Great stay. We had a snow day which we enjoyed by spending family time indoors. The area is gorgeous and the views spectacular. We enjoyed smores by the firepit and made some lovely meals together. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Thank you.
We had incredible stay at the Blue Spruce Chateau nestled in the mountains. The views were absolutely breathtaking, waking up to the sunrise was unforgettable. The cabin were cozy, clean, and well stacked with everything we needed. It was secluded and peaceful yet still close enough to day trips and hike. Highly Recommended!
Absolutely gorgeous home. Amazing views. Beautiful kitchen with plenty of room. I think I spent 90% of my time in the kitchen. HUGE home, probably more than what we needed, but enjoyed all of it. Perfect for a peaceful and relaxing getaway.
We stayed here over President's Day weekend with a group of 8 friends. It was wonderful waking up to breathtaking views each morning, going skiing at Monarch Mountain, and relaxing. We would highly recommend this beautiful house!
We had an amazing stay! Perfect location, the house is gorgeous and the views are incredible! It was a short drive to a few towns to explore them too! We’d recommend this house for everyone! The hosts were great to work with.

Thank you Adam. Glad that the home worked well for your family. Our family enjoys continuing to explore local activities each time we visit the area. It seems like there are endless activities year round!
Our overall experience at this beautiful home was wonderful. We had enjoyed the scenic views from the back deck as well as the large kitchen and dining area. Check in process was good and the host are friendly and prompt.
We enjoyed our stay as the views and the home itself did not disappoint. It's a bit of a drive off the main highway, but it's worth it for the view. We would recommend if you are looking for a mountain getaway.
This place was absolutely amazing! We had the best time . It is truly the best vacation we have been on . Thank you Ben and Tracie for sharing your little piece of heaven .

Thank you Miranda, we are happy that you enjoyed your stay! This is such an amazing area and we love sharing it with others!
We had an amazing time! 6 adults and 6 kids and we all loved it. We appreciated how well stocked the house was - from paper items to laundry soap to fire wood! The views were amazing, the kitchen was fun to cook in and the beds were very comfortable. Yes, the drive up the mountain takes a while but it’s so worth it! We went to Royal Gorge, went white water rafting, drove to Cripple Creek one day and soaked in the Mt Princeton Hot Springs another. It was a great place to vacation.
Great views. Peaceful. Spacious home. Great fire pit. Hiking trails all around the area. Highly recommend Royal Gorge Rafting (Royal Gorge trip and ask for Allen) & Extreme Zip Line Combo -- an awesome day. Bear Basin Outfitters (horse ride) was very transactional - there may be better options in the area. Royal Gorge Park was worth the trip.
Our family and friends had a wonderful stay. The listing was accurate and well represented. The communications from the owners were prompt, responsive, and accommodating. The home was clean and well stocked with all of the kitchen tools, towels, and paper products/soaps we needed. The views were spectacular.
The house was awesome and the view is incredible. The owners were professional and communicated very well. We had no issues locating the property. Everything was clean and well kept. Would not hesitate to stay there again!
This place has amazing view very beautiful house as well. The owners are incredible they responded quickly every time we had a question. They sent information on the weather to us I thought that was a very nice touch on there part. Definitely would recommend and definitely hope to come back soon.

We are happy that you selected the Blue Spruce for part of your Spring Break trip and that it worked well for the full family. We always enjoy the drive up the mountain to the home as well. It is a beautiful and relaxing way to start the vacation.
About the host
Hosted by Ben & Tracie Gurtler
Hello! We are a young family that fell in love with this home, and would love to share it's beauty and the secret beauty of the area with others.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the area and its people first, with wonderful amenities in both directions of the home. Then this home took our breathe away with its instagram worthy views. Believe me you will just want to stand and stare in every direction. And finally the home was BEAUTIFULLY remodelled recently and we knew others whether looking for a quiet, and peaceful escape or an outdoor adventure would love this home.
What makes this property unique
This is our family's personal vacation home, so we have included quality amenities that we ourselves will use when visiting. This is also our only rental property, so unlike some major companies who service 100's of homes our guests have our sole attention and the enjoyment of their stay is our top priority.
