As you drive off the blacktop road in Colorado Mountain Estates in Florissant, Colorado onto the gravel road that winds its way to “The Boulders – Cozy Cabin Mountain Retreat”, you will be surrounded by beautiful pine, fir and aspen trees. The cabin, which backs up to almost 500 acres of private ranch land, sits slightly high above the road providing exhilarating views with almost no other house in sight (a 4-wheel/all-wheel drive vehicle is required in winter months and recommended in summer months for the slightly steep driveway; otherwise, there is parking on the side of the road at the bottom). The cabin is nicely decorated in modern lodge décor with bright fun colors. Wi-Fi/Internet service available. Feel free to bring your own Apple TV, Roku or Amazon Stick streaming device. Phone service available through Wi-Fi calling.
The living room is warm and cozy with plenty of natural light and a fabulous gas log fire place. You can enjoy a game table where the family can play one of many games provided. The fully equipped kitchen with refrigerator, gas stove, dishwasher and microwave is surrounded by two sides of windows so you can enjoy the vistas while sitting at the large dining table. The master bedroom is spacious and features a king bed, en suite bathroom with a tub/shower combo and flat screen TV. The second bedroom features a double bed. For extra sleeping, there is a queen size sleeper sofa with a memory foam mattress. To complete your tour, there is a second full bathroom with a tub/shower combo.
Stepping outside you find a wraparound deck where you can enjoy the views of surrounding mountains while grilling on the BBQ or relaxing in the hot tub under the stars. You may just want to sit back and listen to the quaking aspen trees on a lazy summer afternoon or watch the snow fall on a cold winter morning. At approximately a 9,000-foot elevation, the views are spectacular. Pikes Peak, Rhyolite Mountain and Mt. Pisgah are visible from the deck.
