We spend hours here each morning enjoying the views of mountains, forest, and various wildlife on our 2 ½ acre property. Our guests have seen deer, elk, turkey, moose, black bears and wonderful birds, rabbits and chipmunks.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Trish Ronan, Property Manager, Dan & Kelly Heard, Owners

Dan and Kelly Heard and their daughter and son-in-law Kendra and Patrick Drew are Texans who enjoy several weeks in the Colorado Rockies each year. We have owned this property together since September of 2014 and have enjoyed improving it and sharing it with family, friends, and many fantastic vacationers. Our favorite times are when our other children and grandchildren are all here together.
Why they chose this property
We have owned this property together since September of 2014 and have enjoyed improving it and sharing it with family, friends, and many fantastic vacationers. It is next to the YMCA so you can travel here with friends. We are on a little river too and we can hike directly into the RMNP!
What makes this property unique
In the summer we love hiking together and in the winter snow shoeing close by or skiing at Eldora just over an hour away. We are a little out of town, so you feel private and secluded, but dinner is just 10 minutes away.
