About this property
Gorgeous Mountain Cabin, Family Friendly w/ Expansive Windows, Fireplace - Willow Creek
Willow Creek is in Placer Valley, close to Highway 9 leading to skiing, hiking, fishing, and exploring the Central Rockies. This home is just minutes away from Breckenridge to go skiing during the winter. Fishing is within walking distance. To hike you are minutes from many trail heads. ATV and jeep trails are also very close. The yard has a seasonal stream and willows for you to explore.
The home has a spacious, open-concept great room with a wood-burning fireplace, open to the dining area and the well appointed kitchen. The kitchen is well stocked with dinnerware, cooking utensils and kitchen gadgets and has custom cabinets and counter tops. There are 3 bedrooms. The loft suite offers a cozy queen bed and a corner twin, a desk space, laundry closet and full en suite bathroom. On the ground floor, there are 2 bedrooms both with queen beds, spacious closets and dressers. This level has a full bath with a step-in shower.
The great room is a huge room with lofted ceilings and two-story windows that have views of the mountains and the forest. There is lots of comfortable seating as well as a cozy wood-burning fireplace that has a blower to heat the home in addition to the central heating. There are 2 full baths (one on each level). The large dining has seating for 6-8 and there is also seating at the kitchen island. The outdoor area is also spectacular at this home with fabulous views, a gas grill, a large deck with comfy chairs. You can hear the stream and wildlife watch.
Fairplay and Alma are the activity center of the Colorado Rocky Mountains and is often referred to as the Base Camp for all activities some of which include skiing, snowboarding, hiking, mountain climbing, snow-shoeing, horseback riding (winter too), ice climbing, fishing, hunting, rafting, snowmobiling, 4-wheeling, ATVing, mine exploring, canoeing, kayaking, and much much more.
If you can think of an outdoor activity, you will probably find it within 10-20 minutes of the cabin. It is a great area to call your "Base Camp".
