Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Louedith Watkins

This property was my childhood home and after retirement I moved back to the home on the property that my Dad built. My Dad also built the old red barn where the loft has been outfitted with games and spaces to relax and is shared by all my guests. We wanted to offer this space for guests to share in the awesome mountain views and enjoy a quiet relaxing place to unwind. In addition to the lofty apartment we also have the Farmhouse (also listed on VRBO) as well as 3 campsites, all with their unique spaces.
