Some Place Beneath the Moon- Black Hawk

Hello & Welcome! Someplace Beneath the Moon - Black hawk is a cozy bohemian mountain home with all the best vibes. Our intention is to provide you with a comfortable place to stay in a beautiful setting. We welcome respectful friends, couples, families, and travelers to come and enjoy the fresh mountain air. We are located in the heart of Gilpin County at 9,000 ft in elevation, close to beautiful hikes, restaurants, casinos, breweries, and so much more! The space Our private mountain getaway is super cozy and very spacious for small groups. The space has two queen beds and two full baths suitable for families, couples, travelers, and friends. Guests have the entire house and property to themselves. Living area - The living space is full of natural light and is freshly refurnished. There is plenty of comfortable seating for you and your family to enjoy. The two large windows overlook the front porch and the beautiful mountain views of Golden Gate State Park across the street. We have wifi, a bluetooth speaker, and a smart TV with Netflix, Disney +, Prime, and HBO included. Being up in the mountains cell service can be a bit spotty. We do have a Verizon cell booster, and both T-Mobile and At&t have spotty reception. Wifi calling works great! Bedrooms - The two bedrooms with queen beds are suitable for a traveler on the go or an extended stay. Each room offers comfortable bedding, a white noise machine, a steamer, plenty of hangers, a large closet, a makeup mirror, and a dresser for you to stay organized while being away from home. Kitchen and Dining - Our large kitchen is fully stocked for cooking and entertaining. We have a dining space off of the living room and a few bar stools in the kitchen that make the perfect breakfast spot. Our kitchen is fully equipped for holiday hosting and daily meals! Bathrooms - there are two full bathrooms stocked with high-quality shampoo, conditioner, and plenty of comfy towels. We have a beautiful 3 season sunroom off of the master bedroom with big windows that overlook the back deck and our zen water fountain that runs until late fall. The sunroom is perfect for your morning coffee or afternoon tea. On a nice day, which it usually is, you can open the windows and embrace the fresh mountain air while listening to the fountain outside. The back deck offers lots of seating, a grill for cookouts, and two hammocks for you and your friends to enjoy. Our entire backyard is completely fenced in and private. We also have a horse shoe pit located in the front yard! The Mini Moon Dome - a brand new feature we are super excited about. Built in October 2023 as a space to enjoy the outside elements all covered up! Our Geodesic dome gets heated by the sun during the day with 2 windows to cool it down and cooled off at night once the sun sets. There are 4 seats and a bunch of blankets to cozy up whether you're watching the snow fall or sun set! One of our favorite parts of our space is the hot tub! It's super private and will be ready for you to enjoy when you arrive. The tub is not the newest feature on the property, but it's clean, comfortable, and a great way to relax after a long day of enjoying the area! We will have a few robes located in the laundry room along with hot tub towels. Our guests are also more than welcome to use the washer and dryer during your stay. Our gravel driveway may be considered steep by some, but it does not require a 4x4 vehicle, and there are plenty of parking spaces available. As secluded as we are, we are within walking distance to Taggert's convenience & gas located across the street, but not in view from the property. If you're feeling a little adventurous, the Underground Liquor Store is also a short quarter mile walk. Winter at 9,000 ft can start as early as September but doesn't fully set in until November. In the winter months, you can expect a snow packed, plowed driveway, two sets of snow shoes, and a hot tub ready for you to enjoy. * if you are renting a car in the month of November through May we really recommend getting a all wheel drive or four-wheel-drive vehicle. We maintain our driveway very well but if you are traveling in the winter months and don’t have a 4 x 4 or all wheel drive vehicle, it’ll be hard to get up the driveway since it will be snow packed. Guest access Our gravel driveway may be considered steep by some but it does not require a 4x4 vehicle and there are plenty of parking spaces available. Other things to note Our home is located at 9,000 ft in elevation and is usually about 10-15 degrees cooler than the Denver area. The snowy season can start as early as September but usually doesn't go into full swing until November & December. That being said, Colorado has 300 days of blue skies and sun shine, so any time of the year is beautiful up here in the mountains! If you are traveling during the months of November- May, we recommend a 4x4 vehicle. We maintain our driveway very well in the winter, but just like all the other mountain homes in the area we will have a snowpacked driveway for those months. We're happy to host extended stays! Please note that reservations of 30 days or longer require a lease agreement in accordance with Colorado law.
