Peaceful Rocky Mountain Retreat @ Dream Canyon w/Panoramic views-20 min to Bldr | House in Boulder
2 Bedroom House in Sugarloaf, Boulder
Welcome to Frank's brand new handmade home tucked into a mountainside in Roosevelt National Forest 10 miles west of Boulder, Colorado. Elevation 7800 ft. Expansive views of Dream Canyon climbing cliffs to the south and the peaks of the Continental Divide to the west grace this home with natural beauty.
This one-level south facing passive solar home has flagstone floors throughout to store the heat while the welded bridgework trusses support a galvanized metal ceiling which in turn supports a living roof. The wood interior trim, cabinetry and arched doors took Frank a year to complete, making the house a visual treat.
This 1700 square foot home offers 2 master bedroom suites with walk-in closets and full bathrooms, and a great room encompassing kitchen and living area with central wood stove, pantry and utility room with laundry facilities.
Outside there is a dramatic 360 degree panoramic view of mountains and sky, sunrise, sunset and the whole Milky Way.
This entire home (minus the attached garage/storage) is yours to enjoy:
Two spacious master suites with exterior doors, queen sized beds, comfy seating, full bathrooms with tub/shower combo, and giant walk-in closets.
Great room - full kitchen with new appliances (dishwasher, fridge with icemaker, gas range, microwave), dining table and chairs, couches and recliner.
Television - Roku with Netflix, Wireless Internet
Utility room with washer and dryer, and laundy soap.
Linens and towels provided.
Ask your hosts about local hiking and biking trails.
One of your hosts will greet you upon arrival at the main road to lead you down to Frank's house. (Google Maps is known to mislead.)
Your hosts live nearby and are available by phone or email, or just come knock on the door for assistance should you need it.
Weather is a big deal up here on Sugarloaf; expect it to be 10 degrees cooler than in Boulder. Be prepared for temperature swings and sudden changes including thunderstorms, wind, rain, and maybe even snow. Bring clothing layers!
Wildlife is abundant! There are bears, mountain lions, deer, elk, moose, bobcats, foxes, coyotes, eagles, hawks, and mountain bluebirds.
Mountain terrain can be challenging so hiking apparel is useful: boots, sunscreen, hiking sticks, sunscreen, hats, sunscreen, water bottles, etc.
The nearest grocery stores and restaurants are 10 miles to the east (Boulder) or west (Nederland), so come prepared.
Frank's house has good water from a deep well.
This neighborhood is sparsely populated and very quiet. Frank's place is at the end of a half mile dirt drive. From inside the house all one sees is nature. Standing outside of the house only 4-5 homes are visible. We love our privacy.
Seasonal climbers on the Dream Canyon cliffs provide ringside entertainment from the large front room bay windows.
Our location provides the opportunity to decompress. Nature = Sanity.
Guests will need a vehicle. Any usual car is fine for the summer months. In other seasons we would recommend sturdier cars with all wheel drive and good tires in case of wilder weather.
Bring your mountain bikes and hiking boots for the trails.
