This newly renovated four bedroom, two bath house is nestled at the base of Mount Princeton. This getaway is secluded on two plus wooded acres and sits at an elevation of approximately 8900 feet. As you approach the cabin, you'll notice an amazing 1000+ square foot deck. Perfect for relaxing, grilling and enjoying the spectacular views. Or maybe dining al fresco with a quiet cup of coffee as the sun rises. There is a stone deck below that has an outdoor gas fire pit and is partially covered to get away from the mountain elements. You can enjoy outdoor grilling on our 4 burner gas grill and eat under the stars with outdoor seating for 10 at two tables.
While here, you'll enjoy true Colorado cabin living. It is the best of both worlds, as you'll be privately secluded in the forest, but yet close to many amazing locations and attractions. The cabin is surrounded by a national forest in the back and a state park in the front. The home is a five minute drive to Buena Vista, CO and twenty minute drive to Salida, CO. We are three mile North of the famous Mount Princeton Hot Springs and the amazing Chalk Cliffs. Several river rafting companies are within a ten minute drive on the Arkansas River. It is a forty minute drive to world class skiing at Monarch Mountain, forty-five minute drive to Ski Cooper and just over an hour to Cooper Mountain.
The main level of the home features a spacious living room complete with a wood burning fire place and a 55" smart TV. The dining room table seats 8 and an additional 4 guests can be seated at the kitchen bar. The kitchen appliances are all stainless steel, with a glass top stove, granite counter tops and a large farm house sink. The full bathroom is complete with a shower and bathtub.

Family side by side excursion. Mountain exploration. 2 adults 2 14-year-old boys. Family side by side adventure. The house was clean and fully stocked. Beautiful log home in a beautiful neighborhood. Very friendly host.
We spent Christmas with our family at this cabin and it was a wonderful stay. Location is amazing and has great views. Even saw some moose wandering the neighborhood while out walking.
Amazing house. We spent a day snowmobiling and a day in the Mt Princeton Hot Springs. The house was close to both. Very very clean and a fully stocked kitchen. Highly recommend this property.
We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was clean and well appointed. The location was great - close to town, but in a quiet and beautiful forest. Some additional outside seating would have been nice. Overall, great value for Buena Vista!
I’ve stayed at this property several times now over the past few years and it never disappoints. The house is always clean, well maintained and well stocked. Lots of peace and quiet in this neighborhood and a great base for many adventures.
We loved our stay at the cabin! What a cozy fun place! The cabin had everything we needed for cooking, sleeping, and relaxing! We’ll definitely be back!!
A wonderful home to stay in and from which to get to all the amazing hiking trails. Main living, dining and kitchen all very well appointed and relaxing. Easy to get to BV, Salina, many fourteeners. Also has a huge deck which was a great place to hang out. All in all, a home not to be missed!
Fantastic experience! The cabin had everything we needed, beds were comfortable and it was layed out perfectly. This cabin was perfect for our family to all be together and enjoy the hot springs and each other while ringing in the new year! Highly recommend!
This lovely quiet “clean” mountain cabin was a perfect weekend getaway. We greatly enjoyed the views of Mount Princeton from the patio by day and a crackling fire by night. Along with, Eddie was so gracious to quickly respond when I was needing help a time or two. ;) Thanks again Eddie! Your place comes highly recommended!
Unfortunate incident but handled really well, great home!
As we were heading to the cabin, the owner notified of an issue with the home from the previous guest. He explained how it would be handled, when people were showing up, and communicated the problem very well. The problem was resolved and the owner was very kind. The house itself is gorgeous, nice and secluded with a great view. Fully stocked and very cozy interior. Love this place!!
Great view of Mt Princeton. Didn’t see any wildlife from the cabin but no big deal. Road in and out was smooth.
Had most everything we needed. Owner was very good at responding to my questions. I would recommend this property to future vacationers.
The kitchen was outfitted to the nines! We cooked every day and had everything we needed!! With no window coverings on the East facing, great room wall, breakfast was a little blinding, but sll in all, great stay! Recommend highly!
We had a great weekend stay here. My husband especially loved the large deck. The view of the stars at night is so impressive. We would highly recommend this lovely spot. :-)
