Enjoy the end of your day among the rosy clouds of sunset. Our bed, surrounded by Roman columns and overhung with lush flowers, creates a fanciful setting for cuddling in front of the gas corner fireplace with dancing flames. Watch the sun set over Pikes Peak from your private sitting room. Whirlpool tub for two and separate shower in bathroom featuring hand-painted floral tile murals inset in hues of rose and burgundy.
