The Space:
Talcott Timber Lodge is a handcrafted, cozy retreat where rustic charm meets comfort and connection.

Panoramic windows frame peaceful views of the 14th fairway and a private wildlife sanctuary—an additional lot purchased to ensure privacy and open space where deer, elk, and wild turkeys wander freely.
Gather around the expansive dining table for holiday meals, family celebrations or group retreats, or unwind in the enclosed outdoor lounge—a perfect spot for morning coffee, reading, or quiet conversation. Evenings come alive on the patios with a crackling firepit and bubbling hot tub, surrounded by the glow of nature.
The lodge features three ensuite king bedrooms plus a self-contained suite with its own entrance, fireplace, TV, and kitchenette. Hand built by the family who owns it, every detail reflects craftsmanship, warmth, and a personal touch. And when the morning sun rises over the mountains, lighting up the fairway and private yard, it’s a moment you’ll never forget.

Very well-appointed house, accommodated our group of 3 families easily. Spacious grounds, nice hot tub and BBQ, very responsive host. Would definitely rent again!
The home was lovely and very well equipped. We had three generations of family staying for a family reunion and everyone was very comfortable and had plenty of space. The host was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to ensure my husbands 96 year old father was comfortable and happy. Would absolutely stay again. Great location, private but walkable to everything.
The house is very welcoming and perfectly set up for 3 families. We had a wonderful time, the hosts have taken a lot of care to make you feel at home and assure that items are labeled so you know where to find what you need. The only hiccup we had was check in, but that was resolved easily and they gave us treats and a late check out to compensate for the minor inconvenience. If any questions came up, they are very responsive to helping out and troubleshooting (aka hooking up an Xbox) when needed.
Everything about this property, and our hosts, was exceptional! The house and surroundings were even more beautiful than the photographs depicted. Our family group of eleven adults never wanted for space, comfort, or amenities. The kitchen equipment and facilities were ideal for anyone who likes to cook and dine with family and friends. The sleeping quarters and outdoor areas were equally fantastic.In all, everyone in our party had a wonderful time, coming away from this event feeling happy and refreshed, wanting to repeat it next summer and hoping that this marvelous house will be available again. The tranquility and natural beauty of this microclimate in the heart of the Cascades is unbeatable, even down to the daily sightings of local deer, elk and other wildlife.Both Santo and his team at Blue Sky Retreats -- together with the homeowners themselves -- were remarkably generous, gracious, and easy to communicate with. I struggle to find words adequate to express our gratitude for all that they provided to make our holiday perfect. I recommend them as highly as possible for their kindness, professionalism, responsiveness, and wonderful attention to detail.As a final note: we were delighted to discover that the offerings of the surrounding resort continue to grow. From Glade Spring Spa to the new Roslyn Grocery Suncadia, we were able to obtain everything we needed within the resort itself.This rental arrangement provided an excellent value at an extremely fair price.

Response from VrboOwner on 5 October 2026
Definitely — I’d make it feel more like a genuine response to someone who clearly had a meaningful family trip.
Thank you so much for this incredibly kind review! It truly makes us happy to hear how much your family enjoyed your time together here. There’s something so special about having everyone under one roof with plenty of room to cook, gather, relax, and just enjoy being together...and it sounds like you did exactly that.
We’re so glad you fell in love with the peaceful setting, beautiful surroundings, and all the wildlife too. Hearing that everyone left feeling happy and refreshed is about the best compliment we could receive. Thank you as well for your sweet words about Santo and our team. We would absolutely love to welcome your family back next summer, either to this home or to one of our other 25 Blue Sky Retreats properties!
