About this property

Eagles Nest: A Pure Slice of Heaven

This beautiful 36 acre mountain retreat at 9100 ft, offers every amenity imaginable and would appeal to the dreamer, the artist, the writer, a family or a group of great friends looking to enjoy fresh air, sunshine, and solitude yet only short drive from Telluride Mountain Ski resort, a world class summer & winter destination.

“Eagles Nest” offers breathtakingly beautiful 360 views of the Uncompahgre and San Miguel Ranges and sights as far as Utah. Enjoy your morning coffee on the expansive wrap-around deck surrounded by ponderosa pines and aspen trees while watching the humming birds buzz, and the eagles catch the thermals. During the day, depending on your season, enjoy a day of hiking, fly-fishing, rafting, snowshoeing, cross country or downhill skiing, or just reading a good book and then relax your muscles in the 8 person hot tub just off the deck. In the evening, while watching spectacular sunsets, delight in cooking a gourmet meal while feeling the crackling warmth of the Irish Waterford wood burning fireplace set between the 8-foot picture windows in the cathedral ceiling living room. Finally, gaze, in awe, at the million star-filled sky that can never be adequately described. This is truly a destination in and of itself to let you leave the world behind and fill your mind, body and soul with all the beauty of a Colorado mountain retreat.

And even though you will feel a world away, Telluride Town and Telluride Mountain Ski Resort are only 30 minutes away, where you can shop, downhill ski, dine in world class restaurants, or see a movie at the Nugget. With summer festivals (film, wine tasting, music) almost every weekend, and winter skiing that is second to none, Telluride is a world class resort with an old mining town feel.

Our home offers 4 bedrooms (1 king and 3 queen) plus one extra queen sofa bed in the 3rd floor observatory that comfortably sleeps 10. We have two full baths, an open living room, and dining area that seats 14. The enormous deck also has ample seating for dining as well as a stainless steel barbeque, chairs and stone coffee table.

If in winter, you can enjoy snowshoeing, with 8 pair of snow shoes for your use and you can start your “exercise” right outside the door.
If in summer, enjoy some of the best fly fishing on the San Miguel river at the base of our access road. Or take a hike on the wildflower filled Mesa. The sky is truly the limit!
If you are a long term renter and have to do some work, the house is has two desk areas, a fax/copier/ printer, and WiFi. When you are done with work, you can relax to your favorite surround sound music, watch Satellite TV, or a DVD.
Other Amenities include dog friendly environment, regular road plowing, and backup generator so you should never be without power.

Gorgeous Home
This house has stunning views , it's very well stocked, spacious living and sleeping areas, and a wonderful hot tub It is located 45 minutes from Telluride. Definitely follow the home owners' suggestion that you rent a 4 wheel drive car/SUV. It 's a long dirt road to the house, it was plowed but somewhat difficult to navigate. However ,it was well worth it! The owner's were very responsive to our needs and provide an immaculate , warm and inviting home.

Amazing views
We really enjoyed the views off the deck. Breathtaking sunrise & sunsets. Lovely, comfortable home. Robes a really nice & special touch. Really appreciated how clean it was, the coffee maker especially. We’ve had some bad luck in the past with other rentals. The check out was a breeze unlike so many other places. Would 100% stay again.

Stunning Views and Great Value!
We were so excited to stay in this beautiful home, nestled at the top of the mountain.. When we first arrived we were not expecting the views to be so stunning and honestly didn’t expect how nice the home is.. The pictures offered are somewhat dated and in my opinion, don’t do it justice.. We had such an amazing time.: The kitchen has everything you need (except food), and the bathrooms and bedrooms were all great. Over all the home was in great condition and the views from the hot tub and house are amazing. The living room and furniture was very nice and comfortable. You could almost just stay in the home for a week, (and not ski) as a getaway and enjoy every minute.. This home exceeded our expectations and my teenage boys were ecstatic about having all the acreage to roam around on.. We will definitely book Eagles Nest again.. In the winter months, you will definitely need 4 wheel drive!

New expirations.
Property with beautiful views. Plenty of room for 10 people. Kitchen well equipped. Outdoor hot tub very relaxing after day of skiing. Driving to the property during snowing day little bit challenging but accessible with AWD SUVs.
