Escape from the city and step into the Shire when you book your stay at this curated, Hobbit-inspired cabin in Black Hawk! This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom vacation rental brings The Lord of the Rings to life with its warm exterior and ornate windows — courtesy of a local architect. Several decks and a cozy courtyard make taking in the Colorado wilderness effortless and intimate, while the gas stove heater adds that rustic touch. Stargaze with the telescope or keep a lookout for wildlife before bed.
