Gorgeous Custom Log Home w\/ Mountain Views! Top-Rated with Amazing Amenities!
About this house rental
Welcome to the Blue River Lodge! This luxurious custom-crafted log home is a rare find complete with a 7-person hot tub, indoor and outdoor saunas, steam shower, pool table, authentic tipi, multi-level decks (and separate private deck for the master bedroom), two outdoor patios, spacious two-car heated garage and plenty of outdoor parking, big screen TVs in family room and bunk room for watching your favorite sports and movies (and a TV in master and guest BR), wireless high-speed broadband (great for remote working and video calls), acreage, forest and mountain views, and more. The outdoor barrel sauna heated with a woodstove is truly unique and rare to find in a rental home. The dining room even has a chairlift (Pallavacini chair retired from A-Basin) at the head of the dining table! Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail in the original gondola from Vail ski resort - fully restored, heated, dimmable lights - located on our front deck! If you are looking for a true Colorado log cabin (more like a lodge than a cabin) in the woods yet want to pamper yourself with the comforts of a luxury spa (and only 10 minutes to skiing and the town of Breckenridge), this is it! PLEASE READ OUR REVIEWS - YOU WILL SEE THAT WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN THE LEVEL OF ACCOMMODATION PROVIDED, ATTENTION TO DETAIL SUCH AS QUALITY OF BED LINENS, KITCHEN FURNISHINGS, CLEANLINESS, ETC., AND WE QUICKLY RESPOND TO ANY QUESTIONS PRIOR TO, AND DURING YOUR STAY. The spacious living areas include a large great room (living/dining/kitchen), huge master bedroom (King size bed), two guest bedrooms (each with King bed), an oversized bunk room that sleeps up to 6 (two full-size bunks and four single-size bunks, all built-in) and three very spacious full baths to comfortably accommodate three or four couples or families with children. With top of the line furnishings, a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen, custom bar, high-quality Egyptian cotton sheets, down comforters and pillows, and plenty of living space, you will feel like a guest in a private lodge rather than a tourist in a rental property. Whether you want to relax under the stars in the hot tub after a day of skiing, curl up next to the woodstove with a good book, snowshoe out the back door (6 sets of snowshoes are provided), take a sauna or steam, or shoot a game of pool, this house has everything you need for a perfect Colorado mountain vacation. Other amenities include DirecTV Stream, high-speed wireless broadband (great for remote working and Zoom calls), wood stove in living room, gas fireplace in family room, very large 'mudroom' for boots (with a boot heater) and jackets, and even an authentic Tipi. Picture windows and two large decks offer magnificent views in every direction! Front deck looks into mountain peaks and rear deck faces National Forest. Secluded from view from other houses, the Blue River Lodge is nestled in Aspen and Pine, borders National Forest, ten minutes from Breckenridge with quick access to the ski areas of Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper, A-Basin and Vail. The Blue River Lodge is also close to world class golfing, shopping, back-country trails for hiking and biking, rafting, and gold medal flyfishing. Please note that our driveway is professionally plowed each time it snows but a 4WD vehicle is still required in winter (not just for our driveway but for driving in general in Colorado during the winter season - Colorado has laws requiring either 4WD or chains during storms). Please reviews from prior guests and you will see that they often comment that this home is one of the finest properties available in Breckenridge. Please contact us for a rate quote as sometimes we have flexibility and rates can vary depending on the season and size of your group. On occasion we may be willing to waive a nightly minimum to fill in gaps on our calendar. Please also feel free to contact us with any questions, if you would like additional photos, prior guest references or more information. Most of our guests are repeat customers so we recommend booking well in advance. This property has been granted a Short Term Rental License as required by Summit County (Short Term Rental License No. STR21-00117), and complies with Summit County's "Good Neighbor Guidelines." This property has two garage parking spaces and three outside parking spaces (in front of and next to garage). Keywords: Custom Log House

We had such an incredible time at this home. We traveled with our adult children, their spouses, and grandchild and there was plenty of space for all. There was so much to do! We loved the pool table, snowshoes/sleds and variety of games. We could have never left the house and still had a blast. Chris was very responsive and hospitable. We loved our stay and would come back in a heartbeat.

