Enjoy getting lost in the romance of exploring this three-story Victorian mansion with hidden nooks and antique adornments. This charming home is brimming with personality and certainly not your typical ski lodge, but choose any window, and you'll be treated to a stunning view of the surrounding mountains. The main living area with its soaring ceiling and wall-of-windows offers an especially captivating glimpse of the country vista. Ski bums will be sufficiently satisfied with Wolf Creek Ski Area, which boasts the most annual snowfall of any Colorado ski area only 15 miles away. In the warmer months, outdoor enthusiasts may want to pay a visit to the South Fork Rio Grande just past the property line.

You'll find ways to unwind year-round at this posh getaway. Chat with your loved ones over a cool drink on the wraparound deck or the front porch swing in the summer. Host a barbecue in the backyard and dine al fresco at the outdoor dining tables. When the temperature drops, there's a well-equipped kitchen where you can prepare your favorite comfort food before serving a formal dinner in the elegant dining area. On chilly nights, gather around the fire pit to swap stories or warm yourself by the gas fireplace after a long day on the slopes.

All the bedrooms are individually decorated in classic style for a one-of-a-kind experience. Down a short hallway off the living area on the main level, you'll find the primary bedroom brimming with book-lined shelves and a writing desk. A private sitting area with an armchair and plush chaise lounge makes a great option for where to curl up with a book. The en suite bathroom has a separate laundry room, an expansive double vanity, a standalone shower, and a jetted bathtub in front of bay windows.

When you climb the stairs and turn right, you'll head right into a large bedroom with an opulent recessed ceiling, two armchairs, and an en suite bathroom with a shower. The room to the left is enormous and has a large alcove with window seating perfect for serving high tea. The room's focal point is the four-poster bed and a second seating area abuts a jetted garden tub, which is separate from the en suite bathroom with a shower/tub combination.

On the other side of the second story, you'll enter bedroom four with a graceful loveseat and an en suite full bathroom with an ornate porcelain sink. Bedroom five across the hall is delicately decorated with a bistro table, a secluded vanity table, and a full bathroom with a shower/tub combination.

The staircase door leading to the home's top level is just outside room five. Bedroom six with its cathedral ceiling is known as the Willow room for its natural bark bedframe; it also has a window seat, wicker reading chairs, a private desk, and a full bathroom with a standalone shower and a jetted tub. A narrow, adjacent corridor takes you to room seven, with a cathedral ceiling, a sitting area, and an en suite bathroom with a jetted bathtub, a standalone sink, and a vanity table.

An amazing stay for 12 adults! The house had all we could have wanted! It was a wonderful time to reconnect and spend time together. We fished, enjoyed the fire pit, did some sightseeing, and simply enjoyed time with family! Plans are to gather again!

Great house
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was nice to have so many rooms with king beds for all of the couples. The kitchen was stocked incredibly. It would be nice to have some a/c units in the 3rd floor bedrooms as they were very warm but the rest of the house stayed very comfortable.

Enjoyable Stay - less than enjoyable interface with Vacasa.
The House was amazing and VERY clean upon arrival. The driveway/entrance off the county road was unplowed the day we arrived and our AWD SUV couldn't make it all the way up the driveway. Calls to the local Vacasa rep were unreturned and calls to the 800 number were frustrating. VRBO should state up front the name of the management company used if the owner is not in charge of the property.
