Imagine a vacation where the only things you
hear are the birds, a gentle breeze in the trees and nothing but
peace. Our beautiful 2,300 square foot, 3 story home is set in 3 completely private
tranquil, pine and
aspen woodland acres of high Colorado mountain woodland.
This is a reality
when you stay at "Woodland Park Retreat", in the beautiful Rocky
Mountain alpine paradise
of Woodland Park just 40 minutes from Colorado Springs,
Colorado, U.S.A.

In spring, high mountain alpine flowers
are in abundance and you will see entire
fields of the beautiful yellow black- eyed Susan's (like
small sunflowers) or a myriad of the red bell tulip flowers that the hummingbirds like so much!
There is a hummingbird feeder in the
tree growing through the deck so you get a close up
view! |
|
Winter time is deceiving - you could
have a foot of snow but with the strong winter sunshine
it may disappear in a day or two and Christmas has been
known to be 60 degrees and "sitting on the deck"
weather. One thing for sure, a snow storm is magical and
snow is short lived in this climate. In Colorado we have
a saying "if you don’t like the weather, wait 10
minutes!" |
