Rustic retreat -So much fun - log playground, hot tub, concrete game court | House in Crystola
6 Bedroom House in Woodland Park, Crystola
This spacious residence has easy, paved-road access, yet it is secluded in the mountains where you bask in clean air and brilliant winter sun.
The backyard forms your own private park. You can relax while your children are engrossed with the safety and excitement of their own secluded space. The large log playground provides swings for tiny tots to adults. Its log structure forms a balance bridge, fireman's pole, a sliding board, climbing tires. Enjoy "King of the Log" on a nearby balance beam. You can play basketball on the concrete court or put up the adjustable net and grab the equipment for playing pickle ball, volleyball, or badminton. We try to keep a tether ball supplied, however, the local bears like to eat it. N
National Forests and a Woodland Park land preserve border the property. These provide hundreds of acres of picturesque hiking. A treasure map leads the adventurous through the mountains to an old gold mine. The map and hike create a fun, family challenge. There are hammocks, lawn chairs, a gas grill, and a soothing waterfall feature during summer. We are located in the beauty of Ute Pass.
Relaxation is enriched with our spacious spa / game room. There you soak in our hot tub - where you can cheer on your energetic friends as they compete in billiards, ping pong, air hockey, or foosball.
Since your vacation is a time for rest, we splurged on the bedding. Memory-foam on the mattresses provides form-fitting support. Sleep in the theme-decorated bedrooms for an imagination experience.
The spacious main-floor bedroom has a king-sized bed. Upstairs: 'Country Garden' has two queen size beds. 'Grandma’s Attic' has two twins, one of which is an adjustable bed that can be positioned for special sleeping needs. 'Wilderness Trail' has two twin beds. 'Mountain Adventure' has two twin mattresses inside a large tent. Finally, the upstairs balcony has a full-size hide-a-bed.
The house is especially designed to be environmentally friendly. Sun rays flood the house with toasty warmth during the winter. Woodland Park's motto is 'City Above the Clouds,.' It boasts an average of 300 sunny days per year, more than San Diego, CA or Miami Beach, FL. In the summer the house is naturally cooled when the house's concrete mass absorbs the cold from the night air. It returns the cool during the day. This is truly ECO-friendly.
In the summer the 8500 foot elevation doesn't require air conditioning. The average HIGH for the entire year is in July at 74.5 degrees. This means pleasant days. The cool nights average lows in the 50's.
Another benefit of our high elevation, is that recent studies show that those on diets can quickly lose weight and keep it off for weeks afterwards by spending time at higher altitudes. And what great training for athletes when their bodies acclimatize to the high elevation and return to lower elevation with a new endurance.
Our expansive solar windows take advantage of the sun and clean mountain air. Through them you look on to your private yard. There is no central heating system, so on those occasional winter days when the sun is hidden, you set individual heaters in the rooms or better yet, your family will gather around your glowing fire in the wood stove. 'Roughing it' never felt so good.
The home is well stocked with an extra-large, 30 cubic foot, french door refrigerator/freezer with an ice maker and water dispenser. Both are serviced with filtered water. We have. glass-top electric stove, dishwasher, drip coffee maker, large stainless steel cooking pans, a crock pot, hand mixer, blender, toaster, microwave and MUCH MORE - Plus we have on hand a selection of spices. There is baby equipment: an umbrella stroller,a high chair, a porta-crib, backpack baby carrier, stair guards.
