About this house rental
Step out and hit local hiking and mountain biking trails just minutes—or steps—from the house. After a day of exploring, soak under the stars in the hot tub on the second-story deck, with sweeping views of Montezuma and the San Juan Ridge framed by the trees.
The home features three spacious bedrooms as well as 2 acres for peace and privacy:
→ Two downstairs rooms, each with plush queen beds
→ A third room with a full trundle bed and twin pullout—perfect for kids or extra guests
And a bonus kids room with twin bed upstairs.
Cook and gather in a fully stocked kitchen with forest views from every window. Whether you’re making breakfast or pouring a glass of wine, the views are always on the menu.
→ Couples Retreat Package
Looking for a quiet and romantic getaway? We offer a special weekday discount for single-couple bookings. .
