About this property

Modern Mountain Hidden Gem in Fairplay

Make your way to this chic modern mountain home in downtown Fairplay. You’re a short walk to stores, restaurants and coffee shops that will provide you with a warm mountain welcome. Fairplay offers you the feel of country living while being close by to other towns such as Breckenridge, Buena Vista and Salida.

This completely renovated mountain modern home combines the beauty of the mountains, with its rustic charm, to the calming elegance of modern design. The living and dining room have an abundance of natural light with its floor to ceiling windows, with a nice view of the mountains, and a modern gas fireplace on those nights when you want the warmth & glow of the fire. The all- new kitchen is fully equipped for gourmet cooking or casual meals at home. The large island provides great counter space for your culinary feasts. A Nespresso machine is included for coffee lovers with lots of coffee flavor choices.

The deck has a gas grill and comfortable furniture for relaxing on warm days or snowy nights. The outdoor shed is equipped with bikes for great touring of town and beyond! We have a total of 6 bikes: 2- 26", 2-22" and 2-20" as well as a unique child's bike that's built for three. Please bring your own helmets.

The master bedroom has a king bed and bath with double sink and a tub & separate shower with large shower head. The calming blue porcelain tile will remind you of a beautiful sea.

The second bedroom has a queen bed and great natural light. And the third bedroom will welcome kids and adults alike with its bunk bed and warm design. All bedroom lamps come with built-in plug ins for phone charging.

This is a clean products home and has organic sheets and all safe products from shampoo, dish soap and laundry detergent.
The internet is strong and The Rock is equipped with family games and lots of DVDs! We also have a sound bar for your own music streaming.

We are conveniently located in town. It’s a 2-minute walk to enjoy local shopping, a stop at the ice cream shop or dining at a variety of restaurants; Salado for gourmet dining, Millonzi's for Italian fare and The Silver Scoop for great ice cream, coffee and sandwiches. We also have a new organic food truck- The Green Leaf Kitchen- which offers pressed juices, smoothies and healthy food bowls. Many more restaurants are in the process of opening up. We're also three blocks away from the South Park City Museum.

Fairplay is a quaint town with lots of options to explore including various retail shopping, a distillery and a winery. Also, our South Park Recreation center is less than a mile away. It's a fully-equipped gym with exercise classes and an indoor pool with lap lanes and a kids' water park with zero-depth entry.

Fairplay provides a welcome respite to the high tourist busyness of Breckenridge. Yet for those who'd like easy access, the Summit Shuttle is a few blocks away for the approximately 30-minute trip to Breck.

We hope your stay at The Rock will be a memorable experience. It’s a perfect getaway for couples, individuals or families. It’s not just a house, it’s a mountain experience to come back to again and again.

Wonderful Stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The host provided great communication and was very responsive and attentive when a small hiccup came up. Great location close to everything in town but tucked back some on a bit quieter street. The place was clean and met all of our expectations. Very comfortable and we hope to stay again!

Christmas Vacation

The house was perfect for our family of 5. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. The location was also great since we had activities to do in Cañon City, Frisco and Silverthorne. We weren’t too far from any of the cities.

Great location

We visited 1st week of August for my sons wedding. The weather was AMAZING! The location was close to many activities such as Breckinridge, For great restaurants and shopping- sight seeing, Bruna Vista for river rafting, Pikes Peek for an amazing experience in the clouds! All within an hour and a half drive including Denver. The town of FairPlay also has some great restaurants shops, and the kids favorite the ice cream shop. Necessity’s are readily available at the close by market, Family Dollar, and Dollar General. We also visited the near by Rec Center pool which the kids loved. ( they even let us adults in free to supervise the kids). The bikes they have were also a kid favorite and kept them busy in between activities. The home was very clean and the beds were so comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Sheree for your activities suggestions and your hospitality! We had a great vacation.

Fairplay Fun

This is the second time we have stayed in this perfect little home. We came for hiking, biking and to be close to downtown Fairplay.This home has everything you need and the host is always available. More than comfortable, its a little bit of luxury in the mountains.

Fantastic Getaway!

Four of us enjoyed a 3 night stay at this lovely home just blocks away from the downtown restaurants, museum and shopping. The house was welcoming, clean, and nicely decorated to the point I took pictures to inspire my own decorating! We felt right at home. Sheree was great and responded immediately to any question we had. It was a wonderful experience and she made us feel so welcome!

Absolutely Wonderful!

This is an absolute GEM of a home. It's just off the main street, a short distance to most of Fairplay's restaurants, and is simply and tastefully decorated. The entire house is impeccably clean and up-to-date. The neighborhood is very quiet, and this cozy house makes for a wonderful vacation spot. We loved it. We will be back to stay here again. The location is just perfect - far enough from the chaos of Breckenridge to get away, but close enough to drive up and ski before coming home to a much more-relaxing environment.

The host Sheree canceled my reservation. I flew out from MN and had a friend drive me to the VRBO to find I had NO access to the house! I called the host she sent a referral number, I called VRBO and they said O could file with the travel insurance, I bought luckily! Worst experience of my life!!!

