Have a gorgeous mountain home submission or a great story idea you’d like to share?
The editors of Mountain Living are always looking for stunning homes to feature, from luxurious high-country retreats to charming guest cabins, with styles that range from traditional to contemporary. If you’d like to submit a home for consideration, below are a few tips for getting published on their pages.
BEFORE SUBMITTING
Familiarize yourself with Mountain Living’s editorial content; how features are written and what departments are included. You will save yourself time by understanding the content before you send your pitch.
CRITERIA FOR CONSIDERATION
- The homeowners have given their permission to publish the home in Mountain Living via the 2024 Homeowners Release.
- The home is not for sale or about to go on the market.
- The project has not been previously published in print or digital magazine sites. (Projects published on your website for marketing purposes are okay.)
- The project is located in the Rocky Mountain West.
- The home is a lived-in residence—no model or spec homes, please.
- Consideration can take up to two months and ML will respond to the submitter either way. Please feel free to follow up via email if you haven’t heard back from them.
- In addition to home submissions, they are always on the lookout for unique boutiques, talented artists and craftspeople. Please send your queries to greatideas@mountainliving.com

2. Include a brief description of the home with size, location and any distinctive details, with architect and designer contact information.
3. Attach a signed homeowner’s release form. (They are unable to consider homes for publication without a signed release form.)
4. Include high res images of the exterior, great room, kitchen, dining area, master bedroom and bath. Please send via non-expiring Dropbox folder.
