Our house is on one of the quietest streets in Serene Lakes. We are two blocks in one direction from the boat house from where we paddle our kayak, paddle board, or paddle boat across Ice Lakes to the beautiful, quiet beach on the other side, fishing along the way. Two blocks in the other direction is Royal Gorge trail access for hiking, mountain biking, and skiing. One of the most popular sledding hills in Serene Lakes is just two doors down. The house is sturdy and spacious with beautiful views from three different decks. The 2nd floor kitchen and living area are updated and cozy, and the 1st and 2nd floors provide ample space for our large family to spread out when needed. Our kids love playing ping pong in the first floor rec room. We love to cook in the well-appointed 2nd floor kitchen, and we like the bonus kitchen on the 1st floor for extra fridge space or when there are many cooks feeding a crew. The timed floor heating in the kitchen feels luxurious when making breakfast on a cold morning. We looked at cabins in Serene Lakes ranging from uncomfortably ostentatious to cold and rustic. When we first walked into this place we immediately felt the perfect blend of a comfortable, clean, and spacious cabin that still had a woodsy warmth.
