Our county permit to rent: Archuleta County Permit # 035618

Our home, a VRBO rental is is a great way to enjoy all the great activities of the Weminuche Wilderness and the towering Rockies, yet return to the warmth and comfort of your family gathering each evening Our home is ideal for large family gatherings with plenty of space for all including a game room in the loft, dedicated office and card/reading room. Even when dining, everyone can be in earshot of one another at adjacent tables of six persons each. For breakfast there is a bar on one of the center islands which seats eight. There is plenty of room in the huge kitchen for several people to be involved in meal preparation.

This nearly 5,000 square foot luxury home is situated at 7500 feet ASL and set amongst towering ponderosa pines with a view of Village Lake in the Pagosa Lakes region of Pagosa Springs, Colorado. It is mostly on one floor but does have a game-room loft overlooking the central gathering area.. While our home is spacious, Archuleta County restricts us to 10 people sleeping overnight in our home. Our covered back porch has a charcoal smoker grill as well as a gas grill, table and numerous chairs with the shade of many Ponderosa Pines, looking to a green belt which often has deer, fox and elk wandering past. About 100 yards away is a 166 acre open green space almost guaranteed to have elk or mule deer grazing in the cool of the evening--and offering an unsurpassed view of the towering North and East face of the Continental Divide.

The home is within a mile of popular restaurants and the largest grocery store, City Market. It is about 24 miles from Wolf Creek Pass ski area, seven miles from the deepest hot springs in the world and only a few miles from national forest trails. Fishing on Village Lake, about 300 yards from the house, is often very good. There is a three mile paved walking/jogging/bike trail which passes along the front boundary of the house. Available during the non-snow months are two Trek tandem bikes, a trail bike and a road bike for you to enjoy on this circle bike and walking trail. This bike and walking trail also connects to other parts of Pagosa Springs if you want to extend your ride or walk.

If you are vacationing but still need to keep up with your business, we have a dedicated office with a spacious desk, shredder and printer. (The printer is available to you at a small additional cost for ink and paper). We have excellent internet for streaming for your business purposes.

Our home has four bedrooms plus a huge loft, 3 1/2 baths, a huge kitchen/'living area with all updated appliances and a totally outfitted chef's kitchen. There is dining space for 10 at two tables close to one another and with views of Village Lake. There is also a bar which seats another eight persons. You will enjoy the stone fireplace (with a 70 inch smart TV over the fireplace) in the central gathering area as well as a fireplace in the oversized master bedroom. The master bedroom also has double vanities,a jetted tub and separate large walk in shower area. It is separated from the other three bedrooms and offers privacy and quiet. The home is heated by radiant in-floor heat, and at 7500 feet above sea level, it does not generally need air conditioning. There is a separate game room with TV, ping pong, shuffleboard and foosball. This takes the noise away from the central gathering area and provides a wonderful setting for family-friendly competition. All three garage spaces are available for your vehicles. We also have a Corn-hole game available for the backyard. Our home offers wireless internet throughout, five TVs with Dish, Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu, all in a warm atmosphere designed for an extended family gathering. The sign over the door says "Friends and Family Gather Here" so if that is your goal for your next holiday time, we hope you will choose this spacious and luxurious atmosphere for gathering your family and friends together. We desire for you and your friends and family to make special memories in a family getaway that is in a safe and beautiful setting.
