As you enter Cardinal Ridge, you are greeted with a beautifully crafted mountain house. Outfitted with hardwood floors, custom finishes, and panoramic windows, you feel right at home while you take in the views of the surrounding mountains. The entryway leads to a large, well-appointed kitchen, stocked with all the supplies you would need to cook a gourmet meal. The adjoining dining area has scenic views from every angle and can set up to 14 (an additional four seats are available at the bar for larger groups).
The spacious family room has a gas-burning stone fireplace, 75 inch flat-screen Smart TV, ample seating, and gorgeous mountain views off the back window. Off the living area are two of the house's King suites, each equipped with a king bed set, en suite bath and a flat-screen TV. One of the two also has an attached nursery (crib and changing table included) for those traveling with little ones.
Beyond the living room is Cardinal Ridge's arcade, a two-story game room, with 750 sq ft of space. Between shuffleboard, pop-a-shot, foosball, skeeball, darts, and dance-dance revolution, as well as an assortment of arcade and pinball machines, you will never run out of ways to stay entertained.

Outdoor Areas:
As specular as the interior is, the true beauty of Cardinal Ridge can only be experienced from the outdoor living areas. You'll find a two-story deck, with stunning views of the mountains and plenty of seating for everyone in your group. Sit around our gas-burning fire table and take in the mountain views. Or enjoy dinner outside with dining for 16, cooked on either our grill or outdoor pizza oven.
Further down the property, you'll find a wood-burning fire pit, perfect for making s'mores with the family. Gather around in comfortable seating and build a bonfire with the entire group. Relax in our oversized hot tub or warm up in our cedar barrel sauna, both just steps from the door.
