.

Beautiful Mountain View
Beautiful house in the mountains. Spacious, clean, had everything we needed. Beds super comfortable and clear instructions on how to run hot tub, appliances etc. Saw bobcat tracks outside every morning and came back to find the gang of five (wild turkeys) staring at us through the living room windows.

Stay here!
Our stay was good, it's a beautiful property. People should be aware that they are at 9,460 feet elevation, this could definitely be a problem or even dangerous for some. Otherwise the house is fabulous and the property management was extremely accommodating and fast with communications. Would stay again!
