Whispering Willows is a one-of-a-kind, a PRIVATE mini-resort, vacation rental located in the valley between Mt. Princeton and Mt. Antero. The views are spectacular! Ideally situated on Chalk Creek, this lodging features a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom sprawling house with a well-equipped galley kitchen, a large living room, and an oversized rec room with a regulation-sized pool table. Dine inside at one of the two dining tables, or move everyone outside to the deck, or even creekside to the gazebo. For those who love to cook outside, a gas grill is available. The Mt. Princeton Grocery Store is within walking distance and has a limited supply of groceries. If you don't wish to cook, the Mary Murphy Steak House is also within walking distance and serves 3 spectacular meals a day. There are many spa options available.
Guests love the amenities inside the house, but the outside of this property is what makes it so unique. Enjoy swimming year-round in the full-size geothermal swimming pool, which is surrounded by a pool deck and zero gravity deck chairs. The swimming pool is maintained at a warm temperature that is not too hot for swimming. A relaxing place to soak up the sun while relaxing in a private and peaceful environment. The natural rock soaking pool, also heated geothermally and creekside, will bring peace and balance to your life as you unhook and unwind. Temperatures in the soaking pool can be adjusted to the guests' desired preference.
As an added bonus, this private property has two freshwater ponds with Rainbow Trout (no fishing allowed from the pond), and large willow trees, which lend their name to the property. With approximately 300 feet of creekside frontage, guests can fish from the banks of Chalk Creek, however, Wrights Lake and Chalk Lake are both local favorites, and just up the road from the property. Our well-manicured lawn is somewhat of a rarity in the high Rockies.
We do provide regular pool maintenance, however, there is no lifeguard on duty. While children are welcome, guests assume all liability for themselves and those in their party. A rental agreement and waiver-release agreement are required when making a reservation. Guests are encouraged to bring their own water toys, beach towels, and any other accessories they wish to use in the pool as we do to provide those items.
Don't miss your chance to relax and recharge at a one-of-a-king, geothermal property, located in the valley between two world-famous 14, 0000-foot mountains in Colorado, USA. Contact the property manager today and we will make the process easy and seamless for you.
Please be advised that VRBO's presentation of the nightly rate is not always accurate. The "Avg Rate" takes into consideration that this property has a high season rate and a low season rate and averages out over a period of 364-365 nights a year. It also takes into consideration that there is a base rate as well as additional guest fees over the base rate.
Our base rate is dependent upon 1-2 guests. Each additional guest is charged $30.00 per person/per night. In the quote from VRBO, they call it an "Additional Guest Fee", whereas the host includes it in the rent. The host has no control over how VRBO presents these or any other fees such as the pool fee.
This property has 5 outside security cameras which surround the entire perimeter of the house. There are no inside cameras. If you have questions about the cameras, please ask.
PLEASE NOTE: Our permit allows for a maximum of 6 guests, including infants and children. Kindly refrain from requesting additional guests to "drop by," as this has caused numerous complications in the past.
