Very cute cabin with lots of sleeping rooms for a group of friends! Close to steamboat but also far enough away to have more isolation/privacy. The hosts are great too - they communicate well and make things easy. Highly recommend.

Great cabin 30 min. from steamboat

Great cabin, clean, has everything you need. Enjoy being able to stay outside the business of town, but close enough to go into dinner/activities. Tons of amazing trails between the cabin and town.

My friends and I loved our stay in the Boondocker! It's so cozy and such a fun getaway from the hustle and bustle. We brought our crafts up and enjoyed a lot of lounge time in the super cute living room, drinking local coffee (what a cute touch!) We also headed to Steamboat for a day in town and went to soak in Strawberry Hot Springs before coming back for dinner. I love how close it is to Steamboat while still being a lovely, remote location and the recommendations in the guidebook were really helpful. I can't wait to tell my friends with kids about the super adorable kids loft so they can come enjoy a stay as well.

Great stay away from the crowds. Beautiful wilderness all around. Fall colors were the star of the show. Property is nostalgic with cool old buildings around. Nice to take a dip in the hot tub while it was raining and the rainbows showed up when the sun came through. We got a ton of cool pics from around the property. The cabin has a great, rustic feel. The smell of pinewood when we walked in the door. Nice kitchen and comfy sofas. Cooked our meals there, even had steaks on the grill. The loft is really cool too with room for 6. Would recommend if you like an out of town stay. This is close to the highway but that didn't bother us much.

It was a very cute property and a good location. The hot tub was very nice and we enjoyed using the pool table. The property itself was very comfortable, but there is discomfort with how many mice there were. There is a very wide open field, but many of the mice would run through the walls and we could hear them squeaking at night. Trying to cook in the kitchen we could see them through the wood slats. The curtains in the main room downstairs, the lights from cars at night would show through really bright, and it was hard for one of the guests to fall asleep at night. Over all a cute place to stay, but the help with keeping the mice away and darker window coverings would really be beneficial to the property.

About the host

Hosted by Audrey Howes

Host profile image
Hi! We’re the HowesFam4, a family of four who grew up exploring these mountains and still can’t get enough of them. Rabbit Ears Basecamp is our way of sharing the trails, lakes, and peaceful moments we love with others. We hope you’ll find the same magic here that keeps us coming back.

Why they chose this property

This area has always felt like home. When we had the chance to create something lasting here, we knew we wanted to build a place for families, friends, and outdoor lovers to reconnect with nature and each other. The Boondocker Cabin was one of the first pieces of that vision. It’s now part of a small collection of unique stays at Rabbit Ears Basecamp, where the wide-open skies and quiet trails invite you to slow down and stay wild.

What makes this property unique

The Boondocker Cabin is part of Rabbit Ears Basecamp, a small, family-run property set on 20 private acres at the base of Rabbit Ears Pass. We offer a true mountain experience without giving up comfort or connection. You’ll find wide-open skies, aspen-covered hills, and stargazing nights, but also Wi-Fi, a gas fireplace, TV, and a cozy place to cook a meal or read a book.

Kids love the Little Tracks Loft, a toy-filled nook for our littlest guests, and the shared Hitchin’ Post game room with a hot tub, pool table, and space to hang out after a day outside. Whether you're here to ride, hike, fish, bike, run, or just breathe a little deeper, this is a place to slow down and stay wild. It feels like your own quiet corner of Colorado, just 30 minutes from Steamboat Springs.
