About this property

Colorado custom log home situated on 20 isolated acres on the edge of the Rocky Mountain National Park and the North St. Vrain Creek.

With Mount Meeker towering overhead there is convenient access to trails leading up to waterfalls, high mountain lakes and fields of wildflowers. Hiking downstream one can fish for wild native trout through a protected 10 mile canyon. Otherwise sit beside the roaring creek and read, write or paint amongst the deer, elk, ouzel and fluttering aspen.

Walk back through the woods to the lodge and join the folks who never left the cozy Tulakivi fireplace surrounded by ancient Ingelman Spruce and vaulted ceiling gazing out onto the forest and fourteen thousand foot Mt. Meeker. Enjoy barbeque on the sun-bathed deck or quietly around the candlelit table while the kids rampage downstairs on the bunks, play ping-pong, watch movies, play in the tipi, play basketball, toss horseshoes or jump on the trampoline.

Fall asleep to the sound of tumbling waters and a canopy of stars.

Awaken to the pink hues of dawn cascading down the sleeping Mountain.

After several days of wilderness experience, drive 20 minutes into the resort town of Estes Park and enjoy the full fare of entertainment. Drive further over the highest continuous road in the country which traverses the Continental Divide and drops down into the Colorado River basin and Grand Lake. Enjoy all that the Rockies have to offer on the Colorado River and National Park trails. Return home to our lodge in Wild Basin by way of Mary's Lake, Baldpate Inn, Eagle Plume's Cabin and St. Malo's Chapel on the Rock. Settle back into this cozy log hideaway and enjoy the perfect Rocky Mountain holiday you'll want to relive.

Perfect Location to visit RMNP and surrounding area

This was an extended family get together in the RMNP area. None of us had visited this area before, but several have been in other areas of the Colorado Rockies. The stay was absolutely perfect as was the Vrbo home. We will never forget our visit and the great time had by all.

“A LITTLE PIECE Of HEAVEN”

We’d never been to Colorado so we had to rely on reviews written from previous guests in helping us decide where to vacation. I read review after review and never heard anyone say anything short of amazing! So we took a leap of faith and ventured out to see this quaint little cabin and it’s wonderful owners! Our stay was so spectacular! We’re from the big city of Dallas so everything this place had to offer was like a “little piece of heaven”! The amazingly crisp fresh air and the peacefulness were bonuses attached to all the thoughtfulness that went into the entire stay while we were at Jonathan and Maggie’s Cabin! You just don’t get this kind of wonderful experience living in a big city. So yes we had a fabulous vacation and thank you Jonathan and Maggie for EVERYTHING and we will see you again real soon!! P.S. didn’t go into the fine details about the cabin itself like so many others did so we encourage you to read every review because there’s sooo much more to learn about this great place!

Secluded, Quiet and Relaxing

Stayed 12 wonderful days, home has everything to make you feel at home, was well kept and had land to explore. The stream behind the house was calming to hear and watch. Looking forward to coming back! Thanks Jonathan!
