Drake Apartment | Cozy Rocky Mountain Escape

1 Bedroom Apartment in Drake

Wake up to a breathtaking sunrise and wind down with golden mountain sunsets—all from your private suite nestled in a hidden-away high mountain meadow with sweeping views of the Continental Divide. Just 20 minutes from Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, world-class rock climbing at Lumpy Ridge, and fly fishing on the Big Thompson River, this peaceful retreat offers the best of both adventure and solitude.
Your suite is a cozy, self-contained space with a private entrance and keypad check-in. It features a queen bed, a well-equipped kitchenette, and thoughtful touches like coffee and tea to start your mornings right. Step outside to your own seating area and fire up the propande firepet — perfect for s’mores under the stars or sipping on coffee/tea with a view.
We're located in the quiet mountain community of Storm Mountain, tucked away in Roosevelt National Forest. Palisade Mountain trailhead is just five minutes away, and you'll find plenty of scenic hikes right out your door. Though remote, the suite has reliable WiFi so you can stay connected and work if needed (note: no cell reception, but WiFi calling works well).
If you're looking to truly disconnect and recharge in nature, this is the place.
A few notes:
Elevation is 7,100 ft—breathtaking views guaranteed!
2WD is fine most of the time. 4WD with snow tires or chains may be needed if it snows (it snows less here than places like Vail as we are on the east side of the Continental Divide).
Well-behaved dogs, cats, or other pets are welcome. Pet fee is $20 (via website, Venmo, PayPal, or cash).
No pets left alone in the suite
Keep dogs leashed—our neighbors have free-range chickens
No pets on the furniture or bed
Whether you're here to hike, climb, fish, or just breathe in the mountain air, we’d love to host you at our secret spot in the Rockies.

Summary: Not only were the instructions to get there super important and given in advance because you do lose signal, but everything was lit up so well when arriving it felt like a breath of fresh air stepping out and having a place that screamed "here you are"!!!! Cozy, quaint, peaceful little "studio" mad my wife and I go, "this is what we need"! Loved it and loved the people who own it and didn't even have to meet in person. Bless Jehovah for people like this that can open their home to share dreams!
