-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Twin Bed | Loft: King Bed, Twin Bed

This 5-acre mountain cabin - surrounded by impressive views yet cozily secluded from noise and distraction - feels like it’s on the top of the world. The cabin offers the same historical charm of its original 1934 structure.

As soon as you arrive, step up the wooden staircase to the expansive deck, where you’ll be welcomed by magnificent views of Mt. Meeker towering above the treetops. With a gas grill and plenty of space to dine on the deck, family cookouts amidst these impressive views will be a breeze!

Inside, the 1,684-square-foot interior boasts a spacious living area with a wood-burning fireplace, fully equipped galley kitchen, and dining room with an expandable 8-person table. Whether you want to read a book in front of the fire or whip up a favorite recipe for your loved ones, this home has it all!

Come nighttime, head to one of the 2 cozy bedrooms or step up to the loft. With a private balcony off the loft, you’ll have the best views of the Twin Sisters Peaks!

In the morning, wander through the pines to the open space with a large pond, revealing the handiwork of many generations of beavers. Settle down on the hammock, stroll around the sparkling green waters with a cup of hot cocoa in hand, and be sure to keep an eye out for the local wildlife.

-- THE LOCATION --

Nestled on 5 acres in the Rocky Mountains, this house is the perfect getaway for anyone wanting to get out into nature. Nearby, you’ll find opportunity for outdoor activities, including hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and horseback riding.

If you’re up for a challenge, trek to the top of one of Colorado’s legendary fourteeners, like Longs Peak, as the trail head is just a short drive away! Wild Basin Area is also nearby and offers hiking options varying in length and difficulty.

Drive less than 20 minutes north to the town of Estes Park, where you’ll find local breweries such as Rock Cut Brewing Company or Estes Park Brewery! Grab a local craft beer and then check out the world-famous Stanley Hotel, which was the inspiration for Stephen King’s “The Shining,” and rests beside the renowned Rocky Mountain National Park.

Alternatively, Lyons is about 30 minutes away, with its Planet Bluegrass - a 20-acre outdoor concert venue - and lazy rafting.
