Welcome to our freshly remodeled cabin nestled into 40 beautiful acres of Aspen, Balsam, and Spruce forest. Unplug from technology and enjoy wandering our 2 miles of trails, curl up with a book on the oversized furniture, or play a game with the family at the kitchen table. Cap off the evening with a bonfire and some steaks on the grill! Remodeled in 2021!
