The full size Central Bathroom located in the hallway offers a standard vanity and toilet with a bathtub/shower combo so you can choose to start the day with a quick and refreshing rinse or you can sink in for a long, hot soak after all the activities a day in the Colorado Rocky Mountains may afford.

At the end of the hallway you will find the Bunk Bedroom and Ensuite Half Bathroom with toilet and small vanity.

Everything was perfect. The cabin was clean and in good repair. There was everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The view from the porch is incredible. One of the best rentals we have ever stayed at. Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.
House was as advertised. It had incredible views. It was the best provisioned STR house I have ever stayed at. The mgmt company was thorough, responsive and competent. Hope to see you back again!
Most beautiful cabin secluded in the woods; definitely a winter wonderland experience. We welcomed Christmas sitting in the hot tub on deck under the stars which was quite the experience. From the Ping Pong table to the fireplace, it is perfect. This cozy cabin has it all. Just a short drive to Breckinridge. Will definitely come back and stay here again! Thank you for such a memorable dream vacation.
Beautiful cabin! Huge windows provided an amazing view. Very clean and cozy, as advertised. It’s equipped with everything you need. Communication was professional and excellent. I would definitely recommend it! The only downside was that there was only one tv but that was not a big deal, everything else was perfect!
We stayed at this cabin with our family of two adults and three kids, 4/4/7. The views are incredible from the house, the deck, and especially the hot tub. At night, we had a 360 degree view of the stars, like being in a planetarium, which was a huge highlight. The main floor of the house was clean and tidy with comfortable sheets and beds. It did live small, as the loft area is really only for sleeping... it would have felt tight with more people, but was comfortable for us. The kitchen was clean and well stocked. This is a new rental, and the management company was still working out some kinks. The basement, with the ping pong table, is sold as more livable space but is a very unfinished basement that hadn't been swept/vacuumed. There were no garbage bins provided to put our trash upon checkout. There were no batteries in the remote for the fireplace. We couldn't find the chemicals for the hot tub, which was nerve-wracking because the paperwork is very stern that if anything goes wrong with the hot tub, there is a $600 fee. I received many automated texts from the rental company with the invitation to text back with any questions, but when I did text at check-on on a Friday, I didn't hear back from anyone until Monday morning. No deal breakers, but small inconveniences that took this stay from five stars to four. Overall, it's in a great location, close to town but still private, and you can't beat those views. I'm sure that they will iron out the bumps with time.
