Fishing base

As advertised. One thought would be to replace the gasket / seal around the wood stove door in order to better control the air to the stove so it could be choked down to the point it could burn all night. Other than that, great spot!

The Artist’s Cabin

We loved our stay at the Artist’s Cabin. It is not a fancy place by any means but the description and photos on VRBO make that clear. The stand-out feature of this cabin is the setting. Absolutely breathtaking, right on the Million Dollar Highway. We were comfortable there and had everything we needed. We definitely plan to return!

Artist Cabin Serene Adventure

The Artist Cabin welcomed us to the middle of a mountain range just outside of the small town of Silverton, CO. My brother and I absolutely enjoyed the peace and comfort the cabin provided to us. Check in was a breeze and so was check out. We enjoyed all of the amenities of the cabin and would definitely recommend for any group wanting to isolate themselves in the beautiful mountains!

Why they chose this property

This area is perhaps one of the most beautiful high mountain experiences in the USA. With easy access by ski, foot, ORV, to spectacular Alpine scenery and rich in American Mining history.

What makes this property unique

You will like staying here if you like being off on your own, able to cook your own meals, and close to some really great attractions. The cabin is quiet, without distractions, relaxing, located in a million dollar setting all by yourself. It is "off the grid" and not always quite like home. A great place to unplug from technology and to hang out and spend some really fun times with your family or friends.
