Summary: My husband and I stayed here with our dog for a weekend getaway. We marveled at how gorgeous and perfect every aspect was. The views are spectacular and the inside is very stylish and modern. The furnishings were all super comfortable and welcoming. One of the best perks was the barrel sauna. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating. For being just 30-45 min from the front range, it felt like being much more remote and secluded in the mountains. We definitely plan to come back with a larger group as it seems ideal for kids as well!

Summary: This place is in a great location-remote and isolated but still near nice restaurants in Nederland and gambling action in Blackhawk. The site is on a lake with a cool rock formation and the neighboring houses are screened by trees. The house is a supercool container house that is decorated like an art gallery and fully furnished with cooking stuff and games,etc. great outdoor patio with fire pit and a sauna too. Highly recommend

Summary: This is such a great place to come with family because there’s so much to see and do if you want action, but so calm and peaceful if you want to relax and soak up nature. You can hike to a nearby mountain, canoe or paddle board the lake, explore the state park nearby or relax in the hammock or in the living room with its gorgeous views. So comfortable and clean and well thought out. I’ll come again!
