About this property

Best views in the Rockies. Wilderness 'feel' w easy access +fireplace-pool-h.tub

No better views in the Rockies !! This beautiful two bedroom, two bath Snowscape condo abuts and has an unobstructed view out over White River National Forest and the Ten Mile Range. It is home-away-from-home with comfortable furnishings, wood burning fireplace, and a well stocked kitchen with everything you could need. The on-site clubhouse has an indoor pool, sauna, hot tub, game room, and laundromat. The master bedroom has a queen bed with full in suite bath. The second bedroom has two twins with adjacent bath. The living room has a firm pull out queen sofa-bed to sleep 2 children, for a condo total of 4 adults +/- 2 children . ((Good venue for children 6-7 yrs of age or older; less good for younger children.)

The condo has cable "smart" TV, CD and DVD player, and free high speed wifi. Parking is easy and ample in front of the condo. The mountain views from the deck off the living room are majestic. The fireplace is a real wood-burning fireplace, not gas, with firewood provided.

Located just 3 miles from shopping and restaurants and 15 minutes to major ski resorts including many IKON an EPIC pass resorts,. This condo is served by a free county-wide shuttle bus route (with stop on edge of our parking lot). Countless 4 season adventures, activities, and solitude.

NB: Google photo of this address is in error. (attempts have been made to get them to correct it, but without results. Their last drive-by was "2012.")
Correct legal address: 9460 Ryan Gulch Rd, Silverthorne, CO.
GPS coordinates are N39°37.052'  W106°05.942' .

It is easy to fall in love with this condo and this location---cozy, inviting of endless gazing and solitude or adventure, and a great value....wilderness 'feel' but easy access to Summit County's many amenities (also Eagle, Clear Creek, and Park Counties).World class skiing nearby at Copper Mountain, Keystone, Breckenridge, A Basin, and Loveland, all within 14 miles. Vail and Beaver Creek are an easy 30 mile drive, and slightly longer day-skiing drives to Crested Butte, Winterpark, Mary Jane, and Ski Cooper.

Along with easy access to amenities and activities this unobstructed view and location next to White River National Forest give the feeling of seclusion without inconvenience. The silence from the deck, view of the beaver ponds below, and the occasional moose or fox walking by leave you feeling you are secluded in the Rocky Mountains.

In winter, in addition to the skiing/boarding resorts, there are groomed and ungroomed cross country venues and mountain trails as well (classic and skate) and snowshoeing on the many, many miles of nearby and far-flung mountain trails and bike paths. Several of these hiking trails are accessible right from the condo year-round. During the other three seasons fishing, golf, sailing on Lake Dillon, exploration of the region's historic gold and silver mining areas, gorgeous drives, art shows, concerts, shopping, and so much more are available for all ages.

Its location right on a free county-wide shuttle route allows group members to pursue separate interests but begin and end the day together.

Ideal location with both wilderness 'feel' (abuts White River Nat'l Forest) and easy access to Summit County's many amenities (groceries, shopping, restaurants, all services, entertainment and activities)!

Annual family ski trip

Perfect condo for a ski trip

Liz's property truly is perfect for a trip to Summit County! Because it is so centrally located, we were easily able to ski 3 different resorts over the weekend, all while enjoying the amenities of town and watching the traffic trying to get back to Denver. The space itself was clean, comfortable, and Liz worked hard to ensure that we knew all of the features and offerings of the condos. We would happily stay here again!

Perfect Cozy Vintage Getaway Cabin

We loved staying here and can't wait to do it again in the future! Primary bed was very comfortable (didn't use the others), the water was hot, the home clean, and the kitchen had every gizmo you need for a wonderful time away. Providing dry firewood was a nice touch as when we stay in the mountains it's often either bring your own wood or damp from storage on the patio. Makes lighting so much easier when it's thoroughly dry.

Silverthorne Ski base

The unit was clean, well equipped and comfortable. There was a winter storm the day we arrived, and the owners contacted us en route to make sure we were OK. Silverthorne is a great base for ski trips. It is a few minutes from Breckenridge, Keystone and Copper Mountain. We took easy day trips to Vail and Beaver Creek. We never got around to using the fireplace or the clubhouse. I would certainly stay there again.

Snowy solitude

Fabulous serene retreat high above town. We arrived in a snow storm, and could barely see past the balcony railing. The next morning under a gorgeous blue sky we could see all across the forest to the mountains beyond. Stunning! The condo had absolutely everything we needed, was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We’d go back in a minute.

Fuel for your soul

Lovely owners, lovely place. I had a great time here; this complex is situated in one of the best spots in town. The views are breathtaking, and the wildlife and wilderness abound. You can hike straight from the condo onto a trail that that can be described as quintessentially Colorado, and the whole vicinity is a hiker's paradise. Since there wasn't another reservation slotted next to mine the owners allowed me to come a few hours early and stay much later, to help me avoid I 70 traffic, just because it was a nice thing they could do for me. This place reminded me of why I moved to Colorado, I hope to be back soon.

Lovely Place

Lovely apartment with an incredible view. Easy drive to Keystone (25 min), Breckenridge (35min), and Vail (45min). Liz and Margaret are lovely hosts, very attentive and easy to communicate with. The apartment has everything labeled and organized, it is spacious, clean, and comfortable. Things that could be improved are the shower curtains, and some decluttering; although my kids loved the old radios! The swimming pool is a stroll from the apartment, crossing the parking lot and a set of stairs, which during winter is not so practical. The overall value is excellent, and I'd definitely stay there again!

Silverthorne Vacation Rental

We rented this 2 bedroom condo for five adults and two toddlers for the week before Christmas! The condo was very homelike and cozy! We had everything we could possible need provided. We cooked all our own meals and the kitchen was stocked with every gadget known to man. :-) The only issue we had was with the company that cleared (or didn't clear) the parking lot. If we would have only had a car and not two 4-wheel drive SUV's we would have been in trouble. That, however, has nothing to do with the actual condo. Ellen called and checked on us after we arrived to make sure everything was okay and responded promptly when I called her about the parking lot snow situation. We will definitely rent this unit in the future!! Denise

Beautiful views with some exceptions

Great views from the balcony, really enjoyed the wood burning fireplace. Overall we enjoyed the stay and I'm only highlighting some of the issues so that others can be informed of what is actually in the condo. The listing isn't wrong, but there are a few gotchas. There is a newer TV, stove and a Keurig, and the interior furniture functions, but is tired and old. Dressers were full of old clocks and random household goods that needed to be removed and we had to live out of our suitcases for the week due to lack of storage space. Toilets were very old, small and sat very close to the floor which made it very uncomfortable to use. Hot tub/pool in the clubhouse is not close and difficult to get to on foot in the winter. There is no washer and dryer in the condo, they are co-located with the hot tub and pool which is again difficult to reach by foot in the winter.

Breathtaking

The view would be enough for me to tell you to book this place- but there's more! The layout is great, kitchen fully stocked, 5 minutes from anything you could need. My kids loved the pool and hot tub. I even used the laundry facilities with no issues, never even heard any neighbors through the walls or ceiling. Liz was super communicative before our visit as well. Did I mention the views? I spent hours out on that balcony! We hiked Lily Pad Pond (just down the street) and saw a moose! Incredible experience. We weren't thrilled by the carpet in a rental bathroom, and the keys/lockbox took some extra wiggling/tries to get into the condo- everything else was just fabulous. To be able to stay someplace with those gorgeous surroundings and still be so close to amenities was a rare find. I can see why other reviewers have returned to this place over and over again. You won't regret renting here!
