Westcliffe House | Tranquil Retreat w/private National Forrest access, pond & creek

3 Bedroom House in Westcliffe

Our beautiful private property overlooking the Wet Mountain Valley has a pond, year round Buttermilk creek that sounds lovely even in Winter. Our private access to the San Isabel National forest & the 90 mile Rainbow trail along the Sangre de Christo Mountains. Hunter paradise. Fall asleep to the sound of running water & sipping coffee in the gazebo by the pond. At night light the fire in the wood stove and while you are warm and see the flames dancing in our cozy house with wrap around deck and views into the wet mountain valley with many forests, meadows, trails, lakes to boat and fish.
Or light a fire in our fire ring while watching the night sky.
From the porch you can see passing by (specially early and at dusk) Elk, deer, turkey and hummingbirds that you can watch and admire.
The house has 1 bedroom with King bed. 1 with a Queen bed and a twin, one room with 2 Double/Full beds, 1 single bed on the upper loft.
A lovely brand new kitchen to cook and a wrap around porch and deck to enjoy views and the sound of the creek

Summary: Property was as described. Owners were very helpful. We stayed a week on vacation, and used this as a base for going to many attractions 1.5 hours or less from here. Would recommend it to others. Property was clean, fully stocked, had all items needed for a week's stay. Beautiful setting at base of mountains, overlooking farming valley below. We were concerned about 6 miles of gravel road because of much rain in the afternoons for the entire week, but it didn't end up being a problem for our passenger car.
