Shining Mountain 3 Br./2.5 Ba./Den/STR2023-014

Affectionately known as "the retreat center," this handcrafted home is a sanctuary of stories and global treasures nestled on five acres of pinion-juniper woodland. Located just two miles from Ridgway and moments from Orvis Hot Springs, the property balances secluded serenity with convenient access to town. It serves as an unparalleled basecamp for the mountain soul, offering iconic views of the Mt. Sneffels Range and immediate proximity to the RAT trails, Ouray Ice Park, and local ski areas. Beyond the local terrain, the legendary slopes of Telluride are just a scenic 45-mile drive away, making this the ideal hub for hiking, mountain biking, 4-wheeling, and world-class climbing.

The interior is designed to meet the spirit of adventure with the deep solace of home. The heart of the house is an expansive great room featuring a newly remodeled chef’s kitchen—complete with a six-burner gas range and premium cookware—which flows into a cozy living area designed for long conversations or quiet movie nights. Every corner feels curated and intentional, from the two serene queen bedrooms to the unique character of the bathrooms. For those living the rugged mountain lifestyle, the home is fully equipped with a laundry room and a spacious, carpeted garage perfect for sorting gear or drying out kits after a day in the snow or on the summer trails.

The true soul of the retreat is found on the deck facing the mountains, where the massive views command your attention and invite you to stay a while. When you are ready to venture out, Ridgway offers boutique coffee shops, local dining, and the Mt. Market grocery store just minutes away, while Montrose is a convenient 30-minute drive for major retailers. Guests can immerse themselves in the local culture at Ridgway Town Park, including the vibrant Thursday night concert series if visiting in July. After a day in the high country, you can unwind in the region’s renowned mineral waters at Ouray Hot Springs or the tranquil Orvis Hot Springs just down the road. Per county rules, one trailer is allowed on-site, with additional parking nearby to ensure your stay is perfectly seamless.
