Riverside Home, Private Fishing, Barrel Sauna, Fire Pit

This renovated home with a sprawling acre of lawn on the Ark is the perfect take out for the Milk Run or launch for Browns Canyon on a private boat ramp. Fish from lush grass, sweat in the sauna, lounge on the deck, play games on the lawn and gather around the fire pit. A well-equipped kitchen helps you craft gourmet meals. New beds and high-quality linens provide restful nights. Use as home base for whitewater rafting, kayaking, paddle boarding, rock climbing, fly fishing, mountain biking, or hiking.

We enjoyed our stay. The house was well equipped and very comfortable. The location by the river was unbeatable. We, understandably, didn’t spend a bunch of time inside but it was a great place to come back to when our adventures were over for the day. We’ll be back.
