Welcome to the historic Cold Springs Ranch!

Here’s a short video about our property: https://youtu.be/Ju6TS53gxtM

Here is a link to our virtual walk-through: https://my.matterport.com/show/ m=cLqRBFt4UF6

This extraordinary estate sits on 20 acres at just over 7,500’ elevation, and is rich in Colorado history. The property used to be a stagecoach stop for those en route to higher elevations and the historic barn is over 100 years old. This house is everythingyou would want in a Colorado mountain rental yet close to all amenities. (Seriously, you won’t believe the convenience of the location!)

We have a county-issued short-term rental permit that allows us to host UP TO 10 GUESTS TOTAL. Although the property looks like it could accommodate more, we are careful to honor the imposed cap. Because of this, we have the house priced well for the number of guests it holds and the amenities it offers!

Our minimum booking age is 30. For adult only groups, the majority of the group must be 30 or older. When inquiring or making a booking request, please include answers to the following questions to help us determine if this home is a good fit for your group:

-Your age and if you are an all-adult group, the average age of your group members.
-The maximum number of adults and kids that you will have (totaling no more than 10; even if you don't yet have final confirmations).
-A little bit about the purpose of your visit to CO. What brings you out, what are some of the activities planned

Details on the Ranch:
• Five large master suite bedrooms; all have at least a king or queen bed.
• Four of the ensuite bathrooms feature double vanities and beautiful, walk-in showers (the fifth ensuite bath on the lower level has a single vanity).
• Two bonus sleeping rooms, one with a queen and one with a king bed.
• 7 total bathrooms.
• 9,200 sf with newly renovated spaces.
• Cascading indoor waterfall greets you as you enter the house.
• Chef’s Kitchen including coffee station, two ovens, two refrigerator/freezers, granite island, prep area and spacious pantry.
• Open sitting area and Dining Room with double sliders to the outdoor patio. Sit five at the bar areas, five at the kitchen table, or your entire group at the formal dining table. Additional seating available outside on the patio area and in the Pavilion.
• One of the upstairs master suites has a beautiful gas fireplace.
• Two large outdoor patio and deck areas off main and upper floors.
• Two oversized double door garage bays for parking four cars.
• Two full-size couches and two gas fire pits in the outdoor Pavilion area.
• Forced air heat throughout the house.
• Central A/C that services the entire house (summers can get hot in the mountains; most homes do not offer this).
• Gas fireplace with seating area near the entrance has become a favorite gathering area with our guests.
• Portable medical grade oxygen concentrator and oximeter monitor available to guests.
• Sonos speakers located throughout the home.
• 20-acre+ space all around.

This home has 2 Upper Level king Master Suites, 2 Main Floor king Master Suites, and a Lower Level queen bedroom--all with ensuite baths! We also offer two additional sleeping spaces as outlined below. Feel free to view the house through our virtual tour.

Christmas and New Year's are two separate reservation blocks. Christmas dates can be reserved between December 20th and 27th, New Year's reservations can be reserved between December 28th and January 5th. In the summer months, we ask that check-in dates are earlier in the week, preferably a Monday or a Tuesday.

Seasonal outdoor activities include: corn hole, ladder ball, bocce ball, horseshoes and frisbee golf. Indoor activities include: shuffleboard, billiards, foosball, ping pong and a sauna. There is an outdoor hot tub right outside the sauna area. LOTS to do and tons of space for activities.

In the warmer months kids can enjoy our slide, tire swing and playhouse which includes a comfy swing and books. We also have a toy chest in the lower level of the property with lots of toys, and two DVD players with a wide selection of children's DVDs.

This home is located in the mountains and although we are vigilant with having the driveway plowed in the wintertime, we highly recommend 4-wheel drive vehicles. The roads are easy to navigate in the summertime, no special vehicle needed.

Smoking outside only and because we have a family member who has severe dog allergies, we have a firm no pets rule.

Blue Sky, 37 miles from Loveland Ski Area, 43 miles from Denver International Airport (DEN), 46 miles from Winter Park, 53 miles from Keystone, 58 miles from Copper Mountain, and 62 miles from Breckenridge.

    We stayed for the week of Thanksgiving and had an incredible stay. The house is amazing with every possible amenity you could imagine. I would say a true test of a kitchen is how well is can support Thanksgiving dinner preparation and this kitchen did not disappoint! Dealing with Cristine was a breeze. She was transparent and communicative upon booking and throughout our stay. Any minor issues were quickly resolved and we couldn't have asked for anything better. Everyone in our party was comfortable in their surroundings, found plenty to keep them entertained and the home and surrounding property were truly and wonder. I would highly recommend this property and we are already looking forward to our next stay!

    Our project team needed a quiet and comfortable place to stay and work together on a critical project, and Cold Spring Ranch was perfect. There was enough room for everyone to have their own space while still being able to gather conveniently to collaborate, and then unwind after full days of work. The home was super clean, thoughtfully designed and decorated, and the setting was beautiful! Our host was consistently prompt and personable in all of her communications, making the whole experience 5 stars. We really could not have picked a better place to achieve what we set out to do. Our experience exceeded all expectations. Members of our team repeatedly commented on how amazing the place was (inside and out), and we look forward to our next opportunity to return.

