About this property

Charming Mountain Chalet with Stunning Views

The Ranch
Welcome to our "Home on the Range" overlooking the majestic San Juan and Cimarron mountains. At nearly 8,000 feet atop Log Hill mesa, this mountain retreat offers the most spectacular views the western slope of Colorado has to offer. Perfectly situated between Ouray (30 minutes), Ridgway (20 minutes) and Telluride (1 hour), enjoy 35 private and wooded acres of hike, mountain bike, horse, snowmobile, cross country ski and snowshoe trails right outside your doorstep. Explore the fun shops and jeep tours in Ouray, the delicious restaurants and farmers market in Ridgway, and the slopes of Telluride.

PLEASE NOTE: We have a resident barn cat that lives on the property. She is very friendly and loves people. As this is her home, we are not able to put her away or remove her from the area as she relies on being outside for food and water sources. If anyone has a cat allergy or cannot be around cats, please take this into consideration before booking.

The Space
The house, detailed in beautiful, reclaimed barn wood, has three levels offering one bedroom with a king bed and full bath on the main floor. The second floor has two bedrooms both with queen beds and balconies and a full bath to share. The 900 square foot basement has a large bedroom with two queen beds, full bath, small kitchen, built in bunks (recommended for 16 and under), mud room and a cozy living room perfect for movie nights. The main floor family room offers plenty of natural light with a spacious kitchen and dining table for eight, comfy leather sofa and chairs by the fireplace and a wall of windows to enjoy the inspiring scenery. Step outside on the deck and relax into the tranquil surroundings - be sure to watch for the alpenglow and millions of stars at night.

Bed configurations:
Upstairs: 2 Bedrooms with a queen bed in each (total of 4 guests)
Master Bedroom on the Main Level: king bed (total of 2 guests)
Basement: 2 queen beds and bunkbeds with full on bottom and twin on top (total of 4 adults and 2 children)

About the host

Hi y'all! My husband and I purchased Chimney Top Acres in April of 2019. The house underwent a complete renovation in 2019 as my family and I resided in the basement. We ran a very successful B&B until June of 2021 at which time we sold the property to a lovely couple, Mike & Amy, from TX. We are now renting the property exclusively as a vacation rental. My husband and I built a home on the adjoining 35-acre parcel. I serve as property manager for the new owners. We have a few goats and a barn cat on site at the barn. I frequent the barn a few times per day to check on them!

Why they chose this property

This property is truly magical. We searched near and far and have been blow away by what this property has to offer. The views are AMAZING!!! We have no light pollution therefore star gazing is optimal. The main house deck and Alpenglow guest room balcony face the West. You will enjoy spectacular sun sets as well from the Edelweiss room.

What makes this property unique

We are in a central location. Many guests enjoy using our house as a hub for their SouthWest Colorado adventures.
