Lookout Lodge - A Rocky Mountain Getaway with Views: only 1.5 hours from Denver

“Lookout Lodge” is a wonderful place to unwind, relax, and recharge. The floor to ceiling windows in the great room, paired with its open concept, creates a comfortable, connected, and luxurious feel. Outfitted with custom log furniture, beautiful hardwood floors and ceilings, and stunning views, you will quickly discover why we call this special cabin “Lookout Lodge”.

Built in 2020, the cabin is practically brand new and has modern amenities. With stainless steel kitchen appliances, a beautiful gas fireplace, wireless internet, a smart lock for contactless entry and exit, and installed Amazon Firestick 4K for streaming, you are sure to feel right at home.

The beds have new, fresh linens and the bathroom is stocked with new, fresh towels. The kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, a drip coffee maker, a mini Keurig coffee maker, an electric tea kettle, microwave, toaster, crockpot, handheld blender, and all your basic cooking needs. Our kitchen table comfortably seats 6 and we have an abundance of glassware, silverware, and stemware.

In the family room, you can kick up your feet in comfy chairs or the cozy loveseat. The family room has a flat screen TV and DVD player with movies supplied. Additionally, we provide cards, card games, coloring items and cribbage.

Our finished upper level, with 2 bedrooms and the bathroom, is just over 1000 sq. ft. and the unfinished entry level is just under 1000 sq. ft. There is a king size bed and queen size bed on the main living level and the ground floor has an additional king size bed. The entry level offers space for relaxation and play with air hockey, an activity table and 4 chairs, games, and a handcrafted practice putting green with golf balls and putters.

While you can savor gorgeous views from almost all windows, getting outside to soak in the scenery is easy with access to the spacious deck from the ground or main living area. The deck is equipped with a picnic table, benches, 6 Adirondack chairs and 2 kid size Adirondacks. The deck is also accessible from the primary bedroom. This cabin perches on just over an acre of land so you have space to throw frisbees, run, play, and enjoy the fresh mountain air.

Whether you are working remotely, vacationing for an extended time, or searching for a beautiful change of scenery, Lookout Lodge is ideal for that needed "recharge" the mountain lifestyle has to offer. So, get off the beaten path and let the solitude and grandeur of the surroundings inspire you!
