Beautiful property with plenty to do in the area! Check in process was easy, house stayed warm even with just “ambient” heating, the bedrooms were spacious and beds were comfy. Washer and dryer were a welcomed amenity and the kitchen is well-stocked with cooking equipment, utensils, some spices, a regular coffee maker and a Keurig, full size fridge/freezer. Hosts were very communicative and helpful! Cabin is within walking distance to a private pond AND Golden Gate State Park. Be aware - there is an extra cost incurred when taking the trash to the transfer station, it is 4/bag.

Amazing Mountain Retreat
The place was incredibly clean, Sarah was very friendly and always answered my questions within the hour. The property and amenities were fantastic! We had more than enough activities to choose from, ranging from walking the trails close to the house or driving to the nearby towns to dink around. The best part of our stay was being able to see a moose and its baby walk right through the backyard! I would absolutely recommend and rebook this vrbo!

Family Vacay to CO 2024!
Had an absolute blast in CO! Our stay was amazing, and 10/10 recommend. We had everything we possibly could have needed, and more during our stay. The only thing I would suggest is stopping for groceries on the way up. It's a 30-45 min drive back to town, so don't forget anything!

Cute & cozy Cabin!
We loved our stay at Nic & Sarah's cabin! Pictures are accurate, scenery is amazing, and the house is well stocked! We definitely took advantage of the lake and trails nearby. The host was extremely responsive and there's a very detailed Welcome Book in the cabin. Awesome place for some rest and relaxation!
