The views are BEAUTIFUL!
Highly recommend. This property is sitting so that everywhere you look it is just amazing views. The driveway is steep and, I've found, that everything in that area of CO is either rock or dirt. If there is rain or snow don't even try it without 4wd. We had a great time, the hosts were great, responsive, and not intrusive. The house was clean and comfy. Wifi was incredible for how far out it is.
I will say this to anyone looking to visit this part of CO. (This was our first trip out West, some people already know these things, but we did not). You are out there. It is a small (SMALL) town and everything you do will be at minimum 45 min to 2 hr drive. Get your gas & supplies (food, drinks, etc) before you get too far from Denver or CO Springs, just do yourself that favor. :) When you are used to having things open most of the days and evenings, it is a culture shock. The streets are rolled up by 7pm for most places. Small markets in Fairplay are decent, we ate at the house every night, there is just nothing close. Most people head to Breckenridge, although we weren't too impressed, rather stay on that deck and cook on the grill, we did literally every night! The meat purchased in this area is delicious.
Go to the Southpark Museum. It is amazing. Georgetown Loop Railroad is fun, but the drive there is the best scenic route I've ever taken. Enjoy the beauty that is Colorado.
