Great stay. The house is lovely and in a great area!

We came for the view, and it delivered. The house was just rustic enough to feel like you are roughing it, but with all the amenities needed to be comfortable. Peaceful and quiet on the side of the mountain with all of the stars above. We loved the Vallecito Creek hike which was just a few miles away.

My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights while on a 17 day roadtrip through CO. We absolutely loved it. It's so peaceful and comfortable. The beds were the best on our whole trip. We saw deer in the front yard. The views were spectacular, especially from the hot tub. We also enjoyed the local restaurants and stores. We would 100% stay here again!!
