About this property

TELLURIDE! QUIET, SERENE, ROMANTIC w BREATHTAKING VIEWS! 12 min TO TOWN

Spectacular Mountain Views. A romantic, cozy, comfortable, well-appointed studio with full kitchen and a patio. An extremely rare find in the region. Dramatic, gorgeous surroundings. Quiet, serene, and close to town, yet a rural mountain setting, away from the crowds of town. Unobstructed, jaw dropping 360° views. Majestic 14,000 ft Wilson Peak is square in front of you and Lizzard Head Peak off to the side. See the right from your comfy king sized bed, before you even move! We are situated on Telluride town's closest Mesa. Deep Creek Mesa is just 12 minutes outside of town and serves as a significant wildlife corridor, allowing the great herds of elk to move from the high terrain, through our neighborhood and down to the valley floor. You'll see cars lined up on the way to town photographing the great herds grazing or sparing on on the valley floor. We see the herds all around our place, often babies in tow. Peaceful, serene Mesa feel, but close to Telluride town. A remote rural feel, but unlike staying on any of the other incredibly beautiful mesas surrounding Telluride, we are just 12 minutes to the great shops and world class restaurants of Telluride. The Deep Creek Trailhead is 1/4 mile up the road from the studio, with hundreds of thousands of acres of trails and wilderness for hiking, mountain biking, and exploring these majestic San Juan mountains. The Great Herds of elk and other wildlife can often be seen from the studio windows (see photos). The view from the studio and from the patio are breathtaking all year around. Watch stunning Alpine Glow sunrises right from the comfort of your king sized bed, and the sunsets are absolutely spectacular. At sunrise, first light on the tip of Wilson Peak is pink! See photos here or see it from your window if you're an early riser. The studio is well appointed, very comfortable and private, with a babbling mountain stream in the summer & fall. The studio is private with a separate entrance and a patio w BBQ and two chaise lounges to enjoy the sunshine and views on. The main house and the studio don't share any walls, so it's got good separation and plenty of privacy. The studio is the only rental on our 15 acre property. We have had the pleasure of hosting our third successful marriage proposal this past fall! This is a truly unique and very special spot!

High speed internet.
The fine linens make your stay feel luxurious and comfortable. Fully appointed kitchen. Dining table expands so create a large table for your workspace when needed. Our road is plowed every day that we have snowfall.

DIRECTIONS: Google doesn’t take you there! It'll land you about a mile off target so if you use navigation to get here use WAZE instead.
From town take Airport Road. Go 2 miles, then turn right on Last Dollar Road. Go 1 mile and you're here. Studio is down the stone steps on the East side of the house which will lead you down to your stone patio and "private" entrance. Studio Guest Parking is the East (left) space in driveway, closest to studio, leaving both garage bays open, please.

Send me your cell number and I'll send you a pin! Happy to send written directions from whichever direction you're coming from as well.

One parking space with this rental unless specific arrangements have been made ahead of time.

Peaceful getaway

The studio was perfect for a quick weekend away - we enjoyed hiking from the trailhead just around the corner. It is a quick drive into town, and even shorter drive to the telluride brewery just minutes from the rental. The studio had everything we needed! Would stay again.

Great Location and Host!

Location is close to Telluride with wonderful scenery. We enjoyed our stay for sure! Host communicated wonderfully with us, helped us with questions, and provided great amenities like cookware, coffee, filtered water, etc. We had a great time and would reccomend, especially if you are looking to include your dog on the trip! I know ours enjoyed the change of scenery and seeing a horse for the first time.

Magical

We definitely enjoyed our stay. It was magical from the first evening- shortly after we arrived. We were very lucky to see and hear a big group of elk surrounding us. The milky way was very visible in the night sky and on that day we even saw a comet. It was visible for 2 hours in the sky. The next day woke up to more Elks. It was magical. just what we need. Jennifer is very accommodating and very nice. Overall a wonderful experience.

Beautiful, quiet stay!

We loved this studio- it was well equipped, comfortable and the views were amazing!! It’s a beautiful 15 minute drive into town!! Our toddler daughter was also welcome and she enjoyed the stay as well! A great way to see part of the beautiful valley outside of downtown. We would recommend! The hosts were very very helpful, but left us lots of quiet at the studio! Loved it.

Perfect CO Getaway

Jen's place is quaint and quiet, surrounded by lots of land but close to town - best of both worlds. The sunrise is just perfect and you can catch it while still in bed. She's quite accommodating and responsive. The trail around the corner from the house and a great hike with swtichbacks at first and then flat as you hike thru the aspens. Thanks Jen!

We loved Jennifer’s place.. I proposed to my girlfriend during a picnic on the property! t was absolutely stunning and the suite is very comfortable. The bed was amazing! The grill worked great and all the appliances are nice and new. Our puppy enjoyed running around in the brush on the property. Jennifer was a good communicator and helpful with recommendations.

Beautiful, majestic & peaceful!

This was such a great experience! We had such a wonderful time and could not get over the beautiful views! The studio was so comfortable and well equipped. We cooked a couple of nights and ate out the rest. We woke up several days with Elk. Chipmunks, Magpies and a Rabbit in the front yard. The entire area is so clean. If you are looking to relax, this is absolutely the place! The Host's Jennifer & Amber were very nice and easy to reach. This place has other beautiful homes in the area but they are so spread out that we left the windows open several nights. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back.

Suggestions

We loved the location of this unit and the view. There are a few things we thought could be improved on. The weeds around the steps going down to the unit should be wacked down. For us, it would have been nice if there was an umbrella or some kind of patio coverage to be able to sit outside. The patio was to hot to sit outside without it. More storage for clothes would be nice. Since it's not an airconditioned unit, bigger or better fans would also be nice. We had a great time while there, and the dogs loved it.

Excellent Getaway

Todd and Jen have a lovely home isolated in the San Juan mountains. The studio attached to their home is very well decorated, cozy, and modern. It is the perfect size for a couple and their dog. The place was super clean, you could tell Jen and Todd have a great attention to detail. Pots, pans & additional kitchen tools were high quality. The kitchenette area is small but provides you with everything you need. We cooked almost every night we stayed and had no problems (they even had a stocked spice drawer). Before we got there, Jen had cleaned all of the silverware and plates in her own dishwasher which definitely made us feel more comfortable during COVID (and in general). The bed was super comfortable. We are vegan and Jen even offered to use non-feather bedding if we preferred. The views in the morning were breathtaking from your bedroom window. Jen was kind enough to even allow our dog out once or twice while we were skiing since she was also home. Even though this studio is tucked away from downtown, it is very accessible to Mountain Village and Telluride proper (10 minute drive from each). Staying in the mountains was very peaceful, we saw lots of wildlife and was a nice escape. Overall Jen and Todd were super accommodating and we would definitely return to this spot again.
