TimberStar Lodge is your perfect home base to relax, recharge, and make lasting memories in the heart of Colorado! Just 10 minutes from the town of Florissant, tucked away on 4 acres on a quiet cul-de-sac, you're close to town but feel worlds away.

Built in 2022, this roomy 2,000 sq ft single-level home is the epitome of comfort and connection. With an open-concept design, it’s perfect for joyful gatherings with loved ones or enjoying the blissful solitude with your significantother.

Savor nature while relaxing on your expansive deck, complete with a hot tub, BBQ, dining table with umbrella, and a private front yard fire pit—ideal for cozy nights under the brilliant stars.

Inside, the spacious, fully-equipped kitchen invites culinary adventures, while two relaxing living rooms, three beautiful bedrooms, a versatile game room/bedroom with Ms.Pac-Man arcade, and two luxurious baths, all with soaring 9' ceilings ensure there’s room for everyone to spread out.

You decide the temperature with the thermostat and air conditioning remote controls. Ceiling and room fans help keep everyone comfortable.

Just FYI, as hosts/owners, we have over 300 5-star reviews on Another Big Booking Site!

Though TimberStar Lodge was thoughtfully designed with our grandkids in mind—featuring plenty of toys, books, movies, and a thrilling outdoor rope swing—we haven’t forgotten the magic of a mountain retreat for two. This lodge is the perfect escape for couples looking to reconnect and rekindle. The primary suite, with its heavenly king-sized log bed, sets the stage for exciting nights, while the luxurious bath invites couples to indulge in a truly unforgettable experience. Step into the oversized shower, where you can share intimate moments in complete serenity. Or take a nature bath together by meandering through the forest of pines and aspens and breathing the fresh, Rocky Mountain air. Need to stay connected We have fast, free Wi-fi!

Located in the “Banana Belt” of the Colorado Rockies, Florissant enjoys more moderate temperatures than some of our other mountain towns. We rarely get more than a few inches of snow in the winter and temps tend to hover in the 70’s and 80’s in the summer, although Mother Nature has been known to throw us an occasional curve ball! So, we have extra heaters and blankets in the chilly months and wall-mounted air conditioning in the warmer months. You get to control your comfort! And don't forget, the South Platte river is just minutes away for a cool float in the (4) tubes we provide. Want to ski Just 1 hr. 20 minutes from Breckenridge Ski Resort! We have a plowing service in the snowy months.

Florissant Fossil Beds is just a 15-minute drive yet far enough away from light pollution to provide dark, star-filled skies. From the park, it is possible to see the Milky Way, other galaxies, star clusters, nebulae, planets, comets, and much more.
In 2021, Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument received certification as an International Dark Sky Park from the International Dark Sky Association (IDSA).

Please note: There is absolutely no smoking of any kind inside the house and no fires of any kind allowed, which means no outdoor candles, bonfires, campfires or fireworks. We do have a propane fire pit you can use year round. Smoking is allowed on the back deck or on the front porch but please be extra responsible and use the provided ashtray. We are in a high fire danger zone.

Due to the owner's pet allergies, we do not allow pets at TimberStar Lodge. Please inquire before bringing a service animal. We also do not use scented cleaning products.

Our driveway is rather steep. If rain or snow is expected, please park in the upper parking area, even if you have 4-wheel drive. If you park in the lower parking and you get stuck, you will be responsible for getting yourself out. We do everything we can to keep the path clear, but it's Colorado.

    Great cabin for our family! Host was wonderful- left all the notes and guest amenities that we might need to enjoy our week away. Loved the spacious cabin, hammock and porch to stargaze. Saw a deer and fox while we were there. Enjoyed cooking breakfast and snacks there, and traveled the hour to Colorado Springs to explore.

    Wonderful! A peaceful, well-appointed space that provides a restful and nature filled experience. The beds and family areas are comfortable, with plenty of room. The kitchen has everything needed for cooking and the dining room is spacious. The hot tub is safely located on the deck with an excellent view of the night sky. Excellent host!

    Everything was spot on and comfortable for our family Christmas getaway in the mountains. The host was amazing and communication was easy. We loved the location, nice holiday touches and yes…the hot tub. The constant surveillance took a little getting use to but we understood the safety aspect.

    An incredible stay out in the mountains! We felt completely secluded from the bustling cities with only an hour drive to Colorado Springs. Truly a gorgeous property and very well maintained. Fully stocked kitchen wear and spices really helped us feel right at home, we can't wait to comeback and stay again!

    This house is huge! You could easily have 15 people in this house and have plenty of room. The home was clean and neat. The hot tub was a lifesaver after spending the day hiking. The host were fabulous. This place has it all! We want to go back and take our friends. Watching a herd of elk, less than a mile from the house, was so cool. I would come back here in a heartbeat.

    The property was absolutely beautiful, exactly as listed. Fully stocked for cooking for the family while there. My kids loved seeing the deer up close on the property. The location was central to all of the activities we had planned. Viola was hands down the best host I’ve had through VRBO. She was super helpful and communicative. We’ll definitely be back!

    We have family a mile away from this house, so this was the perfect location to celebrate two birthdays and Independence Day with them. The children’s toys and amenities were very much appreciated! The kitchen was well laid out and had plenty of cooking utensils and appliances to make almost anything. A reasonable selection of spices, sugar, coffee, tea, and some cooking oil. We bought catsup and mustard for hotdogs, so left those for the next guests too. Our host responded quickly when we had a question, even on the holiday. Overall, an excellent time was had by all.

The host, Viola, was very friendly and communicative and made sure that we lacked nothing. We will stay here again if we take another trip to that area!

    Upon arriving at our cabin, it was a wonderful location with beautiful scenery in the area and easy to locate and access. Four-wheel-drive is recommended during the winter season as we did receive snow and it is a steep grade for the entrance. They even had fresh flowers on the main dining room table for us that my girls and wife noticed right away and made us feel special. All the amenities were as needed, including snow, shovels, and any other gear to clear snow off the vehicles. Hot tub worked out great and was in a nice location on the deck, easy accessible. Cabin had plenty of rooms and was very very clean and the self climate control system maintained a great atmosphere for us during our stay. Will definitely recommend to families that want to get out to wonder and explore the area near the Florissant/Divide Colorado region. Viola was an excellent host and was very easy to communicate with during our stay.
