Modern Mountain Retreat with Breathtaking Views, Luxurious Amenities, and Unforgettable Outdoor Living Welcome to your dream getaway—an architecturally striking, newly built modern home completed in 2025. Nestled in the heart of the Colorado wilderness and perfectly positioned to capture sweeping 180-degree views of majestic Pikes Peak and the gently rolling hillsides adorned with shimmering aspen groves, this home is where contemporary design meets the serenity of nature. Outdoor Living – Nature’s Luxury Playground From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captivated by the home’s stunning outdoor spaces, thoughtfully designed to blend high-end comfort with the surrounding natural beauty. The home sits atop a gently sloping lot, giving way to layered outdoor living areas that are as functional as they are awe-inspiring. Up on the back deck, enjoy the comfort of deep-cushioned seating perfect for morning coffee or sunset cocktails. A premium gas grill stands ready for alfresco dining, while a large hot tub invites you to soak under the stars after a day of mountain adventure. The deck wraps around to take full advantage of the panoramic views—sunrises cresting over the peaks, the golden flutter of aspen leaves in fall, and the timeless expanse of wilderness all year round. Just a few steps down, a lower patio beckons with yet another level of relaxation. This area features a rustic yet modern barrel sauna, allowing you to sweat out your stresses while enjoying tranquil views through a glass wall. Near the front a cozy fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs offers the perfect spot for roasting marshmallows, storytelling, or simply unwinding beneath the canopy of stars. Interior – Sophisticated, Warm, and Professionally Designed Step inside through a grand vaulted front entrance and be instantly swept away by the professionally designed interiors, integrating art and function. Every detail has been curated to create a space that feels both modern and warm, with natural textures, rich colors, and stylish furnishings throughout. The home’s open-concept layout creates a seamless flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces. Expansive windows line the entire back wall, framing postcard-worthy views of the mountains and letting in abundant natural light throughout the day. A striking slate and cast iron fireplace anchors the living room, surrounded by cozy seating and stocked firewood, perfect for curling up after a long day of outdoor fun. Nearby, a powder room off the kitchen offers added convenience for guests. The kitchen itself is a chef’s dream, with high-end stainless steel appliances, black granite countertops, a spacious island with seating, and every utensil, pot, and pan you might need—fully stocked and ready for use. Whether you're preparing a full meal or just enjoying a casual breakfast, this space is both functional and beautiful. Main-Level Primary Suite – Your Private Sanctuary The main level also features a spacious primary bedroom that exudes luxury and calm. A plush king-size bed invites deep sleep, while a large smart TV offers the perfect spot for winding down. Wake each morning to mountain views right from your pillow. The ensuite bathroom rivals a five-star spa, complete with dual vanities, heated tile floors, a walk-in glass shower, and upscale finishes throughout. Lower Level – Entertainment and Unique Sleeping Spaces Venture downstairs to discover a full walkout lower level packed with entertainment and cozy sleeping options. The centerpiece is a large game room, complete with a foosball table, big-screen TV, and a cozy game table ideal for cards, board games, or puzzles. It’s a lively, comfortable space designed for families and friends to gather, laugh, and connect. Off the game room, enter the “Tree Room”, an imaginative and serene bedroom inspired by the surrounding forest. Painted in deep, calming green with hand-picked décor that echoes the forest around, this room features a luxurious king-size bed, plenty of closet space, and a quiet office nook with a desk—perfect for remote work or creative writing with a view. A beautifully appointed full bathroom with heated tile floors sits nearby, thoughtfully designed with a split-door layout to allow multiple guests to use the space comfortably and privately at once. Finally, the bunk room is a kids’ (or kids-at-heart’s) dream, featuring custom queen-over-queen bunk beds with high-end mattresses, games, and enough space to spread out. Perfect for a family with children or a group of friends looking to maximize their stay. Every Detail Considered, Every Luxury Included This home was crafted to provide a premium mountain experience—from its awe-inspiring outdoor areas to its elegant interior design.

