Mountaintop Cabin-secluded but close to everything!
Epic Colorado Mountain Cabin with views that will take your breath away! Remote yet near everything..... and totally Colorado. 4x4 recommended in winter months. 36 acres to walk around on the hillside that will get your heart pumping. Close to Fraser-Granby trail, 1 mile, that provides for miles of amazing groomed trails in winter months and biking and hiking in other months Wild animal sightings such as bears and moose are not unusual especially in the summer and fall months. Encounters, if any, are usually not aggressive or problematic. Cabin property is mountain hillside with plenty to explore. Rooms of cabin are all large, especially Master Bedroom that has an en suite luxury bath that is hard to leave!! Radiant heat in floor and fireplace provides warmth and ambiance. Deck is perfectly positioned to see for dozens of miles and perfect for nighttime stargazing! You'll be amazed at how much is up there at night. Cabin can hold 10+ with bunk room over 3rd bedroom, and loft area can sleep 2 or 3.
Biggest complaint from guests has been having to is so peaceful and serene. Hunters love remoteness and access to local lands. Families love the size and proximity to both Granby Ranch, Devil's Thumb and Winter Park Resorts. Not too far from Rocky Mountain National Park 25-30 minutes to Grand Lake which is the western access to the Park.
Make sure 4x4 SUV is vehicle you'll be arriving in during snow months. Summer cars are fine but "shoulder months" around snow season (Oct-May) could be tricky. Snow tires helps with any vehicle if you can have them.
The activities accessible from this property are almost unlimited.

We really enjoyed our stay at this mountain top cabin. It is a very cozy cabin far enough away to be able to relax and enjoy the scenery, but close enough to town to be convenient. We will be returning in the future and would recommend to anyone.
“I had an absolutely amazing stay at The Cabin House! The space was spotless, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable visit. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and responsive, making sure my experience was top-notch. The location was perfect, close to local attractions yet peaceful enough for a relaxing getaway. I would highly recommend Verbo House to anyone looking for a perfect stay. Can’t wait to come back!
This was a beautiful property with INCREDIBLE views. Also a pretty short drive to both Granby and Winter park. The place was very clean and the host is responsive. I would stay here again!
We had an amazing stay at this cabin. We unwound on the deck , watching the amazing sunsets, soaked in the hot tub for HOURS , slept in and connected as a family. As Chistians, we felt our hearts drawn closer to God as we rested and refilled our souls at this lovely cabin on the hill.
My wife and I stayed in this cabin on our honeymoon, it was perfect for us 2 and our doggies. The views this cabin has are amazing! We were only 30ish minutes away from the RMNP and just a few minutes from Granby. It is secluded but also close enough to things around there. We will be coming back!
Secluded property is easy to get to. I was a little bit concerned getting to the cabin based on reading other reviews, but I’m happy to say we had no issues and it was not as difficult as I thought it would be. The cabin is cozy and views are fabulous. I would definitely stay here again.
We spent a week visiting RMNP using the cabin as our home base. It gave us a great place to come home to with beautiful views and everything we needed to fix wonderful home cooked breakfasts and dinners. It has a beautiful fireplace but it was too warm this week for us to use it. If I ever get to come out here again, I will stay here again.
I can’t say enough great things about this home! The views were stunning, location was great and it was so comfortable for our family. The amenities a large kitchen, fireplace, and new hot tub really made it hard to leave to do our planned activities. Hope to come back again!
the property is exactly as described and exactly what you see in pictures. the host and the owner are awesome and there with any questions or needs. the place is beautifully secluded on top of the hill and at the very end of the road so you are literally all by yourself but not far from the highway. it is an awesome place.
The house and location were wonderful! We enjoyed mornings and evenings on the large deck! There were several free hiking trails within a short drive away. Short drive to grocery store, breweries and shops.
We are an avid vrbo couple and we think this is hands down the best place you could stay in. Great for any combination of family- young, old, boring, or active/ this place has you covered. Thank you so much for sharing your treasured home❤️
This house is a beautiful, well kept cabin with amazing views! We enjoyed the beautiful mountain views and comfortable furnishings and long walks with the dogs. The house had everything we needed and provided easy access to everything — RMNP, plenty of hiking trails, restaurants, grocery store, and breweries in Granby and Fraser and more. We can’t wait to visit again!
Beautiful setting, quiet neighborhood with trail system access and spacious dog friendly cabin. Can’t ask for more

About the host
Hosted by Valerie R Whitford
We are property managers for our good friends who live in Texas and cannot use this place enough. Their loss is your gain as this "remote" cabin, situated in the middle of all the fun things to do in Grand County. Make sure you bring your 4x4 or AWD vehicles in non-summer months as the access to the property would require it.
Why they chose this property
Hand built by owner in 2013-2014. Bucket list accomplishment. Remote yet close to it all. A luxury cabin to say the least. Unplug from the busy-ness of life, and recharge batteries with loved ones and new 4 legged friends. Mangers spent the entire 2015 year and love nearly every minute of it. The views are amazing but accessing the property will require 4x4 or AWD vehicle in winter and shoulder seasons. Summer is ok for all types of cars.
What makes this property unique
Views, access to trails for hiking and skiing, large 36 acre footprint, unplugged yet close to all the amenities. Local wildlife very friendly and will approach cabin frequently. Bears, deer and moose are most often seen, while elk, rocky mountain hares and foxes are around a bunch too. Cabin is not wired for cable, DirecTV or high speed WiFi. We have "low speed" wifi suitable for email and SD movie streaming, but you might have to spend time talking, visiting and exploring the local area instead of "surfing the internet" while on vacation here. GO OUTSIDE! Many guests have commented that at first it was a struggle and inconvenience, but by trips end they loved just hanging with the family and doing stuff, instead of surfing. Oxygen service highly recommended and can be provided onsite upon arrival.
