Consistent with most Colorado mountain resorts, the home does not offer air-conditioning.
Outdoors, the back patio is large enough for the whole group to enjoy the woods that surround the home, complete with grill and outdoor dining and enough seating to have a grand picnic right at this home. In front of the home, a covered porch with benches and open grassy lawn provide space and fun for the kids without have to leave the grounds. There is RV parking (no hookups) and room to park multiple cars plus space to park the trailer for ATVs, motorcycles and snowmobiles. Fisher-people have use of a stainless steel cleaning table and sink well (located in the trees, away from the home) with water supply from a lawn hose hookup.
This is one of the most private, low traffic homes we have experienced in the area. Expect peace-and-quiet and a relaxing escape while staying at this home. Access to the home is via state and county paved roads plus flat, well-maintained gravel roads in a quiet neighborhood. Though the home is surrounded by mountains, it is easy to drive to year round, as the location is in the flat, river valley area.
There is ample parking for multiple vehicles, boat, snowmobile and horse trailers, so bring your toys to enjoy more of the activities offered by this long-standing, adventure-filled resort lake community.
