About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Modern Mountain Retreat

You will fall in love with our beautiful, modern mountain retreat nestled in the stunning Chalk Creek Canyon. We named the house and property Comhluadar (Gaelic word, pronounced CO-loo-dare) because it means “Company, Family; The Harmony of Being Together.” We built it to share with friends and family, and now YOU are part of that harmony! Private and secluded, this custom-built home sits on 2.5 acres of pristine mountain property, bordering national forest. Enjoy the beauty of the Chalk Cliffs, the majestic vistas of Mt. Princeton and Mt. Antero, and spectacular starry night skies. Our driveway sits one-quarter mile from the Colorado Trail, 11 miles down canyon from the ghost town of St. Elmo and minutes from the Mt Princeton Hot Springs. You'll be only 12 minutes from the friendly conveniences of Buena Vista, 18 minutes from the art walks, shopping, and dining of Salida, and 45 minutes from Monarch Mountain. No traffic!

The house sleeps 8 comfortably, has brand new appliances in a well-appointed gourmet kitchen, and plenty of indoor and outdoor living space to accommodate your family and friends. For those that like the modern conveniences of home, we provide high speed WiFi, a flat screen TV and Blueray DVD player, and a Bluetooth stereo system. A wood burning pellet stove sits in the corner of the great room and provides plenty of warmth on cold winter days. The perfect accommodations for your reunion, retreat, girls weekend, couples getaway, or family vacation.

We strive to offer superior accommodations to all our guests, therefore smoking and pets are not allowed.

And yes, that IS a disco ball hanging from the ceiling... hope you use it!

The southern facing front deck, with comfortable patio furniture, is perfect for morning coffee, or you can sit in the backyard shade to enjoy the cool mountain air. A picnic table and a gas grill, along with an outdoor fire pit make the back yard area a perfect spot for evening meals. Please note that we adhere very strictly to the posted fire bans in the area. If fires are not permitted, you will be notified prior to check in. We provide a propane fire pit to our guests when there is a ban in effect. You will forfeit your deposit if you choose to ignore the fire bans. Ignoring the fire ban puts not only yourself at risk, but also the lives of our entire canyon community.

In the winter, a 4WD/AWD vehicle is required. Our county road is plowed, and with enough notice, our driveway will be plowed as well. But a 4WD/AWD vehicle will make it regardless.

Come stay and play in the Arkansas Valley, where world class river rafting, mountain biking, 4-wheeling, mountaineering and hiking are at your front door. Welcome home!

Please note the vintage campers on site are no longer rented.

Great Summer Retreat!
This is a wonderful house with even better views. The pictures do not do it justice. The owners took great thought in the design of the home and it shows in their pride of ownership in every detail of this home. We enjoy all of the activities that the surrounding areas have to offer, but if you never left the house…you’d still have an amazing vacation!

Incredible Mountain Home
The pictures don’t do this beautiful home justice! The home has incredible views, it is very spacious and comfortable, it is secluded and private, and it is in an incredible location next to world class hiking and the Mt. Princeton Hot Springs. Highly recommend this home for your Rocky Mountain vacation! We will be back for sure.

Winter Wonderland
Our family of 5 wanted a great location to a winter vacation. Centrally located the house is 40 minutes from Monarch Mountain area (snowmobiling, dog sledding and tubing), a little over an hour from Leadville (Tennessee Cookhouse Snowshoe to Dinner experience) and 90 minutes from the Wolf and Wildlife Center. Lots of exploring available within 10-20 minutes (St. Elmo's Ghost town, Mt Princeton Spa and Cottonwood Lake which was a frozen wonderland that we walked on and watched people ice fish). The house itself is quite lovely with all the amenities you would want. It's back off the main road, is super quiet with amazing mountain views including lots of wildlife. Enjoyed waking up to fresh fallen snow several days we were there. Highly recommend this mountain retreat. We found the book the owners created on the night before we left showing how they built this home with so much care and love. Hope to go back!

Fantastic couple's trip!
We had such an amazing time celebrating my 40th birthday! The house was clean, comfortable and had amazing views from everywhere. We enjoyed hiking the Browns Creek waterfall, soaking in the nearby hot springs, hanging out by the fire pit and dancing under the disco ball! And the stargazing was killer! We will definitely be back.

We enjoyed a peaceful and adventurous week at this lovely home. The views are amazing from every room! The modern home is well equipped for every need. Enjoyed the backyard seating and corn hole as well as the front porch for viewing the humming birds.. So convenient to access the Colorado trail, Browns Canyon and Buena Vista restaurants and shopping. Thanks for a 5 star vacation destination, we hope to be back again soon.

Perfect vacation
We loved our Nathrop getaway. The house is perfectly tucked away for privacy but close enough to the hot springs that we went almost every night. The house had everything we needed and the hosts we’re prompt and communicative. Would absolutely recommend and stay there again.

Beautiful home in a Wonderful Location!
Our stay here was so good! It's perfectly located between Salida and Buena Vista and right next to Mt Princeton Hot Springs. The home was set up really well and furnished with nice pots and pans and all the appliances we needed, which you can't say about all STRs. Communication and access info from the property manager was great and I will definitely be trying to stay here again!

Paradise along the Chalk Cliffs
The views from this property are AMAZING!! And the location is perfect, sitting between Buena Vista and Salida, up into the mountains with the sound of Chalk Creek to welcome you to the deck. The home is well thought out and in pristine shape. Sitting on the front deck each morning with our coffee and enjoying the view was a perfect start to our day. Moira was quick to respond to our questions and take care of us. I would definitely return here.
