The Double Diamond, a cozy mountain home

When we bought this home it needed a lot of work, so that's exactly what we gave it! We created a cozy home with great views and new furnishings. We had the idea of a vacation rental in mind from the beginning of the project. This guided our decision-making process about what to change or leave out. Our project included creating a duplex with an apartment upstairs with a separate entrance. The home and town will leave you wanting to come back again and again, and we hope you do! Our guest house is located one block off of the OHV route which makes for a nice quiet retreat in town. In the summer the old train can be seen puffing its way into town right from the living room and a waterfall on Kendall Mountain can be heard from the front yard. The home itself is super cozy and all the furnishings are new. You will have access to a private downstairs apartment, while the upstairs apartment is also a long-term rental. You will have a private entry to a 2/3 bedroom and 1 bath apartment with a conveniently designed kitchen and two very nice living rooms. The kitchen comes stocked with everything one might need to prepare a meal. Coffee is supplied and basic spices are included for cooking. There are two TVs in the home that have access to Netflix and one DVD player, but there is no cable TV. Calvin and Megan will be available to help in any way you may need because they live in their new home right next door. Whether it is an issue with the home, suggestions on where to eat, what to do around town, or planning outdoor activities, feel free to ask. You may also see the renters in the upstairs unit in passing. You can walk anywhere in town. Our vacation rental is about one block from the Grocery Store, Liquor Store, and Hardware Store. Sometimes in the winter the mountain passes close in both directions (due to avalanches) and access to Silverton is completely cut off. This is our favorite time in town, but it can ruin travel plans. Make sure to plan accordingly.
