New! Pet Friendly/Family Friendly Retreat with Epic Mountain Views - Horizon Ridge

Welcome to the Horizon Ridge Retreat!

From the moment you step onto the grounds of Horizon Ridge, the incredible views of the Mosquito Range will take your breath away! Located at an elevation of 11,362 ft, the surrounding pines give way to majestic mountain and valley views for as far as the eye can see.

Step through the door of your Park County retreat and relish in the peace and tranquility of this heavenly home with your furry family and your loved ones by your side. The classic mountain cabin offers an open-concept Kitchen and Great Room with floor to ceiling windows filled with beautiful mountain views. The well appointed Kitchen features stainless steel appliances, plentiful counter space and is stocked with all the cooking and baking gadgets and accouterments you might need to whip up a delicious meal. Start your day off with a fresh and tasty brew while you enjoy the beautiful views from the spacious, elevated deck or sink into one of the cozy couches of the Great Room. With vaulted ceilings, the bright and cheerful Great Room offers plush overstuffed seating, centered around a television and an easy-to-use gas fireplace. At the adjacent dining table, settle in for meal time or a fun board game, with comfortable seating for 6, while there is additional high-top seating for 2 at the nearby Kitchen bar. Down the Hallway, The Central Bathroom offers a standard vanity, toilet and a bathtub/shower combo where you can choose to start your day with a quick refreshing rinse, or sink in for a long soak after days filled with fun and adventure. The spacious Master Suite at the end of the hallway, offers woodland views through a large window, custom log furniture, a comfortable king size bed, access to a private deck and an En Suite Bathroom that features a double vanity, toilet and a large shower. Across the hallway, the Bear Bedroom features a large dresser and closet with a plush queen size bed fitted with our cozy cotton bed linens. Relish in the classic mountain cabin decor, with thoughtful accents, and unique personal touches throughout the house that will have you feeling right at home.

Down the stairs to the ground floor of the house, you'll find a spacious entertainment room with comfortable leather seating centered around a corner wood stove and television. There's something fun for everyone, whether you choose to snuggle in next to the wood stove with a great book, gather for a favorite movie, challenge a friend to a competitive game of darts or choose from the numerous board games and card games available. The sliding glass door grants access to the Side Deck, while directly across the Entertainment Room, you'll find a Ground Floor Bathroom and corner Bedroom. The Ground Floor Bathroom offers a standard vanity, toilet and a bathtub/shower combo. The Fisherman's Nook Bedroom features a large dresser, spacious closet and a queen size bed outfitted with rustic fisherman's decor. Wake well-rested and refreshed after a great night's sleep on our cozy cotton bed linens. The Ground floor of the home has a neat and orderly Laundry Room with a washer and dryer available for guest use, so no need to waste precious vacation time making trips to the laundromat in town. Guests also have access to one bay of the garage (a rare find for rentals in this area!) that makes loading and unloading all the necessary gear for your high alpine adventures a breeze.

With multiple deck spaces to choose from, there is plenty of room for everyone to spread out, relax and unwind. The primary elevated deck is easily accessed from the Great Room and offers a Propane BBQ grill, patio furniture for summertime lounging and a large gas fire pit backed by breathtaking mountain views. The other deck spaces are quiet and secluded areas, perfect for a quiet afternoon of rest and relaxation. Valley of the Sun is home to a variety of wildlife and this spectacular location affords opportunities to observe moose, elk, deer and foxes (just to name a few of the critters!) right on the property.

The driveway is plowed in the winter and the roadways are maintained by the county, but 4-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES ARE REQUIRED from November through May due to the frequent snow storms in this area.

Park County is an activity center of the Colorado Rocky Mountains, it's a great "base camp!" If you can think of an outdoor activity, you will probably find it within 10-20 minutes of the cabin. Activities include skiing, snowboarding, hiking, mountain climbing, snow-shoeing, horseback riding (winter too!), ice climbing, fishing, hunting, rafting, snowmobiling, 4-wheeling, mine exploration, canoeing, kayaking, and much much more.

Beautiful & Comfortable Cabin
We had a wonderful time at Horizon Ridge! Beautiful views and the cabin felt like home. Super comfortable beds and my husband now wants a reclining sofa! I loved that the kitchen had everything you could need and my boys had a blast working on the puzzles!

Horizon Ridge stay was great
We rented Horizon Ridge northwest of Fairplay for 9 nights in late September 2024. Our experience was great. The house was as described. They provided all the information needed on a timely basis. They checked in with us during our stay to see if we needed anything. I can't think of anything else they could have done to make our stay more pleasant. The views were exceptional. The house was way more than we needed of course but it was great having so much room. I'm not sure how the location, property and experience could have been better.

Fantastic!
We've stayed at several cabins in the Fairplay area, and this one ranks WAY up there--like 11,460 ft up there. Rarefied air. In all seriousness, this is a great property. It's quiet and private, but with a few cabins nearby so you don't feel completely isolated. Very safe vibe. We liked being able to pull our vehicle into the garage to avoid bear issues. Furniture and decor is all super comfortable and the kitchen is nicely equipped. We spent a lot of time out on the deck, and small details like a gate at the top to keep the pup from wandering off just made things easier and more relaxing. I wish we could have stayed a week instead of three nights. We'll be back! One thing I did not see mentioned in the description is that this cabin is located about a half mile down the road from the start of the Pennsylvania Mountain trailhead and the top of the Pika trail. So, if you enjoy a stroll through an alpine meadow with beautiful flowers or hiking up another 1500 feet or so to a mountain peak, that's all right nearby, within walking distance.

Be prepared during snow season.
Beautiful. Take serious the descriptions. We were warned about MUST HAVE 4WD and we thought we'd be fine as amateurs form south. We weren't. Thanks to local taxi and towing, we did thoroughly enjoy our stay.

Perfect getaway!!
Me and my wife decided the weekend before Labor day weekend to try and find a place in Colorado for us and our 2 dogs to go close to where we could hike and take our Jeep on some trails. Sooo glad we found this place! The only negative thing was we couldn't use the master bedroom ceiling fan/light or the breaker would flip. There is a lamp in there though which was perfectly fine since we were only there to sleep. The view from the top deck is absolutely beautiful!! We would definitely stay here again!
