Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Mark Mueller
I am originally from Wisconsin (Go Pack!). I moved to the Colorado mountains in 2018 to find a place that when I put my computer away, it felt like I was on vacation.
I am a part time consultant and host. Since early 2020 I have been fortunate to provide an escape for guests. I care immensely about guest experience and work hard to provide thoughtful hospitality. I love meeting guests and am open to socializing but I will default to privacy.
I am also a Superhost on Airbnb and are continuously improving the guest experience.

Why they chose this property
I love this home; it is not just another place to rent. This mountain home has a fun history (first guest was a bear) and truly embodies the "Cozy Nook Cabins" theme. I was purposeful to design a cozy escape - e.g. a conversation only space by the fire, a lone rocking chair for personal time, to a large smart TV with a 90s N64 for social time.
Enjoy beautiful views without stepping out of the house and the 10 acres of land to explore more views of the national forest and mountain range.

What makes this property unique
Wake up in the morning on your own time. The quiet is only broken by the hum of birds and the rush of the river down the ravine. Step out onto the deck to take in the smell of the forest in the cool morning air. Grab coffee and take a walk to the outlook. On your way say hi to the deer, fox, and more. Take a seat on the boulders with an unobstructed view of the mountain range. Notice how everyday the setting of the mountain range changes from fog rolling through to the winter wonderland snowfall.
During the day, hit the dirt roads to go hiking or winery/brewery exploring in Bailey. It is your day to take on.
Late at night, load the fire burning stove to feel the cozy heat on your feet. Get lost in the flame's flicker. Enjoy a drink and comfortable conversation with your loved ones or grab some board games to add some fun competition.