Awesome cabin! We had 9 people (me, my wife, son (9), and daughter (12)), my brother's family (brother, SIL, nephew (4), and niece (18 months), and our mother (75) stay for five days over President's Day weekend for a ski trip to Breck. The cabin was more than enough room for all of us, was beautiful, incredibly comfortable, and very well equipped. We loved it. Location was great -- a drive into Breck, but not too far -- and great snow shoeing and sledding near the house. Owners were easy to communicate with and very responsive. Highly recommend.

Gorgeous as advertised. Every amenity possible was in place and working properly. Simply a majestic place and one we will visit again.

Everything about the property was amazing. Although it was a ski trip and we could have stayed at the house and had plenty to do. No complaints!
5.0
We have stayed in Breck numerous times. We loved this property and even had the pleasure of having a glass of wine with the owner. It is a private location fairly close to town but secluded to avoid the crowds. We also saw a Pine Marten which we heard was rare. I would most definitely go back! Loved it.
5.0
We had a great weeklong stay and really enjoyed this cabin. It's very private even though other houses are nearby. The house itself was awesome with large bedrooms and a private top floor loft with a king size bed. We also really enjoyed the large hot tub on the upstairs deck. The outside area was so peaceful and scenic and was one of our favorite features. Overall and great house and we would definitely stay again.

We loved our stay at Blue River Lodge! Our family, ages 6 months to 61 enjoyed the beautiful view and all the fun amenities Blue Ridge Lodge had to offer. Our grandkids loved rocking out to the music we played on the big new hot tub and they loved making s’mores around the large fire pit (one of three that the lodge has!) We also loved the gondola on the deck and the teepee in the back that had another fire pit inside. We loved looking at the beautiful mountains surrounding the property and even had an adorable fox come up on the deck and peak into our living room one day! That thrilled us all. We had a wonderful week!

The property is amazing and the amenities are endless. I grew up skiing in Summit County and all of the local touches were a nice walk down memory lane. I remember being in the Vail Gondola and A-Basin chairs. We rarely left the house. It was just 2 of us, and I wanted to check this place out for a family ski trip...it will be amazing in winter as well, and my kids will love it! Short drive to Breck. Only downside was no TV in main living area, which was okay for us but would need that if we bring a group!

Our two week stay at the Blue River Lodge was wonderful! Chris was a very attentive host and willing to help with whatever needs came about. The lodge was beautiful and perfect for our group of 12, including 5 children ages 2 to 7.The outside area offered fun opportunities for everyone. The hot tub, barrel sauna, board games in the gondola, s’mores by the campfire, exploring in the teepee, and coffee with a good book on the deck were some of the highlights. The proximity to Breckenridge was convenient. We enjoyed fishing on Lake Dillon and the Montgomery Reservoir, the Georgetown Loop Railroad, Two Below Zero Frisco chuckwagon dinner, day trip to Vail and the mountain coaster, and several hiking trails around Breckenridge. We can’t wait to come visit again and enjoy another stay at the lodge!

My new wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon. The house itself is amazing then and in the views of elk on the mountain side right out the window with mule deer walking by morning and night. Then take a trip into Breckenridge that’s only 15 mins away and you’ll pass a group of moose every morning for us around 10 am. The place was clean the property was nice with plenty to see even spiders because you are in the mountains and spending time outdoors. Would recommend to anyone just wanting to get away from day to day busy and just breath a little. Can’t thank the host enough already coming up with another trip here. Thank y’all again

Family of 6 from Colorado and Maryland.Five went skiing and one created meals in the stocked kitchen. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and wood fireplace. The beds were very comfy. Owner was 100% responsive. Lots of outdoor fun areas but several feet of snow prevented us from using them. I’m sure it’s spectacular in the warm season. We would love to find out.

Could not have had a more enjoyable week at this special property. Took our three little girls (ages 1, 3, and 4) in the early fall and enjoyed lots of nearby hiking/biking/dining. The house is top notch and uniquely designed. Can't think of a single thing we would have changed. Hosts were always readily available. We never needed anything from them, but they checked in with us nonetheless, so we knew they were just a text away if anything came up. We loved being in close proximity to downtown Breck, while still being able to feel like we were "away from it all" in our own secluded mountain paradise. Can't wait to return. Thanks you Chris and Sibyl!

July 5-11 2022. We had a great time! Our family loved staying in this beautiful cabin & can’t wait to go back! We had a 6 month old through 80’s. They had everything imaginable in the kitchen, games, puzzles, equipment for outdoor activities, they even had a high chair, stroller and pack & play.

