Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. This apartment is part of a larger home built by an eccentric builder from the early 60s, a lot of it is original, with the unique bathroom fixtures, and the unique door. It is next to the national forest; you will likely see all sorts of wildlife. It has all of the modern touches that make it a comfortable place to stay, fast internet, and comfortable beds. It is close to downtown for all your urban needs.
Pets: Not allowed. Smoking: Not allowed. Events: Allowed. Not suitable for children or infants. Additional rules: Please report any damage to the host as soon as possible.
Please park against the east wall
The large house and its yard to the south are not part of the listing. Please do not go on their property under any circumstances. They are not affiliated with the listing.
Do not leave food outside unattended; it will attract wildlife
Please do not use or burn anything in the fireplaces. The fireplaces are not to be used
Do not open any windows, we do not want you getting a surprise critter in the house.
There is an outdoor area that has patio furniture. This will mostly be to yourself, but due to raking and snow shoveling, it is still considered a shared space so these services can be taken care of.
The door is unique and is all in one; you will have access to a lock box with the keys inside to enter the property.
The living room is right as you enter, with the kitchen on the right and bedrooms on the left. Once in the apartment, the entire living space is on the same level, with the laundry being down a flight of stairs.
Each room has a TV, a queen bed, and access to a bathroom. Only bedroom one has a completely private bathroom

• Pineview Reservoir is just minutes away, and Causey Reservoir (about 40 min) is a local favorite for paddleboarding — no motorized boats allowed
Guests have access to the whole apartment and the patio connected to it. The house to the south and all of its lawn are not part of the listing. There is a trail connected to the patio that guests have access to.
Please do not go to the larger house or its surrounding property. There are some locked doors in the listing (locked from both sides); beyond these doors is not part of the listing. The garages below the listing are not part of the listing either.
I do everything completely remote. I am always available by app or by phone for questions, and I am local to the area if issues arise, but I like to let my guests check in at their convenience.
Good to know before you book:
• This is a true mountain property — it backs right onto BLM land. Deer, moose, black bears and bobcats pass through, so keep doors closed and never leave food outside.
• Parking is down a flight of stairs (about 17 steps) and there is no elevator, so it may not suit guests with limited mobility.
• Winter weather: if snow falls overnight, our grounds crew clears as soon as they can get up the mountain — early risers may find the steps and patio not yet cleared. A shovel is provided by the door.
• The patio is mostly private; our caretakers may access it for raking and snow shoveling.
• Bedroom 2's bathroom is shared-access; the primary bedroom has its own private bathroom.
• Pets aren't allowed. Service animals are always welcome — just know the wildlife here is real, so animals shouldn't be outside unattended.
