This rustic but renovated "1930 Jim Bridger Cabin" directly on Coal Creek with creek views and mountain views honors the Western America explorer Jim Bridger who was a mountain man, trapper, Army scout, and wilderness guide who explored and trapped in the Western United States in the first half of the 19th century. He was known as Old Gabe in his later years. Bridger often presented the Yellowstone region as a place of mystery and magic. For example, Bridger once described a petrified forest in Yellowstone that was home to “petrified birds that sang petrified songs.”

Cabin was clean
Cabin was small, which we knew. Our only concern was the location, right on a busy intersection with loud traffic. Otherwise it was a good 2 day stay.

The cabin was clean. It was difficult for me to walk in as I had mobility access issues and the floors were slightly slanted. Otherwise, a good place.

Cute, clean, and secluded cabin
Could not have asked for a better stay. Small cabin but perfect size for my boyfriend and I. Also a perfect distance from Boulder, Denver, and ski resort while still being remote. Will definitely stay again if ever in CO and recommend to couples!
