Summary:
Welcome to the new Georgetown, Colorado! The 45-minute drive from Denver will take you back in time and far from your ordinary day-to-day doldrums. Our sparkling new lakefront town home is nestled at the base of Guanella Pass, one of the Rockies’ most beautiful destinations. With three bedrooms, there is room for everyone in this lovely mountain escape. For the best in hiking, skiing, wildlife, local culture and history, the Rocky Mountains are calling and you must go!
The Space:
Explore the Rockies from your new favorite home base at popular Bighorn Crossing! Two stories, three bedrooms and two and half bathrooms all add up to a gem of the townhome that’s both comfy and roomy. Whether you’re a Colorado greenhorn, a repeat visitor or a Denver local looking to breathe free for the weekend, there’s never a bad time to enjoy the Centennial State’s 300 days of sunshine. Check out our neighbor, Cabin Creek Brewing, for a taste of Colorado's famous golden nectar.
Shred at Arapahoe Basin, Keystone or Loveland Ski Area, all within easy reach. Step back in time on the Georgetown Loop Railroad. And hiking is literally on your doorstep -- just lace up your boots and head outside for a relaxing stroll. Keep an eye out for a variety of wildlife, including Georgetown’s famous bighorn sheep.
One thing our guests love about the home is the awesome layout. The great room, one of the guest bedrooms, a half bath as well as the kitchen and breakfast bar are all on the main floor. This is so perfect for all groups, but especially those travelling with people who have trouble with stairs! The first-floor bedroom is playfully decked out with rustic and stylish bunk beds. Of course this is a great option for those traveling with kids, but to be honest they’re just as big a hit with our adult guests! The floors are beautiful and everything is brand new in this mountain oasis.
The kitchen will exceed your expectations: full of modern appliances, with plenty of counter space and everything you need to whip up a meal or snack. Brew up your morning cup and partake in the popular Colorado pastime of waking up with coffee, birds and wildlife. Everything is fully stocked for your convenience.
Weather keeping you inside? The variety of comfy lounging spots are perfect for relaxing, snuggling and enjoying the peace and quiet. And if you’re looking to unplug, the lovely view is also visible from the couches. One of two guest bedrooms is also downstairs.
Head upstairs to find the master bedroom and the second guest bedroom. We are huge fans of upstairs bedrooms in general, but these are especially pleasant and well appointed. The master has a queen bed outfitted with luxury linens. The master bath delivers some nice upgrades like a walk-in shower and his-and-her sinks. Prepare for a day of adventure while gazing out the window at Georgetown’s natural splendor. Also upstairs you’ll find a guest bedroom with another queen bed. The full guest bathroom is a necessity for group and family travel.
Stay for the night, the week, or longer! We love to accommodate extended stays. This space is Colorado personified and distilled into one luxurious, cute package with all the bells and whistles. Book with confidence today!

The Neighborhood:
Originally a mining town in the 1800s, Georgetown was named after George Griffith. Looming over Georgetown, Griffith Mountain was named after George’s brother, Davis. Griffith Mountain tops out at 11,558 feet, and you can sign the climber’s log once you make it to the top. If you want to conquer one of Colorado’s legendary fourteeners, just drive down to Guanella Pass. At 14,065 feet above sea level, Mount Bierstadt will offer you the view of a lifetime. Backcountry ponds, streams, snowshoeing, and even skiing at the long-closed Geneva Basin are all waiting for you just up over the hill. If you want to stay within the civilized confines of Georgetown, the Georgetown Loop Railroad, shopping, art galleries, walking tours, fishing, mine tours, and fine dining are all within easy reach.
