The master bed was really hard and the morning sun right in the face was a bit much. Other than that, everything was great!

About the host
Hosted by Eshelle Francis
Hi! I’m a proud mom of three amazing and very active kids, and we’ve made our home in beautiful Canon City, Colorado. We moved here from Texas (Hook 'em!) to be closer to family—and quickly fell in love with the mountains, the sunshine, and the small-town charm that makes this place so special.
Hosting is kind of my happy place. I love creating cozy, welcoming spaces where guests can kick off their shoes, breathe a little deeper, and enjoy a break from the daily chaos (trust me, I know a thing or two about chaos—three kids will do that to you!).
Whether you’re here for a relaxing getaway, a scenic adventure, or just passing through, I’m here to make sure your stay is as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Welcome to Canon City—come see why we never looked back!
Why they chose this property
With an average of 255 sunny days a year, it’s hard not to fall in love with this neighborhood. The Mountainside Hideaway sits on a peaceful, private 41-acre slice of Colorado heaven, giving you plenty of space to explore, relax, and reconnect with nature. The property backs right up to BLM land and the breathtaking San Isabel National Forest—so whether you're into hiking, wildlife watching, or simply soaking in the views, adventure is literally at your doorstep. It’s the kind of place that makes you slow down, breathe deep, and wonder why you didn’t come here sooner.
What makes this property unique
What makes the Mountainside Hideaway truly unique? It’s that perfect balance of “middle of nowhere” peace and “close enough to grab snacks in 12 minutes” convenience. Nestled on a remote 41-acre property, it feels like you're off the grid—surrounded by nature, quiet, and endless sky—but you’re just a short drive from town when you need groceries or forgot the marshmallows.
The home comfortably sleeps 13+ (and yes, I’m happy to provide air mattresses if you need them!). I’ve worked hard to make sure the space is more than just a place to stay—it’s fully stocked and thoughtfully prepared so you can settle in and actually relax. I don’t think guests should have to run out for paper towels, laundry detergent, or the basics. Just show up, unpack, and enjoy your time—I'll take care of the little things.
What really sets this place apart, though, are the special moments it creates. Gaze at the stars under a truly dark Colorado night sky. Unwind in the hot tub after a day of hiking or exploring. Or gather around the fire table on the patio for laughs, stories, and s’mores. Whether you're here for adventure, connection, or a little of both—this hideaway delivers.
