Towering Pines - Mountain Modern Nederland Retreat

Newly added 2-3 person Sauna! Thoughtfully designed house sits adjacent to National Forest Land affording Hiking, Mountain Biking, Snowshoeing, and XC Skiing all from the front door. Over 1600 sq. ft. of usable space, amazing mountain views, and indoor/outdoor living with an openable glass garage door and large south facing deck with hot tub. Nestled in the trees amongst towering Ponderosa Pines. Located minutes away from Nederland, Boulder, and Eldora Ski Resort. This space will not disappoint!

Since its inception, everyone that has visited this house has commented positively about the space. Owner designed, and built with the help of local craftsman, no detail was left untouched. With 15' high vaulted ceilings, south facing aspect, passive solar design, and filled with an abundance of windows, this house is flooded with light, color, and ample ventilation. When temperatures drop, in floor radiant heat takes over to provide warmth underfoot and an auxiliary gas stove provides instant heat. With an amazing view of Mount Thorodin, also know as the "sleeping giant", this 10'500 foot mountain is the focal centerpiece. Perched on top of a hill and surrounded by trees, one has the feeling of being in a "tree house".

The property is located in a rural mountain neighborhood and is very secluded as it backs up to National Forest service land, however, it is less than only one mile away from a major highway (Hwy 72) and has ample parking. It is very quiet consisting of only two other neighbors with ample spacing. Even though the property has a Black Hawk address, it is actually closer to the small but bustling mountain town of Nederland. The local area provides numerous summer and winter recreation activities and is flanked by the Continental Divide Mountain Range with protected Wilderness areas. Minutes away, Eldora Ski Resort provides world class Alpine skiing and a Nordic Center with over 40 kilometers of groomed trails.

Approximate time to local areas : 10 minutes to Nederland (nearest town), 20 minutes to Eldora Ski Resort, 25 minutes to Black Hawk, 35 minutes to Boulder, 55 minutes to Denver, and 1 hour 15 minutes to Denver International Airport (DIA).

Guest access: This house is a three story house, of which guests have exclusive access to the 1st floor ( main living area ) with separate entrance, deck, hot tub, and grill, and the 2nd floor (master suite) with spa bathroom, bedroom and adjoining balcony. The owner/host resides in the lower level of the house with separate entrance and shares no common spaces with guests. Guests also have free access to local micro brewed beer on tap in the kitchen as well as organic coffee and filtered water.

Other things to note: During winter months, an AWD or 4WD vehicle is recommended. Cell coverage is limited, currently AT&T. WiFi and WiFi calling are available as well as a land line and phone for local and emergency calls. If you do not have AT&T, it is advisable to set up WIFI calling with your provider before arrival. Check - in is anytime after 4 pm and check - out is by 10 am. Quiet hours are from 10 pm - 8 am. No parties, no shoes or smoking inside the house.

One of a Kind Zen Mountain Retreat
This property was so thoughtfully designed, and has amazing views and thoughtful touches throughout. I we enjoyed the spa robes and heated floors, the local beer on tap, and the layout that made it easy to reconnect, unwind and enjoy!

The Outstanding Reviews are Legit!
Not sure what to say that hasn't already been covered already - this place is wonderful. We ended up staying inside due to some pretty horrible weather, and we were fine with that! The kitchen is well appointed, beds and lounge areas are comfy, we even did a sauna & cold bath dip in the master bathroom. Not difficult to get to, but feels worlds away. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful Stay
This was the best house we have ever stayed in. It’s truly an escape. Very clean, impeccable design, and incredible views. Three days of relaxing, reconnecting, and hanging out as a family. There is nothing not to love here. For us, what stood apart was the design of the house, heated concrete floors, hot tub, and the calm you reach when feeling so close to nature. We cannot wait to return!

Beautiful property, everything as described. Grade host, very clean. Just far enough away from civilization, but close enough to grab dinner.

Was a great house to crash in, we were just there for the night but it was comfy and out of cell phone range which is a plus for me!

Beautifully decorated home in the Mountains
We spent a three night girls trip here and had the best time. The property was very intentionally designed and decorated, and we had plenty of room to spread out. The hot tub and sauna were amazing, and we fell in love with the nearby town of Nederland. There was even beer on tap in the kitchen! Would definitely book again 💗
