Discover an exceptional short-term rental opportunity in the highly desirable St Mary’s Glacier area of Idaho Springs. This furnished, custom-built 2-bedroom, 1-bath modern mountain cottage is thoughtfully designed for comfort, durability, and guest appeal—making it ideal as a turnkey vacation rental or year-round/vacation home for yourself.
Inside, guests will love the open-concept layout with high ceilings, tall doors, and wood plank tile flooring throughout, creating a bright, modern mountain feel that photographs beautifully for listings. The stylish kitchen features a smart refrigerator, white quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, range, microwave, and dishwasher, great for extended stays. The primary bedroom offers a relaxing retreat, the second bedroom’s built-in loft/bunk beds maximize sleeping capacity—an STR favorite. A spa-inspired bathroom with marble tile and a sleek, modern shower adds a touch of luxury. The cozy stone fireplace enhances the year-round rental appeal, especially during Colorado’s colder months.
Outdoor amenities truly set this property apart. Guests can unwind in the private hot tub with sweeping mountain views, gather around the fire pit, and grill—features proven to boost nightly rates and reviews.

The charming town of Idaho Springs—home to local shops, dining, and the popular Indian Hot Springs—is only 15 minutes away via I-70, making this an easy and attractive destination for guests year-round.
Additional highlights include ample off-street parking for up to four vehicles, year-round maintained roads. Whether you’re looking to expand your investment portfolio or enjoy personal use while generating rental income, this mountain cottage offers an outstanding opportunity in the vacation-rental market.
