Map & Owner's Profile
Highwood House at Peak 8, Available Thanksgiving!
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
Our home is perfectly located for downhill skiing and is also close to the hiking, biking and Nordic ski trials. We love Breckenridge-- it is a real town with lots of charm, history, great restaurants and shopping.
This is the main ski area including ski schools, rentals and lifts to the entire mountain. Also open in summer with a fun park, hiking and mountain biking trails.
This is a fantastic place where all the hiking and biking and ski trails start. About 100 meters from the house.
Just our my back door about 100 meters is the free shuttle bus stop to Peak 8 ski base area, 1 minute away!
