Western Slope Mountain Retreat. Privacy, solitude, incredible views
This gorgeous log home sits at the back of a working ranch and the property borders public BLM land. The home has large, open rooms and a spacious living area with a cozy propane fireplace and a bar. There is a covered deck on the front affording views of the entire mountain valley.
Seclusion with all the amenities of home including internet and satellite tv. Consumer Cellular worked great here also. If you are wanting to disconnect for a while, this is the place. The hosts could not be more welcoming. Thank you Frank and Sheila for sharing your beautiful cabin!
we enjoyed our stay! The gravel was a little dicey with the motorcycle, but it was really wonderful to be in the back country of Colorado. The ranch house had a beautiful view of the mountains and Frank and Sheila are fabulous hosts. I recommend it highly.
This place was exactly what the hubby and I needed! Peace and quiet. We went ziplining, to Glenwood Springs Adventure park, UTV tour in Leadville, and Iron Mountain Hot Springs. Everything was PERFECT!
It is such a quiet peaceful retreat. Sunsets were beautiful. We were there in the heat of July so the house was quite warm. The nights cooled down a little bit. The owners are present on the ranch so they were available to answer questions. I will definitely return.
This was the most peaceful, beautiful place to stay! An excellent choice for getting away from the chaos and only a short drive to Glenwood springs. We will definitely be coming back. The view from the porch is amazing. Sheila is an excellent host and makes sure you have everything you need. The cabin is very clean and had plenty of space for us and our three kids.
We had a great stay and will definitely go back again next time we visit Glenwood Springs and the surrounding areas. Our only regret was not staying longer.
This location is a little off the beaten path but thatâs what we loved about it. Great views, privacy. The owners are awesome people. Very clean. Highly recommend.
This place is more amazing than it looks! The views are wonderful, the location is so quiet and peaceful and the hosts are so kind and easy to communicate with. Wish we could have stayed longer!
This is a beaurtiful place with breathtaking views. Sheila was a wonderful host and extremely accomodatng. We had arrived very late at night and she still met us and showed us the way to the property. We hope to rent this property again when we visit Glenwood Springs. 5 out of 5 starts for everything.
I can not say enough good about the entire process - from booking, to communication from the host, to the environment - all top rate!!!! The home is gorgeous and spacious - exactly as described and shown on the VRBO site. The host texted a few days ahead to communicate specific directions, and even met us to lead us to exact location. Overall, a perfect weekend!!
Perfect home if you want to get away from the bustle of a busy vacation season. It was so quiet and so peaceful. It is a bit of a drive if you're planning a lot of activities in town but it was worth it to us.
Hate to really detail how wonderful the stay was or we will not have availability in the future. Pure relaxation in a spacious setting and scenic area. Loved sitting on the porch having coffe in the morning.
What a wonderful getaway. I decided to rent this property for a long weekend based on others' positive reviews, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The location, although off the beaten path, was a welcome change of pace from busier areas along I-70. It was also easy proximity to several state parks in the area. And Shelia was extremely welcoming and helpful! The place was beautiful and well stocked in terms of kitchen cooking utensils, towels, sheets, etc. (everything you would need). We felt really fortunate to get to stay in such a nice home and my two nieces loved exploring the property.
We loved this place so much! It is off the beaten path quite a ways - as it says, you are deep within a cattle ranch property - but that was just what we were looking for. Lots of peace and quiet with beautiful views - even saw a herd of elk with babies down by one of the ponds onsite. Sheila the hostess was a treat to work with and came to the end of the driveway late at night to help us navigate the property to where we were staying to make sure we got settled in well. We also got to see her and her team herd some cows, which my teens enjoyed.
The home was even prettier in person and quite spacious, more so than I thought it appeared online. There was a grill onsite and several pans so we were able to cook a few meals there too. We will definitely stay again next time weâre in the area!
We are a ranching family that has been working the land and raising cattle here for over 40 years. This house is accessed by driving through the original ranch that is still in full operation. You can expect to see cows and often calves in the fields for much of the year when you drive through.
This property completes the main ranch, making one large parcel that is now bordered much of the way around by public lands. It was acquired when the previous owner decided to move to a warmer climate and has made this ranch even more special.
The views of the valley and seclusion of this beautifully built home are unparalleled. The home's spacious rooms are inviting and the large windows allow for enjoyment of the views. There are resident deer and elk populations that you can expect to see at certain times of the year, and there are trails available for exploring the surrounding area. If you are visiting us in the winter be sure and bring your cross country skis, snowshoes and sleds as there are hundreds of acres to explore.
