About this property

This one-of-a-kind log home is surrounded by breathtaking views. It sits on 30 private acres at the foot of Mt. Princeton – one of Colorado’s 14ers. The architecture is divine with vaulted ceilings and twin lofts on opposing sides of the main room. The south-facing sun room is a great place to have a cup of coffee in the morning while watching for wildlife. If you like to cook or need to cook for a large group of people you’re going to LOVE our kitchen: Wolf stove and range with two convection ovens, 8 burners, a breakfast island, dining area and a huge grill on the expansive deck where we have more dining seating and views overlooking the city of Buena Vista and accompanying mountain range. The master bathroom has a claw foot tub if you feel like a soak, while the other main bathroom is spa-style with a huge multi-jet shower. The house is a 5-minute drive from Mt. Princeton Hot Spring Resort. It’s also a half hour or less to a dozen amazing hikes including the Collegiate Peaks (all three of them 14ers that surround the property). Buena Vista is the world capitol of Rafting and although this property is secluded and private it only takes 15 minutes to drive to town. Bird watching, gem hunting, mountain biking, 4-wheeling, star gazing – really anything you could ask for in a mountain getaway!

Amazing property and host

My family and I stayed here over Christmas and had a wonderful time. Not only was the property, house and view incredible our host George went above and beyond. The house was decorated for the holidays and extremely well appointed with bedding and other supplies. George even mailed back an item we left. Overall a great experience!

Excellent Host, Extraordinarily Accommodating

Our group got to stay at this beautiful house for 4 nights. The host was responsive, accommodating, and incredibly helpful as we navigated some unexpected bumps in the road. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful location or a more caring host. I highly recommend reaching out directly to the owner if you need help or have questions - he is more than willing to ensure you have the most excellent stay imaginable.

Family Stay for our daughter’s wedding in Buena Vista

Wow!! We were so amazed at this gorgeous mountain home and property-absolutely beautiful and stunning!! George is so attentive and always replied very quickly. He is a gracious host! We feel so fortunate that we were able to stay at his home. We sat up late and watched the stars from the deck. Is it possible that they twinkled even more from this home?? YES-they truly did. And that kitchen-wish we had more time to actually use that amazing stove. Everything in this house is perfect. The beautiful bedrooms, loft, huge guest room, awesome bathrooms that I wish were in my own home. Staying here made this Buena Vista wedding weekend even more magical. We can’t say enough good things about our stay here!! Thank you George:) Hoping we can come back again some day!

Family gathering

Awesome! Host was gracious and worked with us to ensure everything went well. There was an issue, but the host worked with us to achieve a workable solution. We would definitely stay again, and are in fact trying to figure out a plan to return next year. The home was great, the guest house was a major plus, the scenery and views are spectacular. We loved the large deck - a gathering place first thing in the morning and the last gathering for the night.

About the host

Hosted by George

I'm a Colorado native having lived and worked most of my life in and around the Denver area. My goal was always to own a piece of Colorado mountain land and I finally achieved it when I bought this place.

Why they chose this property

When you stay here, you'll know. They don't call this area Buena Vista for nothing. Literally every direction you look is a breathtaking view - and I'm not just throwing that term around lightly. Location is everything and this house is in a perfect spot. Far enough from civilization where you can experience TRUE quiet and untamed nature - yet close enough to town where it's no biggie when you realize you're out of garlic. I also LOVE to hike and bike. It's one of the main reasons I live in Colorado - and this spot is prime for both. Aside from the location the house itself is pretty special. Log homes are an experience in-and-of themselves. The texture provides a kind of calming effect that's hard to describe - or maybe it's because it's ALL wood - not synthetic building materials... you really have to experience it for yourself.
