Spa Amenities and Incredible Views - Majestic Mountain Haven

Pioneer Retreat at Moose Lodge is a unique grand timber standalone log A-Frame with an energy all its own. Designed with post & beam architecture, this mountain escape was constructed with enormous logs that will leave you in awe. Gaze out at the most amazing panoramic mountain vista views & Immerse yourself in nature & all that the Rockies have to offer just steps from your front door. Indulge your senses with in-house spa amenities & experience a deeper sense of connection to nature, family & friends. Pioneer Retreat is a playground for adults & kids. Sitting proud on a large treed lot, the views from the deck & from the inside living spaces will take your breath away. Outside features include a fire ring/pit for those looking for a more rustic camping experience. Sit around the fire on the large benches & tell stories as the sun sets on the mountain. For kids, the on-site teepee will provide hours of entertainment. There are options for dinners including a large patio table, a picnic table in the yard by the fire pit, or a more traditional dinner inside in the large expansive dining area with optional seating at the over-sized kitchen island. After dinner hop in the hot tub or in-house infrared sauna, enjoy a glass of wine while star gazing on the deck or private balcony off of the upstairs bedroom, or sink into “Big Red”, the comfy oversized red chair in the loft & read a book or stare out the huge windows & take in the mountain vista views. The large wood stove provides a cozy atmosphere to play board games, put together puzzles, or just relax & reconnect while the heated floors provide warmth with radiant heating throughout the house. The sleeping spaces are set up for maximum privacy with a primary bedroom with KIng bed, large walk-in closet, blackout shades, TV, & en-suite with jetted tub on the same level as the main living spaces (living room, kitchen, dining room, & laundry). On the lower level (also the entry level) Thidwick the big-hearted moose welcomes you. If you don’t know his story, during your stay you can read his book by Dr. Seuss. On this level you will find more entertainment with a TV, Foosball table, & queen sleeper sofa. Next to the TV room is a separate guest bedroom & full bathroom. This is a separate entertainment area to kick back in the comfy sofa & loveseat & watch a family movie. Upstairs you are greeted by a large spacious loft, & a small hideaway nook for a little one to curl up away from activities. The queen bedroom next to the loft is perfect for those who want to sit & enjoy a morning coffee on the private balcony or work remotely with privacy using the desk/chair provided. The large log constructed bed adds character to the room & is incredibly comfortable. Access is provided to the attached bathroom with oversized tub & infrared sauna to soothe those aching muscles after hiking or skiing. On the same level. you will find the “Fortress” a bunk bed room that has a Harry Potter vibe with 6 heavy wood constructed built in bunkbeds each with it’s own reading light. You won’t find this anywhere else & the design is genius for providing privacy for sleeping & yet perfect for play time with the toys & games provided. This room also has it’s own TV. Please note that one of the bunk beds is a child size space. As an alternative there is an adult size floor mattress behind the chair in the loft if needed.
