Vacation Rental Description
Minutes from cross country trails on Rabbit Ears pass, or miles of open hills and meadows to pick your own route. It is a great place to enjoy nature with a walk, ski or bike around the lake. This is the place to play in the snow or in the lake---We will even provide 4 pair of snow shoes, some track skis, and a few other snow toys in the winter; bikes and boats for summer fun!

The house is decorated for western lodge luxury with a fully stocked kitchen, dining for 8, master bath including jetted tub, river rock fireplace and of course it wouldn't be a cabin without the elk in the loft. Plenty of board games to keep the family entertained and bring everyone together at night.
The home is located just outside of the world-class ski town of Steamboat Springs, Colorado, and is surrounded by national forest. Enjoy hours of snow country fun or lake and forest summer activity. Relax as the mountains light up at sunrise; watch the moon reflect off the lake or stars shoot across the sky. A photographers paradise as vistas, wildflowers and wildlife are plentiful (a great place for peepers when the colors of the aspen change). Boating, fishing, swimming and hiking are at your door. A lake kayak, row boat, and wind surfer bases with paddles are waiting on the beach. There are a few fat tire bikes waiting when you want to do a little land cruising.
Secluded on a private 110-acre lake, makes this property a rare Colorado destination. Great for families that want to escape the crowds (pet friendly). Children love to wade and swim in the water or sled in the winter. A small pond near the entrance is a great place to learn to fly fish and for the more experienced the well stocked catch & release lake is at your door. This is terrific place for a "Fly-Fishers-Golf-Trout" vacation. Once you have named the fish in the lake try a day on one of the gold-medal stretches at a nearby river. Perhaps the family would enjoy a day long raft trip guided by one of the many nearby raft companies or to rent inner tubes and float a stretch of water near Steamboat.
The trout and water are waiting...it is time to book your summer adventure. Some summer months are still available for 2010.
When civilization calls, head 26 highway miles to Steamboat for everything you expect from a resort community, golfing, spas, hot springs, restaurants, concerts, parades, rafting, skiing, golfing tubing and shopping to name a few . The property is 5 miles from Rabbit Ears pass, 26 miles from Steamboat Ski Area, about 70 miles to Summit and Winter Park Ski areas, and 170 miles from DIA, so this location is private, but not remote.
Other extras: If you need some extra space or privacy, a detached loft suite can be negotiated (this space is necessary for more than 6). If your well behaved dog or horse needs to accompany you, it may be negotiated for an additional fee.
