Owner's Profile
Why the Owner Chose Fairplay
I am a property manager for this home but I too have a vacation home in this location because it is not only one of the most picturesque locations in Colorado but it is also centrally located to all of the activities that we love suche as skiing, hiking, fishing, 4-wheeling, and exploring old mines and ghost towns. It is close enough to Breckenridge and Buena Vista to enjoy shopping and eating out within an hour.
The Unique Benefits of this Mountain Vacation Home
I enjoy the solitude and quiet beauty of being way up in the mountains. You can enjoy hiking among the wild flowers and wildlife in the summer and snuggle up and read a book by the firewhile it snows in the winte. You can be hiking and playing in the mountains all day and then be at Breckenridge enjoying shopping or dining out in the evening. It is the best of both worlds and the drive from Denver and Colorado Springs is under 2 hours.
