“Lookout Lodge” is a wonderful place to unwind, relax, and recharge. The floor to ceiling windows in the great room, paired with its open concept, creates a comfortable, connected, and luxurious feel. Outfitted with custom log furniture, beautiful hardwood floors and ceilings, and stunning views, you will quickly discover why we call this special cabin “Lookout Lodge”.

Built in 2020, the cabin is practically brand new and has modern amenities. With stainless steel kitchen appliances, a beautiful gas fireplace, wireless internet, a smart lock for contactless entry and exit, and installed Amazon Firestick 4K for streaming, you are sure to feel right at home.

The beds have new, fresh linens and the bathroom is stocked with new, fresh towels. The kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, a drip coffee maker, a mini Keurig coffee maker, an electric tea kettle, microwave, toaster, crockpot, handheld blender, and all your basic cooking needs. Our kitchen table comfortably seats 6 and we have an abundance of glassware, silverware, and stemware.

In the family room, you can kick up your feet in comfy chairs or the cozy loveseat. The family room has a flat screen TV and DVD player with movies supplied. Additionally, we provide cards, card games, coloring items and cribbage.

Our finished upper level, with 2 bedrooms and the bathroom, is just over 1000 sq. ft. and the unfinished entry level is just under 1000 sq. ft. There is a king size bed and queen size bed on the main living level and the ground floor has an additional king size bed. The entry level offers space for relaxation and play with air hockey, an activity table and 4 chairs, games, and a handcrafted practice putting green with golf balls and putters.

While you can savor gorgeous views from almost all windows, getting outside to soak in the scenery is easy with access to the spacious deck from the ground or main living area. The deck is equipped with a picnic table, benches, 6 Adirondack chairs and 2 kid size Adirondacks. The deck is also accessible from the primary bedroom. This cabin perches on just over an acre of land so you have space to throw frisbees, run, play, and enjoy the fresh mountain air.

Whether you are working remotely, vacationing for an extended time, or searching for a beautiful change of scenery, Lookout Lodge is ideal for that needed recharge the mountain lifestyle has to offer. So, get off the beaten path and let the solitude and grandeur of the surroundings inspire you!

When staying at our cabin, you are close to many fun activities and opportunities for adventures including: hiking, fishing (3 Gold Medal rivers), skiing, horseback riding, mountain biking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, hunting (national forest), and excellent photo opps!

    My wife and I stayed at the Lookout Lodge- A Rocky Mountain Getaway for one week from April 13 to April 20, 2024. Lookout Lodge is a great place to relax and enjoy the panoramic views of the mountains. Total peace and serenity. If you are looking for a place to escape from it all, this location is it.

    Communication was great regarding how to get into the cabin and the information I received or if I needed anything. The cabin was perfect from the kitchen to the bedrooms. Loved that they had card games and puzzles for the family to play. It's great to spend time with each other, but then being on electronics can be a distraction. They had everything we needed in the cabin, from pots, pans, utensils, to bathroom supplies like shampoo, a first aid kit, and much more. This is the first time that I stayed that they provided a lot of comforts for you, which was great if you forgot something, they had it for you. The scenery is beautiful and peaceful during the stay, and I will be staying again sometime in the future.

    Beautiful house in a very quiet location. Everything was as advertised. Even though it is somewhat away from any significant communities and parks/activities (which we knew going in), it was easily balanced by the gorgeous surroundings and sereneness. Awesome sunsets were just the cherry on top. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to stay there.

    Cabin was very nice and had everything we possibly need for our stay. Everything was clean and also had a few things we forgot to bring which was nice. Everyone loved the deck looking over the area along with mule deer coming by every day for the kids to watch. Thanks for making our vacation perfect.

    Lookout Lodge is very beautiful cabin. If you are looking for a remote setting, this would be the place. It is a bit further out than expected and what the listing provided. Everything you needed for accommodations was there. However, it quite uncomfortable for sleeping and with lack of windows and curtains for the afternoon sun, it was extremely hot.

    This property is so lovely. Lots of extra convenient items were included, like coffee, spices and some toiletries. They also included games and puzzles. There was a badger living right off that back deck that we saw around dusk both evenings we stayed. We also saw quite a few deer. I also recommend making a stop at the ghost town in Fairplay. The photos do not do the view justice. Overall, wonderful stay and a beautiful property.
