Warm and cozy cabin accommodates up to 10. We provide just about everything you need for a private mountain getaway. Guests bring their own food, ice, coffee and firewood. Located just outside Brainard Lake Recreation Area and Indian Peaks Wilderness access. In summer - hike, paddle, fish, site see. In winter - snow shoe/x-country ski out your door! Rest, relax and recreate! The space NO OPEN FIRES OF ANY KIND ARE ALLOWED ON THIS PROPERTY. This includes propane/wood/camp/fire pit/chiminea/metal/etc. due to Colorado's potential wildfire danger. We invite you to enjoy the rustic charm of our quaint off-grid, solar and generator powered mountain cabin nestled just outside the Indian Peaks Wilderness and Brainard Lake Recreation Area in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. This 1,100 square foot mountain home is a short scenic drive west of Boulder, Colorado just off the Peak-to-Peak Highway above the historic mining town of Ward, CO. The cabin sits at approximately 9,500 ft., is south facing, with a large front porch featuring log truss framework and hand-crafted draw knife log rails. It is located off a county dirt road, providing winter access (4-wheel drive strongly recommended in winter months), situated on 8.5 acres of lodge pole, limber and aspen forest. There are two other Airbnb tiny houses on the property: one is 25 yards away (just off of the driveway near the back steps of the cabin) and the other is out of sight down the road 100 yards. ABSOLUTELY NO OPEN FIRES OF ANY KIND -- NO CAMPFIRES OR USE OF FIREPITS ALLOWED (including wood and propane). Our cabin provides a wonderful retreat from the work-a-day world of the city no matter the time of year. Let the serenity of a glorious spring sunrise greet you as you sip your morning tea or coffee in a rocker on the front porch. Enjoy the cool mountain breeze as you escape the city’s summer heat. Cozy up to the warmth of a wood burning fireplace to chase away the first hint of autumn’s chill. Feel the exhilaration of a fresh snowfall as you snowshoe or cross-country ski through the snow-laden pines. Play all day in Indian Peaks Wilderness, Brainard Lake Recreation Area, Estes Park, Rocky Mountain National Park or any of the dozens of nearby attractions and then retire to this peaceful haven where you can rock away your cares on the front porch, unwind and enjoy the wild life, including hummingbirds, chipmunks, ground squirrels, woodpeckers, Steller’s Jays, and the occasional deer or moose. This off-grid cabin is powered by a solar-panel system with generator back-up support. On most winter days and very cloudy days guests may be required to fill and start a small power generator located outside the cabin. Gas (generator fuel) and generator all provided. The cabin features a large front south facing porch with a dining area, plenty of chairs, and a relaxing porch swing. We no longer allow ANY use of the outdoor fire pit due to Colorado's year-round wildfire danger. The cabin layout provides an open living room, dining area and a fully equipped kitchen. Sleeping accommodations (up to 10) include: one private bedroom with a double bed, an upstairs loft with two twin beds and a queen bed. Please realize this sleeping loft is open to the living space below. It is not a closed off bedroom/sleeping area. The living room couch has a pull-out bed for two and our enclosed side porch has two twin beds (for spring through fall porch sleeping). We also have two cots which can be set up. The mudroom has space for setting up a queen-size air mattress to sleep another two people or you can bring the two twin mattresses in off the uninsulated side porch during the colder months. The bathroom includes a claw-foot tub, a stand-alone shower, sink with vanity, and a private toilet. Amenities: wood-burning rock fireplace, flat screen TV, DVD player, extensive DVD movie selection, WiFi, claw foot tub for two, outdoor propane grill, porch swing, numerous board games, Lincoln logs, Tinker Toys, Mexican dominoes, and playing cards. Whether you are seeking a romantic getaway for two or a fun get-together with family or friends, this cozy, yet comfortable cabin provides the ambience, relaxation and amenities to accommodate most types of gatherings. It serves as the perfect home base while you explore the area’s incredible recreational, entertainment and historical offerings. There is truly something for everyone right in the vicinity. Other things to note Guests should use MapQuest and not other map services in order to locate this property. Our cabin is in the forest off of a dirt road and many mapping/navigation services don't recognize the road. We recommend using MapQuest or the GPS coordinates you will receive in our post-booking details. We cannot guarantee perfect delivery of Wifi service at our cabin as our provider, ViaSat, provides "best-effort delivery". This describes service in which there is no guarantee that data is delivered or that delivery meets any quality of service. Electrical power for this cabin is provided through a solar-panel/battery/inverter system. On most winter days and cloudy days our back-up Honda generator must be started and run to replenish battery levels. Fuel, funnel and generator are all supplied. NO CAMPFIRES OR USE OF ANY FIREPITS -- NO OPEN FIRES ALLOWED Guests are NOT to build ANY outdoor fires or fires in the fire pit on our land as Boulder County experiences RED FLAG WARNINGS and high wildfire danger frequently. Guests are NOT to bring or use ANY form of a firepit to our property (including propane, metal, chiminea, etc). We do not allow extra day guests, overnight guests or additional vehicles during guest stays without prior permission. Please check in with us IN ADVANCE if you have a specific request for day guests or extra vehicles.
