About the neighborhood
Bayfield
Heart of Bayfield.You'll be within half a mile (1 km) of Vallecito Lake and 2 miles (3 km) of Los Pinos River with a stay here. Lake SImpatico Trailhead is within 9 miles (15 km) and Lemon Reservoir is within 12 miles (20 km).
Welcome to your ideal lakeside escape at our Rustic Colorado Mountain Cabin! With premier lakefront views, this charming wooden 2-bedroom cabin, crafted in the late '40s, perfectly blends mountain-style design with modern comforts.
Step into a spacious, single-story layout that’s easy to navigate, featuring a sunny gourmet kitchen stocked with all the essentials for your culinary adventures. Enjoy meals in the cozy kitchen nook with delightful window seating, or relax in the living room adorned with high-beam ceilings.
Both bedrooms feature newer medium-firm queen mattresses and charming décor, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. The glass double doors lead you to a stunning wood deck overlooking the lake, where you can unwind at the picnic table or in patio chairs. Below the deck, another picnic table awaits for outdoor gatherings.
Our cabin accommodates 4 adults comfortably, with the option for 2 children under 12 to sleep on the pull-out couch (a $35 linen fee applies for extra guests or use of the pull-out). Stay entertained with Netflix and complimentary Wi-Fi during your stay. Please remember, no smoking is allowed indoors—there’s a designated dispenser on the deck, please shut the door so smoke does not enter the cabin, thank you!
The living room and dining room are adjacent with high beam ceilings, wood floors and Colorado theme design. A large flat screen TV with Netfilx and Hi-speed internet. Many books on the area for your enjoyment and a beautiful space to unwind. Dining table seats 6.
We’re pet-friendly! One to two dogs are welcome for a $50 fee, pets are not allowed on the furniture or linens, please ensure they are crated if left alone in the cabin; always under your control; picked up after outside; any flea and tick issues resolved before your stay.
Situated in a friendly neighborhood, our two independent cabins share secluded access to the shoreline. A 100-foot natural deer trail (which can be steep) leads you to your private swimming and fishing spot. Enjoy shared amenities, including a 3-person rowboat, a stand-up paddleboard (SUP), fishing poles, and a tackle box to enhance your lake experience. The canoe, SUP and BBQ are not available from the end of October until mid-Spring.
Safety is paramount, so please use the outdoor gear at your own risk and ensure life jackets are worn when enjoying the lake. For fishing licenses and marina information, visit: https://vallecitolakemarina.net.
Due to the tree cover, trash trucks cannot access individual cabins, so guests are responsible for taking their trash to the dumpsters located on the main road. To ensure you have the best experience, I will meet you upon arrival to provide information about the cabin and neighborhood.
One week before your stay, I will start communication on your upcoming trip. As your dedicated host and concierge, I am available to answer any questions or recommendations in the area so this can truly be a memorable trip.
I have a guest book in each cabin with detailed information of the cabin, area, hikes, restaurants and activities. We can also arrange to meet at the cabin so I can better understand your needs, goals, and desires, allowing me to tailor your experience to perfection!
My top priority is to provide you with a comfortable cabin, stocked with just about everything you'll need, while you explore all that Vallecito Lake and the surrounding areas have to offer.
We hope this will be your perfect mountain getaway!
