Description

About this space
High above the town of Palisade, nestled in the foothills of the Grand Mesa, is the Rapid Creek Retreat. Surrounded by untouched public land you will experience the true gift of Colorado.
From the house’s mountain perch the views of the big sky can be enjoyed from sunrise to sunset and beyond for magical star gazing.
We planned for this home to be ours, every detail of this home was built with intent and love.
The feeling here is truly special.
We hope you enjoy it.

Sincerely,
The Busch’s
The space
This is a brand new house. Two main bedrooms and a bunk room. The bathroom has a beautiful large shower. There is a great patio that overlooks thousands of acres of untouched mountain. It’s all yours.
Guest access
All yours.
Other things to note
The driveway can be an adventure for some. It is a mountain road - a real Colorado experience. Any reasonable vehicle will make it up and down just fine but some folks may want to bring a change of underwear . If that 1950s truck in the photo didn’t have a problem then your vehicle won’t either.
It’s not required, but if you have 4x4 please use it and also go slow to keep the road in good shape.
***During the winter months the road may become impassable and you may have to hike up the road to get to the house. This will be our first winter with the property and we are still sorting out the snow/snow removal situation.***

This is an absolutely stunning home in a fantastic location and conveniently located to town, many hiking trails, and to Powderhorn. The home was stocked with the main essentials for cooking/baking and was beautifully decorated. The morning sunrises and star gazing at night are unremarkable. We highly recommend and looking forward to visiting again.

Amazing views!! So quiet and peaceful yet still so close to the city. The views of the stars at night were amazing. I’d love to stay here again.
