Woodland Park House | Rustic retreat -So much fun - log playground, hot tub, concrete game court

6 Bedroom House in Woodland Park, Crystola

This spacious residence has easy, paved-road access, yet it is secluded in the mountains where you bask in clean air and brilliant winter sun.
The backyard forms your own private park. You can relax while your children are engrossed with the safety and excitement of their own secluded space. The large log playground provides swings for tiny tots to adults. Its log structure forms a balance bridge, fireman's pole, a sliding board, climbing tires. Enjoy "King of the Log" on a nearby balance beam. You can play basketball on the concrete court or put up the adjustable net and grab the equipment for playing pickle ball, volleyball, or badminton. We try to keep a tether ball supplied, however, the local bears like to eat it. N
National Forests and a Woodland Park land preserve border the property. These provide hundreds of acres of picturesque hiking. A treasure map leads the adventurous through the mountains to an old gold mine. The map and hike create a fun, family challenge. There are hammocks, lawn chairs, a gas grill, and a soothing waterfall feature during summer. We are located in the beauty of Ute Pass.
Relaxation is enriched with our spacious spa / game room. There you soak in our hot tub - where you can cheer on your energetic friends as they compete in billiards, ping pong, air hockey, or foosball.
Since your vacation is a time for rest, we splurged on the bedding. Memory-foam on the mattresses provides form-fitting support. Sleep in the theme-decorated bedrooms for an imagination experience.
The spacious main-floor bedroom has a king-sized bed. Upstairs: 'Country Garden' has two queen size beds. 'Grandma’s Attic' has two twins, one of which is an adjustable bed that can be positioned for special sleeping needs. 'Wilderness Trail' has two twin beds. 'Mountain Adventure' has two twin mattresses inside a large tent. Finally, the upstairs balcony has a full-size hide-a-bed.
The house is especially designed to be environmentally friendly. Sun rays flood the house with toasty warmth during the winter. Woodland Park's motto is 'City Above the Clouds,.' It boasts an average of 300 sunny days per year, more than San Diego, CA or Miami Beach, FL. In the summer the house is naturally cooled when the house's concrete mass absorbs the cold from the night air. It returns the cool during the day. This is truly ECO-friendly.
In the summer the 8500 foot elevation doesn't require air conditioning. The average HIGH for the entire year is in July at 74.5 degrees. This means pleasant days. The cool nights average lows in the 50's.
Another benefit of our high elevation, is that recent studies show that those on diets can quickly lose weight and keep it off for weeks afterwards by spending time at higher altitudes. And what great training for athletes when their bodies acclimatize to the high elevation and return to lower elevation with a new endurance.
Our expansive solar windows take advantage of the sun and clean mountain air. Through them you look on to your private yard. There is no central heating system, so on those occasional winter days when the sun is hidden, you set individual heaters in the rooms or better yet, your family will gather around your glowing fire in the wood stove. 'Roughing it' never felt so good.
The home is well stocked with an extra-large, 30 cubic foot, french door refrigerator/freezer with an ice maker and water dispenser. Both are serviced with filtered water. We have. glass-top electric stove, dishwasher, drip coffee maker, large stainless steel cooking pans, a crock pot, hand mixer, blender, toaster, microwave and MUCH MORE - Plus we have on hand a selection of spices. There is baby equipment: an umbrella stroller,a high chair, a porta-crib, backpack baby carrier, stair guards.
Our home has been wheelchair accessible for previous guests who had some mobility and smaller wheelchairs. The house entrance is on ground level, This main level accesses one bedroom with a king-size bed and an attached bathroom with a walk-in shower. The doors and hallways in this area are narrow. (As low as 24" before trim.) This main level accesses the kitchen, dining, game/spa room, outdoor patio area. We have small portable ramps to get up and down the 5" step at the doors that enter and exist the house. But please note, our home is NOT ADA compliant.
We, the owners/managers live nearby so are immediately available to provide for your every need.

