This meticulously restored mining town resort is situated in a pristine valley close to Telluride. Each of the 13 original hand-hewn wood cabins is individually decorated: Dolores has a painted wedding bed from Rajasthan, while Vertical Log features a spectacular Native American robe hanging on a wall. At the heart of the property, the Saloon is a convivial gathering spot for drinks and outstanding meals. Guests may soak in the 105-degree natural springs, and the property also has a spa, a library, a yoga studio and a gym. Activities include fly-fishing, hiking, biking and horseback riding in summer and ice climbing, snowshoeing, dog sledding and cross-country skiing in winter. Families are welcome, and the whole town can be booked for groups.
The property supports the Tikki Hywood Foundation, which strives to create awareness of the plight of lesser-known and endangered animals around the world.
