Spacious Lodge with Spectacular Views and Nearby Attractions | House in Dolores
6 Bedroom House in Dolores
Bear Creek Mountain Lodge has been our family’s home for the past 50+ years. We are happily offering this spacious home for others to enjoy with family and friends. The lodge can accommodate groups up to 20 with 2 fully-equipped kitchens, a large dining room that seats 20, 6 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, 3 three-quarter bathrooms, and a deck with incredible views. Nestled on 11 acres surrounded by pristine Colorado wilderness in the Rocky Mountains, this lodge is perfect for family reunions, friend retreats, and more.
Other inviting common areas you’ll love are the sunny dining room and family room with many windows that frame spectacular views of the Dolores River valley, the Bear Creek valley, and the many hummingbirds, warblers, and stellar’s jays on the bird feeders that hang in the windows. Enjoy the second-story deck that is equipped with two tables with umbrellas, a BBQ propane grill, and breathtaking views. On quiet mornings, you may spot deer, elk, or turkey grazing in the meadows above the lodge.
This family-friendly lodge has outdoor games for kids and adults alike. Enjoy some laughter around a game of cornhole or badminton, or select a book from the many options provided and swing in one of the two hammocks. In the evening, grab your family and friends and gather around the outdoor fire pit for some s’mores and stories. If you would prefer to play inside, choose your favorite puzzle or game from our well-stocked “game closet” for all ages. There is a highchair, pack ‘n play, and kids plates, bowls, cups, and utensils for the smaller ones in the group.
There are many opportunities for outdoor activities in the surrounding areas. Get out your fishing rod and go fly fishing in the Dolores River, or catch some rainbow trout at Twin Spruce Ponds (17 miles). Tie up your hiking boots and go for a beautiful hike on the Bear Creek Trail (1 mile away) or Priest Gulch Trail (2 miles away). For those looking for flatter terrain or mountain bike trails, the Boggy Draw Trail System (31 miles) has plenty of options. If the summer heat is getting to you, stop by Dolores Outfitters and rent a paddle board, kayak, or tube to float on McPhee Reservoir (36 miles), and on your way back to the lodge, stop by the Dolores Food Market for a fresh-baked pie and/or the Dolores River Brewery for some craft beer, wood-fired pizza, and possibly live music. Telluride (42 miles) has something for the whole group: restaurants, shops, hiking trails, gondola rides to the top of the mountain, the San Miguel River, and more. The culturally-rich Mesa Verde National Park is 38 miles away and is a must-see for ancient ruins enthusiasts.
Things to note:
- Smoking of any kind is not allowed inside the lodge, but there are two designated areas outside that have ashtrays for use to avoid wildfires.
- Due to our home insurance policy, we are required to have outdoor cameras on the property.
- The WiFi internet speed is 10 Mbps.
