Welcome to Darrow’s Pond Retreat, the biggest and most unique rental home in Suncadia!

We designed this estate home from the ground up to be a resort within the resort, including 9 bedrooms *and* a 6-kid bunk room, a chef's kitchen with wine bar, a heated swimming pool, a 20-person hot tub, a separate kiddie pool with splash features, two giant fire pits, a movie theatre style media room, a rec room with pool table, shuffleboard and foosball, a covered porch with gas-powered BBQand industrial space heaters, heated walkways to the hot tub and pool, a garage for at least 2 vehicles, a separate parking pad for 3 vehicles, and a wide circular driveway that allows parking along the side with enough room to still drive around. Did you read all of that right Yep.

Like to cook The home features a fully stocked chef’s kitchen with two Miele dishwashers, a Wolf double-oven gas range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, a walk-in pantry with an additional full-sized refrigerator, a double-faucet sink, a wine bar off the kitchen for cocktail hour, an ice maker, two wine fridges, and place settings for at least two dozen people.

Want to relax and take in the Cascade forest This 8,000 square foot retreat house was built on two large lots that overlook Darrow’s Pond and the 5th hole of The Prospector Golf Course. Four bedrooms feature private decks that take full advantage of the view and provide the perfect place for your morning coffee or that “I’m in-the-office but not really” conference call.

Nine of the ten bedrooms are en-suite with a private bathroom and a King or Queen size bed – we designed the lay-out so there is not a “bad room” in the entire house. The tenth bedroom, a 6-bed bunk room, is across the hall from a giant bathroom. Two of the three bunk beds have Queen beds on the bottom.

If your kids are too young for the 6-bed bunk room, two of the suites include an extra day bed that are perfect for families with young children and the other suites are big enough to accommodate a blow-up mattress (some could easily fit two). One suite also features a loft for big(ger) kids that is accessible only by ladder, but can easily sleep one or two kids who bring a sleeping bag to sleep in their own cool “fort.”

Want your own get-away within the get-away One of the bedrooms is the separate pool house, which features a Queen Murphy bed and its own bathroom with shower. The pool house also has a sink, wine/drink fridge, dishwasher, and an ice maker.

The large heated pool and 20-person hot tub are available year-round* and were designed for fun, fun, and more fun! The entire length of one side of the pool is a submerged “bench” that allows you to sit in the pool while enjoying your favorite adult beverage. Rather work on your tan Then enjoy the entire width of one end of the pool that is about a foot deep and was made for relaxing in lounge chairs *in the water.* Got kids No worries, so do we, which is why we built a separate kiddie pool with water spout features that is located right next to the big pool. (The entire pool and hot tub area is fenced in with a safety latch.)

Not a pool person Need to escape the sun Well then come enjoy the pool house that is just a few steps from the pool and was built to eliminate any need to go back inside the main house. The pool house features its own bathroom with shower, plus everything you need to tend bar poolside: an ice maker, sink, and dishwasher! Don’t feel like walking the 50 feet back into the main house to sleep Or want your own private cabin No sweat – the pool house (the ninth bedroom) includes a Murphy bed!!

Whether you are looking for a quiet family get away, a corporate retreat, a family reunion, a home to host your wedding party, a guys or girls weekend, or an epic anniversary or birthday bash, this retreat was created to shatter your expectations. Ditch the crowds and hang out at your own private resort!! Look at the photos for the floor plan of each level of the home (they are the last few photos as you scroll through).

The location of this 10-bedroom retreat cannot get much better. It is conveniently located in the heart of Suncadia and is just minutes by car from Suncadia’s many offerings (not that you’ll need them):

One minute to Battista Park
Three minutes to Swiftwater Cellars
Three minutes to Prospector Golf Course Club House
Three minutes to Rope Rider Golf Course Club House
Three minutes to The Lodge at Suncadia

Details on the Heated Pool, Hot Tub, and Kiddie Pool:

The large outdoor pool is open and heated year round.

For safety and the sanity of their parents, the kiddie pool is open between May 1st and October 14th.

The 20-person hot tub is open year-round and is kept at a balmy 103 degrees, free-of-charge.

Remember the paved walkway to the hot tub, pool, and 7-foot fire pit is heated, so you’ll be like the post office: neither rain nor snow will keep you away!

Events must be pre-approved and an added site fee is applicable. Failure will result in fines up to $10,000.

    Outstanding home and outside spaces. Beautifully accommodated my family (4 generations, 22 adults, 11 kids, ages 1.5 to 79). All bedrooms were spacious with private en suite baths. We enjoyed every inch of it!

    Overall, our 21-person group had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property and we would be happy to rent it out again.Pros1) The property was very clean upon our arrival2) The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessary cooking implements, and there was more than enough crockery to support our large group. There are two fridges, one in the pantry, that had enough storage to feed us for our 4-night stay3) The group had a great time with the miscellaneous activities (cornhole, arcade games, table tennis, poker table)4) The integrated Sonos sound system in the ceilings proved to be quite popular with our group5) We had a pretty good buffer between our neighbors, we never heard anything from themConOne major con was the hot tub temperature and the communication around this, especially since this is in the headline of this listing.We arrived Thursday night and tested the hot tub temperature, which was cold. The manager was messaged on VRBO and we were told the next morning that someone would be sent out to take a look at it. I had to follow up in the afternoon for an update and they said that actually they changed the temperature remotely (I did not receive a follow up message that they had already done this). The temperature throughout Friday was more tepid than hot since I imagine it takes a while to warm up. I had to message again on Saturday as the tub got cold again and only on Sunday did the temp rise to what is a proper hot tub temperature.

    The house is beautifully equipped for people of all ages. There is plenty to do. Beautiful outdoor area, loved watching the golfers try to go over the water on the 5th hole, and abundance of outdoor seating. The downstairs play area was fabulous as was the media room. There was plenty of utensils and dishes and kitchen equipment. However, we could not lock the front and back doors with the key when we left. A lightbulb was out in the kitchen. But, all in all, it was a fantastic place for my 85th birthday celebration.

    A beautiful, large property full of all kinds of things for people of every age to enjoy. We had a family reunion with ages from 2-75 and it was comfortable for all of us. It was a perfect week!

    Many positive points: tons of room space, the pool and hot tub great, and the game room & pool table were fun. And the kitchen had all the tools to cook for 20 folks daily. Various notes: - sound carries, especially to the rooms behind the kitchen. - there’s a lot of tech (connected speakers and theater especially) that we had issues connecting and controlling. Overall, the whole property is above and beyond, great trip.

    We had an amazing time with a group couple friends celebrating my wife's 50'th birthday. The heated pool and hot tub as well as the heated outdoor spaces were amazing even with the cold temperatures. the kitchen was fully equipped with all we needed. the home is designed for entertaining and plenty of room to spread out both inside and out. We will be back again for sure.

    This was our second stay at darrows pond and it’s hard to believe it was even better the second time around. They have added an amazing game room in the basement with plenty to keep everyone entertained! The movie theater seating was also a hit for the kids. The highlight is always the enormous hot tub and heated pool with is magical with the snow. The house is well stocked and perfectly maintained. An added bonus is extremely comfortable beds and bedding. We will be back!
