Our group of five humans and three spoiled pups thoroughly enjoyed a weekend of rest, relaxation, and the peace and quiet you can only find in the Rocky mountains. The home is as advertised, and as a pet friendly rental, the pups immediately could tell there were new scents all around. The kitchen meets all of your basic needs, the bedrooms are comfortable, and having a bathroom on each level is very convenient. The steam shower in the upstairs master was an unexpected treat, and the hot tub outside overlooks the valley below and doesn't disappoint. The exterior of the home and the surrounding grounds could use some TLC, but it certainly has a rustic charm. The location of the home puts you minutes from mind blowing hikes, incredible wildlife encounters, and some of the best small town attractions (and world class skiing) you can find. This home is literally seated at the feet of giants! At just over 11,000 feet in elevation, from the deck you can see upclose the details of some of the famous Colorado 14ers, as well as the creatures who call them home...in our short stay we saw moose, deer, chipmunks, squirrels, rabbits and more birds than we could identify. Notes to travelers from lower elevation: this elevation is no joke. I am a Colorado native, and even I experienced dizziness, and a nosebleed, so be prepared and stay hydrated.
