About this property

Inviting Red Mountain Retreat, Near Hot Springs & Downtown, Great for Families

Nestled at the base of Red Mountain, this spacious house offers a welcoming mountain-home vibe while being just 0.7 miles from downtown. Recently renovated, it features fresh updates throughout and is equipped with all the modern comforts and conveniences your family needs for a relaxing and memorable stay.

HOUSE DETAILS
This 3,800-sq-ft home spans three levels and sits on a peaceful half-acre lot. With plenty of indoor and outdoor areas, it’s perfect for families and friends to gather for meals, share stories of the day’s adventures, or spread out for a little quiet time to relax and reflect on the memories being made.

TOP LEVEL: This floor has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a quaint kid’s reading nook (kids love the bear chair).
+ Primary Bedroom: Very large room with one king bed. (Sleeps 2)
+ Bedroom 2: Small room with one queen bed. (Sleeps 2)
+ Bedroom 3: Medium room with two full beds. (Sleeps 2-4)

combination.

shower with sliding glass doors.

MIDDLE LEVEL: This floor has the kitchen, breakfast nook, formal dining area, half bath, laundry room, and a sunken living room with Entry Door #2. The large deck is also accessed from this level.
+ Kitchen: All new cabinets, countertops, sink, and appliances. Well stocked and
ready to create some special family meals and memories.
+ Breakfast Nook: Round table with banquette bench and antique ice cream parlor
chairs. A charming space for casual meals, snacks, drinks and storytelling.
+ Dining Area: The table normally seats 8 people. It is extendable with two end
leaves which then seats 12 people.
+ Living Room: This comfortable room is perfect for family gatherings, offering
plenty of seating on sofas, chairs, the fireplace hearth, and even the plush new
carpeted floor. A large picture window showcases a lovely view of Mount Sopris,
creating a cozy and welcoming space to relax and spend time together.

BOTTOM LEVEL: This level has a family room, full bathroom, and Entry Door #1.
(There are also two bedrooms, #5 & #6, but they are not currently available for use.)

has a table and chairs for outdoor dining and a gas grill. The deck is also good for
stargazing after dark.

one-of-a-kind, barn-style hangout known as the Buckhorn Bar. This rustic spot
has been the backdrop for countless family picnics, parties, and celebrations over
the years. With eight Adirondack chairs and plenty of big, flat rocks for extra
seating, it’s the perfect place for everyone to gather, relax, and share laughs
under the open sky.

Note: Your hosts were born and raised in Glenwood Springs and know the area inside and out, so don’t hesitate to ask questions to help make your visit the best it can be.

This property was so perfect for our multi-family vacation! The layout of the bedrooms and rec rooms was perfect-the kids could hang out and have a big sleepover in the basement, while the adults could gather in the middle level. The whole house was stocked with everything you could think of. The location was great-so close to town and the trails. I hope we can come back again someday!

This property exceeded our expectations. It is conveniently located close to town while still offering a peaceful and private setting. The host was exceptionally attentive and helpful throughout our stay. The home was spotless, well‑stocked, and tastefully decorated. Our group of nine had ample space to gather comfortably or enjoy quiet time individually. I would gladly rent this property again without hesitation.

Absolutely incredible property with a very attentive, helpful host and top notch views. Everything feels luxurious - from the stunning kitchen, to the soft sheets, comfortable beds, and cozy living room. This truly couldn’t have been a better experience. We didn’t want to leave. Without a doubt will be back!

The host was very communicative and helpful! We were a large group but the house was more than enough space for all of us. The check-in and out process was very easy and made our stay relaxing. It was nice to be able to enjoy the weekend without worrying about a long list of things to do before leaving. All we were asked to do was load the dishwasher! The photos of the house almost don’t do it justice. There are breathtaking views from the upstairs living space (with fireplace), bedrooms, and the deck! We were blown away.

This was our first vrbo stay all together as an extended family. We could only stay 2 nights so it was great to be all together cooking and eating and playing games . The house was so amazing. The 5 teenagers had their own space with huge TV and full bath downstairs. The kitchen , eating area and deck was beautiful on the main floor. We cooked all our meals and the kitchen had everything we needed and so beautiful!! We hung out and grilled on the deck where we could see the adventure park clear up on top of the mountain! The sunken living room was so huge and quiet and comfortable where we could see Mt Sopris out of the huge picture window. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all so comfortable and gorgeous! I slept so good! The grounds around the house had so much character and antiques. We had a great hike to the river and enjoyed the hot springs and the kids loved the adventure park!! Our host was so friendly and acomidating! We really had the best time and would love to do it again!!
