Princeton Hot Springs Pools. Visit the recently awarded Browns Canyon National Park, which is just a short drive away. Spend your day just relaxing with the sound of Chalk Creek at your back yard or adventure out for a day of rafting, horseback riding, fishing, hiking, ATVing along with all the winter activity. For Skiing, Monarch is about an hour away along with all the other major ski resorts like ski cooper, Brechenridge, Copper, Vail etc.. just a bit further. Our 1,200 sq.ft., two bedroom Log Cabin is surrounded by spectacular quaking Aspens and Mature Pines, with views of Mt. Princeton and Antero just outside your living room/kitchen windows. Relax on one of two decks, or enjoy sitting in a forest eco-system overlooking the rushing waters of Chalk Creek. Enjoy our new outdoor fireplace which can be used even during fire restrictions. If you enjoy fishing, test your skills in one of the many nearby lakes, or just walk a few feet down to your private 200 feet of creekside fishing.

Our authentic Log Cabin has a Southwestern/Mountain decor and has been restored with all the modern conveniences while maintaining its rustic charm. The living room has a large wood burning fireplace, satellite with 42" flat screen TV/DVD, player, Vaulted tongue and groove Aspen ceilings, and ample seating.

Perfect Cabin near Trails
We loved our short stay at the cabin in the woods. We loved the fireplace and the location. The master bedroom is amazing! Bed was great and the skylights were awesome. The location is so close to so many trails in the area. We would stay again for sure. Host were very accommodating and good with communication.

Lovely Getaway
The cabin is cozy and it's hosts are welcoming! My partner and I had such a wonderful time exploring Salida, walking around the hiking trails by the cabin and being able to sit by the river and stargaze. We will be back! 😊

This is such a charming cabin. Very quiet and historical area. You can hear Chalk Creek passing by below and view, not only the natural landscape, but also the way the owners maintain the property with care and appeal.

Fabulous Mountain Get Away
A little gem of a place in a beautiful setting! The cabin gives of a perfect mountain feel, secluded, quite other than for the sound of the river, with comfy beds and gorgeous views! Close to fishing, dog friendly and we even saw a moose! So happy we could bring our furry family members, it makes all the difference, and the hosts were on site, friendly and very helpful! Hoping we can come back someday!

Lovely cabin by the creek
The setting for this cabin was outstanding. The sound of the creek, peaceful location and good size living spaces made for a relaxing vacation. The nearby location is great for hiking, hot springs, mountain passes (Cottonwood) and lakes. A good slice of being in Colorado.

The cabin was perfect. It offers all the cleanliness and comforts of a home but in a mountain cabin . . We had absolutely everything we needed . The amenities are well thought of . The host Katie was extremely sweet and made checking in and out easy peasy . The views were amazing including the Moose and her calf who came to visit one morning while having our coffee . We were sad to leave but will be back to this cabin every opportunity we get .

The cabin is just as described and very comfortable. There are some very good steps down the hillside to the creek. The light is spectacular through the aspen and pine with the mountains behind in all directions. Gorgeous!

My good friend and I stayed there for a few nights and really enjoyed it. The property is fantastic. Very serene and close to some excellent ATV/4x4 trails as well as numerous other activities. The hosts were wonderful and were there to greet us and make sure we were all set. Can’t recommend it enough. We look forward to going back!