    Our family had a wonderful time at the Ranch. The house and property was amazing and far exceeded our expectations. Cristine is the best host we have ever experienced. We had an minor issue with one of the ovens her dad Mike was there within a half hour. We had Mike over for dinner twice we so enjoyed him. We will definitely stay here again. This was the best VRBO property we have ever booked. 1000 stars would not be enough to rate this property.

    If there was a 100-star rating, that would have easily been our choice. We lack the superlatives to adequately describe how fantastic this gorgeous property is. Often in online reviews, the people tell you what activities they did in the area where the home was located. Well, we never left the property once during our stay.The house is breathtaking in two remarkable ways. (1) When you are inside and look out, the gorgeous Colorado scenery is a testament to the glory of God's creation (2) When you are inside and look around, the spectacular surroundings of luxuriously comfortable furnishings with every accoutrement imaginable both stuns and delights you.There were six of us - women who share a special bond of faith and friendship - and we found ourselves exploring the home and property with speechless with excitement (a real paradox!) as we took in the smallest details of graceful elegance and the widest expanse of panorama vistas. Every guest need and comfort has been meticulously anticipated. Every corner of this prodigious home was spotlessly clean, thoughtfully equipped, and beautifully decorated. Nothing was missed; everything was supplied.What made our stay even more meaningful was the gracious, enthusiastic, and personal treatment we received from both Cristine (property manager/Mike's daughter) and Mike (owner). Their countenance, kindness, and communication were superb. Next time, we will stay longer and enjoy this slice of heaven on earth

    We had a great time at this property! This house has everything you need to accommodate your family in a very nicely appointed huge property with tons of space. We met the owner who was very friendly and accommodating. The property has an awesome game room with ping pong, shuffle board and billiards. There is also a hot tub and a sauna which we also enjoyed.This property is set on a multi acre lot which had a frisbee golf course on it which my teenage kids and my wife and I had a great time playing.We also saw lots of wildlife from deer to a herd of elk! It’s close to Red Rocks amphitheater and the expressway but has great views of the mountains and you feel like you’re far away from the city but everything is a short drive away.This property is phenomenal and the host is very friendly and answers any questions quickly.Would definitely stay here again!

    From start to finish; from initial contact to post-stay hellos, everything was above and beyond expectations. I rarely bother to review things because I think the new expectation that anything less than 5 stars is bad is terrible for all-involved. This experience really was 5-star . The photos don't do it justice, and I can't say enough good things about the fine people that own, manage, and maintain this magnificent property. If you love the mountains, and you're looking for an incredible property for family and friends to all enjoy; look no further. I know we'll be back.

    The absolute best place I've stayed in Colorado. The house is gorgeous and has everything you would ever need for your stay. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful. We were able to easily venture out to the ski resort, Denver, Golden and Boulder because the house is conveniently located with direct access to I-70. But be careful about how much you plan, because once you are at the house, you won't want to leave! If you are coming to the Denver area for any reason, this place will not disappoint! Thank you, thank you to the host and their team for making our stay for my wife's 50th birthday a memorable one for all of us! We will definitely be coming back.

    I convinced a small group of my best friends to fly across the country for our annual boys trip (upper-30s aged group). I was a little worried if this house was gonna be too good to be true, because I've had a bad experience once before with a too-good-to-be-true listing... Well this house was even better than they made it out to be! Lots of room for different activities. Everyone had a comfortable bedroom to stay in. The house was clean and well stocked, and everything worked well. We got an unexpected snowstorm and were confined to staying inside the house for part of the trip, and it was so fun and comfortable in there. My only regret is I just wish we got to really see and play on the little disc golf course they have set up on the property, which was covered in snow which came in right before our stay. Thanks so much, Cristine and Mike, for clearly putting a lot of though and effort into making the house great. Hope I get to come back and stay there again sometime!

    We had a group of friends gather at the Ranch for a long weekend getaway and it was everything we had hoped for and much, much more. There is a small family of deer that seem to live near the property.--we looked out the large picture window at the front of the house and they were right there--it was almost unreal! This property is so unique in that it appeals to ALL age groups. There is a playhouse and play area for younger kids, tons of activities for older kids/adults (ping pong, shuffleboard, foosball and pool inside the house and a hot tub, horseshoes and frisbee golf. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A VACATION HOME WITH A 5-ACRE DISC GOLF COURSE, ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!) We visited in October when the leaves were changing and it was as beautiful as you can imagine. We had great conversations at the fire pit at night and then got to enjoy a clear sky full of stars from the hot tub. It really doesn't get any better than this. My family has traveled the world and stayed at some amazing short-term rentals but there's something special and unique about Cold Springs Ranch. If you're trying to decide if this is the house for you and your dates are available, BOOK IT NOW! I promise, you won't be disappointed. The team that takes care of this home is meticulous in making sure the house is spotless and that everything is functioning like it should. This was the perfect location for day trips to the mountains and downtown Denver. This was a dream vacation for all of us and we will be back!
