A gas fireplace adds warmth to the communal space, while a granite island and a dining table provide the perfect settings for culinary gatherings. Two queen bedroom suites grace this level, each opening up to the enchanting sunroom at the back of the home. For those with canine companions, the sunroom conveniently leads to a fenced-in dog run, allowing pets to revel in the mountain surroundings.
Ascend to the upper level, where a third queen suite awaits, complete with a minisplit for personalized comfort. The thoughtful design ensures that every corner of Mountain Bliss is a sanctuary of relaxation and rejuvenation. Descend to the lower level, where a cozy den awaits, featuring a gas fireplace, a TV, and a fourth full bath. This space provides a retreat for leisure and entertainment, perfect for unwinding after a day of mountain adventure.
The allure of Mountain Bliss extends outdoors, where the main level deck invites you to dine under the open sky. A gas firetable adds a touch of warmth and ambiance, creating the perfect spot to soak in the stars and relish the mountain views. The lower level offers a screened in porch the opens to the ground level by the parking area.

Amazing location!
I am so happy we got a chance to stay at this property. The house is located in a private golf course and I felt very safe the entire stay. The house was amazing for our son and dogs to have enough room.
