*** THE SPACE ***
✨ In the Italian Alps, a rifugio is a mountain refuge — a place where hikers come in from the wilderness to find warmth, good rest, and the comfort they've earned after a long day in nature. That's exactly what we built here: an independent apartment within our home, with its own private entrance and everything you need to recharge.
🌍 A home with a story: after the Marshall Fire, we rebuilt with compressed earth block (CEB) — an ancient natural building technique — making this the only fire-resilient earth home rebuilt in the burn area. No toxic materials anywhere: the thick earthen walls are naturally fire-resistant, breathable, and quiet, keeping the apartment cool in summer and warm in winter. A healthy home, from the walls in.
🧖 Your private infrared sauna is the centerpiece of recovery. Soothe tired muscles after hiking, skiing, or mountain biking — your own personal spa, available anytime.
🛏️ Two bedrooms designed for real rest — a king and a queen, both with plant-based hypoallergenic memory foam mattresses and 55" 4K TVs with all major streaming.
🛋️ A warm living room with a 65" 4K entertainment center — your home base after big days outside.
🍳 A well-stocked kitchen with everything you need to fuel your adventures.
🧺 In-unit washer/dryer with eco-friendly detergents — perfect for refreshing gear after trail days.
🌡️ Individual mini-split climate control in every room and heated bathroom floor for warm mornings.
🌐 Gigabit WiFi for planning tomorrow's route or staying connected.
📍 Trail access begins steps from your door. Boulder is 10 minutes away, Denver 20, and Rocky Mountain National Park just 50. Target, Starbucks, and Whole Foods are all within walking distance.
