This cabin is on private property. We share the forest with all of God Creatures.
The Cabin is 100 years old. We have done major upgrades. The Solitude is not for everyone it gets really dark. But my oh my the Stars come out at night. The animals great and small might pay a visit. You will enjoy the decks. The covered swing in the yard.
BBQ on deck. Fully equipped Kitchen. Gas fire pit in the yard. We are not the Marriot or Hyatt so please don't expect that. We are in Gods Country however and you cant put a price on that.
Definitely one of a kind Lake Front on Beautiful Lake Vallecito. With 2 bedrooms 1.5 bathrooms it can comfortably sleep 6! Shower no Tub.
Very comfortable downstairs Master bedroom with private bathroom. We added a sleep number bed for your enjoyment.
Great upstairs bedroom with fiber optic star gazing system, and balcony with gorgeous views of the lake and forest!

$100.00 cleaning fee is added to every reservation.
Happiness Disclosure: This Cabin and location is not for everyone! We completely understand that.

Beautiful lake side cabin

Beautiful cabin by the lake with hot tub. Host was so nice and checked in on us. Left us kayaks and other great equipment to use on the lake. We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. Appreciated everything our host provided. This was a family trip so the rest of our family was spread out all over the lake but everything easy to get to and not real far. Couldn’t ask for a better trip!

We greatly enjoyed being right on the lake! The property has a beautifully maintained outdoor area with plenty of places to sit and enjoy the view. Lots of lake toys included with the rental and fishing was excellent during our stay. Also, can't beat sitting in the hot tub at night and enjoying the stars!

Cabin on the lake

The property is perfect for a quiet, secluded getaway in the mountains, with terrific views of the lake and surrounding mountains (and a short walk down a hill to the shire). It’s in an absolutely gorgeous setting with lots of wildlife and things to do. We parked our car when we arrived and didn’t get back into it for days: fishing, hiking, mountain biking, birding, paddle boating from the cabin. The deck has gorgeous views for your meals or just relaxing. Bring a hummingbird feeder if you enjoy birds. Connie was very helpful and responsive to our inquiries.

Beautiful location right on Lake Vallacito with amazing views of surrounding mountains! Sunsets were spectacular with photo ops galore. Host, Connie, was awesome. Loved sitting outside on the glider watching our mini Aussie have the time of his life. Cabin is rustic and cozy, well equipped with everything we needed.

Perfect to take our dog to run and play in the lake multiple times a day. this cabin is perfect for 4 adults or a family of 4.

A rustic and eclectic cabin with a magical outdoor space that we spent nearly all our time. Such close access to the reservoir and within 20 minutes of some really great hiking. We, and especially our two dogs, loved our stay. Thank you!

Why they chose this property

After camping around Lake Vallecito for many years, and staring at this historical cabin next to Graham Creek Campground. I knew that place could be my heaven here on earth. Back when it was just a bunk house for the ranch hands working the cattle ranch where Lake Vallecito exists today. In the years that followed rooms were added, including a kitchen. You can still look around and see some original walls and décor. The property is a half-acre however completely surround by BLM and National Forests . The most spectecular view of the Needle Mountains and the Lake.

What makes this property unique

We offer a paddle boat, two new kayaks, hot tub, canoe. Includes life jackets.Hot Tub
