The Power Plant

Welcome traveler!

Come stay at the original Power Plant of Canon City, built in 1890. Enjoy the 13' ceilings, large windows with mountain views, and oversized kitchen with lots of space to create. King bed with large smart TV. Pass thru the main bedroom to Bunk Bed Room (also with Smart TV) - good for families and close friends. W/D. Walk in shower. Nice little patio out front.

The space

This place is so cool! Built in 1890, it's filled with character and history. We are located in the historic district - not in a traditional neighborhood. Slightly industrial with the train depot and Alta next door, but set back enough to provide privacy and exclusivity. It's fantastic for walkability to the town's historic Main Street (1.5 blocks) and the delightful Arkansas River walk trail (5 minute walk). About the same to the popular Royal Gorge Train ride.

The home feels like a loft with 13' ceilings and an open floor plan. There's bead board on the walls and ceiling. Main living are has huge wall mounted flat screen TV and leather couch. There's a vintage hifi stereo system with turn table and smart phone cable jack. Mid-century modern decor including tulip dining table and Eames type chairs. We also have a desk area.

The kitchen has been updated and expanded with lots of counter space for cooking or other projects. Fully furnished with pots and pans as well as spices and other essential equipment like coffee maker and water kettle. We've got nice knives and cutting boards.

The main bedroom features 4 windows and gets beautiful morning light. The king bed has a down comforter and organic cotton sheets. There's a huge flat screen smart TV. Knock off Eames lounger completes the space.

Pass through the main bedroom to the Bunk Bed room, featuring a queen bed on the bottom and a twin on the top. A third smart TV sits on the dresser. (You must walk through the main bedroom to get to the Bunk Room). See last photo for floor plan.

The bathroom has a walk in shower with excellent water pressure. We provide shampoo, conditioner and body wash as well as a hair dryer. Laundry is available.

Out front there's a great little patio deck with a couple of chairs and a few plants. And an ashtray.

You may park right outside the front door. Roll your luggage in. No steps.

Owner's private art studio and workshop located next door. Owner's do NOT live on site but are just a few minutes away. We self manage and take great pride in providing exceptional value and experience.

With just one bathroom and vintage plumbing, this is not a place for gathering other than registered guests. Please do not plan family reunions or cookouts. This will pose a problem. Thank you for understanding and respecting our property.