Fairplay Frolics during Burro Days 2022

Best BNB that we have stayed at in many, many years. It is hard to find an BNB host that really pays attention to details in a home. Beautiful views from spacious windows, comfortable beds, cuddly bedding, soft towels and modern decor. You should see the amazing light pendants in the kitchen! A little house with such sophisticated charm. Our host was always available for any questions and very attentive to any of our needs. This lovely home was within walking distance of many restaurants and shopping. Salado was one of our favorite restaurants. Since we were there in summertime, we look for hiking trails, of which there is an abundance. I was so comfortable here, that I didn't want to leave. It is so pretty here in summertime that I can only imagine the views in the winter! I hope we will be welcome again.

The Best Cabin in Fairplay

The pictures for this property hardly do it justice! Everything in this cabin (decor, appliance quality) was above and beyond what we expected. Old is not a bad thing, but everything seemed brand new and tastefully chosen. Furniture and beds were super comfortable as well as the rest of the house. It was so close to shopping, restaurants and a beautiful river for hiking and enjoying the breathtaking views. The “transaction” was seamless and the hostess could not have been more accessible and informative. Super Big Bang for the buck. Thanks Sheree! (We are so buying that blanket),

Excellent & Homey

This was a great house with all the amenities of home. As you can see it was a 5 Star experience at “The Rock”. It is one of the nicest rental properties we’ve stayed at. The home has a great layout and beautifully decorated. It appears to have been recently remodeled and all was done in great taste. Very clean. Fresh towels and bed linens were very nice. Kitchen was fully equipped for our needs, too. Lots of games and videos for entertainment. There were even 6 bikes to choose from to ride down to FairPlay and enjoy this wonderful small town. Looking forward to our next visit. Owner made sure we could find everything we needed. Thanks Sheree! Mark and Ann

Stress Free

Our family stayed at the house for a few days and we loved it. The welcome booklet answered all questions and provided all the information we needed. The house was very open and relaxing and we were comfortable immediately. All coordination was timely and courteous. The entire process was stress free and we had zero complaints about the house.

A bit out of the way, but a nice place

Our family of 4 stayed here for a late winter weekend and enjoyed our stay. The rooms and bathrooms were nice, the beds were comfortable, and it is light, airy and clean. The property is about 30 minutes from Breckenridge, but with little traffic, it was an easy drive. We went to one surprisingly nice restaurant in Fairplay (Salado). We didn't have a chance to check out the brewery or winery in town, but cool they have them! There is a grocery near by. The only complaint we had was the temperature was 52 in the house when we arrived, and it didn't warm up until the next evening. But since the beds were warm, it was fine. Overall, a great stay!

One of my favorite stays

This place was very clean and has everything you need for a few nights or even more. It was perfect for my group. It's in a very quiet little town right outside of Breckenridge, only about a 30 min drive. It's perfect if you're trying to ski the mountains in the area but don't want to be in the busy tourist towns and don't mind a short scenic drive. We will definitely be staying again and telling our friends about this beautiful stay!

Skip Breckenridge, Stay in Fairplay!

Sheree and family gave us a fantastic experience and I'm so glad we stayed in Fairplay versus Breckenridge. No crowds, no expensive meals. Just perfect. The house was spacious and immaculate and was very cozy. The gas fireplace was a nice touch after snowboarding all day in Breckenridge. Everything was updated to the 9's and the master bedroom was beyond comfortable. Access to the house was a breeze and communication with the owner was great. Don't waste thousands by staying right at the slopes. Save a few bucks and stay in Fairplay. A small town that has a couple restaurants, shops, and a great distillery that's a step back in time. Thanks for the great vacation!!

About the host

Hosted by Sheree

Host profile image
We are a couple who have lived in Fairplay for a number of years. We love the mountains and the small town feel. We also like that we’re so close to a number of other interesting towns: Breckenridge, Buena Vista & Salida.
Our interests include hiking, skiing, camping, canoeing and biking—& being curious about what comes next.

Why they chose this property

We bought this place so out-of-towners can experience our beautiful town. Many people have stayed in Fairplay and skied in Breckenridge, finding Fairplay to be more laid back and less expensive. We’re only 30 minutes away and there’s even a bus shuttle within walking distance that will take you to Breckenridge.
Fairplay has also come a long way, with lots of new restaurants & shops, and we even have a new food truck, The Green Leaf Kitchen, specializing in organic juices and protein bowls.
Our place, The Rock, has been completely updated and everyone who has stayed here has commented on what a lovely place we’ve created, from the thick towels, organic sheets and household products to our modern mountain decor. We wanted to build the kind of place where we would want to stay, Check out our ratings, we’ve attained the level of Super Host!

What makes this property unique

A beautiful, calming feel as soon as you walk through the door. It’s light, lots of sunshine, high ceilings, gas fireplace, brand new fully-equipped kitchen, great internet and lots more! And everything is new & colorful! There’s also a Welcome Book listing all the restaurants and highlights of our town.
