The Home

Located high above the South Park Basin, the quintessential cabin is nestled amongst towering lodgepole pine trees atop a ridge that overlooks Hoosier Pass and several 14,000 foot peaks in the Mosquito Range. The home has 1800sqft of space to relax and soak up the mountain life. Enjoy the open concept main floor with breathtaking views of Mount Bross, a 14178ft peak, or sit back and relax in front of the wood burning stove and stream a show on the 55in TV.

The home offers sleeping arrangements for 8 people in 3 bedrooms. Bedroom 1, located on the upper level, includes a queen bed and ample storage in the closet for your clothes and gear. Bedroom 2, also on the upper level, is a cozy room that includes a queen bed and closet for storage. The 3rd bedroom is located on the lower level and includes 1 full size bed and 1 twin size bunk bed. This room also has a large closet for storage. A bathroom is located on each level.

The kitchen is fully appointed with all the necessary essentials for cooking. Basic cooking supplies, coffee, tea and hot chocolate are provided for your convenience. The dining table seats 8.

The large family room is located on the lower level and offers a 65" TV with streaming services. The lower level also provides access to the hot tub.

Pets are welcome for an additional $100 fee. We utilize a Ring doorbell camera and electronic lock to assist with access to the property. We also use a ring camera inside the utility room to monitor the cistern water level.

Great stay for a quick trip!
We had such a good time staying at this house! Beautiful location and the property managers had gone above and beyond stocking the place! The views were amazing and it was a perfect getaway from Denver. Took us about 45 minutes to get to Breckenridge and only 15 minutes to Fairplay. The dirt road getting up to the place was bumpy, but nothing a mid-size couldn't handle. Would for sure stay again!

The Overlook
This is a great property with solitude, views and comfortable accommodations. The hot tub had a problem with the temp but we were able to enjoy it anyway. There was a issue at the well but there was plenty of water available with the cistern system. The owner was great to work with. Made our getaway wonderful and look forward to maybe staying here again.

About the host

Hosted by Derrick Smith

Host profile image
Derrick and Dawsiri have operated short term rentals in Denver, CO for 8 years and served hundreds of guests exceptional vacations. In 2021, they expanded their operations to include the mountain destination of Fairplay, CO. They choose Fairplay because of its unique location which is close to the activities of Breckenridge, CO and Summit county but also has a low key mountain life feel.

Why they chose this property

The owners enjoy the mountain life whenever possible and chose this property for their own enjoyment when not utilized as a short term rental.

What makes this property unique

Remote, yet close to all the mountain activities you can desire.
