Amazing place for a getaway! My family stayed a couple days to ski at Monarch (first time skiing there). The cabin was very clean, cozy, and an amazing view. Loved having the wood stove available in the evenings. Hoping to stay again for more skiing - and to explore the area in the summer.

Beautiful property made for a great getaway

This cozy remodeled cabin was perfect for our family. We loved the layout of the cabin, and the deck in the back gave us amazing views of the valley. It had all the amenities we could want, and when we needed something, the hosts were quick to respond and easy to work with. Perfect launching point for many of the adventures to be had in Chaffee county!

We love staying at this cabin. This is our third say here and we love the quiet location, the pretty view from the deck, and the closeness to town. It's rustic and extremely comfortable. This place has all the amenities we need. The kitchen is great. And the check-in process was a breeze. We will stay here often!

Perfect spot to relax after a long day of hiking

This cabin was a perfect place to relax and recharge after days of hiking and exploring. The deck is ideal for stargazing and for watching the sun rise with a cup of coffee in the morning. Beds are super comfortable, and the sounds of the nearby creek lulled us to sleep. The kitchen has everything we needed for preparing meals.
