Choose from the Keurig or coffee pot before heading out to the deck for a peaceful morning in your rocking chair. Ground coffee is provided, but please bring your own K-cups if desired.
When its time for lunch or dinner, enjoy cooking up a delicious meal using the gas grill while taking in the fresh air and a mountain sunset.
In the hallway adjacent to the living room and kitchen you will find a washer/dryer and a centrally located half bathroom.
At the back of the main floor there are dual master suites featuring King sized beds, TVs and private baths.
Take the stairs up to the 2nd floor to enjoy the game loft with pool table and air hockey. Off the loft you will find two additional bedroom suites with Queen beds and their own private bathrooms.
Head down to the basement for even more entertainment, and enjoy a full movie room outfitted with a HD projector and stadium seating. This also serves as the perfect sleeping spot with a twin over full bunk and separate twin bed. The basement also features a full bath for your convenience.
There are decks on both the main and lower levels that offer plenty of space for outdoor enjoyment. The main level deck features a brand new 6 person hot tub for ultimate relaxation and mountain views after a day of hiking or exploring.
