About this property
Kirkwood Mountainside Cottage - Walk to Lifts
Summary:
Escape to a cozy cottage nestled in the heart of Kirkwood — perfect for your mountain adventure. This charming retreat offers a comfortable stay with radiant floor heating, two plush queen beds, a fully equipped kitchen, and stunning mountain views from the outdoor deck. Ideally located between Timber Creek (5-min walk) and Kirkwood Village (10-min walk). Ski to the bottom of the driveway via Home Run Trail.
The Space:
The bedroom is comfortably appointed with two queen beds, a full dresser for storage, and a TV for relaxing at the end of the day.
The inviting living area features two futon sofas for additional sleeping space (please note linens are not providing for the futons), a dining table for shared meals, and a fully equipped kitchen (excluding a dishwasher) with everything you need to prepare and enjoy home-cooked meals. A TV and Bluetooth stereo provide easy entertainment options.
Step outside to the covered deck and enjoy fresh mountain air year-round, complete with a gas grill and outdoor seating — perfect for après-ski evenings and morning coffee.
TVs include Hulu (full cable package), Netflix and Disney+ already registered.
Property is a corner unit in a culdesac, and is located around the lower deck of the home with a private entrance. This is a downstairs unit, some sound may transmit from neighbors above. Cottage is compact in size.
Parking: The designated parking spot is located along the private driveway (uncovered). No parking is allowed in the culdesac, this area must be kept clear for emergency vehicles and snow removal during the winter season.
The Neighborhood:
Located in Kirkwood, this cabin is in the mountains. Kirkwood Mountain Resort and TC Express Ski Lift are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Eldorado National Forest. Discover the area's water adventures with kayaking and fishing nearby, or enjoy the great outdoors with mountain climbing and mountain biking.
General Store open all year.
