Our family loved our stay. The property was close enough to town to have everything we need, but far enough out for the relaxation and seclusion we needed. The home was comfortable and well stocked with plenty of space both inside and out. We enjoyed watching the wildlife and taking advantage of the trail to the creek. Even with the lack of cell service, the wifi was great and we all stayed happily connected. We had a fantastic stay!
Clean, comfortable, (loved the extra cozy throw blankets in the living room), kitchen well-stocked with quality cooking utensils, lovely quiet home. And appreciated the shampoo for those of us who forgot it!
Our second stay here and another perfect 10! Property is better than described/cannot be beat! Communication is excellent/host is very responsive. Chefs kitchen/well stocked, lots of wildlife, out door spaces are comfy... Cannot say enough positive things! Thanks again, Brian
Our stay at this property was exactly what we were looking for and we had a fantastic time! It had everything you could need for a stay and the owner's instructions and local guidance was much appreciated and well thought out. We loved the ability to hike on the property without having to go to public land with other people and had great views of wildlife while sitting on the porch. We would certainly book again when we are back in the area!
The property was great. Minor issue when we arrived but Brian was very responsive and resolved our issue. The kitchen is well stocked with pans and dishes that allowed us to do a lot of cooking.
Beautiful place and great accommodation ! Cozy Fireplace!!!

Thank you Whitney. I’m glad you enjoyed the visit. I hope you and your family will come back again. You might enjoy seeing the area in that Summer when all the trails are easier to access.
We were at the property in July and had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful and the location was easy to find. We will plan to visit again and recommend the property to others.
Set in a valley, surrounded by snowy mountains. Just right for three days of family, food,
and Christmas movies!

Why they chose this property
This property is strategically located at the gateway to Squaw Valley. You can hike, cross country ski, or snow show from this property, 10 minutes down the hill on our private trails, across the bridge at Chicago Creek, and up the valley 2.6 mile to Idaho Springs Reservoir. From there, if you are up for the journey, you can keep hiking forest service trail #52 another 2 miles to Chicago Lake (s), and even all the way up to Summit Lake or Mount Evans.
What makes this property unique
Enter a completely new world 45 minutes from Denver. This property offers a unique blend of meadow, mountains, vegetation with Chicago creek runs through the site. A terrific get-away from civilization to relax or take advantage of miles of private and public trails. Enjoy an abundance of wildlife experiences!
