About this property

Rustic Beautiful Lg Colorado Rockies Mtn Home w/ Lg Hot Tub Border Ntl Forest

The unique aspect of this chalet style mountain home is its beautiful serene and scenic location. The choice is yours whether you prefer to simply relax without a care in the natural quietude under the Continental Divide of the Rocky Mountains, or engage in the numerous mountain activities at your doorstep. The right combination of both is waiting for you. There are three Bedrooms and a loft with two queen beds plus two bathrooms one full and one which is a half bath with a cabinet, vanity sink and toilet. For scores of guestbook reviews please click on the menu item in the owner information section of this description.

Sip your favorite refreshment in the large hot tub, while enjoying the mountain views all around you. A baby grand and guitar are included for the musically inclined. A large fireplace will keep you toasty in the winter, and gentle mountain breezes will keep you comfortable in the summer. There is a large living room ceiling fan and a circulating air fan from the furnace There is no need for superficial air conditioning since mother nature provides it all.

While the city of Boulder is accessible in twenty minutes for the normal amenities such as dining, theater, music, sightseeing, and shopping, - - - the mountain town of Nederland is only ten minutes away for satisfying basic needs. Sugarloaf Mountain Rd, which will bring you to the house, is maintained year round for safe access and driving. (By the way, the route that Mapquest- type programs often designate for you is often actually twice as long as the local route.) Directions for the local route are included in the house access information you will receive.

Ski resorts are within fifteen to ninety minutes away. Mountain Lakes, fishing, hunting and camping are just minutes away. Be it summer or winter activities, this site offers it all.

Small special occasion 'events' like birthday parties, showers, weddings may be held here with the owners approval only. Contact owner for rates and info.
A young lady caretaker as required by the County of Boulder is in a separate unit on the lower level of the building and is available in case of any problems or emergencies with the property .

The way rates are listed is not always clear to everyone, so upon your request I will be happy to provide complete rental information charges. Generally speaking for up to six people I charge a flat per night rate which varies with the time of year as indicated on the calendar, an additonal fee for each person over the six, and up to two children below the age of 6 are free. The cleaning fee is $95. (I actually pay 200, but I feel that is excessive to ask a guest to pay.)
There are two outside dog runs with sheds.
The rate for using them is $15/dog/nt. Otherwise, pets are not allowed in the house. Sorry, I used to allow it but had to many problems.

We came for a football game in Boulder, directions were awesome and deck and hot tub were great! Only problem was it was a little bit of a trek to Boulder but that was disclosed in the listing so all good. We loved the goodie basket as well. Would stay again for an awesome price.

My husband and I were looking to get away and celebrate our 20th anniversary close to Boulder, but still private. Larry’s place was perfect - the hot tub was great to come home to after exploring throughout the day. Larry made the process super easy and we could definitely go back with more people and have an amazing time again!

About the host

Hosted by Claude 'Larry' Fox

Host profile image
A Colorado native, I've lived in all parts of the state. I know what I love about Colorado and I spent years searching for the location that has it all. Well, when I found this home, I spent one hour without saying a word looking it over, then when the owner said 'What do you think?', I said 'Sold.' And I've been sold on it ever since. I actually get excited with the thought of vacation renters enjoying my place. (No, I do not stay here when it is rented to you.) I love sharing the specialness of my home. Everything special about Colorado is within immediate reach from this location. The dramatic and rugged wilderness of the Continental Divide, to the cultured sophisticated amenities of the City of Boulder. Anything you're in the mood for is only minutes away.

Why they chose this property

As I said in my profile, I bought this home because in itself and in its surroundings, it constitutes the best of Colorado. This is my home and not merely a 'rental', but of course I do not stay here when I rent it out to you..

What makes this property unique

In the summer I love the balmy gentle warm breezes so much that I never want to go to bed.
In the winter the snow is beautiful and the occasional moose and elk herd that surrounds the house is a real treat to see.
