Great Little Alma Cabin

Fun little spot in the high Colorado mountains. Hosts were ready to go and made the process easy, with not overburden some checkout requirements.

Mountains!

We were able to go on two memorable jeep trips. Both trails began in Alma. They couldn't have been closer! The cabin was beautiful and very comfortable.

Rustic exterior luxurious interior

The cabin was simply perfect and i loved being able to walk to Otto's Cartyard, the Al-Mart, Mojo's coffee, and down to the river. Nearby hikes with friends who came to visit were fabulous. The McCabes are great hosts and extremely responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Jan McCabe

My husband, Mark, and I are transplants from Kansas City, Mo. I grew up in Kansas City and Mark moved to KC from Buffalo, NY. We moved here permanently after completing the remodel of our house, which took 5 1/2 years! Mark and I are both retired, me from the financial services industry and Mark from photography. We love to hike and go camping with our dog Murphy! In the summer I work for the Mosquito Range Heritage Initiative, leading their Rare Alpine Plant project. I also like to quilt and Mark is a project guy! In fact, Mark built our little house in Alma with some help along the way! We hope that you enjoy your stay!

Why they chose this property

We have always loved Colorado and through the years came skiing and camping with our kids. Then in 2006 life long friends bought a house in Fairplay. When we came to visit, we fell in love with Park County. We bought our home sight unseen in 2007, thinking we would do a fix and flip. When we saw the views, we knew this was the place for us. We moved into our home 5 1/2 yrs later and have no plans to leave any time soon. Park County has so much to offer and the people of Alma and Fairplay are so friendly, we can't think of a better place to live. In 2014, we bought a house in Alma (37 S Oak) thinking we would do a remodel and rent it. However, once we got into it, we realized there was no saving it; so down it came. We had plans drawn up and started from scratch.
