Black Hawk, Colorado
Alice's Acres is located on the Front Range only 1-1/2 hrs from DIA (Denver International Airport), 1 hr from Boulder and downtown Denver. It is in the midst of Roosevelt National Forest on 4 wooded acres (elevation 8,700 ft). The closest mountain town is funky Nederland, 20 minutes away where you can stock up on food in the supermarket and visit local stores and restaurants. At Alice's Acres you have the best of both worlds: easy access to cities and the peace of mountain living, whether you plan a romantic get-away or a family vacation.
On the first floor is a new kitchen, large master bedroom with new handmade aspen bed and organic mattress (king size), next to it is a full bathroom. The living room has a woodburning stove, TV, radio, lots of videos and a piano (try it but it hasn't been tuned lately), mud room and the half bathroom are adjacent. From the veranda one has a view of the high mountains. On the deck at the south side you can enjoy soaking in the sun, even in the winter.
Upstairs is a bedroom with 2 twin beds, lots of children's books and games, another large bedroom with a pullout couch and more books in English and German. This latter room is also used as an office and has 4 large sky lights.
There is much original artwork in the house.
Below this house is a little one-room cabin that has bunk beds in it. Children love it because it's away from the adults. However, it's close enough for the adults to see and hear what goes on. Only available during summer months.
We had a wonderful stay at the cabin, relaxing and comfortable. The host was very responsive about questions and the property itself was in excellent condition and had everything we needed. Highly recommended.
The place was great for our family! Quiet and peaceful. You will need an AWD or 4X4 SUV as the roads are steep and can get washed out if heavy rain. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Highly recommend.
This cabin in the mountains was a perfect stay for our family of 4. Our boys had their own space upstairs and we had a large room w/full bath and a King-sized bed. We loved the wood-burning stove, cooking meals, playing games, and watching some classic movies. We didn't have a phone signal (AT&T), but the wifi in the cabin was good enough for us to stream movies, make Facetime calls, etc. The cabin is located about 20 minutes from Nederland and 30 minutes to Eldora Mountain - a beautiful drive. It should be known that this property is not really easy to get to if you don' t have the right type of vehicle. We were in an all wheel drive SUV and had a few issues when it was snowing on our first night coming in.
This is the perfect spot for an authentic mountain getaway experience! Cozy family cabin, easy access and great location. Could not be more pleased by the place and the experience.
We had an excellent experience at this property. The property was fully stocked and the love and attention given to the home was evident. Great location to explore Ned and the Front Range. We had a fantastic time unplugging and appreciating the mountains. Thanks for a great experience!
So beautiful to wake up to fresh mountain air every morning. Log cabin was roomy for our family of four. Enjoyed the fireplace on cool nights. Such a peaceful retreat.
This cabin was just what we were looking for: a peaceful place in the mountains. Once we adjusted our schedule to allow for drive time in the mountains, we had some great day trips to Boulder and Colorado Springs .
Loved the property. Driveway was awful, not conducive to a traveling family pulling a Uhaul trailer AT ALL. Definitely needs work. But cabin itself was gorgeous.
Nice and cozy, peaceful, charming cabin
The cabin is great. Clean and plenty of room for a small family. Comfortable and quiet. The nearest town is about a 15 minute drive and the roads are a little rough immediately around the cabin, but we were fine in our 2wd SUV. Cell service for us was hit or miss at the cabin, but the WIFI in the cabin was sufficient to access what we needed. Enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back in the future.
