The Willis Retreat-Fairplay/Southpark's Best Value

Description from the owner

The Willis Retreat sets the standard in Park County for comfort, seclusion, complete amenities, easy access, and all the beauty of the Colorado Rockies at a remarkable price. We guarantee you cannot find another vacation rental property with our list of amenities and quality of location at this price anywhere in the South Park region.

Location, location, location - The Willis Retreat is located just 2 miles north of Fairplay, so if you need to head into town for groceries or gas its less than a 5 minute drive. Breckenridge is 19 miles to the south (about a 30 minute drive), and its just 65 miles to Denver. The Retreat sits on five acre...s of pine and aspen to give you plenty of privacy (there isn't another cabin in sight!), and its only one mile off Highway 9. The road leading to the cabin is maintained and plowed by the County so its easily accessible even when the snow falls. And because the Retreat is located NORTH of Fairplay you'll find access to Breckenridge and Summit County to be quick and very convenient.

There's plenty of room at the Retreat with its 2,500 square feet, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, giant two-car garage and carport, a paved driveway and two large storage sheds. The interior features a recently remodeled and well-appointed kitchen attached to the huge Great Room which includes a 32" LCD Flatpanel HDTV w/Direct TV service and +70 Hi-Def channels, CD/DVD player, VCR, and stereo system. A large deck sits off the Great Room for relaxing under the stars and viewing the wildlife that passes through the property.

Need to stay connected while you're on vacation? Feel free to bring your laptop and tap into our high-speed wireless network so you can check your emails, surf the internet, etc.

The lower deck features a 6-person hot tub that is protected from the elements but offers terrific views and plenty of privacy. There are also outdoor speakers connected to a stereo and satellite dish so you can listen to commercial-free digital music.

You'll find a California King log bed in the master bedroom and a queen bed in the second bedroom. The kid's room includes bunk beds and the "game room" bedroom has a twin futon sleeper. There is also a queen-sized sofa sleeper in the Great Room. The Master bedroom includes a 20" flatscreen TV while the Gameroom bedroom has a 20" TV along with a Sony PlayStation 2 and a selection of video games and video movies ranging from kids to adults.

The cabin is pet-friendly and has a large dog run in the back yard when you want to keep your dog secured outside. If you would like a little more room to walk your dog than our 5 acres, Pike National Forest is just two miles down the road.

So the next time you're in the area and you want privacy, accessibility, comfort and all the beauty of the mountains at a reasonable price, make your plans to stay at the Willis Retreat. Please let us know if you have any questions or would like more information prior to your vacation. Thank you and we look forward to having you as guests!Read more
