About this property
The Knotty and Nice: Lake, Hot Tub, Pet Friendly, Fireplace, Games, Paddleboards, 6 Min to Uptown
Enjoy front and center views of gorgeous Lake Hatcher from this fantastic home. With its modern design and decor, beautiful aged wood and floor to ceiling windows, this home provides tons of natural light and views in every direction. A perfect hideaway directly on Lake Hatcher, Knotty & Nice (like it's sister property, Hot Toddy) boasts beauty and elegance with rustic lodge-style characteristics. The duplex home is in a quiet setting. However, you could have neighbors next door, staying on the opposite side. Each side of the duplex has a large deck sectioned off for your privacy where you can sit with a cup of coffee or glass of wine and take in the views and watch the local wildlife meander by. Geese, deer, foxes and eagles are frequent visitors here! Although you will feel secluded, uptown amenities are only 5-10 minutes away. Enjoy all of your favorite Football teams and sports games on TV included with your rental! You won’t regret the memories and scenic opportunities this special home has to offer!
Be sure to check out "The Hot Toddy" listing if you have a bigger group. This is a duplex complex with two identical sides that you can book together for larger groups and be in the same area!
**SNOW CONDITIONS may arise during your travel days or your vacation stay. Main roads are maintained throughout the day; however, many side roads receive less attention, and every driveway has a different terrain. For your safety, 4 Wheel Drive/All Wheel Drive or two-wheel drive with accessible chains or cables is recommended for Colorado travel from November to May.
***Here is a great link for Local Weather forecasts and road conditions- https://pagosaweather.org/2024/10/16/lots-of-snow-in-the-snow-mountains-this-weekend/
*Every Sunday football game is available on every TV in the unit *
*There are security cameras on the exterior of the building for your safety on these premises.

HOUSE LAYOUT:
This delightful home is an exciting blend of modern and rural living, emitting both in interior and location. You will feel transported to the great outdoors while still within city limits, having both easy access to in-town amenities and immediate access to mother nature. Inside, framed with absolutely stunning wooden design and color, you'll first find the full kitchen and dining area. The impressively quaint living room will sit behind this area, stocked with large bay windows from the floor to the ceiling, comfortable lounging, and an inviting gas fireplace. Between the living room and dining area is a half bathroom plus, washer/dryer for convenience. You will also have direct access to the outside rear of the home/lakefront through the doors past the living room fireplace.
Lastly, on the main floor, the Master Bedroom guarantees coziness and relaxation while hosting its own spacious bathroom.
As the house opens up, you can take the stairs upwards to the guest bedrooms; one on the right and the other on the left. Both rooms provide additional abundant natural lighting and sufficient sleeping space for all. Between both rooms is another bathroom to share, equipped with the necessities of every commonplace full bathroom. If the living area seems too far for the guests in these rooms, there is a charming living space in the loft between the two rooms. This upstairs living area is equipped with a fun air hockey table and a well-stocked pile of board games.
The exterior of the home promotes rural living, nestled between forestry and waterfront country. There is an abundance of solitude and open-air whilst being near easy access to Pagosa Springs. You will never forget this location.
