Cozy Mountain Retreat

Our home is located in St. Mary's Glacier, a subdivision about 10 miles northwest of Idaho Springs, and about an hour from the Denver Metro area. It sits at just under 10,000 feet so remember to drink lots of water. We have two bedrooms upstairs, one with a king size bed and the other with a queen size bed. There is a full bath upstairs as well as a small washer and dryer, a stocked linen closet, and plenty of storage for clothes. Downstairs we have an open concept living, dining, and kitchen area with a 2 person breakfast bar and all the comforts of home. Off the living room is a half bath, a selection of DVD's and books, Direct TV, Wifi, and our couch folds out to a queen size bed. A wood burning stove in the living room can heat the entire house but there are also electric baseboard heaters in every room.

We love animals and we do allow a maximum of 2 dogs for an additional fee of $75 per stay. Please make sure to indicate pets in your reservation.

We love to sit out on the deck in the morning and drink coffee while we wait for the deer to frolic by on their way to the creek that backs up to the property. During the summer, our feeders attract hummingbirds, moose are common, and at times black bears like to visit the neighborhood. 4-wheeling trails are abundant in the St. Mary's area and many can be accessed from our house. The Indian Hot Springs are just a short drive down to Idaho Springs which also has rafting, shopping, breweries, excellent BBQ, and the iconic Beau Jo's pizza. Royal Jelly Bakery DELIVERS the best baked goods to our neighborhood every Friday! Check them out here https://www.royaljellybakery.com/. We are a 30 minute drive to Central City and Black Hawk, 25 minutes to Echo Lake and Mt. Evans, and are surrounded by winter and summer sports recreation areas such as skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, ATV trails, hiking, fishing, ice skating, and more!

Cozy Mountain Retreat!

Yet another relaxing stay at ‘Cozy Mountain Retreat’. Don’t miss the opportunity to have coffee on the deck to take in the beautiful scenery and wildlife. We saw several moose, deer, Blue Jays and very busy chipmunks. We like the quiet neighborhood, and the cabin is clean and very comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful get-away!

Perfect spot in the mountains

My family of 4 plus our dog had wonderful stay. Property was as described and well appointed. It was snowy during our visit and the cabin felt so cozy. We enjoyed being close to hiking trails. We would stay here again.

We chose the rental for its location near Idaho Springs. We wanted a smaller town to go to for food and shopping and like Idaho. Springs. Our daughter lives in Denver so it was not too far from the airport or for her to join us, but far enough away. It was quiet even though there were houses close by. It was very peaceful sitting on the deck looking out at the mountains.
