TELL ME ABOUT THIS HOME & ITS HISTORY:
Dog-friendly, tranquil retreat nestled in the forest with Monte Cristo Creek views of the back decks!
This peaceful creekside getaway has comfortable mountain furnishings. This cabin was built in 2013 by its owners and children with a deep love of nature.

The Meditation Area:
The Angel guarding the Monte Cristo Creek & property has deep significance to the owners and is in loving memory of their loved one. Many guests enjoy this meditation/reflection area.

The owners are thrilled to welcome you to their home and happy to share Riffel's River Retreat, hoping it brings joy and peace to you and yours. Pay attention to the original artwork and sewing crafts personally created by the owner for you to enjoy - including the fabulous end tables in the main living room.

The artwork, linens, drapes, and woodwork add elegance to this handcrafted Colorado Rockies Home. Spend quiet evenings relaxing by the fire or cozying up with the family for a movie night. Meander outside (with your 4-legged pal, perhaps) and cross your private forest bridge to stroll along Monte Cristo Creek. This secluded home offers 1.5 acres of room to roam. Enjoy the fresh mountain air, roast marshmallows over the fire pit (check for Summit County fire ban/restrictions!), or cook a meal on the gas grill. This beautifully designed mountain retreat is ready-made for your next family vacation or group getaway!

Breckenridge Ski Trip
Great property. We had to cut our stay one day short due to power loss on 12 Jan resulting in no water or electricity. Main power pole was sheared off in high winds during blizzard and damage was not reparable within the time we had remaining. Other than that very comfortable and in a great location. Property management staff was responsive.

Fabulous Spot
We loved the house! It was far enough away to feel secluded, but still close to things. The kids had a wonderful time playing outside.

Beautiful home and property!
We had a great time! Love that all the adults had their own bedroom with king sized beds. The home and property are beautiful! My only suggestion would be to get a water softener system as the water is very hard and smells like iron. We would definitely stay again.

Drinking Water Reeked of Minerals
This vrbo was a very nice home with a very nice location, which for us was spoiled, because it was on a well-based water system that reeked of strong minerals in spite of an installed water filter system. The water could not be drunk, and no one wanted to shower in it. It was a significant disappointment for our family. This stay was meant to celebrate the first pregnancy of our oldest daughter. We called the vrbo's 800 number on the first evening, got a recording, left a message, and never got a call back during the entire 2-1/2 day stay.

Great Getaway
The property is very nice with many amenities. The location is scenic and quiet! The town of Breckenridge is a short 6 mile ride.
