About this property

Eagle Vista

At elevation 9,300, enjoy a jaw-dropping view of the Sangre de Cristo mountains. The wind sings through the pines and wildlife abounds. No mosquitos, just hummingbirds! We provide lots of info about fun places and experiences within striking distance. In the cabin is an eclectic collection of music, decor, games, puzzles, and books - much of that with a Western/Old West theme.

It is not difficult to imagine being alone at the top of the world in the cabin, although there are neighbors several acres away. Eagle Vista is a solidly built, old-style cabin with glowing honey pine throughout. It is a work of Western art unto itself, with Western art on display inside. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The colorful decor is mostly Western with some "country" around the edges, interesting and unique items down to almost every lamp and hook. It's just plain fun to see and experience! The six acres surrounding the cabin are a classic mountain combination of pines, sage, and beautiful rocks. Saddle up! Your next great memories await you here.

Please note that the second and third "bedrooms" in the loft are not officially separate rooms. Elsewhere in the listing we refer to them as "sleeping spaces." Western blankets hang over the railing to provide privacy since the living room is below. It feels cozy and private enough for family and friends. The fourth "bedroom" (sleeping space) is the pull-out sofa in the living room, queen size.

HOUSE MANUAL
We will share a detailed house manual when you book the cabin. That way there are no surprises. A cabin experience is much different than city apartments and houses. The manual offers much more information than we can plug into this "Welcome Guide." The details include guidelines for safety and security, helpful tips about things in and around the cabin, and a lengthy "fun stuff" list of places and activities in the area. On request, we can provide an additional document listing even more information. All this is our way of helping you be fully informed, assured, safe, and entertained for the best possible experience at Eagle Vista.

Gorgeous mountain gem!
We loved our stay here! Incredible views, and a beautiful property. Perfect for our two families to relax and for our kids to play in the snow. Lots of thoughtful touches and a fun selection of games and puzzles. We are already looking forward to the next time we can visit!

Scenic beauty, quiet, wildlife

What makes this property unique

The cabin is eclectic, colorful, interesting, fun, and "rustic without roughing it." We think where you stay should be a big part of the travel experience, part of a cherished memory. We could have gone with a place that is much more generic and "run of the mill," but that is not us - and probably not you!
