About this property

Peace, Tranquility, Wildlife and Amazing Open Space Views!

Spacious basement apartment abutting Apex Park up on beautiful Lookout Mountain with large yard and beautiful patio. Great location as you are close to Denver and Red Rocks yet up in the peaceful mountains! The apartment is completely separate from the main house and is truly a get-a-way escape from it all. You can also work from the unit with excellent internet service.

The 1,700 square foot unit includes a family room with smart t.v., dining area, fully stocked kitchen, laundry, patio, cell and wifi coverage with speeds up to 400 Mbps.

The first bedroom has a king size bed and the second bedroom has one queen bed and a twin day bed.

Outdoor patio with seating to enjoy the views and your morning coffee. Or strike up the BBQ grill for dinner and drinks while the sun is setting.

Denver Airport is 45 minutes away. Downtown Denver is 30 minutes and Red Rocks Ampitheater, Golden and Evergreen are just 15 minutes away. Many world class ski areas within an hours drive.

Note: The unit is at 7,200 elevation so during the months of October through April AWD or traction devices are highly recommended.

The property was as advertised; peaceful and clean and scenic. Sitting on the back porch with coffee or adult beverage, enjoying the bucolic view, was a particular delight. Access to Red Rocks was a breeze. We even saw a flock of wild turkeys.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Mountain Meadows. The check-in was flawless, accommodations were better than pictured, television apps were available, and the place was cooled upon arrival. All areas of the rental were exceptionally clean!! Communication was wonderful and directions to the location were spot-on. We spent most of our free time sitting on the porch enjoying the view and the natural surroundings. Thank you.

Quiet, beautiful retreat

Beautiful, quiet property to rest and recharge. Comfortable furnishings, nice kitchen if you chose to cook, and views for days. A perfect location to explore all of the surrounding areas - from Vail and Breckenridge down to Morrison, Evergreen, and Golden. Had a great visit - can’t wait to return!

Great place to get over the jet lag and start our road trip.

Nestled on the side of a valley Mountain Meadows is a beautiful location to start our journey. Close enough to Golden, Denver and the surrounding parks but also out of the way enough to be quiet, relaxing and at one with nature. When we return to Colorado this is definitely a place we will stay again.

Colorado Getaway

We LOVED this location. So much so that we will try to stay here every time we visit. We have family in Golden, CO and they are going to recommend it to all visitors. The lodging was nice, but the views were AMAZING. Also, the heard of Elk roaming through the yard were incredible. When we visited, the weather was awesome, but I could see snow & ice making this location hard to reach, since it is nestled in the hills. 10/10 could not recommend enough.

Absolutely Awesome

Everything was amazing. Great views on our way up. Very fast and clear communication with the host. Very quiet and tranquil location in the hill just outside of the city just minutes from I-70 and Golden. Unit was immaculate, nice furnishings and patio. A herd of Elk were seen the first day which was a huge bonus for some of us that had never seen them before.

Wonderful experience

The host was very helpful and accommodating! Very easy to work with. The views at this property were spectacular! One minor thing to note, we got in after dark and the gps directions were a little misleading so we pulled in the wrong driveway but the host called right away and got us straightened out! We came out for a show at Red Rocks and it was super easy to get up and down the mountain to the venue! Definitely recommend this property and would stay again!

Thanksgiving family vacation

We loved the view. Saw deer and elk every morning. It was our first time in a guest house below the main house that was occupied so that was a bit different. The kitchen is supplied with everything you need. The only thing that was awkward is the shower. Very small area when stepping out onto it and it gets slippery.

Wonderful stay on Lookout Mountain!

Becky and Scott have created an amazing place for their guests. The property is very spacious and comfortable. Clearly, a lot of thought has gone into making this a great rental. Everything is nicely organized with a well- stocked kitchen and bath as well as full washer and dryer. Beds are very comfortable. My dog and I spent 10 days with them. The views are amazing - quiet and peaceful with lots of wildlife. Saw elk, foxes, rabbits and lots and lots of birds. Good hiking in the vicinity. It’s only 20 mins or so to Golden and about 35-40 to downtown Denver. I would highly recommend and hope to stay there again!

Beautiful location and quiet, comfortable home. The scenery and herd of elk that passed through were a highlight! The only issue we had was with the youtube TV, but that wasn’t a high priority for us. Close enough to Denver and Golden to make day trips easy, but still feel “away from it all.” Would definitely enjoy staying here again!

About the host

Hosted by Becky & Scott Smith

Host profile image
My husband and I are originally from the Pacific NW and love Colorado! We moved here when we became empty nesters. In addition to managing rental properties, I work as a real estate broker helping people new to the area find their dream home!

Why they chose this property

We love this property for the natural beauty, quietness, expansive space and the fact that we are only 45 minutes to the airport for family and friends. It is the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

The unit is conveniently located to Red Rocks, Denver, Golden, Evergreen, Rocky Mountain National Park and the Garden of the Gods but stil feels like it is away from it all. After spending the day with activities coming back to the patio and relaxing is a vacation in and of itself.
