Loved our stay! The home was convenient, comfortable, stocked for cooking and relaxing after skiing or hiking. The hot tub was perfect and beds were so comfortable. The living room has amazing afternoon light and a perfect view of the sunrise hitting the mountain peak. We enjoyed every minute and Dawn was great to work with throughout the booking and checking in process!

The property was exactly as expected, a perfect little mountain getaway. The hosts were super welcoming and gracious. Highly recommend La Barranca. It’s in a quiet neighborhood, but still private enough to feel secluded. Not far from Breck in case you want to venture into town. Great stay, worth a visit!

Great place

Everything was clean and the place was spectacular. We did have an awd vehicle and had to be pulled out of the drive way by a tow truck since we couldn’t get up the hill but that could be due to a rental car not having the best tires. But the host was very accommodating with a recommendation of who to call and very helpful. Would stay there again without a doubt.

Thanks so much for the glowing review. Snow tires are important for sure. Ryan's Recovery takes AAA and is generally quick to help. I'm sorry you got stuck but glad the snow was epic and the house in great shape!

The property was in an upscale neighborhood inan excellent location, close to Breckenridge, Frisco, Dillon, Keystone and Copper Mountain. There was great hiking accessible across the street,and lots to do in the area. The property was very clean and well appointed,and had all the comforts of home- a modern and well stockedkitchen, very comfortable living area with lots of light from all of the windows overlooking the deck. The large screen TV was a bonus withaccess to great streaming channels. A wonderful jacuzzi hot tub complete with comfy robes, a large wrap around deck with nice dining table and adirondack chairs facing the mountains was the icing on the cake. Hearing the mountain stream cascading over the rocks at the back of the property was so relaxing. The forested setting added to the serenity and privacy of the property. The hosts were very accommodating and ready to assist if needed. This will be our go to destination vacation rental every time we return to the area.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Landau

Host profile image
Avid skiers and outdoor enthusiasts, we love to play in the mountains during all times of the year. We own Environs Residential, a design/build construction company and spend most of our time in Atanta, GA. Terry, a native of Ohio, was a resident of Breckenridge for 18 years prior to moving east. Dawn, a native of Tennessee, has lived in Atlanta since 1988. We love to travel to exciting new places and always look for spots where we can enjoy the outdoors or city culture. In addition to playing outside, we love to cook, appreciate nice wine and entertain our friends and neighbors. Sharing our little slice of heaven in the mountains is especially enjoyable. We love the comments and photos our guests send us after their stay.

Why they chose this property

It took us 5 minutes in the house to decide to purchase it. A long-time friend of Terry's with whom we were having a beer a the local pizza joint, Fatty's, told us about it and drove us out to the place. Loving the location and of course the stream, we immediatley called another friend and realtor, Stephanie Epps, who got us in to see it the next day. We ended up buying the house along with both lots on either side! We love Valley of the Blue and our quiet street high above Hwy 9. The neighbors are great and the stars at night are magical.

What makes this property unique

Our mountain cottage is only 6 miles down Hwy 9 from Breckenridge. Far enough to have privacy and close enough for a trip to town for dinner. We love the serenity of the mountains, the stars at night from the hot tub and the views of Quandry Mountain from the deck and living room. It's small enough so that a couple can enjoy it to themselves without breaking the bank :-)
