Silver Fox Lodge is a mountain sanctuary that combines timeless design with contemporary functionality. The 8 all-ensuite bedroom estate sits on 3.51 wooded acres, with an adjacent 1-acre parcel offering opportunities for expansion—think a guest house or multi-purpose barn. The home enjoys breathtaking views of the South Valley and Ski Area while bordering over 10,000 acres of U.S. Forest Service land that promises privacy and access to outdoor recreation. The retreat is only 6 miles from Steamboat Springs, balancing tranquility with convenience. Inside, timeless interiors are designed for both everyday living and hosting on a grand scale. Short term rentals are allowed, and the county location is not subject to the Steamboat Springs 9% short term rental tax. Vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams anchor the great room, where large windows frame forest views. The dual kitchen is tailored for entertaining, with multiple refrigerators/freezers, ranges, sinks, and dishwashers. With granite counters, generous cabinetry, and 2 pantries, the kitchen is practical yet elegant. The primary suite features a loft with panoramic views, ideal for a yoga studio or meditation space. Open-air living spaces have been integrated into the property’s natural surroundings. Patios feature a firepit and 2 hot tubs, perfect for unwinding after a day of adventure. Two elevated decks extend the home’s entertaining spaces and present sweeping views of the valley and forest. A heated driveway leads to a 4-car garage with additional parking for recreational vehicles. Located on Rabbit Ears Pass, this estate provides access to public lands for snowmobiling, hiking, mountain biking, and backcountry skiing. Two golf courses are also less than 5 miles away, and world-class skiing, dining, and entertainment are just minutes down the mountain. For those seeking space, privacy, and outdoor adventure, this property is an extraordinary find in one of Colorado's most beloved mountain towns.
