Investment Overview
Prime Investment Properties is pleased to present Hideaway Mountain Lodge, a 13-room mountain lodge on a private, secluded setting just outside Fraser, Colorado, about 10 miles from Winter Park Resort. The property is a fully functioning lodge today. It is also one of the few ready-built group-living assets available in the Fraser Valley, where new construction is costly, slow, and limited by land and housing constraints.
Built in the 1980s and since revitalized, the lodge combines the scale of a small hotel with the feel of a private mountain retreat. Its 13 rooms vary in size and layout, and each accommodates one to five guests. No two rooms are alike. Several rooms adjoin, which allows flexible configurations for families, teams, or shared housing. Select rooms have wood-burning fireplaces. All rooms have Wi-Fi, and none have TVs by design.
The shared amenities are what set the property apart from a typical lodging asset:
An indoor heated pool, hot tub, and dry sauna, open year-round
A game room with pool table and foosball, and a movie room with a library of more than 750 films
A library and quiet workspace
A breakfast program, with catering available for full-lodge bookings
An established group business that includes reunions, retreats, and small weddings
Beyond hotel operations. The same features that make the property work as a lodge also make it well suited to other uses, and that flexibility is the core of this opportunity:
Employee and workforce housing. In a valley where the largest employer houses fewer than 20 percent of its staff, 13 existing rooms with shared amenities give an employer, resort, ranch, or housing partner immediate capacity.
Corporate or leadership retreat, or a private company lodge, about two hours from the Denver metro.
Wellness, faith-based, or educational retreat center. The intentionally screen-free setting, the pool and sauna, and the group-ready common areas are already in place.
Private ski club, members' lodge, or multigenerational family compound near Winter Park, Granby Ranch, and national forest access.
Full-lodge buyout and event venue, building on the group and wedding business the lodge already has.
A buyer can continue the established lodging and group business, reposition the property around their own operation, or blend the two. For example, an owner could house staff seasonally and rent rooms to guests in the off-peak months.
