Map & Owner's Profile
Private Home, Great Views, 20 Minutes to Breckenridge
Year Purchased: 1985
Why the Owner Chose Fairplay
We built the place in 1985 for family time in the mountains. We picked this spot because it was just two hours from Colorado Springs where we lived and it was just twenty minutes from Breckenridge for skiing. The location was gorgeous. We decided to make it available for rental simply because it's getting harder for us to take the time to get out there. It seemed like other folks might also enjoy the place.
The Unique Benefits at this Private Home
Winter: skiing in Summit county - Breckenridge just 20 minutes away, unlimited cross-country skiing and snowshoeing right outside the door, sledding on the property and at the top of Hoosier pass. Summer: Mountain climbing, hiking, bike riding, fishing, four wheeling, old gold and silver mines, bar-b-cue on the grill and in the fire pit, art and craft fairs and great eating and concerts in Breckenridge.

Owner's Map of Fairplay
My wife Susan and I moved to Nashville, Tennessee after 22 years in Colorado Springs. I am a literary agent and Susan does executive search. We both travel a fair amount but like to get out to the house in Colorado for at least a month in the summer and then a week or two in mid-winter. Our two daughters live with their families in Georgia and Oregon respectively. We have been fairly successful getting all of ten of us together in CO at least a couple weeks a year. Over the last three summers we have had a great time inviting Nashville friends to visit with us in Colorado. We love Nashville but Colorado still owns a big piece of our hearts.
