not all is what you see
just be aware that the place you are booking is in the back and down stairs. there is no walk way to get to the back side of the cabin where you will stay. owner was very rude. watched us trying to get into the cabin and never offered assistance nor did she correct that we were to be around back and down a slope. very dissappointed.

Cute cheap place
Nice little place to stay! Easy to get to and pretty property. Kitchen could be a little better
First a warning - this is not a good place for seniors. I'm 81 and able bodied. My wife is 77 and very unstable walking. Partly our fault that we didn't check on the ease of access. Other than that the place is wonderful and we did our best to enoy the ambience!
This cabin was perfect for what we needed. It was quiet, clean, and had beautiful views.
Five stars. We recommend highly.

Cute if awkward property with noisy upstairs neighbors
I stayed in the Castle Den for a few days this February with my dog, and it was nice...except that my dog kept hearing people walking around and occasionally talking upstairs, and it drove the dog nuts. This caused a bit of stress.
I don't know if the people upstairs were particularly noisy, or if the floor/ceiling is poorly insulated, but it was pretty obvious that we weren't alone. It wasn't loud enough to really bother me, but with a dog that wanted to bark at every noise...it was a problem. I didn't know it would be such a problem, so next time I'll be sure to rent a place where we are renting the entire building. I hope the occasional barks didn't bother the neighbors.
As to the flat itself: It's cute and comfortable, but...a bit awkward? I wanted nothing more but to relax on a couch or comfy chair while gazing at the view and/or fireplace, but the couch was placed with its back against the only window, so there wasn't an easy way to just kick back and contemplate nature. And the dining table was between the house and the fireplace, so you couldn't watch the fire either.
The bedroom I stayed in was very comfortable, though, and if you're planning to go off skiing during the day instead of sitting around inside like I did, it would be fine. And the yard was great for exploring with my dog.

Great Place
It is a nice cabin up in the mountains. Beautiful area and far enough away from Denver to get away but close enough if you want to have fun there.
