The space
Escape to the mountains of Colorado and experience the ultimate combination of modern and rustic in this cozy cabin retreat.  Built in the 1890's with 12" thick walls, this delightful space will transport you back in time with its beautiful, handcrafted woodwork.  
With a spacious covered patio and access to private walking trails through picturesque forest and meadows, this place has everything you need for a peaceful and rejuvenating vacation, retreat or romantic getaway.  
Enjoy the mountain view with a restored pioneer covered wagon in the foreground.  The wheels and axels are original from the late 1800's, but the box has been restored so you can pose for pictures with Pikes Peak as a backdrop.
Enjoy observing wildlife in their natural habitat, including deer, owls, rabbits, and a variety of birds, with occasional elk sightings.  
While sipping coffee, tea or wine in the Adirondack rocking chairs on the covered patio, witness breathtaking views of double rainbows, radiant sunrises, and /or lingering evening alpenglow on Pikes peak, America’s most visited mountain. 
While enjoying the view, feel the warmth of a fire in the fire pit, relax in the cedar barrel sauna, 7 seat hot tub (coming February 2025), or play an unforgettable game of horseshoes!
Moving inside, the quartz counter-topped kitchen is fully equipped including items such as a reverse osmosis water filter, gas stove, oven, microwave, full sized fridge, Nespresso coffee maker, dishes, utensils and pots and pans needed for preparing delicious meals.

In addition to the queen captains' bed, a sofa/futon bed folds out to a comfortable full-size mattress that can sleep 1 adult or 2 children.  Rest your head on premium hotel grade pillows:  your choice of goose down feather pillows or non-feather pillows.  
For your comfort, protection and as a sign of outstanding cleanliness, all beds are prepared with quality linens, clean ironed sheets, down duvets, freshly laundered duvet covers and bedspreads, mattress protectors and pillow protectors.
