Keystone Prospectors Home (669)

Description from the manager

Rustic Luxury perfectly describes this amazing private home in Keystones River Run Village. Built with the typical style seen in Southern Colorado, this private lodge is among the most exclusive properties in all of Keystone.

Rustic Luxury is the way to perfectly describe this amazing home in River Run. This home was designed with a motif found only in the most exclusive areas of Colorado and you'll be stunned by the exposed wood beams and craftsmanship throughout. Furnished to the hilt with all high end appliances, multiple wet bars and living areas this private home is perfect for a large gathering of 2 or even 3 families.

Th...is is the kitchen of all kitchens! Featuring all commercial grade Thermador appliances and 2 islands, this is a cooks paradise! One island is a dedicated wet bar, the other is intended for food prep and is large enough to use as a buffet style serving area. A large flat screen TV is mounted on the wall in the kitchen so the chef will not be left out of watching the game with everyone else. A finely crafted table sits to the side of the kitchen and has seating for 10 people.

Hold your chin....your jaw will drop when you walk into the main living room area upstairs. Huge exposed wood beams support a sky-high vaulted ceiling. The huge gas fireplace in the living room is the centerpiece of this room with a tall rustic chimney and a wide hearth that will make you feel you are part of a picture out of Mountain Living magazine. A large comfy sofa and several chairs in front of the large picture window make this room a dream come true.

The main master is on the Eastern most wing of this keystone lodge. The huge picture window to the South features a full 180 degree view of Mountains, and the front side of Keystone Ski Resort. This bedroom features amazing architecture of exposed wood beams and high vaulted ceilings. A king bed populates this room along with all the furnishings you would expect in such a luxury retreat. The attached bath features a palatial steam shower with overhead rain shower head. A stacked washer and dryer are also located in the closet of the master bedroom so you don't have to run downstairs to the main laundry room. A flat screen TV on the wall completes this room.

The western wing of this Keystone house features the 2nd master bedroom, also furnished with a king bed. The attached bath features a jetted tub with a flat screen TV mounted above. The ladies will love stepping into this private spa and pampering themselves with silence and tranquility.

The downstairs master bedroom features a large King bed and an attached bath. Furnished in all high-end furniture and bedding, this room will make you feel like you're staying in a palace. A flat screen TV completes this room to perfection.

The available 2 bays of the garage feature a massive amount of space for 2 large vehicles plus space for extra gear such as skis, bikes, and more. The heated concrete slab means that your cars and gear will be toasty warm and ready for top performance. Scraping ice off a windshield is something you do not need to worry about.

These side-by-side rooms are separated by a shared Jack and Jill bath. These 2 rooms are ideal for kids and feature sleeping capacities of 4 people each, for a total of 8. These rooms are located downstairs right off the downstairs living area.

Located on the bottom floor, this room features a large 50" flat screen TV and an extremely comfortable sofa. To the rear of the room, opposite of the TV, there is a full wet bar complete with microwave, sink and fridge. Step outside to the ground level patio and hop into the large hot tub after a long day of skiing. A huge gas fireplace is the centerpiece of this room and is perfect when coming inside from the hot tub.

While at the home, enjoy the collection of original artwork assembled by the owners. Original oil paintings by Native American Farrell Cockrum of the Blackfeet Nation of Northern Montana greet you in the Great Room, including Cheyenne Visitation, a bold impressionistic work depicting Blackfeet Indian warriors on horseback. Also adorning the walls is an original landscape by Barbara Coleman, a New Mexico artist represented by galleries in Santa Fe and Taos. You will undoubtedly enjoy a portrait of cowboy singer/songwriter Michael Martin Murphy by Colorado painter William Matthews, once hailed by Forbes Magazine as the new Frederick Remington of American painting.

The kitchen and master bedroom on the west side of the home feature original works by Kim Stanfield, a Midwest-born painter represented by galleries from New Mexico to St. Louis. The master bedroom on the east side of the home contains vintage barn doors dating back to the early 1900?s and original oil paintings of barns by Sally Schoch, a Chicago area artist whose work is shown in galleries around the Chicago metropolitan area.

The front deck is probably one of the most popular places in the home. Straight on views of the entire front side of Dercum Mountain will amaze you. Located right off the main living room, the deck is made of fine Brazilian hardwood and is the perfect place to relax on a warm winter day after being on the ski slopes all day long. The best part is that this deck is a southern exposure and gets full sun all day long, so there is usually no snow or ice built up.Read more

  Beautiful place, excellent location

  Left on 08/16/2012 for a stay in July 2012
  
  

  We had a family reunion and stayed at this beautiful house. It was nice to walk over to River Run Village for restaurants & shopping. We didn't have to drive very often. This house is very well stocked and we were able to cook meals with enough dishes to serve everyone! It was perfect with one tiny exception ... not enough towels. There was a washer & dryer in the house so we just ended up washing towels a lot.

  This was an awesome home to use for the wedding.

  Left on 04/10/2012 for a stay in March 2012
  
  

  The home had everything we needed for our stay and
  the wedding. We had plenty of room and everyone was
  very impressed with the views, access to the slopes,
  and the comfort of the home. We all had a great time.
  I would recommend it to anyone who needs a larger
  home for their trip or as in our case a wedding.

  Fabulous place for a family reunion.

  Left on 12/16/2011 for a stay in August 2011
  
  

  We rented this house for a family reunion last august. The house is spacious, well appointed, and the western decor includes a photo of Paul Newman as Butch Cassidy. We enjoyed walking to River Run and riding the gondola.
  
  Summit Cove was very responsive when we couldn't figure out how to manage the many televisions and sound system.

  Great house!

  Left on 08/17/2011 for a stay in December 2010
  
  

  Terrific house. Very high quality. Location is perfect, and it has plenty of space.
  
  Nits: the radiant heat floors could not be controlled in the family room and kitchen, and those rooms were unbearably hot. The oven was not working.

  Great Long Family and Friends Ski Trip

  Left on 08/17/2011 for a stay in February 2011
  
  

  The house and the location were very, very nice. The kids really enjoyed the downstairs rooms and entertainment area. The kitchen is a little light on pans and other cooking essentials but that did not detract significantly from our stay. I would choose this home again.

  Best place we have ever stayed

  Left on 09/09/2010 for a stay in August 2010
  
  

  The house is new and is even nicer than the pictures show. Top quality finishes and furnishings. Feels like you are staying in your dream home - much better than a condo. Stocked with everything you might need. Hiking out the back door, biking out the front door. 200 yard walk to Keystone Village. Close to everthing, but just away from it enough for some privacy. The bedrooms are huge and the master suites have plenty of room for pack-n-play for young kids. We did lots of hiking nearby, fly fishing, biking, rafting (1 hr away), gondola at Keystone, horseback riding, etc. Our large family of 10 had plenty of room. Great place to be for a skiing week or weekend with family, friends, or both.
