The grand, spacious kitchen will likely be a centerpiece of your laughs and memories as it frequently acts as a sort of great room. Enjoy the beauty of the outdoors, even from inside the home, with the large sliding glass doors and many windows. The pictures just do not do the house or views justice.
The Adirondack chairs on the porches are great for bird watching, mountain viewing, stargazing, reading and just plain sitting. The hot tub is a great place for stargazing and unwinding after a day of adventures. You will want to take in the views from every room in the house, ogle at the western sky near sunset, watch the changing clouds and shades of pink over the mountains, relax on the porches, soak in the camaraderie of the kitchen space, take walks around the property and vicinity, stare at the fire as it dances in the outdoor wood fireplace, and gaze at the milky way and stars at night. These will be the best of times shared with your friends and family. Go play all day in this southwestern playground, and come back to enjoy the camaraderie and space of this gorgeous home. Don't be surprised to see deer on the drive or on the property. The eagles’ nest (and hopefully the eagles) can be seen from the road on the way to the home, just past Bauer Lake. You’ll certainly be able to find the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation you desire at this stunning home in such a breathtaking area.
Close to Durango (30 minutes), Telluride (90 minutes), Mesa Verde National Park Entrance (10 minutes), the San Juan National Forest (5 minutes), Purgatory Mountain (1 hour), Arches National Park (2.5 hours), and the San Juan Skyway (233 mile loop in SW Colorado). You will have access to more than your fill (but you may never want to leave the property). Mancos is a quaint little western town 3.5 miles from the home with all the essentials and then some. Fahrenheit Coffee Roasters, the local coffee shop; Olio, a ten-table, reservation-only restaurant and wine bar; Absolute Bakery, a favorite for breakfast and lunch; are all worthy of note. Mancos also has a small local grocery, liquor store, a brew pub, additional restaurants, a yoga studio, a spa for a massage or facial, a paint your own shop, a park, and more.
