Visitors arriving in the circular drive are greeted by mountain vistas through the entry doors from the wall of glass beyond. This airiness is carried into the great room with fourteen-foot tray ceilings and an open floor plan that readily accommodates large social gatherings or moments of quiet reflection. Activity flows naturally from the dining room, to the great room, to the living room, and into the kitchen where an island, wet bar, and a dining nook create a natural hub for informal meals and socializing. Please let us know if we can provide anything to make your stay more convenient or entertaining for your family members or guests.
