About this property

Explore this Mountain Getaway in National Forest. Refresh and Relax.

The Summit is a new, custom home surrounded on every side by Pike National Forest in Woodland Park, Colorado and located within a gated community. You have to look and listen hard to see or hear neighbors! The home is within walking distance to Rampart Reservoir and only 35 minutes from USAF Academy. We are also 10 miles from the base of Pike's Peak and 10 miles from The North Pole (Santa's Work Shop). Additionally, Woodland Park has a new Aquatic's Center that's just 5 miles away.

The Summit boasts unparalleled views of Pike's Peak from a Modern Scandinavian design. The open floor plan upstairs allows everyone to stay connected: be inspired as you commune with family in large living areas, or reminiscence with a glass of wine in a luxurious gourmet kitchen. For those who desire quiet time, curl up with a book on the comfy chair in our reading nook, or enjoy an intimate conversation at the downstairs bar. Music lovers will enjoy the vintage Baldwin concert grand piano; outdoor lovers can relax upon locally reclaimed furniture on the downstairs walkout patio, then take advantage of our two decks--sun bathe on the master bedroom private walkout deck, or grill and eat on the spacious walkout kitchen deck.

The Summit has radiant floor heating and is without AC as it sits at 8800 feet; so, on a warm day simply open over-sized windows if necessary and enjoy the cross breeze, access the master bedroom fan, or use various mini fans available.

A Stunning Stay at The Summit!
The surreal grandeur and raw beauty of this property truly takes your breath away. From the interior to the exterior, every immaculate and sophisticated detail is punctuated by the beautiful and wild backdrop of Pikes Peak. We hosted an intimate wedding celebration here that will forever be stamped in our hearts. We can’t thank Tyler and Eve enough for hosting us - they were wonderful and communicative throughout the entire stay.

The perfect mountain wedding
From the moment we stepped into the home we were speechless. The views, the decor, and everything in between was absolutely incredible. We had our wedding here and it was everything and more. Eve and Tyler were great to work with, super responsive and helpful and I couldn’t recommend this place more. Thank you so much for the great hospitality! We look forward to coming back in the future

I can’t even put into words how amazing Tyler and Eve’s home is. It has the most breathtaking view of pikes peak that I have ever seen. We were lucky enough to host our micro wedding at their home over Labor Day weekend. It was everything we could’ve dreamed of and more. Tyler and Eve were so accommodating and great to work with. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. We can’t wait to visit again in the future!!

Dream Wedding Location!!!
We rented Tyler and Eve’s property for my daughter and now son-in-law’s wedding. It was so beautiful and special. The house was immaculate and spacious. Words can not describe how stunning the views were. When we show people our pictures, they say it almost doesn’t look real! Tyler quickly responded to my questions and was very helpful. Would definitely recommend this property if you are considering a small cozy wedding!!

Amazing Place
This property was amazing and exceeded our expectations. As have others have said, the pictures do not do it justice. The property has all of the amenities that you could possibly need. We were able to meet one of the property owners who was kind and helpful. When contacting the owners, they were prompt to respond. The property hosted the Nichols' wedding and it was a great property for the occasion!

The house is super comfortable, well-designed and decor right out of a HGTV show! We loved hiking out the back of the house and enjoying the view in from inside the house. Was just perfect to sit in the backyard, read, chat and enjoy the spectacular views. It’s was the perfect getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Tyler and Eve Lawrence

Host profile image
We are the Lawrence family, made up of 6: Elsa (7), Davis (5), Caius and Cruz (twin 3-year-olds), Mom (Eve), and Dad (Tyler). Tyler is an Assistant Principal and Eve is a Group Fitness Instructor/Trainer by day, and Professional Mom by day and night. Elsa is a little Mommy, and the boys are boys--dirty and destructive:)

We started our journey 3 years ago as homeowner-contractor-builders with a dream to build a home isolated from the city. Finally, after successes and failures, our dream home is complete. Adventure and exploration are important to our way of life. From hiking to rock climbing, paddle boarding to sledding, The Summit provides endless opportunities to experience and engage nature in its grandeur.

We started the building process with an essential purpose in mind, which was to share our home with others so that they might experience freedom. Freedom to experience nature without hesitation; freedom to be alone and quiet; freedom to reflect with loved ones; freedom to escape life's expectations; freedom to refresh and reset; freedom to have fun.

It is our hope, desire, and prayer that anyone who visits The Summit will find what they are looking for. We are honored and excited to provide an unforgettable experience.

Sincerely,
The Lawrence Family

Why they chose this property

Eve grew up on this mountain, often hiking to the undeveloped property for prayer time. The Summit was at first a piece of land upon which the county said we'd never be able to build. Eve and I, before and during marriage, would often hike to The Summit with dreams of a future that felt palpable but sill impossible. For five years, family worked tirelessly with and against "the powers that be" to subdivide the land. And years later, dreams and prayers were actualized.

What makes this property unique

We were unsure whether or not to put a TV in the upstairs great room, and after a week of living in the home, we realized that our Pike's Peak view was better than any hulu original or Netflix documentary. Beyond that, our favorite moments are sitting with the kids on the great-room couch, identifying forms and characters of the ever-changing clouds shaping Pike's Peak. The Summit has centered us to regain what's perhaps been lost in an overly-busy and technological-driven society: we value the importance of slowing down, embracing conversation, and appreciating what it means to be an old soul.
