About this property

Off-grid Masterpiece Cabin W/ Breathtaking View

A spectacular off-grid masterpiece, the 'Isabelle' located on historic gold mining acreage. It is inspired by the 19th century gold miner shacks and hoist houses built across Colorado's gold belt. This home represents the latest in the modern off-grid lifestyle. Stunning vaulted styling with large glass windows open to expansive decks overlooking the mountains and opening to Continental Divide views. 2 bedrooms plus a loft providing accommodation up 6 people. The primary loft in the main cabin accommodates a king size bed with Million dollar views. Private guest loft accommodate 2 queen size bed with impressive mountain views. Being at the Isabelle will leave you impressed with the sounds of silence and the amount of stars that can fill the night sky.
NO AIR CONDITIONING- this house is built at 9,450' and the temperature is average mostly in the mid 70F during the day.
Easy access with 2WD most of the year. But a 4-Wheel Drive or All Wheel Drive vehicle or one with snow tires is helpful to get to this home in the winter when snow is presence. 10min to Blackhawk (best casinos and buffets in Colorado), 15m to Idaho Spring ( Hot springs, grocery, restaurants) 30 min to Golden ( Red Rock Amphitheater, Coors Brewery Tour) and 45 to Denver and 1hr to Denver International Airport. Short drive to the I-70 corridor & world class skiing. Abundant Wildlife. Excellent cell service.

Mountain view is amazing. Host was very responsive. Like most other reviews of this property, a high clearance vehicle is best for reaching the cabin and recommend checking in during daylight. Highly recommend and would most definitely stay again.

Stay was wonderful! Beautiful views! Recommend driving the first time there in the daylight, just to get familiar with the roads. Steps to master loft are steep. No laundry wasn’t the biggest downfall. But the sunset was a site to see! And very secluded, loved the privacy! Great stay!

Beautiful property

We had a wonderful vacation. Few things for future renters. There is no washer and dryer. Bring adequate clothing as you cannot wash clothes. There is not ice maker so if your wanting ice you will need to buy some.The property is beautiful and the view is amazing.

Beautiful home in the mountains

4x4 vehicle required and mentioned a lot for a reason. Beautiful cabin in the mountains. Minutes away from Idaho springs co, Blackhawk casinos, and just a Beautiful drive to the slopes of winterpark. The stairs to the loft bedrooms are really steep and felt could be dangerous for children or people like me who midnight snack half asleep.

The view was AMAZING! Nothing better than watching the sun set over the mountains. The actual cabin was rather small and chopped up into 2 separate areas. The master bed is up a steep ladder in the loft. The kitchen/living room were very small. Very little counter space. Had a “bar island” as the only eating area but only had 2 stools. Only had a small couch to sit on so all 4 of us couldn’t even hang out in the living room together. 1 very thin blanket to use on the couch, so bring your own if you want to feel cozy. The other 2 bedrooms were in a separate area that’s only connected via the “breezeway.” Not much decor on any of the walls. No washer/Dryer so be prepared to have enough clothes to last your whole visit. Would definitely recommend a 4x4/AWD vehicle. We were there in the summer and it rained a lot so the dirt road was somewhat washed away and steep to pull up to the cabin.
Steep driveway up to cabin, L side is “main” cabin and R side is bedroom only.
looking down from master loft. steep ladder
Main balcony, only 2 chairs and 1 table.
view to other side of cabin balcony. no seating

Off grid living with modern amenities

Photos of the view from the cabin do not capture the true beauty of the in-person view! The location of this place is perfect! Very private and quiet. We saw eagles circling the sky, moose in the pastures, and deer in the backyard. We aren't avid outdoors people (the wifi worked great, the place was heated, the water was treated and hot, and we cooked our own meals, so we had no reason to venture out), but the views of the snowcapped mountains tempted us so we made our way over to St Mary's Glacier. We were ill prepared for the hike and didn't make it far, but the view was breathtaking! The entire stay was excellent; off grid living with modern amenities. Travel tip: the last 1.6 miles of road up to the cabin is unpaved and the driveway is very steep and rocky. There was no snow or rain during our stay but we felt much better knowing we chose a 4x4 vehicle for the drive.

