Our experience at The Happy Place Cabin was perfect for our family of six (plus our dog). The kids loved having the lofts to retreat to at the end of the day. The kitchen and its set up were great. I loved having a second table in the living area. We used it as our game table. The property is well maintained. My kids had never been to Colorado. They are ready to return and have requested to stay in the same cabin.

This clean cabin had everything I could dream of and more. It was well-organized. Little signs everywhere showed how to use the washer and dryer, TV, lights, and more. The kitchen was loaded with handy items: crock pots, toasters, waffle maker, and plenty of cookware and utensils. Basic supplies included salt and pepper, spices, ice, cooking oil, paper towels, dish and laundry soap, and hygiene items. It felt like the owner was very thoughtful about guests' needs. The ground floor bedroom and two lofts worked well for my family. Just be sure to let people with bad knees or poor balance stay on the ground floor as the loft stairs are steep. The location at the end of the subdivision made our stay feel private, yet it was close enough to Creede, Wolf Creek Pass, and the San Luis Valley to be the perfect base camp for our adventures. Thank you for a great family reunion!

Nice, quiet location next to the river, however, the house could use some updates. Not at all baby friendly with many hazardous outlets and rigged electrical. Lofts are physically difficult to climb to if you’re older and have nobility issues. There was also a very strong smell of lacquer/polyurethane which took a day or two to dissipate after keeping the house open and ventilated.

We had such a great time at the cabin! This was our second time to stay here. It had everything we needed. The surroundings are so beautiful and peaceful. We highly recommend staying here!

We loved the space, and the fact that we had room to unwind after skiing all day. The house was comfortable and the heat sources were great. The kids enjoyed playing with the sleds and watching the deer each day. We cooked meals and had breakfast before leaving to ski. The kids also loved the games that were furnished in the home. This home is comfortable and clean and great for two families. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay at Happy cabin. The only issue we had was dealing with the microwave. It kept tripping the breaker, so we just decided to heat milk and water for hot cocoa on the stove. We were able to warm things in the oven and get around the not being able to use the microwave. My only other recommendation is to bring paper goods, so you’re not washing a lot of dishes. There is not a dishwasher and for us it was fine.

Loved the outside yard. Since there is such little grass, we REALLY appreciated the nice grass yard. Outdoor area was very neat and tidy and perfect for us and the dogs. Very roomy in the house. Made us feel comfortable and not cramped at all. Lots of hand soap at the sinks but only had one very tiny soap to share for both showers for 5 days. Kind of strange. I would say that had to be the housekeeping staff that did not make sure everything was stocked appropriately. Very friendly and quiet neighborhood. Would stay again.
