Shining Mountain offers breathtaking views just a short drive outside of Ridgway, making it the perfect retreat for your mountain getaway. In the winter, at least all-wheel drive is required for easy access. This versatile home is now a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath with a den and office, but can be locked off to a 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath option upon request. Per county ordinance, only one trailer is permitted on-site, but additional parking options are available upon request. The space There are mountain biking and hiking trails called The RAT trails (Ridgway Area Trails) less than a mile away. Close to ski areas and Ouray Ice Park! My favorite place to sit is on the deck facing the mountains – it’s a big and inspiring view. When I enter the solace of my special home, the world makes sense, my worries fall away and I am at peace. You will understand once you arrive. There are two bedrooms, both with queen beds, and one and a half baths. Even the bathrooms are unique. The living room and kitchen layout creates a spacious great room, that is also a cozy gathering place. It is really pretty. There is a TV in the living room with Apple TV to access your Apple account (or Hulu and Netflix), so you can enjoy a movie. I have a newly remodeled kitchen with new appliances including a 36-inch gas, six-burner cook stove and oven. If I were you, I’d use the new gas grill on the deck and enjoy a meal at home. The kitchen is well supplied with nice cookware, and is a great place to prepare a home-cooked meal. Ridgway also has some sweet boutique restaurants and is starting to appeal to the foodie scene. If you extend your stay, you are welcome to use the laundry room or the garage, to dry out your wet gear in the winter. There is plenty of space in the garage on the carpeted floor to sort and leave your gear. Once you arrive, you will never want to leave. Please care and love my home as much as I do!
