🌀 Spiral staircase: the only indoor stairs between floors are spiral, 11 steps, right inside the front door. Bedrooms 4 and 5 and the game room are downstairs. You can also go out the dining room slider, take the 13 deck stairs down and come in through the lower slider. Not ideal for anyone with mobility limits or toddlers who climb. Check the photos before booking.
🏙️ City neighborhood, not a mountain cabin. There are no mountain views from the house, and neighbors are close by.
🚙 The driveway is narrow and fits 4 cars in a line, so the last car in blocks the first. Free street parking helps. The garage is not available to guests.
🪨 The backyard is rock, no grass. Dogs are welcome (up to 2, 75 lbs max each); please pick up after them.
🔥 The indoor gas fireplace is decorative only. Local regulations don’t allow us to use it. The backyard fire pit is all yours.

🚭 No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property, inside or out. $1,500 fine.
📺 No TVs in the bedrooms. The 3 TVs are bring-your-own streaming: log in to your accounts and log out before you leave.
📹 Ring doorbell and other exterior cameras. None inside.
⏰ Check-in is 4:00 PM, checkout is 10:00 AM. This house turns over fast, so early check-in isn’t available. Late departures are $50 per hour.
⛰️ Elevation is about 6,400 ft. Lower than the mountain towns, but drink extra water your first day.
🪪 The primary guest must be 21 or older. A rental agreement is required after booking.
