New to VRBO! Virtual tour available - see QR code in photos!
Spoil yourself and experience true mountain grandeur here at The Blue Sky Lodge! Upon arrival, you will be greeted by the classic log cabin exterior, yet as you step inside, you will see that this lodge is breathtakingly rustic while still having all of the modern comforts of a luxury home.
Enjoy cozy evenings together in the three-story great room, gathered around the massive stone fireplace, crowned with copper and a mantle that is made from a tree that was once struck by lightning! There is also a wet bar here and a commercial ice maker to keep your drinks refreshingly cold. As a bonus, there is a handcrafted professional shuffleboard table along with an 85" TV and home theater system with a selection of ultra-high-definition movies for your viewing pleasure.
Adjacent to the great room is a gourmet kitchen that provides you with four electric ovens, a gas range, broiler, microwave, and all the appliances and accessories needed to create your favorite meals. Personal chef recommendation available upon request. There is also a coffee bar, a breakfast bar, and a large butcher block island with seating. The huge dining room table is made from an old railroad boxcar and is the perfect gathering spot for friends and family. Additional interior amenities include a library and game room, two laundry rooms, a small gym, and a dramatic two-story atrium.
The lodge has three first-floor bedrooms and two second-floor bedrooms with balconies. Each bedroom is uniquely decorated with furniture highlighting Old World craftsmanship. All bedrooms have their own private bathroom, large ultra-high-definition TV, heated floors, and Nest thermostat for individual comfort. For added peace and quiet, no bedrooms share an adjacent wall, and all are insulated for sound. There is also a kid-friendly bunk room in the top-floor loft. Imagine yourself sitting on the balcony and sipping your morning coffee while gazing out at the spectacular views!
While outside, you will hear nothing but the wind rustling through the trees as you enjoy the spacious wraparound deck that includes a gas firepit, grill, and patio heater. At night, the Milky Way galaxy is clearly visible while meteors streak across the sky as you relax in the new Jacuzzi hot tub. Drive or hike up to the property's "Scenic Circle" and enjoy a picnic with panoramic views of the nearby mountains and valleys, or enjoy a sweeping view of the nighttime sky from this ideal stargazing location.
The Blue Sky Lodge was completely renovated in 2021 and sits on 80 pristine acres with views of Pike's Peak and the Sangre de Cristo mountain ranges. The high elevation and southern exposure provide mild winters and cool summers with an average summer high temperature of 75 degrees and low humidity. No mosquitoes will disturb your outdoor activities.
