The Velvet Moose • Minutes to Breck • Cozy, Upgraded Breck Mountain Retreat

Welcome to The Velvet Moose, a cozy and whimsical creekfront cabin just 4 miles from downtown Breckenridge. We are a fully licensed rental, Blue River License #: LR25-000059.

The Velvet Moose is a warm and inviting cabin located directly on Spruce Creek, offering a rare combination of natural privacy and convenient access to Breckenridge. The home has been thoughtfully updated while maintaining its classic mountain character, making it ideal for families, couples, long-weekenders, ski groups, dog owners, and anyone seeking an authentic Colorado getaway.

Inside the cabin, guests will find upgraded lighting throughout, new kitchen appliances (fridge, stove, microwave), refinished cabinetry, and redesigned dining and living areas. The living room includes a Roku smart TV and high-speed WiFi for streaming and remote work. The bathroom has been modernized with a new vanity, lighting, flooring, toilet, updated fixtures, and a new tub surround.

A new furnace, new A/C, and a complete electrical upgrade ensure comfort and reliability year-round. Premium beds and linens create a restful sleeping environment after long days on the mountain or trails.

The cabin sits beside Spruce Creek, providing a peaceful setting for morning coffee, reading, or relaxing while listening to the creek. Guests will find trail access throughout the area, offering hiking, snowshoeing, and wildlife viewing. Moose sightings are common in the area. Breckenridge Ski Resort, dining, shopping, and après-ski options are just 4 miles away.

Guests also enjoy fast communication from the host, early check-in when available, a premium cleaning team, pantry basics, and convenient storage for skis, snowboards, and fishing gear. Concierge partners are available to assist with activity planning, recommendations, and local services.

The cabin is in a great location, very accommodating staff and plenty of room. It could afford some upgrades and only one bathroom is not ideal, but we only did one night, so it worked for us!

The house was very nice. The host left a nice gift basket. We had a little trouble getting in initially but the host helped resolve it and did what he could to make things right.
