Space

The cottage has 1 bedroom and a loft area with 2 sleeping nooks. The cottage can accommodate between 6 and 8 guests comfortably.

Sleeping Loft - Perfect for kids or adults, you'll find 4 single beds each with new premium mattresses.

In addition, there is a large sectional couch in the living room which some guests choose to take advantage of as a great place to catch a nap and/or sleep a full night next to the fireplace. We also provide a portable crib for those traveling with young children.

Bathroom:
You'll find 1 sparkling clean and fully stocked bathroom with bright lighting, large mirrors, and hotel-grade towels in the cottage. The sunken tub is loved by guests and also doubles as a shower. The cottage is fully stocked with high quality organic shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.

Prepare a quick snack or a large feast in the fully stocked kitchen. Your kitchen features beautiful quartz countertops and modern appliances with everything you will need to cook magnificent dinners. We have both Keurig and drip coffee machines and provide Keurig coffee (including decaf) and hot cocoa for your enjoyment.

The dining area is perfect for enjoying a meal with your group and guests. The indoor dining table has enough chairs for 6 guests with additional seating in the living room if needed. You'll find high end dinnerware with place settings for 8. You'll find a full spice rack and all of the pots, pans and other cooking utensils you'll need to make thanksgiving dinner (or something less ambitious of course). The kitchen and dining room flows effortlessly into the spacious living room, with vaulted cathedral ceilings and large windows letting the natural light and scenery in. Whether you want to open up your laptop to plan adventures for the day, host a dinner party, or just want to take things easy, this open concept living room gives you all the space you need.

Living Room:
Soaring vaulted ceilings with open beams and large windows allow the light to fill the room.
Large stone fireplace that heats up the space quickly and provides amazing ambiance night and day
Large sectional couch that can easily accommodate your entire group
Large 50" Smart TV with all major streaming services
Oversized leather chairs from the Sundance Catalog provide a great spot by the fireplace for reading or relaxing.

Historic Home:
The cottage was originally built in 1968 by a rocket scientist (true story). We are the 3rd owners of the home. The natural rock fireplace is made out of slate stone that the original owner gathered from the Storm Mountain area of the canyon which wouldn't be legal to do today. When we remodeled, we considered removing it but opted to keep as much of the historic features of the home while ensuring that it is comfortable, up to date with modern appliances and features and safe.

Outside Space:
The cottage is situated on a half-acre of private property with old growth Engleman spruce trees covering the area. Lounge on the large deck, fire up the gas BBQ or enjoy smores by the campfire outside your front door. Hop up in one of the hammocks and enjoy a good book or a nap with the cool mountain breeze as your companion!

There is ample parking for 2 cars year-round. In the summer, there is space for a 3rd additional car if needed.
