The house was fantastic. The views are breathtaking and it is so well appointed. We had 6 couples and there was plenty of room for everyone. The dining room table fits 12 and provided a lot of space for eating and then playing games. One thing to be aware of is that the road leading up to the house is not paved and has many potholes. We skied at Winter Park and had a great time - would definitely recommend!

We have been coming to Winter Park for over 40 years and this was the best place yet! The views are mind blowingly beautiful. The house was completely breathtaking and the hospitality was bar none. Couldn’t have picked a better place! Saw some awesome wildlife including many birds, a rabbit and an arctic fox!!

Exceptional House

This is the second time we have rented this house. House is exceptional, clean and very spacious with lovely decor. All rooms were as described. Plenty of room for extended family to spread out. Outside views were spectacular. Loved all the plants both inside and outside. Mark the caretaker was easy to work with, easy to communicate with and very attentive in answering our questions. Easy access to RMNP. I definitely recommend this house to anyone planning trip to west-side of RMNP.

Beautiful property with plenty of room

This was our second time staying at the Craglough House with extended family (6 adults, 4 children). There is plenty of room for everyone, ample cooking supplies, a beautiful view and lots of neat places to explore just in the area around the property. Easy drive to Winter Park, super close to Devil’s Thumb Ranch for food/spa. All in all, pretty darn perfect! The owners are great to work with as well.

An Incredible Escape

The house itself is one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed. It's incredibly spacious (yet cozy), well furnished, full of all the amenities that you might need, incredible views as well as being nicely isolated to enjoy some peace and tranquility (even though the slopes and the town are only minutes away). The owners of the property are incredibly accommodating and very responsive; they have made our stay even better than we could've imagined. We can't wait to stay here again once we're in the Winter Park area.
