Riverside Meadows Guest Cabin on Rio Grande Free Kayaking and Rafting
Free Snowshoeing- Kayaking- Rafting- Discounted Golf at the Rio Grande Club, contact us for more info. This listing is for the "Guest Cabin" it is the cabin to the left of the largest building seen in the main picture of this listing. It literally sits just feet from the banks of the Rio Grande River. Along with all of our cabins it has access to the river and all outside living and recreational areas including picnic areas, outdoor fire pits, hot tub, tree swing and river swimming hole. Please be sure to scroll through all the pictures so you are familiar with the layout of our place.
The Guest Cabin is a 320 square foot Norwegian style hand hewn dovetail log cabin which we built ourselves. All the cabins sit on 8 1/2 secluded acres along the banks of the Rio Grande River, a "Gold Medal River" fishery as designated by the state of Colorado. There are 4 other cabins located on this property; we live in one (the 2-story cabin in the middle) the other 2 cabins are also available on VRBO individually or as a group, the Master cabin (on the right) VRBO listing #955968 and the Studio VRBO listing # 953410 (it sits behind the cabins in the main picture). All 3 cabins are available to be rented as a group, look for VRBO listing #422090.
This Guest Cabin includes a queen size bed, leather chairs, full bathroom, gas fireplace, flat screen TV, Wi-Fi, small fridge, coffee and coffee pot. This cabin does not include a kitchen but has an outdoor picnic table with umbrella, gas grill and small outdoor chimenea.
We have inflatable kayaks, a raft and innertubes available for our guests to use free of charge (with waiver and damage deposit) to float in the river on a nice sunny day, 2-night minimum stay required. We will also shuttle guests for float trips when available and prearranged. In winter we also have snowshoes available for our guests to use and get out and explore the area.
Kayaks, rafts, tubes and snowshoes are all seasonal activities.
