The Cardinal's Nest

03/07/2024

Dear Guests and Friends,

As the sun sets on our beloved mountain retreat, we bid a fond farewell to this cherished haven that has provided countless memories and moments of joy. Nestled on 5.46 acres of pristine wilderness in the coveted Mesa Antero area, this secluded paradise has been more than just a vacation rental home – it's been a sanctuary for adventure, relaxation, and connection.

With its D-log siding, wrap-around deck, and breathtaking mountain views, this home has exuded rustic charm and offered a cozy mountain lodge experience like no other. From the warmth of three indoor fireplaces to the serenity of the outdoor fireplace on the deck, every corner of this home has been imbued with love and laughter.

We're grateful for the opportunity to have shared this space with each and every one of you, and we're humbled by the memories that have been created within these walls. As we say goodbye to this chapter, we're filled with gratitude for the moments shared, the friendships formed, and the beauty of the Colorado mountains that have surrounded us.

To the new owners who will soon call this place home, may it bring you as much joy, peace, and adventure as it has brought us. And to our guests, past, present, and future, may the memories made here continue to linger in your hearts long after your stay.

-The Cardinal’s Nest ❤️
