Start planning your unforgettable mountain escape by clicking the <3 to save our listing. The entire home is yours to enjoy. Whether you’re unwinding by the fireplace or exploring the chalet’s amenities, we want you to feel at home and have a relaxing stay.
Road Access-
Our home is located directly off of 105, allowing for easy access. This highway is very well maintained with plows and salt. Our HOA works hard to maintain the roads (plowing and salting at 7 AM) and the street to our lower drive is completely flat. If you plan to park in our upper driveway we highly recommend AWD vehicles during the winter weather. Our driveway will be scraped and salted before arrival if it snows. Additional salt will be available at the property if needed.
Driveway Information-
The upper driveway has a significant incline but offers easy access near the front door and fits two SUVs. This driveway requires AWD in winter weather. The lower driveway is flat, fits two SUVs, and requires stairs to reach the home. Vehicles with low clearance should hug the left side when using the upper driveway.
For entry, there’s a convenient electronic keypad on the main level. Please note that the home has two sets of stairs, so plan accordingly for your group.
AC will be available in June, July, and August. If you have any questions about availability, please message me.
The gas burning stove (indoors) is available November-March.
We’re happy to answer any questions—just let us know. We look forward to hosting you!
