Property was a perfect getaway for the holidays. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly, even welcoming our dog. Highly recommend you book this for your next visit to CO.
Great location, up in the mountains away from traffic and noise.
The house was well stocked with dishes and utensils
It was easy to "make ourselves at home."
Quiet, cozy and well accommodated! Had everything we needed and more, kids loved the space both inside and outside. Would definitely recommend! Great location to jump to Breck or Buena Vista areas on day trips too.
Beautiful mountain house! My family and 2 small dogs and myself loved staying in this beautiful house. The house is well maintained and equipped with everything you need. The host Sussane is so sweet, welcoming and helpful. I highly recommend this house I located in the mountains but fairly close to all the activities we had planned and booked.
We loved our stay here! The house is wonderful and the views are amazing everywhere you go! It’s location was perfect for us. It is just secluded enough but we were close enough to several towns and trail heads. We enjoyed Breckenridge, Frisco, Buena Vista, and Salida. The Pennsylvania Mountain trailhead is 5 minutes from the house and Quandary was 20 minutes away. The house was clean, well stocked, and perfectly suited to our vacation wants. We attended Burro Days in FairPlay, a fun outside festival. The ping pong table was added entertainment! We highly recommend 888 Puma Place!
We had such a great time staying here. The house was incredible and it had everything that we would ever need to make it a successful weekend. We were able to spend Christmas here and to be able to sit by the fireplace and watch the snow fall with our dogs was magical and to be able to end our last night standing in the snow looking at the stars on a clear night reminded us how special the weekend really was. We would love to come back here again as it really was a perfect house.

George, we are so glad that you had a great time! It is our pleasure to host people and their dogs in our home!
The things we liked about this place were- owners were accessible and welcoming, remote location, amenities, comfortable beds, 2 decks, some great hiking trails and 13/14ers nearby, and it’s a quiet area.
We will definitely look to rent this place when we return to the area! Next year, we will hopefully have our dog trained to go up steps or a ramp into our truck and bring him along.
Thank you for opening up your home to us!

Thank you so much! We appreciate your kind words. We are so glad you had a good time. You are welcome to come back for another visit.
This was our second time staying at this place. This time we stayed a month. We really like this place because it is quiet and near hiking and biking trails. This year we are lucky enough to see some wildlife in the area. The owners of this rental property are friendly and welcoming. this year we brought our dogs and they enjoyed going out in the wooded yard and all of the forest smells. When we come back to this area we will rent again.
The 11,000 ft altitude mountain house is well furnished and surrounded by trees, and the night sky close enough to touch the stars, a bit of a bumpy road but simply incredible and well worth it. Close to Fairplay (south of Breckenridge) with options to drive through majestic mountain countryside to small unique towns like Buena Vista and Leadville. Any questions the host will answer immediately.
We were evacuated by wildfires and decided to take a last minute Lemons-to-Lemonade trip. The host was amazing and worked with us to get the reservation squared away and us into their perfect mountain getaway. There is access to a 13'er in the neighborhood (Pennsylvania Mtn) that was beautiful. It is also close to the trailhead for Mt. Sherman, one of Colorado's 14'er, which was also a great hike! We sat on the deck and saw big deer and other wildlife and Moose mama's and babies were in the neighborhood. 10/10 would recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Puma house. It had the little touches that make one feel at home, for instance, a tissue box in the bathrooms, bedrooms and living room. This may sound silly to some, but having a tissue close at hand was great. When we first booked this house we had intentions of doing some hiking, but the weather had different plans for us. But it was fine, we played board and card games while listening to the crackling of the fireplace. We truly enjoyed our stay.

We are so glad that you had a good time. I’m a fan of strategically placed tissues too!

House was comfortable, get walks each day. Only
Negative was the roads to the property. Corresponded with the owner, she said they had a rough winter. County
Responsible for road maintenance, this in no way is a reflection on the owner, she was great to deal with.
We really liked the style of this house. It has a unique floor plan and architecture. The master bedroom and master closet are quite spacious. Because we usually stay in Colorado for at least one week, we appreciate the extra closet space. There is a nice deck at the front of the house and another deck off the master bedroom facing the back yard of the house. Both have beautiful mountain views! The house was well equipped with everything we needed and more. When we had questions, I emailed or texted Susanne and she responded within minutes. She seemed so eager to make us feel at home!We hope to stay at this house again during one of our future trips to Colorado.
I and my wife really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful property. The hostess was very accommodating. The property was very well stocked with supplies (tissues, toilet paper, trash bags, etc). Also the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and dishes. There were plenty towels, linens, bath soaps, etc. Well Done!!!
We really enjoyed our stay. The puma place is great for a couple or family and is truly in solitude - I think we counted less than five cars or people driving by while we were there.
It was awesome walking around the neighborhood and good access to hiking (and fourteneers.)
It is pretty high in elevation, so just be prepared for that.
Would recommend and we hope to come back.
We dreamt of having a vacation home in the mountains for as long as we can remember. It is finally a reality! We have one child, a 10 year old son, and two dogs. We love to ski at Breckenridge. Our son is on ski team there. We also love to hike, mountain bike, fish, and enjoy the mountains. We hope that you enjoy our new home as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
We were drawn to this house because it feels like camping but with comfortable beds and modern conveniences. The stars are amazing at night. The yard is beautiful with tons of mature trees. This house is also so unique with gorgeous woodwork and craftsman touches. It feels homey, artsy, woodsy, and elegant all at the same time.
What makes this property unique
We love how remote this house feels yet it is so close to Fairplay and Alma for shopping, restaurants, and bars. It is very close to many trails and outdoor activities. This area has so much to offer for the outdoor enthusiast.
