Dog Friendly- The Retreat at Cochetopa
STR 010454
Welcome to The Retreat at Cochetopa! Nestled in nearby scenic foothills, this is an ideal four-season get-away! Leave the hustle and bustle behind to relax in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Located on Cochetopa Creek, this secluded home is 15 minutes from historic downtown Salida and 15 minutes to all natural skiing at Monarch Mountain. Elegant western decor complements an open floor plan anchored by a large wood-burning fireplace and spacious living area. Three bedrooms can comfortably sleep 6, with queen beds in two bedrooms and one set of bunk beds in a third bedroom. The back patio and cozy outdoor seating areas are the perfect place to relax, enjoy a cocktail and listen to Cochetopa Creek after a day of adventure. Large spruce, pine and aspen trees cover the 27-acre parcel, where wildlife are often seen just past the patio windows. There is also a gourmet kitchen, a private hot tub and cozy nooks to relax.
DURING WINTER MONTHS A 4 WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
