About this property

Lazy Me ~ A Magical Creek-front Cabin with Hot Tub & Private Woods

Welcome to Lazy-Me!
Take it extra easy at our cozy, 2 bed- 1 bath cabin- sitting right next to Clear Creek, nestled perfectly in the tranquil Rocky Mountains.
Our magical abode sits in the midst of a beautiful aspen & pine grove, with the relaxing hum of the creek and fresh air to soothe you.
Soak under the stars in our 4 person hot tub! Cook meals with your loved ones in our fully stocked kitchen. Sleep in, take your time and absorb the restfulness.

Only a few minutes drive to miles of Jeep trails. Hikes are endless, paved or cross country in the national forest lands (Arapaho, and Roosevelt). Property is located in the spring fed head waters of Clear Creek. It is always flowing, icy in winter, and amazing trout fishing in spring and summer. You are only 35 minutes to Eldora Ski Resort, without having to get on I-70. Blackhawk casinos are only 5 miles from the front door! Black hawk has adult fun with casino culture, great dining options, top-rated spas, and more.

Our road is maintained and plowed during the winter season, but 4WD or AWD is recommended from November-May. Without it can turn into and adventure, so please be aware and well equipped to travel in the mountain winters during your visit, if traveling between November-May.

This is a great place for the family to explore, or just find a place to sit and relax. 2 acres of yard, woods and trails, perfect for finding a place by the creek to sit and enjoy the fresh mountain air.

We are friendly to smokers but ONLY outside. Be very careful with smoking, as our mountain neighborhood is highly susceptible to wildfire. Therefore we ask for no campfires on the property- please enjoy the pellet stove inside, but absolutely no outside burning. Do not drop smoking debris on the ground!
We are pet friendly and charge a reasonable deposit for your 4 legged family to join you, but we request that guests must pick up after your pets poo.

This is our Colorado passion project that we have been remodeling & updating over the recent years, and we do our best to make it a fabulous experience for our guests! Your enjoyment is important to us, and we are delighted to be able to share our home with other families, friends, travelers, and all folks to enjoy- it is a pleasure to share it with others, so thank you for taking great care of our home!

This place is amazing! It's a beautiful home that sits on a couple of acres of pure beauty. The creek is just steps from the back porch and you can hear the stream from inside the house. It is so peaceful there and so easy to disconnect from every day stresses. The hottub is an added bonus. The host is great and very welcoming. We will definitely stay here again.

What a charming place to stay. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful and darling. My only recommendation would be for a different dining set. The chairs were quite uncomfortable and felt like they would break at any time and the table was difficult for 4 people to sit at to eat a meal together. Other than that, no complaints.

My wife and I loved staying at this cabin. We had a great relaxing weekend and this place had all that we needed for the weekend. It’s close enough to town for some food and shopping but far enough away that you feel secluded from the world. Highly recommend this cabin for a getaway weekend!

We had a great stay at "Lazy Me". After spending the days hiking, fishing, and sight seeing it was great to return to the cozy, hidden cabin for rest and relaxation. The hot tub felt great after a hard day of exercise.

Great stay!

I had an absolute blast at the Lazy Me cabin. The property was peaceful and secluded, and after a winter day of exploring it was such a treat to hang out in the hot tub. Would definitely recommend this stay for anyone looking to disconnect and recharge! Looking forward to another stay here in the future. Thank you!
