A relaxing getaway

If you want to get away from society this is the place. This host has thought of intricate details that made this stay perfect! The attention to detail was incredible. The views are breathtaking. It was so relaxing and just what we needed to recharge. The host was very responsive.

This property is stunning. It was well appointed in the kitchen with spices, dishwashing soap, cookware, coffee and hot chocolate. A washer/dryer combo was available with laundry detergent provided. The shower combo had 2 shower heads and was spacious. The entire home was clean and well maintained. This property is off the beaten path and when you step outside in the morning for your coffee you are greeted with the sounds of birds and the wind. That's it. Truly refreshing and beautiful. Do not let the drive scare you. It goes quickly and is absolutely beautiful.We were a beautiful drive away from the Royal Gorge, river rafting, horse back riding, hiking, and even some shopping.
