Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose Westcliffe
We have traveled all over the world, but still love the unpretentious laid back atmosphere of the towns of Westcliffe and Silver Cliff, the ranching valley and the majestic peaks of the Sangre de Cristos. If you are an early riser, you can see the morning sunrise cast it's first rays on the mountains, causing them to have a red glow for a few seconds. This is what caused the Spanish explorers to name the mountains Sangre de Cristo meaning "blood of Christ".
The Unique Benefits at this House
Relaxation with a capital R is our favorite pastime at Eagles Nest. Actually having time to read, take a nap or watch the sunset from our high ridge is a real luxury. There is very good dining in the area if you don't want to cook. Outdoor activities abound in the area. Eagles Nest is a perfect spot from which to take a variety of day trips to other parts of Colorado.
Owner's Map of Westcliffe
Westcliffe and the Sangre de Cristo mountains have been a part of our famalies since the mid 1950's. Both our parents fell in love with the area and built summer cabins up in the Sangre de Cristos. In 2000 we had an opportunity to purchase a home across the valley with the most amazing views of the mountains and spectacular sunsets over the mountain range. It's a completely different perspective to all the years of being in the mountains. We still own one of the original log cabins built in 1955, but spend a great deal of time at Eagles Nest Vacation House enjoying the solitude and quiet of the location.
