Have the best of both worlds with world-class skiing, hiking, shopping and dining while finding comfort at this serene mountain retreat.

This welcoming 3br/2ba multi-level home has an open main level floor plan providing space for everyone to be together or plenty of other rooms for you to spread out.

When you enter the house, there is a gear room to help keep your space organized and clutter free.

The roads and driveways are plowed and not too steep, no need for 4x4 but weather appropriate tires are recommended during the winter.

The main level has two fire places and the kitchen/dining room is a wonderful place for cooking and congregating. We offer all the basic amenities such as condiments, paper goods and a well equipped kitchen so you are ready to make what you want.

The living room is a continuous space with the kitchen so folks can either relax with a book on the couch, share a movie on the smart tv, or chime in the conversation.

The Family Room/Den in the lower level is a perfect escape to watch the game, stay up late, or even get some work done. There's a full size desk, ample lighting and a foldout couch with a 4” thick memory foam mattress that will have you ready for the next days’ adventure.

The Primary Bedroom is spacious and welcomes the morning sun, features a lounge and a balcony to give you the privacy and space to relax or be more productive.

The South guest room features a pillow top mattress, luxury bedding and offers afternoon sun exposure after a fun day of recreating.

Comfortable Solitude

The home is very comfortable, very clean, with full amenities, like big screen TV and cable, wi-fi, comfortable beds and furniture, full kitchen, and it’s a few minute walk from the most solitude you can find in any direction right there on the blue river. If you are interested in hiking the 13ers and 14ers near by you could not start from a more ideal location.

Great spot

My business partner and I had a small work retreat in Breckenridge and rented Paul’s house - the location is great, about 7min to town with light traffic, and the house is clean and well maintained. We’d book again for sure.

Great Place

Could not have asked for anything more for our ski vacation. Just a few miles outside of Breckenridge and easy to get to everything. Place was perfect, roomy, and had lots of little extras. Communication with Paul was easy and we did not have any problems. Would highly recommend.

Great mountain home perfect for my family getawat

My family and I stayed here over the Christmas holiday 2022-2023. We are six adults, and the house accommodated all of us very well. Love that this house is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood away from the busyness of downtown Breck but only 5-10 minutes by car (depending on traffic). The owner was very easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Highly recommend this great home for family getaways. The only caveat I have is that house is located on a slight downhill from Highway 9. Although it is only a hundred yards or so from the driveway to Highway 9, my front wheel drive SUV had difficulty making it up the hill from the driveway to Hwy 9 before the snowplows cleared the road. My other car (Subaru Outback) had no problems.

Perfect Getaway!

Loved our stay at this house! It was absolutely perfect for our needs! It was nestled in the pines of Blue River and a short drive from Breckenridge. There was plenty of room for our crew, and lots of free parking as well. The beds were comfortable, bathrooms were newly remodeled and we had lots of space to move around. It was very clean and cozy. The owner was very responsive and gave us some great tips to get around and avoid the heavy traffic in Breck. The ONLY downside was that the house is located off HWY 9. The snow banks were really high which made it difficult to see oncoming traffic. Would definitely recommend a 4 WD or AWD during the winter as there is an upward slope to the main road. Sedans (from other homes in the area) had a difficult time climbing that slope in the ice and snow. That was the only tricky spot I could see. Will definitely try to rent this place again in the future! Highly Recommend!!

Book this - you won't regret it!

(My group: 4 adults ages mid-late 30s and one 3 year old toddler) This beautiful cabin is located about 10 minutes away from downtown Breck. It is quiet, cozy and spacious. Paul is a wonderful host. He answered all our questions quickly. I felt safe and at home during my stay. The cabin is clean and well stocked. There are plenty of small details that shows Paul truly cares about ensuring that his guests enjoy their stay. There's a spacious game room, comfortable beds, board games, a speaker for music and a well stocked kitchen with plenty of appliances for cooking at home. The kitchen and dining area is HUGE, perfect for our friends and family trip. There's a spacious mudroom to store dirty boots and ski/snowboard items. This place is perfect for group trips and is big enough for longer stays! I would definitely stay here again next time we come back to Breck. I cannot emphasize enough how welcoming of a host Paul is. Our bedrooms were cold the first night due to the low temps and Paul walked me through how to program the thermostat to make sure we were comfortable for the rest of our stay. He really goes above and beyond!

Great location and communication

Paul's property was in a great location just South of Breckenridge. The house had everything we needed for a long weekend and was very relaxing and quiet to come back to after a day of activities. Twice I had a question for Paul and he was very fast in responding and always went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. This place would be at the top of our list to return to next time we come to Breckenridge.

Great house just outside of Breckenridge

My son, a couple of friends and I stayed here for three spring ski days. It’s a great house for 5-8 people — well maintained and decorated — and just a 5-10 minute drive to Breck. The owner is very responsive. I would recommend the house.

Great place 5 minutes from Breck

This place was just as described. Very comfortable house to come home to after a day on the slopes. Two fireplaces and brand new bathrooms. Best part is you dodge all the traffic north of Breck in the morning. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic Breckenridge Stay

We absolutely LOVED our time in Breckenridge this summer, and the house had a lot to do with that. 2021 crowds were VERY HIGH, and it was a treat to be south of town (out of the rush) but still very close to anything we wanted to do in town. The property was well maintained, clean, and comfortable. It was very close to the Blue River, and nice hiking trails for my four year old. It was also a huge treat to have some "necessities" available to us in the bathroom and kitchen. I have rented a lot of VRBOs, and I have not found this to be standard, so it was fantastic to have plastic wrap/laundry supplies/cooking oil/etc. We are already thinking about another trip to Breck, and this property will be a part of our plans. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Wonderful Experience!

This property was such a blessing to our family’s getaway vacation! Paul and Amy were absolutely wonderful and helped in any way possible before and during our stay! The location of the property is nicely not even 10 minutes away from busy Breck town, and set just walking distance from a serene, magical creek and pond, which our family fell in love with! It was truly peaceful and restorative! We even had a moose walk right by the house on our last morning there!! So beautiful!! The house does have three levels, which was tricky at first with our baby crawler. But we loved the ability to have one napping upstairs and others playing downstairs! Also, the basement was the perfect “Kids Clubhouse”! It’s so nice to have a bit of extra space in the master bedroom for early morning reading on the balcony before the littles would awake! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-supplied, indoor and outdoor games were provided, and so much more!! Such a wonderful property!! Would highly recommend!

Great property

This place is fantastic! Great location and the communication with management was fantastic. They were so accommodating to changing plans due to weather. The thoughtfulness and messages from management were awesome,even gave us travel tips. The house is exactly as described and our whole family loved it. You are only a 6 min drive from Breck and another 15 from Frisco/I-70. It’s the perfect location in my opinion. HIGHLY recommend.

The RMNP is literally our backyard! Access to some of the most beautiful trails are steps away from the back door. The Blue river is full of wonderful spots to dip your feet in, catch some fish and observe magestic wildlife!
