GREAT ROOM:
The architectural Prow design magnifies and surrounds you with stunning panoramic mountain views. The 20' soaring picture windows Immerse you in nature - watch for wildlife as you hang out after an activity-filled day.
" ... the scenery is breathtaking as you wake up in the morning and you're greeted by the warm sunshine and fabulous mountain range."
(Frank, Airbnb review)
"Open beam and natural wood accents, large windows and enough room for the whole family."
(Anthony, google review)
Adjoining living and family rooms each have leather seating, handy tables, TV and sound system.
The dining table is large enough for everyone to eat together (we make puzzles at one end and dine at the other). It's also perfect for corporate meetings.
"... Great location and great view of the mountains, and I’ve never seen a table that big!" (Liam)
" ...the dinner table made us feel like royalty when we had our meals."
(Kyle - corporate retreat)
KITCHEN
Our family loves to cook, so the knotty craftsman kitchen is especially well equipped. It has another entrance - handy for bringing in groceries & bbq access. The raised counter has stools for 4 helpers.
Here are some of the kitchen amenities:
- dishwasher, oven, fridge/freezer, microwave
- 4-slice toaster, ninja blender, stand mixer, double waffle maker, 14-cup coffee maker, grinder, water kettle
- dishes, glasses & cutlery for 20+
🤍 "... “Nice quality dishes and lots of them." (Leslie)
- large choice of pots & pans of all sizes
- many cooking utensils (list on request)
- spice rack; pantry items
Cooks will appreciate less foot traffic in the kitchen due to the convenient separate beverage area with 2nd full fridge.
"... the kitchen has everything you could need or want, AND there are 2 fridges!! SO handy!"

EXPERIENCE:
Ski in... right to the house, then enter through one of two foyers to shed your gear. In spring, open the door and follow the creek up Tod Mountain to find peaceful walking trails through the woods and alpine meadows.
It's impossible to overstate the grandeur of our open-air hot tub. Star gaze in the evening, watch skiers glide by in winter - or listen to the creek in spring, and sit in awe any time of year and soak in the majestic view before you. The surrounding evergreen trees also offer privacy.
A barbeque area overlooks the hot tub.
The spacious front deck is situated to take in the panoramic view; relax on adirondack chairs while watching for wildlife or playing games.
TIP: It has been the site of wedding ceremonies!
" ...We are currently on the deck videoing a mama bear and her cubs playing in the tree across the stream!! Amazing!!"
