About this property

Gorgeous Mountain Cabin, Family Friendly w/ Expansive Windows, Fireplace - Willow Creek

Willow Creek is in Placer Valley, close to Highway 9 leading to skiing, hiking, fishing, and exploring the Central Rockies. This home is just minutes away from Breckenridge to go skiing during the winter. Fishing is within walking distance. To hike you are minutes from many trail heads. ATV and jeep trails are also very close. The yard has a seasonal stream and willows for you to explore.

The home has a spacious living area with a wood-burning fireplace, open to the dining area and custom kitchen, with a Jenn-Aire commercial oven. The kitchen is well stocked and has custom cabinets and counter tops. There are 3 bedrooms. The upstairs bedroom has a queen bed and a twin bed. The bathroom has a tub and shower on this level. The laundry room is also on this level. On the main level, there are 2 bedrooms both with queen beds and private from the open living area. This level has a full bath with walk-in shower.

The great room is a huge room with lofted ceilings and two-story windows that have views of the mountains and the forest. There is lots of comfortable seating as well as a cozy wood-burning fireplace that has a blower to heat the home in addition to the central heating. There are 2 full baths (one on each level). The large dining has seating for 6-8 and there is also seating at the kitchen island. The outdoor area is also spectacular at this home with fabulous views, a gas grill, a large deck with comfy chairs. You can hear the stream and wildlife watch.

Fairplay and Alma are the activity center of the Colorado Rocky Mountains and is often referred to as the Base Camp for all activities some of which include skiing, snowboarding, hiking, mountain climbing, snow-shoeing, horseback riding (winter too), ice climbing, fishing, hunting, rafting, snowmobiling, 4-wheeling, ATVing, mine exploring, canoeing, kayaking, and much much more.

If you can think of an outdoor activity, you will probably find it within 10-20 minutes of the cabin. It is a great area to call your "Base Camp".

We had a great stay. We would stay there again! It was a great place to get away from our everyday lives. If i didnt have to leave the house, i didnt. But if you are with people who want to see things, it wasnt too far from other little towns.

Nice

Accommodated our group of 6 adults very well. Home was clean with plenty of dishes and utensils for eating in. Outdoor deck seating is always a must for renting home in the mountains, and this home met that with an outdoor dining set. Communication with host was clear and easy.

Alma is a Gem

Got there a little early in the season, but we had more than enough to do. Bring a 4WD to explore. Cabin was great. Dishwasher was not functioning, this was a drag since we cooked 90% of our meals for 7 people. Overall, was great!

Beautiful place

It is a beautiful house well maintained with everything you need to cook and enjoy the snow in the mountains. The only thing I would improve is the humidity in the house when we arrived the humidifier was empty and humidity was below 20%, I would recommend having someone checking the humidifier and prepared before guests would arrive.

Extended Weekend Getaway

Overall, we had a great time at this property. It is a very nice house and we felt very comfortable there. It was great to drink some wine, sit outside and look at the stars outside or see a little wildlife in the morning. Only thing I did not realize is that there is no door for the bedroom/loft area upstairs. Other than that everything was great 👍.

We've stayed in various rental properties in Breckenridge and Alma over the past six years, and Willow Creek is our all-time favorite. The house is absolutely beautiful, and it provided a perfect base from which to explore nearby hiking opportunities as well as day trips to Breck and Frisco. Susan and Angela, our contacts at Second Home Second Chance in Alma, were most accommodating in answering any questions we had. We absolutely would stay there again and can't wait to return.

Mountain getaway

We had a lovely, relaxing stay. We enjoyed wildlife, beautiful views, good food, and quality time together. The cabin was well stocked with essentials, aside from coffee. Actually, there was some coffee there, just not any we liked. We had no issues with the WiFi, streamed television shows and movies without interruption. I was very impressed with how well the property manager responded and even reached out first a couple times. I was also impressed with the book selection at the property.

Awesome stay

We enjoyed our stay in the Willow Creek cabin in Alma. There was plenty of room for 6 adults and the cabin had all the amenities we needed for our stay. The huge windows provide wonderful views. The roads were covered in snow and it snowed another 5- 6 inches our second night but we were able to get around with 4 wheel drive. We did request an extra plowing of the driveway due to the hill and option of having parking side by side but that was not possible as the plowers are individuals with other things to do. But, the company in charge of the home came out anyway and spread sand over the driveway and walkway to give us more security. I very much appreciate that extra mile and for the responsiveness throughout our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful stay!

Our little get away was amazing. The house had a beautiful views and it was very pretty. Everyone fell going up the path way where the snow accumulated so that was funny to place bets but all in all Breckinridge was like a 20-30 minute drive. There is little to no signal outside. The wifi helps a little but you Have to make sure you are in the right spot. But everything was amazing. Thank you
