Nathrop House | Stargazer Retreat Hot Tub, Game Room, Creek Walk, Pet-Friendly, 360° Mtn Views

3 Bedroom House in Nathrop

STR#006326
Step into PK's Stargazer Retreat, a warm and welcoming three-story mountain home perched on a scenic plateau with unforgettable 360° views, a fenced yard, a peaceful creek trail, and truly incredible night skies. The property sits within a Dark Sky community, near Browns Canyon National Monument which is an officially designated International Dark Sky Park, known for some of the clearest, most naturally dark skies in Colorado. On clear nights the sky becomes a blanket of stars with the Milky Way visible to the naked eye and viewable from any of the numerous patios or the private hot tub.
Conveniently situated between Buena Vista and Salida and just minutes from Mt. Princeton Hot Springs, this home offers comfort, privacy, and plenty of space for families, couples, and groups looking to relax and reconnect. After a day of hiking 14-ers, mountain biking, rafting, or skiing Monarch Mountain, return to the panoramic alpine views for wildlife watching (hummingbirds, deer, elk, turkeys, and resident owls), and relaxing evenings under the stars. What You'll Love: - Unmatched 360° views: to the West there are the Collegiate Peaks, Mt. Antero & the Chalk Cliffs, to the North - the Sawatch mountain range, to the West – Mosquito Range & Brown's Canyon, and to the South - the beautiful Sangre de Cristo mountain range. With snow-capped peaks in winter & fiery Autumn colors the views are never the same but always awe-inspiring. - Dark Skies Neighborhood with extraordinary Milky Way viewing that is visible with the naked eye…or you can use the on-site telescope for hours of stargazing enjoyment - Large, private, and secluded hot tub tucked into a scenic corner of the property with a painted mountain mural backdrop.
- Bright, open living area with floor-to-ceiling windows, a vaulted wood ceiling, and thermostat-controlled gas fireplace - Private walking trail along Brown's Creek directly behind the house for exploring and wildlife spotting. Feel free to take the provided hammock to the creek and enjoy a relaxing afternoon beneath the aspens while listening to the creek
- Two king suites, each with ensuite bath (rare in this market) and a third bedroom with queen-size bed. All rooms have individually controlled thermostats and high quality linens on new, comfortable mattresses

Summary: I travel a lot and I’ve stayed in several vacation rentals, and this one is my favorite so far. The views were great, the home was well stocked, and my family of 5 had plenty of room. Everything was clean and the hot tub was great! 5 stars!
