Blue River Escape Home: Peaceful, On River
3 BR + Loft, 2 BA Home – Gorgeous Riverfront Setting – On Shuttle Route – Sleeps 8!
***Please Note: The outdoor firepit has been removed from the property and is no longer available due to fire restrictions***
Imagine this for your next mountain escape: a lovely setting right on the Blue River, peace and quiet, and just a short drive to downtown Breck and the slopes. Don't want to deal with the hassle of parking, no problem, this home is only a short walk away from the Breckenridge Free Ride shuttle stop that can take you and your family straight to downtown and the chairlifts. This is the quintessential Colorado mountain experience – your family and friends will love it!
This cozy 3-bedroom + loft, 2-bathroom home is perfect for up to eight guests. The Blue River community is a close drive to town; it’s a popular place for people looking to escape the hustle and bustle of downtown Breck but be “close to the action.” You’ll also love the nearby hiking/biking/snowshoeing trails! Just a short walk away from the Breckenridge Free Ride shuttle stop to whisk you and your guests away to the mountains while being able to avoid the headache of last-minute downtown parking.
Inside, the living area features a gas stove, comfy seating, and large windows that fill the area with natural light. Just outside, there’s a great deck sitting next to the river with a table and chairs, making it the perfect place to enjoy the cool mountain breeze. The kitchen has quartz counters and stainless-steel appliances, as well as all the gear you’ll need to whip up a culinary mountain masterpiece. The farmhouse style table in the dining room has room for six, and there’s room for two more at the breakfast bar.
There’s also a full laundry area and complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the home. Plus, every Summit Mountain Rentals property comes stocked with plenty of linens, towels and hotel-like toiletries, and is professionally cleaned and inspected before each arrival. Our helpful staff is also available 24 hours a day to ensure you have everything you need to make your stay with us an unforgettable experience.

Great property right on the river in a quiet area with easy access to breck. House was comfortable and clean. Host communication was excellent. Only bummer was not being able to use the fire pit out back due to “hoa rules” but everything else was perfect.
Great location near town and enough space for everyone to spread out. Kids enjoyed playing in the snow and exploring the outside area.Nice to be able to access the shed to store outdoor equipment.
Loved the location just south of Breck. Very quite except for listening to the Small River right behind the house. 😃 Great communication with easy check in, etc. would definitely stay there again!!
Great location. Very clean and spacious. Quaint creek running along the back of the cabin. Outside yard could better maintained. No gas grill. We would stay there again.
We stayed for a week and highly enjoyed it! The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of towels and blankets, easy to find and simple check in process. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean. We had 3 adults, 2 kids and had plenty of room (although the house isn't huge by any means) We absolutely loved the stream that runs thru the property. Breck is only 5 min drive and we liked that the house wasn't in th craziness of town. Would definitely stay again.
5 adults shared the house for a ski vacation. The house was clean with plenty of space for our group. It has a large kitchen. The appliances, including the clothes washer and dryer all worked. The temperature of the bedrooms was inconsistent. An electronic blanket was available. The bus stop is close but the bus times are limited. We chose to drive and park at the mountain. I would choose to stay here again.
Great value. Great spot. The river is beautiful. The immersion in the woods is amazing. Kitchen, outdoor tools, and linens all well stocked. Things that could be improved: Property does NOT have operational humidifiers (have two but they don’t work well, ran them for days without success) which makes the stay very hard on guests from out of town not adjusted to the dry air. I reached out to the property managers every day we were there and never got the situation resolved before our departure. Family had nose bleeds and poor sleep every night due to this issue for the whole trip. That said the location along the river and the price did make this a good option for our vacation, next time I’ll just bring my own humidifier so I can enjoy my vacation and sleep better. It’d be nice if cleaning crew could make sure all linens are in one spot. I had to look all over the house, each room and closet to find it all (it was not like the picture where there all on tha rack in the laundry) The game closet is crazy mess, nice there are games, but they’re messy and all are missing pieces. Just needs some TLC and clean up to make it a real feature.
Property was beautiful and a 5 minute drive to Breckenridge. The home itself is beautiful. Great views & convenient location. We had plenty of room for our group of six to spread out. We addressed a few minor things with the property manager upon arrival and it was handled without issue. My parents were arriving before us and we had spotty service out by Great Sand Dunes. The property manager was able to get in touch with my dad & get him the check in information... which I really though was above & beyond.
Shuttle stop is a short walk. Shuttle runs are only every couple of hours, so it was really not feasible for us. We found some games in the closet & enjoyed a game night. We loved the filtered water in the kitchen.
The only thing that really didn't work for us was the big TV being up in the loft. There was not enough sitting room for our family of six to have any type of movie night. The only other TV in public area was in the kitchen and had to be watched from the dining room table, which is certainly not ideal.
We wouldn't hesitate to stay at this property again. I'm in Louisiana missing my coffee by the river in the cool mornings already!

Reviewer Comments:
Summit Mountain Rentas customer service was extraordinary. House was ok
Great location, comfortable beds and a well-stocked kitchen made this rental a hit! The property is well-maintained, and the grounds are beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
This was the perfect cozy cabin in a really great location. Only took us about 5 minutes to drive into Main Street in Breckenridge. The fireplace was our favorite part and we loved using the family board games! Will absolutely book here again. No issues with arrival or departure, host was great. Only suggestion I can leave is maybe a fan and humidifier for every room- the cabin air does get really dry.
Our family of 4 fit perfectly in this cabin, the creek access was perfect for my two boys to do some fishing and the deck was great for watching them make memories. In the evenings we even had two fox visit us right up on the deck while we were inside!
