Property Update April 2026

We wanted to give future guests a heads up on some exciting updates to this home. We just wrapped up a major round of upgrades including a brand new high-capacity boiler and 80-gallon hot water heater, so heat and hot water are no longer something you'll ever have to think twice about here. Any prior electrical concerns have also been fully taken care of by licensed professionals. This home has a long history of 5-star stays and we made these investments to make sure every guest who walks through the door has that same great experience. You're in good hands here.

    We had our yearly family vacation at this home. The house itself is amazing and wonderful. So peaceful and everything you would hope for in a mountain home. The views are incredible. Close to hiking trails. And if you are looking for a location to take in almost all of Colorado this house gives you a great location to travel north (RMNP), south (GSDNP & Royal Gorge), east (Colorado Springs, Pikes Peak & Manitou Incline), and west (Black Canyon of the Gunnison and Mesa Verde NP). We took in the state and this home’s location provided a great “home base”. The house itself was so comfortable and inviting. We grilled burgers, sat on the deck and absolutely loved hanging out in the living room in the comfortable furniture while taking in the incredible views. We saw moose while hiking. Chipmunks scurrying around the home and the sounds of the birds in the trees was so relaxing. It was hard to leave such a beautiful home where so many great memories were made. From booking to checkout the entire experience was wonderful. This is a great team to work with. We hope to go back and stay again.

    This was a great home for our family vacation. Location was just what we wanted and our family all said they would stay again in a heartbeat! Property manager was easy to communicate with and responsive. Check-out instructions were not complicated like other places we have stayed before. Loved it!

    We had a large group of 9 staying for a week, and had the options of gathering as a large group in the upstairs and downstairs living areas, dining room, and back deck; or retreating to our separate spaces in the bedrooms when needed. Being a foodie and cook for this large group I truly appreciated the fully stocked kitchen! Everyone in our group could not get over the view from the huge peaks to the beautiful Aspens surrounding to the smallest mountain flowers. Seating enough for a large group on the back deck to enjoy. Home was very clean and in great condition. Garage area was great for multiple cars to park. Loved the huge windows in living room and the comfortable furniture. Our kiddos enjoyed the stocked downstairs with games and puzzles. It was nice to be a very short distance to welcoming small towns Alma and Fairplay, and a short jaunt to Breckinridge. Recommend a visit to Al-Mart, Bristlecone bakery, and Kiki's fruit stand in Alma and in Fairplay for groceries I recommend Prather's Market, and whether you're a history buff or not you must see South Park City museum. A meal must stop is Casa Sanchez in Fairplay, and Empire Burger in Breckinridge. For those that love outdoors and hiking we recommend Hoosier Ridge Loop Trail and Blue Lake Falls. All in all this was a beautiful home with an amazing view that has many things to do and see very nearby. I had no complaints, but when I did have a question about a door lock I was responded to immediately!

    The house was clean, and comfortable. From the upstairs living room/dining room that focused on the view and no TV to distract you. To supplying is with soap/shampoo, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook! Loved this house and wanted to stay longer. Great find!

    Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The property was spacious with such an amazing view! A four-wheel drive is definitely necessary to get to the property as my rental car didn't make it up the mountain, but we were able to park it at the visitor center nearby. Don't think twice about this property - it was the best place to spend time with friends!

    The house was a perfect size with the right number of bedrooms for our group of adults. The view is amazing! Check in and check out were so easy and communication with the property manager was prompt and always helpful. We will stay here again!