Other Details to Note

Cautionary Notes (Please Read)! We do NOT accept check-in or check-out on holidays. Pets We will allow pets who qualify. Please message us before booking for our pet policy to see if your pets qualify. Currently we only allow dogs. There is an additional fee for bringing a pet to cover the cleaners’ extra time to keep the space fresh for future guests. Absolutely NO open fires are allowed. The risk of wildfire in the area is too high. You will be asked to leave immediately if there is any fire activity. The roads require 4WD for November through April (however it can snow in October and in May!). The roads are plowed after 6 inches of snow. You do not need a 4WD or AWD in the summer but be aware that the dirt roads in the neighborhood are bumpy! There is no air conditioning unit here. It is very rare in our county to have one installed in a house (even brand-new builds!) The nights are cool in the summer, so to cool the house off, you can open all the windows at night, then close them during the day, and you stay cool! Fans are provided to help blow the cool air through the home. We are at 9,400 feet in elevation — altitude sickness can occur but you can do things to prevent it and alleviate symptoms including, taking a day to rest when you arrive, drink extra water and stay well hydrated (avoiding alcohol will help).

This was one of the nicest Airbnb homes we have ever stayed in! The home décor was absolutely gorgeous with breathtaking views from the deck. The hot tub and sauna did not disappoint after a long day of hiking. Marlena was very helpful with recommending using the Waze app instead of Apple. All around a 10/10.

Marlena’s home is by far the best Airbnb experience we’ve had! The home is beautiful, peaceful, clean, & all the amenities were definitely utilized. The sauna & jacuzzi were a hit. Our group felt very comfortable, relaxed & we very much enjoyed our stay. We are already thinking about the next time we can stay at Marlena’s place. Thank you so so much. Until next time~

We absolutely LOVED our stay here. We came with two other couples (6 people total) to check off a bucket list item of seeing aspens in the fall. WOW! The house and the view were breathtaking. We all commented on how thoughtful the additional note, snacks, and drinks that were left for us were. Everything we needed was there. The kitchen is well stocked, including spices, oil spray, flour, etc., something you don't always see. There were even extra toothbrushes in the bathroom, which were appreciated since one person in our party had forgotten to pack one. Plenty of bathroom supplies, and we never had to buy anything additional. We enjoyed evenings out on the deck and in the hot tub. Thank you for such a memorable stay. We all enjoyed ourselves so much.

We had a group of 6 of us that traveled out to Colorado for a weekend, Marlena’s place is very beautiful and looks just like the pictures. The place was very clean and they had quite a lot of extra goodies there for us. I will definitely keep this place in mind when traveling again!

We had a wonderful stay at Marlena’s. This was our first trip out of town with our baby and the house was perfect. It had everything we needed, including baby essentials, which made traveling so much easier. The views from the deck were incredible and the home was spotless and comfortable. Marlena was a thoughtful and responsive host. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful cabin in the mountains of Cripple Creek, Colorado. Everything about the Airbnb was perfect—cozy, clean, and so thoughtfully stocked. The host truly thought of everything you might need, which made our stay feel effortless and relaxing. We brought our toddler along, and he had an absolute blast! He loved the games, the “bathtub” outside (aka the hot tub 😊), and was thrilled to discover a toy dump truck outside, which he pushed around all the rocky areas. It was such a joy watching him explore and play in such a beautiful setting. Highly recommend this cabin for families or anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped retreat in the mountains. We’re already dreaming about our next visit!

I hesitate to write a great review because selfishly I don’t want anyone else to know about this place! Our family wanted a beautiful, quiet place to get away for a few days and this was way above our expectations. With Pikes Peak views out the back porch and mountains all around it was one of the most beautiful, serene places I have ever been to. The house was amazing, clean, and extremely well stocked with all the essentials, which made it super easy to become our home for a few days. The Hot Tub, fire pit, and movie room allowed our family to just be together and enjoy. The kitchen had everything you need. When we got there, we realized we forgot to bring coffee…no worries they had it stocked with two separate coffee machines and coffee to choose from. House is brand new and beautiful! We will be coming again as soon as possible. Drive was super easy from Colorado Springs.

This beautiful brand new home in Golden Heights, Cripple Creek is incredible!! The views alone are beautiful! This place is tucked away in a private mountain neighborhood with just enough privacy. The home is absolutely perfect and Marlena’s extras for accommodations goes above and beyond any Airbnb we’ve ever stayed at. She makes sure your stay is stress free by adding little extras like toiletries and snacks. Location is only hour away from most excursions. Kids loved the hiking right there off the property. The hot tub is wonderful and helped us unwind every night and with the cool nights was perfect. The sauna is also a fantastic bonus. You can fit almost 4 in there, I thought it would be small. Kids absolutely loved the game room downstairs accommodating their rooms and that really made for better atmosphere for us upstairs. They could watch their movies and go outside their door when they wanted while we had the upstairs all to ourselves. This Airbnb is exceptional!! A+++
