About this property
Gorgeous Custom Log Home w Amazing Views, Two Saunas, Hot Tub and Cold Plunge!
Welcome to the Blue River Lodge! This luxurious custom-crafted log home is a rare find complete with a 7-person hot tub, indoor and outdoor saunas, cold plunge (summer only), steam shower, pool table, authentic tipi, multi-level decks (and separate private deck for the master bedroom), two outdoor patios, spacious two-car heated garage and plenty of outdoor parking, big screen TVs in family room and bunk room for watching your favorite sports and movies (and a TV in master and guest BR), wireless high-speed broadband (great for remote working and video calls), acreage, forest and mountain views, and more. The outdoor barrel sauna is in the "spa area" and heated with a woodstove is truly unique and rare to find in a rental home. The cold plunge (available in summer only) holds up to 3 people and is located next to the sauna. The cold plunge has been a great addition to the "spa area" and is loved by those who are into cold-plunging! The dining room has a chairlift (Pallavacini chair retired from A-Basin) at the head of the dining table! Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail in the original gondola from Vail ski resort - fully restored, heated, dimmable lights - located on our front deck! If you are looking for a true Colorado log cabin (more like a lodge than a cabin) in the woods yet want to pamper yourself with the comforts of a luxury spa (and only 10 minutes to skiing and the town of Breckenridge), this is it!
PLEASE READ OUR REVIEWS - YOU WILL SEE THAT WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN THE LEVEL OF ACCOMMODATION PROVIDED, ATTENTION TO DETAIL SUCH AS QUALITY OF BED LINENS, KITCHEN FURNISHINGS, CLEANLINESS, ETC., AND WE QUICKLY RESPOND TO ANY QUESTIONS PRIOR TO, AND DURING YOUR STAY.
The spacious living areas include a large great room (living/dining/kitchen), huge master bedroom (King size bed), two guest bedrooms (each with King bed), an oversized bunk room that sleeps up to 6 (two full-size bunks and four single-size bunks, all built-in) and three very spacious full baths to comfortably accommodate three or four couples or families with children. With top of the line furnishings, a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen, custom bar, high-quality Egyptian cotton sheets, down comforters and pillows, and plenty of living space, you will feel like a guest in a private lodge rather than a tourist in a rental property. Whether you want to relax under the stars in the hot tub after a day of skiing, curl up next to the woodstove with a good book, snowshoe out the back door (6 sets of snowshoes are provided), take a sauna or steam, or shoot a game of pool, this house has everything you need for a perfect Colorado mountain vacation.
Other amenities include DirecTV Stream, high-speed wireless broadband (great for remote working and Zoom calls), wood stove in living room, gas fireplace in family room, very large 'mudroom' for boots (with a boot heater) and jackets, and even an authentic Tipi.
Picture windows and two large decks offer magnificent views in every direction! Front deck looks into mountain peaks and rear deck faces National Forest. Secluded from view from other houses, the Blue River Lodge is nestled in Aspen and Pine, borders National Forest, ten minutes from Breckenridge with quick access to the ski areas of Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper, A-Basin and Vail. The Blue River Lodge is also close to world class golfing, shopping, back-country trails for hiking and biking, rafting, and gold medal flyfishing. Please note that our driveway is professionally plowed each time it snows but a 4WD vehicle is still required in winter (not just for our driveway but for driving in general in Colorado during the winter season - Colorado has laws requiring either 4WD or chains during storms).
Please reviews from prior guests and you will see that they often comment that this home is one of the finest properties available in Breckenridge.

On occasion we may be willing to waive a nightly minimum to fill in gaps on our calendar. Please also feel free to contact us with any questions, if you would like additional photos, prior guest references or more information. Most of our guests are repeat customers so we recommend booking well in advance.

About the host
Hosted by Chris
We live in Denver and manage the bookings and guest service ourselves. We typically respond to texts or emails within minutes. It is a rare find -- a true log cabin in a very private setting with all the furnishings and amenities you could ever want. Please contact us for more photos and any questions you might have!
Why they chose this property
This house has great views and privacy yet is very close to the town of Breckenridge for shopping, skiing and restaurants. This is a true custom crafted log home, not a 'kit' log cabin, located on a very private lot next to National Forest. We believe it is a one of a kind and our guests agree.
What makes this property unique
This is not your typical rental house and is furnished as if it were your own. Be sure to check our the chairlift at the head of the dining table - this chair is from the retired Pallavacini lift at A-Basin. And new starting the fall of 2022, we have added a Scandinavian barrel sauna! The house also has a two-car heated garage, gourmet kitchen, large private hot tub, sauna, steam shower and pool table. For the children we have a huge bunkroom, an authentic Indian tipi complete with firepit and log benches. We provide the 'extras' that are not typically included with other rentals -- tons of board games, Jenga, puzzles, cards, down comforters and pillows, gourmet kitchen provisioned with spices and top of the line cookware. We make every effort to distinguish our house as the best on the market in Breckenridge.
