Cuchara, The Real Colorado
"From the rocking chairs on the main street you can inhale the aromas of wood smoke and ponderosa pine, listen to a dog barking a warning that the town bear is getting a little too close, relax... and remember why you fell in love with Colorado in the first place."  From Diane Carman's June 20th 2000 article in the Denver Post.

Originally Cuchara Camps, a summer resort, the Cuchara Valley's scenery is some of the best in the state.  Early settlers found the climate and soil in the high meadows well suited for growing potatoes, a crop also raised by the Indians. Cuchara is Spanish for spoon.   Take a walk on the Boardwalk in Cuchara - stop in for a cold one at the Boardwalk Saloon, also known by the locals as the "Dog Bar."

We have a great selection of Cuchara properties right now!  Call me to learn about other listings in Cuchara.

The story behind Burke's Lodge is the story of Cuchara itself!  This beautiful stone, log and cedar lodge in the middle of a lush meadow has an eclectic past, with as many twists and turns as  Dodgeton Creek itself.  The lodge has literally grown up with Cuchara.  Through the years, it has served many purposes, from a barn to an artist's studio to cozy summer lodge for generations of the Burke family.  Along the way, it has been home to a succession of well-known Cuchara residents.  The original building had its humble beginnings in 1927 as a horse stable, where, for a quarter of a century, locals and visitors alike launched excursions in the valley.  After a major renovation and construction project beginning in 1998, the lodge has evolved into a family home large enough for an army, but with all the rustic charm of the original horse barn.  4 bedrooms, 4 baths, 1 bunk loft, 1 huge upstairs bonus room, security system, large new kitchen with all built-in appliances, custom front Dutch doore with hammered iron hardware, original stone well with pulley, custom log playhouse, sprinkler system, kitchen utility room with 2 refrigerators, washer/dryer, huge master bedroom with his and hers closets, fireplace, split log ceiling, river rock fireplace in living room.