Summary: We chose this property for its "wheelchair accessible" listing, but it presented major challenges for me as a wheelchair user. The entrance walkway, made of uneven log rounds, was a trip hazard and blocked my motorized chair. A 4.5” step required my 3’ ramp, but tight landscaping limited maneuvering space. Inside, furniture and a large rug hindered navigation. Host Karen was responsive, allowing us to rearrange items, which helped. The first-floor bedroom was spacious, but the 27.5” door and 27” hallway clearance were tight. The bathroom was inaccessible: the main entry was 21.25” with a 1.5” threshold, and the bedroom’s shower entry was 23”. The shower (35”x36”, 4.5” lip, no bench) was unusable, forcing me to use bed baths. With my wife’s help, I managed toilet transfers. The game room (hot tub, pool table, etc.) in the garage needed my 5’ ramp to access due to a level drop. The outdoor seating area was unreachable (4.5” threshold). A furniture piece narrowed the second-floor stair access to 28”, though this didn’t affect me. Karen was accommodating, but the “accessible” label is misleading due to uneven paths, tight doorways, and an unusable bathroom. I hope this review informs other wheelchair users and encourages the host to address the classification of the property for future guests.

Summary: Staying at this "rustic retreat" was perfect for my family reunion. The kitchen was well stocked with incidentals. The game room was much used by all ages.

Summary: We had 6 kids with us and they all stayed busy and loved the space outdoors. There is a TV under the stairs that we brought out for relaxed mornings with the littles. The temps during the day reached close to 100 and cooled at night in the 50's. The house stayed comfortable. It is also in a great location in the middle of you want to travel north or south and minutes from groceries.

Summary: It was an ideal vacation spot . My kids and I haven’t been on a vacation together since they were little. Now that they are grown with children , some with , some without , they had a blast . Competing in basketball on the court , playing volleyball, swinging on the tire swings , running with their dogs in the large yard , and also swinging in the hammocks . Absolutely happy with our stay . We cannot believe how rustic and homey it was . The water fountain was peaceful too . So much to do in the area as well. Every day was an adventure and just a small drive from the house. The views of peace and serenity from the porch swing to the playground. We hope to be back next year ! The beds were comfortable, the house is large , and everyone was able to have their own space . Karen was so nice and gracious . Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful house - little piece of heaven ! There was 10 of us .

Summary: Our family made great memories in this mountain home. The. Jews are breathtaking. Waking up looking at wildlife in the mornings. Host was so kind and responsive to our needs. I would do this again and again at this place.

Summary: We had a wonderful family reunion, including 7 kids from toddlers to teens. The property is perfect for a large group with outdoor space, playground, and ball court (pickleball with a mountain view!)Inside the house is spacious and has a lot of charm. The owner shared the amazing story of how their family built it.This is a rustic property with some quirks, the water pressure dips if the dishwasher is running and sound can travel to the bedrooms facing the main space. We worked around it easily by hanging in the game room at night and our toddler slept perfectly in the back room. We found space heaters and fans in each room, and there was a wood stove with plenty of firewood. When we arrived it was snowy, and when we left it was sunny and warm, we stayed comfortable the whole time.The kitchen was well stocked, with big pots and pans plus an outdoor grill that made it easy to cook all of our meals at the house. Expect wildlife in the mountains, we saw deer and the kids threw snowballs at a woodpecker who liked to wake us up.There's tons to do within 10-30 mins. We loved the nearby towns, the zoo, multiple challenging and kid-friendly hikes.The owner was kind and welcoming and went out of her way to accommodate our special needs, which we really appreciate. It’s clear she genuinely wants her guests to enjoy their time and make great memories.If you're looking for an epic, spacious, family-friendly spot, this is the place! Can't wait to come back!

Summary: Our stay was amazing. Beautiful property with great views!! Kids loved the game room and enjoyed sledding right outside the house. They all had fun in the tent. It was a perfect getaway, there weren’t tvs in the rooms which was good, we loved watching the kids just being kids! Definitely made memories for them!

Summary: We had two family’s stay here with 10 kids total! It was a blast. No need for heating or cooling. Perfect weather and room for kids to run.
Gabriel Michael M. Sep 15, 2024 10:25:27 PM
Summary: Overall it was great. Only real down side was there wasn't any gas in the grill when we tried to use it so we had to use the oven/stove instead.
