About this property

Highland Homestead- Direct River Access, Mountain Views, Historic Cabin

Welcome to Highland Homestead! This original homestead cabin, built in 1910, has been renovated from top to bottom, with specific attention placed on detail and decor to preserve its period quaintness.

You step back in time as you enter the vaulted great room with all the character, western artwork and Native Americans collectibles of a mountain log cabin. This room also provides a queen size sleeper sofa, love seat, TV, period antiques, desk and WiFi for those who need to work remotely. A/C keeps this cabin cool and comfortable. A fully equipped kitchen, with vintage refrigerator and Hoosier cabinet, makes meal prep simple and convenient. The bedroom offers a queen bed with a serene, quaking aspen view. A clawfoot tub (with shower attachment) is another nod to the early 1900's history of this special log cabin. Please note: this original homestead cabin has lower than average ceilings.
An expansive front porch reveals spectacular mountain views in every direction. Add the aspen and pine trees, birds and wildlife with the sound of the river and you have pure heaven! A picnic area includes a fire pit, seating, picnic table and gas grill with the same stunning views.
