Alright guys/gals, i have a general question for all of you...well kinda more of a "would you use it" kind of question.
So you have had a heck of a long year, working is getting you down and you REALLY need to get away from it all and just relax! How about a nice relaxing vacation in the Rocky Mountains only minutes from world class hiking, skiing and fishing, plus an abundance of other activities to ease the tension?
Ok, so i know it sounds good...well GREAT!!! Here's my question...if a vacation property was offered to you with all of these things and at a discount off regular prices would you use it? My wife and i have moved one step closer to purchasing just such a place here in Colorado in one of the vacation hot spots...now to really seal the deal as to whether we should do it we need to get a general consensus as to if it would really be worth purchasing and renting out to people who would love to get away from it all. It currently sits less than 10 feet from the fall river with mountains on all sides and seclusion being its best asset. Less than 3 miles from Rocky Mountain National Park, and the same distance from the town of Estes Park (very awesome mountain community). Wildlife abounds everywhere in the area...this weekend alone we had elk drinking from the river right in front of the cabin (only feet from the front door), and there was a herd (if thats what you call it) of big horn sheep on the mountain across the river...very nice to watch.
Ok, so some info on the place, two bedroom, two bath, two person jacuzzi in the master bedroom, fully equiped kitchen, fireplace, cable tv, etc etc etc...all the amenities of home. Rates would be ~$140 night in the winter (mid Oct-mid May), ~$170 night spring (mid may-beginning of June), ~$200 night summer (mid june-mid august), and ~$190 fall (mid aug-mid Oct).
Ok, so what was i trying to acomplish...just a show of general interest, nothing more at this point, we need to see for ourselves that it would actually be used before we take that plunge and actually buy the place. So if you would be interested just say yes or no, that's it, nothing else, just help us make our decision.
Thank you, and "get away from flying for a few days"...there i tied it into flying, so now it should be able to be left here and not moved to another part of the website.
