About this house rental
Just one mile from Mt. Princeton Hot Springs! Very few neighbors, very private with stunning views! This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect setting for families, couples, or friends looking to make special memories together. The primary bedroom features a comfortable king bed with a Simmons Beautyrest mattress, a walk-in closet with ample storage, an ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower, and a private deck with direct access to the hot tub. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the third has a twin bed each with beautyrest mattresses, plenty of storage space and thoughtfully decorated. The third bedroom also includes a trundle bed if needed. The second full bathroom is conveniently located off the hallway and has a bathtub and double sinks. The living room is cozy and comfortable with beautiful views of the mountains (often including deer and elk!) and a large TV - ideal for movie nights or relaxing mornings. A wood burning stove will warm your hands on chilly mountain evenings. The large ottoman will pamper your feet during the day and becomes a single-size pullout bed for extra sleeping space at night if needed. The updated kitchen is well equipped to make cooking an easy and enjoyable part of your vacation and includes bakeware, dishes, utensils, basic seasonings and even a crock pot so you can come back from an adventurous day and be ready to gather around the table for a hot and convenient meal. Step outside and you'll find a peaceful outdoor space with stunning 360 degree views! With very few neighbors and certified dark sky, the night sky is waiting to take your breath away! Tell stories around the fire pit, melt away your stress in the hot tub or sip coffee on the patio and enjoy the most amazing views of the Rocky Mountains! It’s more than just a place to stay-it's a place to unwind, explore, and create lasting memories.

Great place with spectacular views of Mt Antero and Mt Princeton. Nice location with close access to the Mt Princeton Hot Springs and Chalk Creeek Canyon up to St Elmo. On a plateau so you can see for miles. Had pronghorn deer wander through a couple of times. About 20 minutes from Buena Vista and 25 from Salida. Very clean and well appointed. Kitchen was fantastic. Plenty of room for family dinners. Beds are great, and bedrooms have good storage. Hot tub was a nice touch under a beautiful new cover with nice accent lighting.Communication with the host was easy and timely.
