Amazing Place close to activities but private
The house is very spacious with a lot of amenities. Our host Todd was amazing...very accommodating and was always checking in to see if we needed anything. The house is located in good proximity to Buena Vista, Fairplay, and loads of hiking trails. Very convenient, yet private with great views. Thank you so much Todd for a wonderful weekend!

Great Locations and Great House!
We were only here for a couple days but it was exactly what we needed. We sauna'd, worked remotely for a few hours, watched some movies, and relaxed. The views were stunning and the location was quiet. Just perfect

Beautiful Location
Our family had such a great week at this beautiful mountain house! It was nice and clean, and we loved the view and pool table in the basement. Although the roads leading up to the house weren’t in good enough condition to drive to different trailheads every day, we enjoyed spending more time at the cabin and walking along the road. This is a great house for a relaxing mountain vacation!
