Dream Canyon A Mountain Paradise Retreat STR# 21-0013

Just fifteen minutes west of Boulder, a place of relaxation, a getaway-from-it-all place that’s close to Boulder. At 7,600 feet, it is located near the base of Sugarloaf Mountain, overlooking Dream Canyon and the massive Lost Angel granite cliffs, above Boulder Falls — this reads like a fairy tale — it feels like that too — be sure to read the guest comments.

Everywhere you look you’ll feel the grandeur. The view from each window is a blessing for eye and soul — mountains, the continental divide, cliffs, sunrises, sunsets, and the intensity of stars in the night sky.
