This was a wonderful cabin to stay at for our family trip! It felt like staying at a home that was really cared for, like staying at a friend's home. The creek was delightful! We wished we could have stayed longer!

We loved our stay. Having the creek, trails and a grassy area to play on property was great for the kids (and adults). We will miss the sights and sounds, but hope to come back soon.

This was a perfect cabin in the mountains. The creek that ran in front of the property was blissful. However, the description says up to 8 people. We originally booked with 4 people then add 2 more for part of our stay. We were added an extra charge for the 2 people for part of their stay. I could see the extra charge if we went over the 8 people, but we didn’t. Other than that the cabin was very cozy and charming.

The cabin was perfect size for our group(5) and could accommodate more. The stream running in-front of the cabin makes lets you know you are in the mountains. The calming cascading water revitalizes your soul!Only a minor issue was the exiting instruction could be more clearly stated.

Excellent location. Plenty of space for four adults. The kitchen had plenty of pots and pans for cooking and baking. The hiking trail out the back was beautiful. Close to good ski options.

Great Mountain cabin

We enjoyed our stay here. The cabin was clean and well furnished. The location was great. We especially enjoyed the creek than runs directly in front of the cabin.

This property was the best ever. Absolutely everything you could think to need it was there. The wood stove worked fabulously. Hikes available outside the door. Perfect patio on creek. Yes it is right by hwy up to mt Evens but the traffic not at all bothersome. Lovely porch to enjoy the creek when it was raining. Left the cabin only to go to try the Hot Springs but otherwise didn’t want to leave. Thank you Randy for sharing. Wonderful experience for flatlanders from Kansas! Everything and more than we hoped for

The host is very helpful and answered questions promptly. The cabin was amazing. It was very close to town and not too far from Denver but once on the property you would think you were in the country. It is well stocked with all you need. We loved the creek, the sitting areas outside, the family friendly layout inside.Highly recommend!
