One of my favorite vacation spots is the  snow covered mountains in Colorado. I’m not a huge fan of skiing (I’m actually horrible at it) or being cold;  but I love the simplicity of the small towns, watching the snow fall and of course the gorgeous interiors. I try to grab a few of the local real estate and design magazines and bring them back to the hotel.  I love poring over them and taking in all of the rustic details, wide open windows and of course seeing the views that each home boasts.  Views sell in the mountains for sure and I love seeing how they bring the outside in to many of the stunning homes.

We were not able to visit the Colorado mountains this winter, but we definitely going to plan a trip to visit this summer!  Here are a few of my favorite Colorado spaces. I personally prefer more of the modern rustic feel with updated appliances and sleek lines while still staying true to the mountain environment!  So for now, my stacks of magazines will have to wait until we can check this one off the bucket list!  Here are a few of my favorite inspiration images. Who knows, maybe someday soon we can put them to use!

Here are a few pics of us taking in a Colorado fall. It was on this trip that I realized how much I loved the mountains. Peace, quite and a world full of beautiful and natural surroundings. Sure does make it hard to return to the busy city life!  Image Via: Annie X Photography
