Summary:
An unbeatable view is just one of the many charms of the Rambler's Retreat. This is the ultimate Colorado experience with mountains, lakes, wildlife and mountain town charm -- all a mere 45 minutes from Denver! Our brand new lakefront town home is currently the only three bedroom lakefront home in Georgetown’s Bighorn Crossing community is fully stocked and ready for your arrival. For the best in hiking, skiing, local culture and history, the Rocky Mountains are calling and you must go.
The Space:
Explore the Rockies from your new favorite home base! Two stories, three bedrooms, two and half bathrooms, and a two-car garage(not currently available) all add up to a gem of the townhome that’s both comfy and roomy. Whether you’re a Colorado greenhorn, a repeat visitor or a Denver local looking to breathe free for the weekend, there’s never a bad time to enjoy the Centennial State’s 300 days of sunshine.
Shred at Arapahoe Basin, Keystone or Loveland Ski Area, all within easy reach. Step back in time on the Georgetown Loop Railroad. And hiking is literally on your doorstep -- just lace up your boots and head outside for a relaxing stroll. Keep an eye out for a variety of wildlife, including Georgetown’s famous bighorn sheep. Peruse the listing photos to see the lake and marvel at the view!
One thing our guests love about the home is the awesome layout. The great room, one of the guest bedrooms, a half bath as well as the kitchen and breakfast bar are all on the main floor. This is so perfect for all groups, but especially those travelling with people who have trouble with stairs! The floors are beautiful and everything is brand new in this mountain oasis.
The kitchen will exceed your expectations: full of modern appliances, with plenty of counter space and everything you need to whip up a meal or snack. Brew up your morning cup and partake in the popular Colorado pastime of waking up with coffee, birds and wildlife. Everything is fully stocked for your convenience.
Weather keeping you inside? The mounted flat screen TV is set up for streaming and the enormous L-shaped couch is just the place for lounging, snuggling and enjoying the peace and quiet. And if you’re looking to unplug, the lovely view is also visible from the couch. One of two guest bedrooms is also downstairs, complete with a trundle bed for extra sleeping capacity. This bed can comfortable sleep 2.
Head upstairs to find the master bedroom and the second guest bedroom. We are huge fans of upstairs bedrooms in general, but these are especially pleasant and well appointed. The master has a queen bed outfitted with linens. The master bath delivers some nice upgrades like a walk-in shower and his-and-her sinks.
Also upstairs you’ll find a guest bedroom with -- surprise! -- rustic and stylish bunk beds. Of course these are great for kids, but if we’re being honest they are just as big a hit with adults. The bunks sleep 2-3 people depending on guest preference. There is a trundle under the lower level bunk. And the full guest bathroom is a necessity for group and family travel.
Stay for the night, the week, or longer! We love to accommodate extended stays. This space is Colorado personified and distilled into one luxurious, cute package with all the bells and whistles. Book with confidence today!
