About this property

Cabin In The Pines - Walk to Sargents Wildlife Area

This is the place to be if you love peace, solitude, and the outdoors. This cabin is located just 5 minutes from downtown Chama in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by tall ponderosa pines. Enjoy the outdoors whether it is relaxing on the wrap-around covered deck or recreating in the Sargents Wildlife Area. There is a fireplace, outdoor fire pit, horsehoes, and grill for guests to enjoy as well. Wildlife are often spotted around the property, including deer, turkeys, elk and the occasional bear.

We are available by phone if the guest needs help and a short drive away in case of emergency.

The cabin is located in a very quiet neighborhood just barely outside of downtown. Guests feel like they are in the country but only a minute away from restaurants and amenities. The neighborhood is in the middle of a large ponderosa pine forest, which keeps it very cool in the summer.

Guests will have access to all amenities located on the property.

This 1100 square foot cabin is the perfect getaway for those looking for a quiet retreat in the mountains. The inside of the cabin is small but has everything guests need and the fully wrapped around deck with patio furniture is a great place to enjoy the wonderful mountain weather that we get in Chama. Or stay inside and get a fire going in the wood burning stove. There is enough parking for those pulling trailers to haul horses, ATV's, or snowmobiles. Guests are also close enough to either walk, bike, or horseback ride into Sargents without having to drive as well.

It was secluded but still close to attractions and restaurants. Very quiet area, full of wildlife you can watch right from the porches. We plan to visit again as soon as we can.

Beautiful cabin in wooded area, but still close to downtown and train depot. Owners are very responsive and dealt with minor issue that came up, quickly and well. Kitchen is well stocked with the basics for cooking, which is great because there really are few dining options in Chama.

This property is a gem! The home was well kept and clean. We lived on the wrap around porch. We enjoyed watching the deer graze as we drank our coffee! I highly recommend this rental and we would definitely stay here again!

Hidden Gem in the mountains

Cabin in the Pines was a wonderful place to stay. Chama is a hidden gem. The house had everything you might need and was very quiet. The wraparound porch was a perfect touch. I loved watching all the birds, deer, bear(s), and bobcat. The Phippens were great to work with.

Beautiful hideaway in the woods!

The location of the cabin is unparalleled! It’s so close to the wildlife protection area you can walk there. The cabin itself is so cute and cozy, with really comfortable beds. We wished there was a little more of a living room/lounge area as the one sofa was a little cramped, but beyond that it was a really nice stay! The wrap around porch is gorgeous and although we were there on a snowy day, would have otherwise loved to enjoy the outdoor living space. Austin was super communicative and helped ensure an easy check in process.

We had the most wonderful stay at this charming VRBO in Chama! The house was absolutely perfect—beautifully decorated, cozy, and full of thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. The backyard area was such a lovely space to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.What truly made our stay exceptional, though, was the hospitality of the owners. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. You can really tell they care about their guests and take great pride in their property.We’re so grateful for the experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Chama.

Perfect!

Just the right size for my mom, my dog and me. The cabin was just as described and true to the pictures. It was also a perfect quiet area behind town, with plenty of roaming space for my pup to explore. It’s not a fenced area, so that was the only downside. Otherwise, the amenities were all we needed and a great place to escape!

Cabin stay

Overall the property was very nice. Good location, nice and spacious and plenty of room for the dogs to run around outside. The wrap around porch was great for relaxing outside in the afternoon. Inside had everything you’d need. Very cute layout and amenities, plenty of blankets and fans to adjust temp and comfort level. The only thing I will say is that we did not find it to be very close to much river access, and we ended up driving out each day to a spot we normally fish at, but this wasn’t a problem at all, just not exactly close to river access like advertised. We would definitly stay here again!
