Luxury Villa with unobstructed Rocky Mountain & nature views in every direction

This unique Spanish-style villa was originally custom built as an artist's retreat for painting the stunning unobstructed landscapes that surround it in every direction.

Enjoy the spectacular sunrises, sunsets, Colorado wildlife views, distant storm clouds, and nighttime stargazing at the Milky Way without background light pollution. Only 1 mile from the charming town of La Veta, Colorado with skiing, golf, horseback riding, fishing, hiking, art, festivals, and more nearby. Your Highway of Legends National Scenic Byway journey starts here!
3 huge bedrooms, 3 1/2 baths, two large sitting areas including a Great Room with 85" smart TV, fiberoptic GB internet, a stage area, an office with amazing 270-degree views, a chef's kitchen with premier appliances, an elegant dining room and table that seats 10, and featuring museum-quality custom art by acclaimed artist Joan Hanley.

Fantastic Views!

This house was amazing! The views of the lakes and wildlife were stunning, and the inside, artistic design was quite inspirational! We ventured out in a different direction each day to explore the nearby trails in different parks and enjoyed eating at the local restaurants. We will definitely be back!

Our Villa stay @ La Veta

The property exceeded all our expectations. It was referred to as a Villa and it lived up to everything this name exudes. The property is beautiful and the views of the Spanish Peaks and surrounding area from the vantage point it is situated on are gorgeous. It was a wonderful experience and I would recommend this property without hesitation.

Beautiful Property

This home is exactly as pictured on VRBO. The home is absolutely beautiful and spacious. The home was built by a talented artist. You will find her art throughout the property. The view of the mountains at this property are incredible. Peter was easy to contact and communicate with. You won't be sorry when you stay at this fabulous home.

Amazing views!

We were so overjoyed to stay at Peter’s place! The location of the property is perfect for enjoying the gorgeous views from every direction. The home’s spacious split-level layout was exactly what our family of 8 needed. We enjoyed cooking in the large kitchen and eating around a table that fit us perfectly! There is lots of fun and interesting art to look at, including paintings, prints, sculptures, and mixed media pieces. The home also has a large selection of books to read and music to play. (There are Bluetooth options too!). All of the beds were comfortable, and the homes heated floors were a welcome feature in February! I could go on, but suffice it to say, we will be back!

Unbelievable Views from Every Room

Our family of four rented this house for Thanksgiving to get away somewhere secluded and pretty, and we were absolutely blown away. There are gorgeous, unobstructed views of the mountains in every direction and the house has plenty of space around it for privacy. We absolutely loved our stay and even experienced visits from deer and a fox while we were there. The heated floors kept everything nice and warm even though it snowed mid-week, and there's plenty of sun exposure during the day to keep the living spaces heated. The house is very well appointed and we were able to cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner without difficulty. There's plenty of space to spread out and lots of art throughout the property to enjoy. The property owner was very responsive and kind, and accommodated all of our requests for health and safety with regards to COVID-19. We would gladly stay there again in the future, and highly recommend it.

Beautiful home with amazing views

This is a beautiful home with amazing views from every area of the house. The art work was phenomenal. This was a sibling reunion. We fished at North Lake and Monument Lake each day. In the evenings, there was a large entertaining area where we could sit and enjoy each others company. Wonderful experience.

Getting away from it all

We had never stayed in the LaVeta area and came away impressed. State Parks are near by, mountain hikes, lakes, wild life and, of course, the great sand dunes. The home itself is on on a very high point giving excellent views. It is near town but still very rural. The deer quickly introduce themselves and we saw several fawns being fed by mom. This house is well appointed and was likely stunning when new. The home is aging a bit and there is some deferred maintenance but nothing that really impacted us. We had a couple small issues during our stay that the owners had taken care of immediately which was appreciated. Lastly, this was the home of an artist so there is a lot of art in and around the property. The art is tasteful but some of the work has adult themes - just something to consider if you have kids.