This is the second time we have had the opportunity to rent this cabin. We love it! The location is perfect for us. Backs up to the National Forest and we have seen fox and moose in the hard. 15 min drive to Main Street in Breck. There are numerous hiking trails within 5 min away. Our children love the teepee, tree house, pool table , yard. It is so nice to let the kids just play outside all day. The beds are comfy, the kitchen stocked for every type of meal. We will stay again! Thank you Chris and family for sharing your home.

We needed a break from the Texas heat and spent an amazing 7 days in Breckenridge. Everything about the property was great and the owner, Chris, made himself available for questions about the property as well as advice on things to do in the Area. The cabin was exactly as shown in the pictures, maybe even better in person. There is ample deck space for the adults to relax and enjoy the views and plenty of options for the kids, including a full size teepee and tree house in the back yard.. The kitchen was fully stocked and had a full array of spices to choose from. The overall experience was a 10/10 and we will certainly be staying there again on our next trip to Breckenridge.

Breathtaking view, peaceful, serene…truly amazing.

Unique Mountain Home
This unique, large, and very pretty cabin was in the perfect location for our hiking and fishing vacation. Close enough to Breck, but far enough out to give our family the Colorado experience we love.
5.0
This place was absolutely gorgeous, inside and out! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay for our first visit to Breckenridge! Just minutes away from shopping and restaurants, but far enough out to have some privacy with a beautiful view. The property owner was so great to work with, answering questions and making suggestions when I asked him for recommendations. This was definitely the best experience I have ever had at a vrbo property, and we are hoping to go back someday. We loved everything about Breck: the weather, the food, the shopping, the beautiful views, all of it. Having this awesome place to stay was just icing on the cake!

Beautiful Ski Escape
The Log Home had everything you could desire for a family vacation. Not only is it beautiful but it was comfortable. We went to ski but the house is so well equipped there really isn't a reason to leave. You could just stay at the Log Home for a week and never be bored. Our host was super helpful and available to answer any question. Don't miss this property!

Our stay was incredible! It truly is one of those properties that is better than the pictures. The location is just far enough to feel secluded but close enough to get to the lifts in under 20 minutes. Our kids loved the bunk room, there were games galore, the kitchen is more than well equipped and the home comes with all the toys you could need. The owner was incredibly responsive and helpful. A few helpful tips: follow all instructions on the driveway and the necessity for a 4 wheel drive and prepare for the altitude it is legit. In the case that you are traveling with couples, the master bedroom is a loft and has swinging doors but is open to the rest of the house. Would recommend for families - truly an outstanding home. Hope to be back!!

This place has it all. We arrived to a beautiful cabin in the mountains. We snowshoed the property which was an experience. The hot tub under the stars in the mountains- breathtaking!
The beds were very comfortable.
We were min from the mountain to ski/board.
I would recommend this place!

Family Ski Trip
We had a blast staying here! When we weren’t on the slopes we were sledding down the drive way or snow shoeing though the woods. The stars at night from the hot tub were amazing! It was a perfect fit for our group of 12! Thanks

Our experience at the Blue River Lodge was exceptional! The cabin was beautiful, well appointed, and very comfortable. The views were spectacular and the area offers so much to do and experience. Further, our hosts couldn’t have been more accommodating! In short, the Blue River Lodge was one of our all-time favorite rentals.

My family will never forget our time spent together on this trip. Chris was very easy to work with and anything you needed to know was communicated. The cabin is set up perfect for family’s. Close to serval ski resorts and has all the amenities you need when on a skiing trip. Dryer for clothes after a day in the slopes. A place to store your equipment in a heated oversized garage and plenty of room to get two vehicles parked inside. The hot tub was a hit with our crew. There is plenty of wood to have a warm fire in the evening as dinner is cooking. This place is perfect. We are already planning our next stay here.

Absolutely Perfect
Everything about this rental is perfect. It is evident that the lodge is the family’s personal home and well loved. We hope to stay here for our next visit to the mountains. Beds are comfortable, kitchen well equiped, hot tub perfect, enough room for all. This backs up to the National forest and we loved exploring the area. If you are looking for a large group, the owners also own and rent the next door cabin as well. Both are 4 bedrooms. We can’t wait until he can return.
