Description The Talk of Telluride: Telluride

At this secluded home, you're welcomed by scenes of snow-capped mountains, aspen and spruce forest, and a quintessential log cabin with bags of rustic charm. Sitting on more than an acre of land, you'll have great views of Mount Sneffels. Inside, it's everything you hoped it would be, with glorious local timber, a stone fireplace, plush leather armchairs and warm, earthy tones. The open floorplan on the ground floor makes for a social space, with a fully kitted-out kitchen and dining area, and there's a fabulous deck where you can sit out and cook on the grill. Bundle up in your snow gear each morning and hit the nearby slopes, or take a scenic hike around Telluride. And after a day exploring, there's nothing better than a soak in the hot tub, and you'll find this homely place provides everything from board games and SONOS speakers, to a telescope and emergency warm clothing.
