I would highly recommend this place. Spacious home with beautiful views. You will need an AWD or 4 wheel drive vehicle to access this home! If you have any issues with anxiety or panic attacks, the drive up the mountain, is not for you! BUT, if you can get up there, it will be well worth it!
The cabin was lovely and impeccably clean! It has all the amenities we could have wanted and the view is amazing. It's absolutely true that you MUST have AWD or 4WD in order to make it up the mountain. We have a Honda CRV AWD and it worked well for us. Definitely put it in L instead of D. There was always plenty of hot water for relaxing showers after a hike and the bed was comfy. The humming birds were constantly around the feeder on the patio, as well... Which made for fun entertainment. Overall, our stay was perfect.
First let me say when they tell you that you need 4wd or awd to get to the cabin, they are not kidding! But once you get there… wow!!!! Home was clean and had a nice littler welcome package of local beer and chips. All our time spent at the house was on the deck looking at the amazing views during the day and stars at night. It was so peaceful. Made friends with the resident hummingbirds! Beds were very comfortable as well.
The cabin and view were both beautiful. However, the road to get to it was anything but good. I’ve been on atv trails that weren’t this bad. It was hard on any vehicle even if it is 4 wheel drive. My main disappointment came with the property manager. Listed on the amenities is an iron and ironing board. There wasn’t an iron to be found. I emailed the manager asking about it and was told he would check and get back with me. I never heard back. So, would he have gotten back if it was something more important than an iron?? I don’t know.

The View is AMAZING!! Do NOT travel in the dark your first time trying to find it. It took us over an hour and the directions aren't clear. You have to have an all wheel drive because the road up is very hairy, many switch backs. I would list that high up in the description. Once you get there you won't want to leave, so get supplies ahead of time. It is a beautiful cabin. We would suggest putting shades on the windows upstairs b/c once the sun comes up it is very bright in there. I would find a better cleaning company. The master upstairs comforter had what looked like human fluids on it so needless to say we didn't use it. Under the couch is nasty and I don't think has ever been vacuumed. The kitchen has all the necessities so that is a plus. It has heated floors which is very nice. Overall a beautiful cabin and I would highly recommend it.
Loved the property and the view. Got a little nervous on the way up to the cabin. Glad we drove the truck.
This cabin was awesome! We arrived on Sunday afternoon to Colorado, visiting from New Mexico. While on our drive, the property manager called to inform us about how to reach the cabin because it is on a small mountain road. Since it had snowed recently, he wanted to ensure that we had a capable vehicle. He also let us know where some extra towels were and that we could check in early if we desired. Over the week we had a phenomenal time. Snowshoeing out the back yard, breathtaking views of the sunrise, and an equipped house for everything we needed. Great experience with great customer service.
This property was on a mountain and surrounded by snow. It was a perfect location to see the mountains and snow that you look forward to when you visit Colorado. If you are looking for an authentic Colorado experience you NEED to book this house. From the primary bedroom you get a picturesque view of snow capped mountains that just make you smile when you are looking out the window from the bathroom or the bed. Our next trip to Colorado we will be staying at this property again. It was worth every penny!
I live in Denver and this was the PERFECT weekend getaway. Quick, scenic drive from the city (a little rough at the end - so make sure you take it slow and have very good tires!). The house was even more beautiful than the photos if that is possible! Very quiet and private area. Our highlight (after the perfect view, large deck, comfortable beds, and fire place) was the pebble ice machine! Such a great touch. Can't wait to come back.
There's nothing like waking up to these mountain views. Loved the house, the thoughtful touches (snacks and beverages) and the comfortable furnishings. Please make sure you have the right vehicle before you book!!! We had AWD, but would have done ever better with a vehicle that also rode high. The road is extremely rough with deep ruts and potholes. Definitely worth the trouble if you can get there, though! Our hosts were easy to reach and very helpful. Loved our stay!
This home was exactly as advertised! The rustic cabin vibe with expansive windows and French doors that open onto the large deck allowed the beauty of the mountains to flow into the home. The views seen from every room and deck were outrageous! Although the house was only a couple miles from Idaho Springs, it felt as if we were nestled way up in the mountains. The evenings were chilly, so we enjoyed having the fireplace! As we had escaped the city craziness for a few days, we found the nearby trails and area perfect for some outdoor therapy! The home provided everything we needed…the kitchen was fully stocked for preparing meals. There was even a fun ice maker that made the perfect ice cube?. We really appreciated how clean and well cared for the home is and found it to be very comfortable! There was lots of attention to detail as was seen with all the bathroom toiletries, kitchen items, spices, oil, baggies etc that were provided. We did reach out to the guest contact prior to arrival with questions and did receive a very quick response! That was really terrific! The owners even left a note welcoming us, as well as some local brew and chips. Very nice touch! We highly recommend and will be back!
We truly enjoyed our stay. It was very beautiful, peaceful and relaxing. The location is amazing! We would love to stay again and bring the family!!
The property was nice. Good floor plan and incredible mountain views. Could use some “homey” touches. Road up mountain and driveway need some upgrading.
This home was perfect for our family getaway. We fit two families without any problems. It was extremely peaceful and quiet. We loved how far up in the mountains we felt even though we were only a short miles from Idaho Springs. The owners were extremely responsive and were great to work with. The property and home are extremely well taken care of and the house had all the essential items anyone would need. We would definitely come back again and spend more time here in the future!
