This place is great to get away from it all! It is secluded so that you feel you are out by yourself but close enough to be able to get to town. It even has its own walking trail!

Outstanding property! House was exceptionally clean and well stocked with anything you could need. Amazing views from the hilltop house. Great patios for relaxing and enjoying the view. Walking trail on property from end of driveway was great. Communication with homeowner was easy and he was quick to respond. Great home base for exploring the area. We will be back!

Cozy cabin

The property was very nice and private, but not too far from the things we wanted to do. There was a pack n play there for the baby so that was nice. It was spacious enough for kids to play and all 6 of us to sleep comfortably. The owner was very responsive and check in/check out was very easy.

Perfect Wet Mountain Location

You will not find a better setting to spend your time in Colorado. This is without a doubt one of the hidden gems in the Westcliffe area. Beautiful home, spacious with all the accommodations anyone’s could want. The view is breathtaking and alone a reason to stay.

East of Westcliffe

This is simply a lovely home and location. The house is wonderful and the views spectacular. The area is rich with all sorts of interesting things and places, yet the house is isolated and quiet. The area is a dark-sky location and the patio is perfect for marveling at God's creative handiwork. I will be back--yesterday if I could.

Very nice place to stay! Great panoramic mountain view!

Spring Break trip. My husband & I took our 21 yr. old son & my 86 yr. old mom with us. Rode the Royal Gorge Train in Canon City altogether. Next day we went hiking to the Marion Mines that my 21 year old son found by reading the “Southern Front Range Trail Guide” that was at the VRBO! My mother was able to stay behind at the house with a beautiful view to look at! Had a great time! Thanks so much!

Perfect quiet get away

Matt is a great host, very communicative and sent perfect directions on how to get to the house. The views from the house are the best! We watched the sunset every single evening. Great location - quiet and tucked away in a valley that is close to hiking, off roading, and Bishop Castle. The bed was super comfortable and we have already talked about coming back to work remotely. The hiking trail on property was great - easy to navigate and showed off the property well. We saw SO much wildlife and loved the hummingbirds and chipmunks especially. We bought extra birdseed to be able to keep feeding them! Our favorite part was the night sky - seeing the Milky Way, a lightening storm in the distance, and air glow phenomenon was incredible.

Perfect for our 3-day Thanksgiving getaway

We have family nearby who host Thanksgiving, but don’t have enough room for all guests so we needed a place of our own that also had a kitchen to prep our contributions to the big meal. This mountain house was perfect! It was comfortable and the nice size galley kitchen was great for two people to prep and cook easily without infringing on the other’s territory. We really enjoyed the large living room with plenty of space to spread out. The most wonderful part was the beautiful view out over the valley toward the Sangre de Cristo mountains. Snow came in on Thursday night and we spent a wonderful Friday enjoying the mountain views. Matt is a great host. We had a couple of questions during our stay and never waited more than about 15 minutes for his response. While there, a big snowstorm was forecast and we almost left early. But Matt’s quick response and info about when and how the roads to the cabin are plowed encouraged to stay and Friday was a beautiful, cozy day spent watching the snowfall and enjoying the day. We plan on being back soon.

Roomy Property with Great Views of Sangre de Cristo Mountains

My family and I stayed for 3 nights in this property located about 15 miles drive from Westcliffe/Silver Cliff, Colorado. The house has ample room for a family of 6-8. It is situated overlooking a scenic valley with fantastic views of the beautiful Sangre de Cristo mountains to the west. There is a large family room/dining room. The laundry features a large washer and drier that could also serve a family of 6-8. The bedrooms contain individually heaters on separate thermostats. Because the property is at about 9,000' elevation, we found it necessary to use the heaters during our stay during the third week in June, especially during the evening. The location is peaceful and somewhat secluded. The last 5 miles of the drive is on an unpaved, but well-maintained road. There is a grocery store and there are a few restaurants in Westcliffe, but plan for about a 30-40 minute drive to reach town. Bishop's Castle, a local landmark, is about a 45 minute drive away. Bishop's Castle is a Harry Potter-like castle constructed of local stone, wrought iron, and wood. I would highly recommend visiting Bishop's Castle, particularly if you have children. The bottom line is that this is a spacious and comfortable property with a commanding view of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range.

Paradise in the Sangres

Five stars is not enough for this property and host. Matt is an great host, communication was clear and thorough and he also gave us some tips on places to hike nearby. The house is clean and comfortable and filled with everything we needed to have a great week's vacation. And to top it off the view and surroundings are awesome. We will definitely be going back to the Mountain House.
