About the Property
The Topaz Owl Townhouse is one of two stunning townhouses located in the cabin, which affords the convenience of additional space for larger groups. Given that the two townhouses share an interior wall, guests may experience some noise transfer between the townhouses. For those traveling with extended family or friends or seeking additional peace and privacy, you can book The Sapphire Owl Townhouse as well and accommodate up to 13 guests in total. While the townhouses share a front deck and outdoor space and amenities behind the cabin, walls separate the interiors and back decks so that guests can enjoy the privacy and comfort of each townhouse. For even larger groups, guests can rent The Sapphire & Topaz Owl townhouses alongside the neighboring Ruby and Garnet Owl townhouses (which are located in the cabin next door) and host up to 27 guests in one convenient location (known as "The Gemstone Owl Retreat").
Why Choose The Topaz Owl?
From stunning mountain views and cozy interiors to its unbeatable downtown location, The Topaz Owl has everything you need for a memorable getaway. Whether you’re exploring local trails, sipping coffee on the deck, or gathering with friends or family, this cabin offers the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.
