Ice cold streams run through timbered mountains. Find your quiet space and enjoy the peace, clean air, dark, starry nights. Leave the mundane things of life behind and discover yourself, your own thoughts and feelings. The back yard is the main attraction for us at Mountain Cabin Retreat. The grass surrounding the creek, the bridge where we sat and dangled our feet in the cold mountain stream, imagining family gatherings around the campfire. The first step through the front door said, “Welcome home”. During our many years here, we have done a lot of remodeling. The quality workmanship is evident the moment you step through the entry door. The wood stove mesmerizes, lighting and warming the hardwood floor. The coved log ceiling beams, called vigas, reflect centuries old architecture. The quiet speaks of reflection on today, yesterday, and tomorrow, on life and purpose. The dark skies look back through millenniums of time and displays an eternity of celestial bodies. Yes, we warmly invite you to come and experience the alluring appeal of Mountain Cabin Retreat.
The 1400 sq. ft. make for a spacious 2-bedroom house. All rooms are large. The cozy, comfy living room has the wood stove with plenty of firewood. TV’s with ROKU, DVD and VCR players are in the living room and the Buffalo Room. The Buffalo Room also serves as an additional sleeping area. There is also the opportunity for wildlife viewing from the Buffalo Room and the dining room. Many times we have seen elk, coyote, birds and more. The hummingbirds are a real attraction at the feeders on the deck.
Special note: bedroom 2 is accessed through master bedroom. Both have queen beds.
The Buffalo Room is on the opposite side of the house, making it quite private from the master bedroom and bedroom 2, and has a sofa bed, futon and a single bed.
No smoking is allowed in the house. Designated outside smoking areas are provided. The last 1 mile to the house is a gravel road that is well maintained by the county road department.
This place is amazing. It's got everything. I put most of the cooking supplies into use. The wood accents and special touches like 3 - 4 bird books right next to the sliding glass door to the deck and very nice sheets, and awesome shower and bathroom were great! If there was one thing I would add it would be another room with a toilet. My dad has Alzheimers and my mom - his primary caregiver - recently had a heart attack. I wanted them to have a memorable possibly last anniversary together. I was able to help my mom with my dad's nightly wanderings because of the attached bedroom to theirs.
This was our second time staying at this home. It is perfect for us - everything we could need or want is provided. The hosts are wonderful people who work hard to make us feel welcome. Thank you again for a wonderful time -extra bonus this year was all the beautiful snow!!
The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed to cook and clean. We had ample firewood and communication with the host was 5 stars. Would stay again 10/10
The place is much roomer than the pictures. I love the layout of the place. The car port was nice since it snow on Saturday. My group really enjoy our stay. The host was always there when we needed them. I would definitely stay here again!
This property was close to the ski area. It was easy to find and very clean and welcoming. Instructions were easy to follow. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will be back!
We booked last minute and everything went easy and smooth. Loved the place- especially the wood burning stove. House is well stocked and we really loved the welcome lemon cake. What a sweet gesture. Will definitely come again.
2nd stay this summer and we loved it. Great property. MariLu and Jim are super hosts. Great Wi-Fi - streaming worked great so we could keep up with Astros. Our dog enjoyed fenced area for dogs to move around and daily trips to the creek behind the house. Very relaxing vacation. We love the new comfortable couch. Great kitchen! Loved the deck and carport. If your lucky, MariLu and Jim might bring you some homemade salsa. Already planning for next summer.
Would do again
Look out the sack window I see a beautiful creek. And a snow covered mountain ridge. My kind of country.
This Florida family spent Christmas at the Adobe Mountain Retreat and had a wonderful time. The mountains and snow are so very different (and beautiful) from our norm. The cabin was well appointed and met our needs. The host did a great job communicating with us and when the power went out (briefly), he drove to the cabin to check on us. We had a wonderful holiday experience in Santa Fe and Taos from this central location in the mountains.
Went with my daughter and her 2 Boston Terriers. They have a really nice place by the creek with hammocks, a fire pit and it’s secluded so you can enjoy the sound of the creek and relax. Hosts were great, always checking with us and made us feel welcomed. There is a strawberry patch there and we were allowed to pick them and the host even brought us over some salsa she made which was super nice of her. Will definitely stay there again if I ever come back that way.
