Quaint House in the Woods hiking trails, pet friendly and lots of privacy
Come relax in this three bedroom and 2 bath home. Located at the end of the road in a beautiful grove of pines and only minutes from the Mount Elbert trail head. This home has all the modern conveniences while offering a back country life style. Home is only 10 minutes to Twin Lakes and 25 minutes to Leadville. The breathtaking natural beauty of Colorado's largest glacial lakes, reflecting some of the nation's highest peaks, makes Twin Lakes one of the world's most scenic places. A fifteen-minute drive from Leadville, or hour-long journey over Independence Pass from Aspen, will take travelers to a peaceful world of pristine mountain landscapes. The Historic Village of Twin Lakes, once busy as a mountain transportation hub between Aspen and Leadville during the gold rush days, was described in 1885 as "the most charming summer mountain resort in Colorado." Very little has changed in Twin Lakes since then. In the event of inclement weather (ex: heavy snow, etc.) we will not be able to help with any vehicle issues. We recommend using 4-wheel and All Wheel drive vehicles to get to the property during these times. This location will meet all your needs.<>Lastly, we ask that you respect our highly valued water. Please be conscious of not watering outside, the length of your showers, how often you do laundry,etc. We thank you in advance for your efforts on this.Lake county license number 2025-077

The property was exactly what we needed for a quick trip to Colorado. Kids enjoyed the ping pong table. Definitely need a four wheel drive when it snows. We happened to come in when a winter storm was going on and for sure needed four wheel drive. The view was beautiful after the snow.
Our 4 night stay was only 10 minutes long. The house had been left unlocked (not pre-arranged) and there were cobwebs and spiders within the house. Toilets were not working when we arrived. We chose to find somewhere else to stay for the remainder of our trip but ended up having to pay for the entire week because the host didn't feel they were at fault. We would not recommend this place or this host to anyone.

John was not given a full refund from VRBO for his stay once Client chose not to stay there.He was incredibly mad by this and continued to write me a negative review.
Furnace was not functioning properly, spent a lot of time trying to trouble shoot it and communicate with the owner. Was cool, needed to rely on the gas fireplace to heat the whole place.

Spent $9000 and replacing the furnace so this is no longer an issue
Our group really enjoyed our stay here. We were able to easily access Leadville, Ski Cooper and the local reservoirs and it's apart of a great little neighborhood community. Quiet spot, and the grill and fireplace were a nice plus.
We were pleasantly surprised to find more sleeping areas than listed. Our older kids had a blast in the lower level and everyone enjoyed the deck and natural lighting from the large windows upstairs. The cabin was nestled in the woods but close to anything we needed. Hosts were very quick to respond. I would absolutely stay again!
The property was really nice, and my friends and I loved staying here. We were aiming to hike Mt Elbert and it was a great place to launch off from, and recover afterwards!
I loved the ping pong table!
However, there is no WiFi and when we tried to call to the hosts we could not reach them on any of the three numbers provided. We also struggled with carrying out the trash - we had no problem with packing it out but didn't want to drive two hours with trash in the car and there is very little information on where to actually take it and how to purchase the yellow trash bags Leadville requires for throwing it away.
