About this property
Log home retreat w spectacular mountain views, ideal for relaxation & adventure!
This beautiful mountain home is located in a forested community offering a relaxed and rustic mountain experience with abundant wildlife, away from the crowds.
Nearby attractions include Black Canyon National Park, Curecanti National Recreation Area and Blue Mesa Reservoir (where pontoon and fishing boat rentals are available), Morrow Point Reservoir, Lake City and the Alpine Loop, Owl Creek Pass and Silverjack Reservoir, Big Blue Campground and the Alpine Trail, and much more in Gunnison, Crested Butte, Ouray, and Montrose.
On the main floor, enjoy the open floor plan featuring a gorgeous rock fireplace and large sitting area with smart TV, surrounded by wall to wall windows framing spectacular mountain/valley views. The spacious kitchen has room for multiple cooks, with a cozy wood burning stove. A primary bedroom is located on both floors, with king sized beds and separate baths. A bonus, full sized bed is located in a 1st floor nonconforming bedroom and a pull-out sofa is located in both the great room and the upstairs sitting room. The wrap-a-around deck is ideal for enjoying panoramic views after hiking, biking, fishing, or board games. Take advantage of the opportunity to rent side-by-sides (for anywhere from a half day to 30 days) or electric bikes at nearby Arrowhead Mountain Adventures and visit nearby Arrowhead Lodge for dining and drinks, with live music on weekends in the beer garden during warmer months.
In winter, Arrowhead becomes a magical place, with internal roads closing to wheeled vehicles from approximately December 1st until mid-April; exact dates are determined by the area patrol service and are dependent upon snowfall accumulation. Guests park in the winter parking lot and travel throughout the community via snowmobile (which can be rented for anywhere from 2 hours to 30 days by visiting www.alpineplateau.com). This is also a great time to try out the snowshoes provided at the cabin.
Highway 50 is currently under construction. For the latest, please consult the online schedule for information on traffic patterns and any detours (www.us50info.com).

Why they chose this property
If you are looking to enjoy relaxation or adventure in the Colorado mountains but away from the crowds, Arrowhead may be the perfect location for you! While we don't have t-shirt shops or multiple restaurants, you'll find fresh air, wildlife, beautiful sites, and plenty of space for outdoor activities. Situated at 9,500 ft., this mountain getaway is located in Gunnison County near the beautiful Uncompahgre National Forest. Nearby Arrowhead Lodge offers a restaurant, bar, and beer garden with free live music in the summer. Take advantage of the opportunities for fishing - including guided fishing trips, hiking, dirt biking, mountain biking, off-roading, nature viewing, hunting, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. We are conveniently located halfway between Gunnison and Montrose off of highway 50 (please note that construction may occur on Hwy 50 during warmer months and can result in daytime lane closures/turn taking; information is always updated online to help plan your travel to and from Arrowhead). Nearby attractions include Black Canyon National Park, Curecanti National Recreation Area & Blue Mesa Reservoir, Morrow Point Reservoir, Lake City & the Alpine Loop, Owl Creek Pass & Silverjack Reservoir, the Alpine Trail, and much more in Gunnison, Crested Butte, and Montrose. Check out Arrowhead Mountain Adventures just a few miles from our home, where you can rent sport utility vehicles and snowmobiles.
What makes this property unique
Perched high on a steep hill overlooking an expansive valley, this home took our breath away with its mountain and sunset views. During spring and summer, you may be able to hear the rushing water of Little Blue Creek far below. While much of the Arrowhead area does not have strong cell service, due to its location, this property provides reliable cell connection. Two master bedrooms, along with a bonus, nonconforming bedroom, pull-out sofa and trundle bed help make this a great location for couples or families. While wood burning stoves are common in the mountains, we found that not all properties have fireplaces, and we love the cozy feel of the the floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. We are also partial to the layout of the kitchen, which overlooks the great room and provides space for multiple cooks and socializing during meal prep. We hope you enjoy your time getting away from it all in Arrowhead!
