Tired of losing sleep in condo's with paper thin walls and so-so beds? At our Frisco Mountain Haven - this will not happen!
SNOW!! Good morning skiers and riders, this is the snow report for January 22, 2012. Nine inches of snow overnight, eleven inches in the last 48 hours, and twenty inches in the past 6 days! Today's weather forecast calls for an 1-3 inches of new snow!
After relaxing in our giant steam sauna, playing some family games in the great room or watching movies in the big screen media room downstairs, sink into our cozy beds for a refreshing and quiet nights sleep! Each person can relax in their private area or gather in the great room for family/group meals and socializing.
In the morning you can take a refreshing walk along the bike path for an excellent breakfast in old town Frisco on Main Street. There is a nice selection of restaurants in town for dinners or drinks too. The great kids toy store is my favorite shop to frequent along the way.
We used to rent condo's in Copper Mountain and around the Frisco area - and we could never get a good night's sleep with the noisy neighbors, poor beds and proximity to the highway. We've fixed that! Our beds are great and the area and our home is very quiet - so you can feel refreshed in the morning, ready for a new day of skiing or whatever you enjoy!
We have been skiing in this area for over 20 years. We looked at all the towns to be in when buying and found the best location - Frisco! Easy, quick drive to any of 5 ski areas, walk to town and get a great breakfast, walk to the cross country/snow show/sledding hill.
We gather here with family and friends so have furnished it with everything needed for you to enjoy without worry - from cooking pans to utensils and spices.
This spacious and homey condominium lies in a beautifully wooded community on Lake Dillon. We have trails just out the door to Frisco's Nordic cross-country ski center, and other trails around the lake for snowshoeing or cross country skiing (mountain biking and hiking in summer).
The world class ski mountains, Copper Mountain, Breckenridge, and Keystone are all within a 15 minute drive. Or, one can catch the free Summit County shuttle bus across the street for a low-stress ride to these ski areas. Vail Mountain, Arapahoe Basin, and Loveland Mountain are within a 30 minute drive.
Just, ten minutes drive away in Silverthorne is a large factory outlet shopping center. In the summer, enjoy the world renowned Summit County bike trail system with many tens of miles of paved off highway riding trails that can be accessed just across the street from our neighborhood. For the hardy, ride the trail all the way over Vail Pass to Vail and beyond.
For beautiful mountain sailing on Lake Dillon, you can walk ten minutes along the Dillon bike path to the Frisco docks and the yacht club. At the end of the day, it is only a short walk to the Backcountry Brewery Restaurant (try their IPA!) and many restaurants on Main Street, Frisco. On a warm sunny morning, bike to Breckenridge for breakfast or enjoy trout fishing on many of the streams and the children may enjoy the small stocked lake near our house.
Our home is a large (2500 square feet) condominium with a roomy, heated two-car garage with extra parking. The great room has a large dining table with extra leaves; a sofa and chairs are near the fireplace. The deck with barbecue and chairs for enjoying the view of the forest and lake opens from this room. Along with three and a half baths, there are four large bedrooms, two sofas, lots of floor space and an extra family room make it great for large family or friendship gatherings.
The bedrooms and beds in total are:
Large Master bedroom - 1 King on private upper level w/TV
2nd - 1 Queen
3rd - 2 Twins w/TV-VCR

Map & Owner's Profile
Cozy Home: Ski Breckenridge, Copper, Vail, Keystone, a-Basin
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Waterdance
Great location - mid-way between at least 5 major world class ski resorts - hiking areas abound. Bike paths go through the neighborhood. Easy walk to downtown Frisco. On Lake Dillon with a nice walking path along the lake. The construction of these homes is excellent so you don't hear noises from neighbors or any streets through the walls. Nice quiet family neighborhood.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
There are many! In addition to the features above, we love relaxing in front of a really toasty fire when it is chilly outside, we enjoy gathering with friends and family and being able to cook and eat with them in the great room. We love being able to walk to the kids sledding hill or to the Frisbee golf course and around the lake. Riding our bikes straight from the house and onto the paved bike path over Vail Pass or around the lake is great. We love the view over the lake and of Buffalo Peak while we are grilling on the back deck. Skiing drive is easy and no stress with such a short drive.
Travels to Breckinridge, Frisco Main Street, and Silverthorne, winter to Copper Mtn also. Bike path crosses Hwy 9 here and goes west to join path around the mountain base running N-S, to Breck /Copper
Trailhead is between two houses on the south end of neighborhood, there is a sign indicating cross country trails access that is visible from the street.
Groomed cross-country, skate ski and snow shoe trails criss cross all over here. Lessons and warming hut at lodge.
Follow trail and you can branch either to Keystone or over Swan Mountain and circle all the way back to our place.

We arrived home last night from our stay in your Frisco condo. It was absolutely wonderful for our family. We enjoyed it very much. Your attention to details in providing us with staples including shampoo,soap and lotions was an unexpected treat. The pantry was stocked with additional paper toweling and toilet paper. We couldn't have been treated better than if we were being hosted by a relative.

Just wanted to say thank you once again for the use of your wonderful home. We had an absolute blast and your home was extremely clean, comfortable, and relaxing. The weather was perfect on Friday and we managed to leave around 11. I also passed on what a great house it was to my parents. Thanks again. (3/24/2009) Sincerely, Lenny H.

My family was hosting a family from Italy over spring break and we needed a place that was affordable yet large enough to accomodate 7 adults. This place worked out perfectly. It is located in a beautiful neighborhood with easy access to the road and local ski areas. The accomodations themselves are beautiful. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well supplied and the common areas allow for privacy in the bedrooms.
