The great room is spacious and surrounded by windows and glass doors to give the effect of being outside while being in, and the views to the lake, horse pasture, creek and mountains are excellent. An indoor-outdoor double sided fireplace with stone hearth and a grand piano add warmth and charm to your stay. The reclaimed wood dining table can be expanded to seat 10. Like the living room, the adjoining dining room and kitchen have huge windows offering views of the lake or views of the creek and horse property next door.

Things to Do Many of our guests stay to do a classic Colorado duo - taking in a concert at the world famous Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater while enjoying the mountains. Just a 15 minute drive away, Red Rocks is a MUST if you love live music. Set in an incredible natural amphitheater cut into red stone cliffs on three sides and a view of the Denver skyline in the distance, many a magical night of music takes place at Red Rocks . Some of the best bands around choose to do Redrocks even though it's a more intimate venue, because the experience is just that special for performers and concert goers alike! Back at the property, you are likely to see an abundance of wildlife right in the yard or along the shores of the lake Deer, fox, herons, nesting ducks, humming birds, and a multitude of song birds are all common visitors, while elk are occasionally seen drinking from the pond or munching on the grass in the yard. For those who enjoy fishing, our catch and release trout fishing truly is something special. The majority of your fish will be rainbows, with occasional fish as large as 24". There are some big brown trout in the mix as well - true trophies. In summer fish readily rise to large dry flies or a dry dropper with a larger midge, and fish can always be caught stripping a bead head wooly bugger. If you spin fish we ask that you convert small spoons and spinners to single hook barbless, which we have on hand for you to use. Please do not use bait. If you'd like to eat trout during your stay, we ask that only keep enough for one meal to preserve this stellar fishery. The fishing can be incredible, and it's a fantastic place to teach a your children how to fish, as success rates are often high. In the evening cozy up to the fireplace, watch a movie on any of the four televisions, ask Alexa to play your favorite music, and enjoy the complementary bottle of wine we like to give our guests . The comfy reclining furniture both upstairs and down invites some healthy lounging. Cozy, yet beautiful, the home represents the essence of a perfect mountain vacation. With an wonderful mix of luxury and lake side leisure, we know you'll have a stay that you'll remember for a lifetime. You'd be hard pressed to find a property offering what ours does, and we are glad to share it. We trust you'll love the lake and mountain experience, the beauty of the area and of the home, and the fun-filled activity right at your doorstep!