This place does have stunning views and is a very creative build. While it was great for my husband and I, I do want to warn that there are very steep ladders to the two bedrooms that have King beds. This doesn't seem like the right place for an older couple or kids. There is not a King bed downstairs nor are the two queen beds up in the loft. Just FYI. At the time of my listing, it said there was a king bed and show a pic of the room downstairs. The bathroom was small but didi great- there are no washcloths or hairdryer- but plenty of towels! It did list laundry service but there was no washing machine- must have been a mistake because when I inquired about it, the owner was a litter perplexed that it said that. Checking in was a little confusing, you enter through a "vestibule" where we hung our coats- so don't leave anything valuable there because those doors don't lock. The locks are on the door to the left where the kitchen and TV and loft are and the other side is another room that locks. There is no dishwasher- which is fine too- but the place has very limited space. I know it sleeps 6 but I don't know how you would fit 6 people at the table because there are only two chairs and there is a love seat sofa. Internet was pretty good so my husband could work and the fire pit on the deck was a nice touch. The area is great- close to many of the small cities and easy to get to the grocery store in Idaho Springs. Good stay.

Peace and solitude

Loved the views and the size was perfect for us as a couple without even having to go into the other unit. The host was easy to reach and responsive to any questions. Great jumping off point for Golden Gate Canyon State Park, Red Rocks, Golden, or Brainard Recreation Area where we saw moose. Also a great spot for night sky viewing. Kitchen had everything we needed but stop at a grocery store for supplies on your way as the house isn’t walking distance to food, but being in the quiet and amongst nature was the goal of the trip.

Great Pick Near Central City

My wife went here on our Honeymoon and it was great. We were definitely snowed in the first three days, which we didn't expect in May, but the cabin was roomy enough for the two of us. The location is beautiful and the cabin itself is laid out pretty well. What you see is what you get for the most part. The cabin looks secluded but is fairly close to the main road. There was no washer/dryer as the host removed the unit, which we didn't expect. The couch was partially broken and the TV remote didn't want to work very consistently. Not a complaint, but it's worth noting that this place could comfortably sleep 7 of people share a bed, but there isn't a lot of indoor seating at all. The cabinet space was also fairly limited, so if you had a big group, it may be a struggle to store very much food easily. Great cabin overall though, I'd still rent again just for my wife and I.

Perfect Views

The views from the house are perfect! I wouldn't recommend bringing children because the setup of the house is tricky to navigate (steps ladder-like stairs). You definitely need a 4WD/AWD vehicle year-round to navigate the areas around the property if you plan to explore.

Memorial Day Weekend 2025

The cabin is rurally located in the mountains above Idaho Springs and Central City. We had easy access to both towns, attended a concert at Red Rocks and made day trips to Golden Gate State Park, Nederland, Boulder, Golden and Estes Park. If you don’t want to travel, the property itself is fun to explore with old mine sites both up the mountain and down the road. If you’re looking for remote, quiet and beautiful views, this is a great location.A few things to note. The cabin doesn’t have a washer/dryer, dishwasher, tea kettle or hairdryer. Also, there are no mixing bowls, storage containers, or large drinking glasses. If there are more than two people staying, I’d also recommend bringing plates, silverware and extra dish towels (only one provided). If you’re a person who uses a washcloth, you’ll want to bring your own, as none are provided.The king bed is in a loft that’s accessible by ladder like steps. If you have balance or mobility concerns, or are a person who gets up frequently at night, this might not be the best place for you. My husband and I found the king bed collapsed on one side and lumpy. We moved to the queen bed on the ground floor. Also, there are no extra blankets, so if you run cold, I’d bring an extra blanket.There is a loveseat in the living room and no other seating in the space other than the two chairs at the dining table. The loveseat was broken with an exposed bolt and the arm detaching. Loved the location, but needs some TLC.
