At Salt Lick Condo, trails begin right outside your back door. Inside this 2-bed, 2-bath, 1,067 square foot end unit in Silverthorne, the living room has room to truly spread out, the full-size washer and dryer handles the reality of mountain weekends, and the primary bath has a jetted tub waiting after a long day outside. The deck looks straight into Wildernest Open Space, with national forest standing behind it. You wanted a place where the mountain is the back yard. This is that place.
Salt Lick Condo sits on the lower stretch of Ryan Gulch Road in Silverthorne, with the Salt Lick trail system running directly behind the property.
Higher up Ryan Gulch Road, the Lily Pad Lake Trailhead, the Buffalo Mountain trailhead, and the trail to Willow Creek Falls open up a deeper menu of Wildernest hiking within a short drive.
The Summit Stage bus stop near the complex connects to the free county-wide system, which means owners and guests can reach Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper Mountain, Frisco, and Dillon without ever getting in a car.
Lake Dillon sits less than five miles away, with the Dillon Amphitheater drawing summer concert crowds and the shoreline path circling water that fills with sailboats from Memorial Day through September.
Frisco Marina is roughly seven miles south, with paddleboard and pontoon rentals on Dillon Reservoir, and Peak One Campground and the Frisco Adventure Park sit just beyond. Bluebird Market and the Silverthorne Outlets handle errands and dinner without a long drive.

Yes. Short-term rental licensing in this part of Summit County is administered by the county, and Salt Lick Condo sits within the Lower Blue Basin zone. That zone currently operates on a waitlist, but the wait is shorter than in several other Summit County rental zones, which makes it one of the more accessible STR zones in the area for second-home owners who want rental flexibility.
Yes. Without an STR license, you can still rent the property mid-term at 30 days or more, seasonally at three to six months, or long-term at twelve months or more. That gives owners a path to rental income while waiting for an STR license to come through the Lower Blue Basin waitlist, and it also opens the door to the steady demand for seasonal housing in Summit County from traveling professionals and winter workforce renters.
The HOA at Salt Lick Condo handles grounds maintenance, the onsite hot tub, and exterior building upkeep, which keeps the property in strong condition without owner involvement. For a current breakdown of HOA dues and what they include, the listing agent at The Skinner Team can provide the full disclosure packet.
Wildernest Open Space and national forest land sit directly behind the building, with the Salt Lick trail system starting at the back of the property. Owners hike and snowshoe straight from the door without getting in a car, and wildlife moving through the open space is part of the daily view from the deck.
Lake Dillon is less than five miles away, with the Dillon Amphitheater on the same shoreline. Summer brings free and ticketed concerts at the amphitheater, sailboat traffic across the reservoir, and the paved Summit County rec path running along the water for biking, walking, and running.
Five ski areas sit within thirty minutes of the building: Breckenridge, Keystone, Arapahoe Basin, Loveland, and Copper Mountain. Vail and Beaver Creek are under an hour. The Summit Stage bus stop is roughly 400 feet from the building entrance.
Summer in Wildernest runs from late May through early October, with hiking and biking from the door, paddleboarding and sailing on Dillon Reservoir, and concerts at the Dillon Amphitheater on most weekends.
