The cabin was the perfect size for 2 people. It had everything you'd need for a short stay. The bed was comfortable. Idaho Springs was about a 10 min drive away for a grocery store and more dining options. Would definitely stay again

Beautiful backdrop behind cabin, plus can walk down to river. Lots of traffic noise during day due to being right off interstate.

So rented the one bedroom cabin for a ski trip. Convinced me that a tiny home may just be the ticket for second home near the slopes. Great accommodations! Staff was very responsive. Quiet place to relax after a long day on the slopes and centrally located to a ton of ski hills. Will be back!

Nice place and easy lauchpoint to get to mountains

Cabin was very clean and comfortable. Some practical things would be nice. No broom, no coffee or instructions on how to use the electric fireplace would have been nice, but NOT a deal breaker. We will stay there again.

Great place to wander around and hike

Great Place. We stayed in the Aspen Cabin. It was equipped with handicap accessible bathroom which was awesome being that I’m disabled. Parking was easy. The only negative was the bed was super hard and the pullout couch was pretty uncomfortable as well. Everything else was great. Food from the bar and food truck was pretty tasty.

I would only stay here if you were going to use the adventure. The restaurant and bar was closed giving us little to do. The manager should stay in the cabin to see how odd the layout was. We also were charged a cleaning fee on top of the overnight charge.
