Loved our recent stay at these quaint, homey cabins. We had 3 kids with us - 15,13, and 9. We had the Polar Bear cabin, which had 3 bedrooms. The kitchen was equipped well enough with what we needed, and each room had a queen size bed. There was also a sofa bed in the living room. The cabin itself was what you'd expect in the great outdoors - rustic, simple, and with the occasional critter or two. The area surrounding the cabin was beautiful, and the Vallecito Lake was within walking distance. We explored during the day and enjoyed spending the evenings back at the property playing cards at the picnic table, badminton matches, ladderball, horseshoes, and swinging on the playset. The property manager was available when needed and kind, helping us choose a fantastic hike and recommend local establishments nearby. We will happily choose Bear Paw Lodge again when we visit Colorado!

Everything was clean but the bedrooms were extremely small. With no A/C it got very hot indoors. The host was very nice. It was a long way to the water. We had to drive there.

Bare bones and no communication/information
very bare bones- no paper towel, shampoo, etc. Pilot light out on stove, had to manually light gas burners each time used, told Rick, the owner, he said wind probably blew it out, but didn't fix it and cabin smelled like gas the whole time, no communication on satellite tv use, very little communication about necessary things like wifi, no one in office at all while we were there 3 days, no sheets or pillow left for pull out bed/couch

Enjoyed our stay near the lake.
We staed in a small cabin for 4 nights and had an excellent time. The cabin itself was fine, furnishings were a bit old and worn, but not terrible. There was nothing wrong with it. Everything worked. For the money, it was an excellent value. The property manager was easy to contact. These cabins are located in a beautiful place.
