📋 GOOD TO KNOW

🐾 Wildlife & Pets: This is genuine wild Colorado. Moose, black bear, and deer regularly visit the property. Dogs are warmly welcome and must be kept on leash at all times for their safety. Neighbor dogs may occasionally pass through.

🧊 Roads & Conditions: We're in remote mountain Colorado. Icy roads, steps, and seasonal hazards are real. Come prepared with appropriate footwear and all-weather driving capability.

♨️ Hot Tub Care: The hot tub is professionally cleaned between every stay. To protect the next guests (and avoid a $250 drain/refill fee), please shower before use and keep oils, deodorants, and lotions out of the water.

🐻 Trash & Bears: All trash — including pet waste bags — must be consolidated into one sealed bag and secured in the green Bearracuda metal bin outside. Loose or separate bags are not permitted. This protects the wildlife and keeps the property pristine.

🚭 Smoke, Vape & Drug Free: This is a 100% smoke-free, vape-free, and drug-free property. We appreciate your respect for the space and future guests.

About the host

Host profile image
We didn’t buy and change this property for a rental business, we made it the way we enjoyed the mountains of the past. It’s a love letter to the Colorado we knew as kids: wild, quiet, and completely unhurried. Before the roller coasters and bungee jumps and condos and boutique chain shops moved in, the Rockies had a way of making you feel genuinely small and genuinely free. We share this cabin because that feeling shouldn’t disappear. Come wander five acres of aspen and pine, sleep under an impossible sky, and leave the noise behind, even if just for a weekend

Why they chose this property

Remote and peaceful with whispering aspen leaves, wildflowers and a mountain stream

What makes this property unique

1. Your own private mountain stream with bridges = most cabins are “near” water; this one has it running through the property with actual crossings to explore.
2. Views of two named 14ers and a 13er from the deck = Mt. Bross and Mt Quandary and Mt. Silverheels are iconic peaks, and calling them out by name builds credibility and excitement.
3. Free ski shuttle less than a mile away — the Summit Express to Breck, Keystone, and Frisco is a rare convenience at this price point and seclusion level.
4. 5 fully explorable acres = not just a yard or courtyard of concrete, but a genuine private landscape of aspen and pine to hike, snowshoe, and wander.
5. Steam shower plus hot tub=most rentals offer one or the other or neither; having both is a legitimate luxury differentiator.
6. Wildlife as a feature, not a warning = moose, bear, and deer on the property is extraordinary to most guests and provides the “real Colorado” experience.
7. Gear already included = sleds, snowshoes, bikes, fishing gear, and disc golf mean guests can be spontaneous without hauling equipment.
8. Wood-burning fireplace = increasingly rare in rentals due to regulations; it’s authentic and atmospheric in a way gas simply isn’t.
9. Outdoor games and hangout features = hummingbirds, ski chair and bench, tire swing, hammock, cornhole, and horseshoes create a resort-like outdoor social experience.
10. 16 miles to Breckenridge with true seclusion each morning and night to escape the chaos of tourists and traffic and paid parking….the combination of proximity to a world-class ski town and genuine remoteness is the hardest balance to find in Colorado mountain rentals.
