Silver Wood Inn Bed and Breakfast is the contemporary home of Bess and Larry Oliver set in rural Colorado, 30 miles west of Colorado Springs.

Silver Wood Inn Bed & Breakfast is off the beaten path. Guests come here for the stillness, the great breakfasts, the views and the hosts. Breakfast is served in the Great Room that features a 20 foot long wall of 10 foot high windows that looks into a stand of aspen. Deer have left breath marks on those windows. A bear left nose prints and a paw print there. Unfortunately, we can't guarantee how the wild animals will behave on any given day. But its a real show when one decides to stop by.

After breakfast guests can walk the Fairy Slipper Trail that passes near the inn. In April, there are the pasque flowers which are the first blossoms of the year and there are surprise snow storms. In May, the aspen are dressing for the summer. In early June, you can see the rare fairy slipper. In late June, you can find clusters of columbine. All through the summer there's a varying selection of wildflowers.

Silver Wood Inn Bed & Breakfast is at 9,200 feet above sea level. The mountains of Continental Divide are in clear view to the west and because of the clean air its hard to believe that they are 70 miles away. Lower mountains fill the scene in between Silver Wood and the Continental Divide. Pikes Peak dominates the landscape to the southeast.

If you ever drive off the paved road you're either in our driveway or you're lost.
