About this property
Lake George! One of Colorados best kept secrets, an outdoor enthusiast dream!
The Nest is a studio apartment with kitchette located directly above The Ponderosa Country Store, Lake George Colorado. Conveniently located right off Hwy 24 and minutes away from world class fishing at Anterio, Tarryall, Eleven Mile and Spinney reservoir's. OTV'ers will find never ending trails up the 717, in Rampart, over Hackett and on to China Wall. Wildlife enthusiasts, just walk out the back door to view bald eagles, elk, moose, antelope, bear, bob cat and many other Colorado natives that live in the Pikes Peak National forest! Garden of the Gods, Pike's Peak, Manitou Springs, The Incline, Cave of the Winds, and The Cliff Dwelling are also popular destinations under 30 miles. Just over Wilkerson Pass you'll be in Buena Vista, Fairplay, or Breckenridge. Adventure awaits and you'll be ready for it after a cozy nights stay at The Nest!
