Experience year-round all that Walden has to offer by staying in "The Walden House".
This 3 bedroom house will sleep 9. Features 1 king bed, 1 queen bed, 2 twin beds, and a sofa bed, perfect for a variety of guests. Enjoy the beautiful jetted bathtub, and convenient amenities like high speed WiFi, a fitness room and a premium 8-person hot tub.
Have fun in the game room featuring a high-quality Ballard pool table, wet bar and mini basketball game.

You can delight your taste buds with a sweet cup of complimentary coffee or latte from the coffee bar while watching the sunrise from the deck.

At night entertain yourself by the Dakota Fire Pit while witnessing the blanket of stars. Cook up a savory steak on the outdoor grill or take a short 10 to 15 minute walk or drive to the historic downtown Walden for a meal at one of the fine restaurants and be sure to check out the cute local shops.

Walden is surrounded 360 degrees by mountains to go and explore. Head 17miles East to the Rawah Wilderness or 23 miles West to the Mt Zirkel Wilderness. Go North 11 miles to Walden's very own sand dunes. Or go South 7 miles to the Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge. You are only 30 miles from Steamboat Springs Ski Resort. After a day of adventure, walk out to the gazebo and soak in the lovely hot tub featuring entertaining water features, such as waterfalls, lights, a variety of jets and seating positions.

Included with the house is a fully fenced pasture for your equine. And for your fur babies, there is a beautiful fenced dog run with plenty of room for them. Walden has something to offer year-round from ice fishing, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, snow boarding, fishing, local rodeos, county fair, mountain biking, hiking, ATVs, and hunting.

The "Walden House " is the perfect place for every season and is the home away from home.

Amazing property

The property is excellent. Communications was great.. The little extra things they thought of made our stay special.. Really enjoyed the hot tub, wood stoves, pool table, and the extra space.. Kitchen area was perfect for entire crew to dine together. Everything you need is there. Definitely will be back.

Amazing house, all the comforts of home, the owners have thought of everything you would need or want in this home. The homemade goodies, and complementary coffee bar just to name a few of the little touches to make our stay perfect.

College buddies from the late 70's fishing trip.

A couple buddies and I stayed at the Cozy strawbale property 4 days last weekend to do some area fishing. We hadn't seen all of us together for 16 years, although we all live an hour apart. So we planned a fishing retreat to the Walden area. Had a great time, but more visiting and catching up than fishing! The house was perfect, the guys loved it. They want to take the wives back next time! Beds were comfortably sleeping and the decor was very nice. Many amenities that we didn't take time to utilize, but might with a longer stay and the company of our wives. We didn't even use the kitchen, elected to save that time and dine in town. We really enjoyed the coffee bar and the snack/treat goodies left for us as singles! The views were great, deer in the driveway every night coming home from dinner. It's a very nice, comfortable house on the edge of the small town of Walden with lots of amenities and we plan to go back soon!
