For your convenience and security, the front door of the house is equipped with a smart lock to provide seamless access to the home.

During your stay, you will have full access to the house, except for one of the garages, which may occasionally be used by the cleaning staff or the owners. Rest assured that your privacy will not be disturbed in any way during your stay.

***IMPORTANT***
Please be advised that this home is located on a rural road on an elevated property. All guests must have 4-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicles are required to access the home, especially in the winter and during rough weather conditions. We are not responsible for vehicles getting stuck or having issues accessing the property. Thanks for your understanding!

During Summer - It is uncommon for mountain homes to have AC. The home does not have AC but has various windows that can be opened with ceiling fans in the bedrooms and living areas.

During Winter - Winter snowfall can vary during the winter months. For guests staying from late October through late April, AN AWD OR 4WD VEHICLE IS REQUIRED. Most winter storms will provide about 5" of snow at one time. Our driveway is steep and can be problematic for cars not properly equipped to handle snow. The neighborhood roads and driveway are regularly plowed as needed during the winter months.

During icy, wet, or slippery weather conditions, please use extra caution when walking on the exterior stairs, patio deck, and on walkways. We are not responsible for any injuries or accidents resulting from slips or falls on the property. However, we will do our best to keep the driveway, stairs, and home entrances cleared and safe for all of our guests.

Morning light spills through tall evergreens as you sip coffee in the sunroom, watching the mist drift across South Park Valley. At night, stars scatter across the sky above your secluded deck while the fireplace glows inside. This private three-story log chalet offers the perfect balance of solitude and connection, surrounded by 20 acres of pine forest and mountain views.

The space
Inside, the warm knotty pine interior and cathedral ceilings create a welcoming retreat after days of adventure. The main floor opens into a bright living area with a plush sectional, wood-burning fireplace, and 65-inch smart TV. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame alpine views, while the adjacent sunroom invites quiet mornings or late-night reading. A fully equipped kitchen with gas stove, espresso machine, refrigerator, dishwasher, and dining for eleven ensures every meal feels easy and communal.

Sleeping arrangements
Each of the four bedrooms offers a private sense of comfort. Two main-level king rooms share a full bathroom with a tub-shower combo. Upstairs, the loft master suite features a king bed plus a twin bed, vaulted ceilings, mountain views, a private ensuite bath, and a workspace with an extra monitor and lamp. The lower-level bunk room includes twin-over-twin and twin-over-queen bunks, ideal for families or groups, with a third full bathroom nearby. In total, the home accommodates up to 13 guests with 3 king beds, 4 single beds, and 1 queen bed.

Outdoor living
Step outside to the expansive log deck for fresh mountain air and long views across the Rockies. A BBQ grill and picnic seating make it easy to enjoy alfresco meals from May to October. Though outdoor fires aren’t permitted, the deck remains a peaceful place to spot wildlife or stargaze in the crisp high-country air.

Amenities and extras
You’ll find thoughtful details throughout, including washer and dryer, heating, ceiling fan, and Starlink Wi-Fi. Bathrooms are stocked with essentials, and the kitchen provides cooking basics and coffee. Safety features include exterior security cameras, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, a fire extinguisher, and a first aid kit. The cabin is pet-friendly, with a smart lock for self check-in and free parking on site.

Neighborhood
Set just nine minutes from Fairplay and about forty minutes from Breckenridge, the cabin is surrounded by trails, hot springs, and ski areas. Whether you’re hiking Reinecker Ridge, exploring local shops, or returning from a day on the slopes, this peaceful hillside retreat welcomes you home to mountain quiet, warm firelight, and endless stars.

For guests staying from late October through late April, we recommend driving an AWD or 4WD vehicle. Most winter storms will provide about 5" of snow at one time. Our driveway is steep and can be problematic for cars not properly equipped to handle snow. The neighborhood roads and driveway are regularly plowed as needed during the winter months.

Winter Family Vacation

This was perfect. It was quite & away from everything but a short drive to town. We all enjoyed the sledding, snowball fight and just walking around in the snow. We saw a moose and tracks of other wildlife. The house was clean and well stocked. We look forward to making another family vacation here.

Quad trip

The house is great. We had a good time on the area trails. The mosquitoes make the deck unusable after 5 Just a couple small maintenance items like the main floor tub drains slow and the water pressure gets weak during busy times
