About this property

Mountain Retreat Near Telluride

Situated on Hastings Mesa 25 minutes from Telluride at an elevation of about 9,000 feet, the 52 acre property is rimmed by mountains in the distance with views of North Pole Peak, and Hayden Mountain. From the patio, view Elk and wild turkey as they roam the old growth aspen forest, sage fields and scrub oak. A wood-burning sauna allows guests to detox and sweat out stress. A trail climbs up for 1.5 miles to the properties highest point. There hikers are able to take in views of some of the regions most beloved landmarks. The home itself, though only 1,100 square feet, feels spacious and warm. Perfect property for dogs, we encourage you to bring them to enjoy on hikes throughout the mesa. An amazing alpine greenhouse provide a large assortment of fresh vegetables including lettuce, kale, peppers, tomatoes, artichokes,figs and an assortment of herbs to be used by our guests. Relax inside and enjoy the humid tropical air. The combination of the scenery along with the greenhouse makes for a unique eco retreat that connects you to the land and brings a sense of calm that will leave you invigorated when you leave.

Wonderful mountain retreat

We loved our stay in Placerville. We wanted to stay away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Telluride as we had our dog with us and wanted to give him space to run around, but be close enough to enjoy Telluride and this was the perfect place to do that. The property was clean and comfortable and the perfect retreat for our family and friends.

We chose to stay because my boys wanted to be able to fish. Unfortunately, the pond wasn’t stocked and full of algae, which led to more driving to fishing than I had hoped. We loved the sauna and the house was cozy with beautiful views.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 Aug, 2025
We apologize about the low pond, it has come to a surprise to us this year as well. The Rockies have been having prolonged drought and poor snow fall for past couple of winters which usually fills up the pond to about 2 acres and 20 feet deep. We are removing mention of the pond from the VRBO site all together. I’m addition if such drought continues we will just be taking our property off VRBO. Climate change sucks!

Beautiful Location

Our stay was wonderful and the cabin was perfect. Just far enough from Telluride to be isolated; however, close enough for a short beautiful drive. The only thing to mention is the online listing did not mention the $100.00 extra fee for a pet. I would definitely stay there again!
