Creekside Woodland Brook Historic Cabin & Creek. Secluded, yet an easy walk to town & river. Minutes from Hot Springs
Our Historic Log Cabin is situated close to the banks of the old Cottonwood Creek before it was diverted downtown. We are nestled in the heart of Colorado's most spectacular 14,000 foot Peaks, with Mount Princeton, Antero, Yale, Harvard, Columbia and more. In fact there is no place on Earth where you can visit more 14'er's from one valley. You must go up Cottonwood Pass as well as the other beautiful canyon south of Buena Vista to visit Famous White Chalk Cliffs, overlooking Mt. Princeton Hot Springs Pools. We share a nice with the other cabins that speckle the landscape of this secluded 5 acre property full of tall mature trees and many grassy meadows for your relaxation and pleasure. There is also a small pond just to the left as you leave our front door - follow the creek and it will lead you to the pond.
Our Log Cabin is small and cozy - perfect for an affordable romantic relaxing getaway. It is surrounded by spectacular quaking Cottonwoods, Aspens and Pines. Come relax on the front porch area, or enjoy the feeling of being in a forest eco-system overlooking waters of our creek - all while just a few minutes walk or bike ride from the historic central downtown area of Buena Vista. If you enjoy fishing, test your skills in one of the many nearby creeks and lakes to find yourself a private fishing spot.
Our authentic Log Cabin has a nice Mountain decor; having been restored with all the modern conveniences while maintaining its rustic charm. The living room has a gas heater and a studio kitchen with all appliances except an oven and dishwasher. This one room cabin has a luxurious King size log bed, with log vaulted ceilings and an enclosed private bathroom and shower area.
Nearby activities include white-water rafting, hiking, fishing, skiing, snowmobiling, ATVing, mountain biking, golf etc., or simply relax in one of Colorado's best Olympic size, Natural Mountain Hot Springs. One or two bed room cabin.

Owner's Profile
Why the Owner Chose Buena Vista
Buena Vista is a fantastic area in the heart of Colorado - As the Chamber of Commerce motto for Chaffee county goes; " NOW THIS IS COLORADO!"
The area is home to the most 14'ers in the world and yet despite the great views of Mts all around, the valley is kind of a sunbelt and comfy cozy most of the time. The Arkansas River runs thru the area and is host to the largest number of Raft companies and most annual visitation of river runners in the world. Kayaking park at south main is another area attraction and hiking trails, horseback companies and biking abound. Skiing is not far - north or south and the Hot Springs at Mt Princeton or Cottonwood are also some of the best in the world.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
Drive up any of the main area passes to get a really wonderful view of Colorado any time of year. Cottonwood pass has easy access to incredible hiking and sunsets at the Continental Divide - Up Chalk Creek canyon there are more scenic views, lakes & old mining towns like St Elmo with great aspen fall colors or hiking & XX Skiing any time of year. There's an opportunity to see 5 eco-systems in a 15 mile drive - from high desert to tundra so be sure to get out and explore around the area. See also the Hot Springs and the River Adventures. Truly this is the Heart of Colorado so ENJOY!

The deck and back yard is nice. Quiet and a nice place to relax. The inside of the cabin is small. The kitchen area is very basic a a little disheveled. The heater is very old and scarey looking without any instructions. Dealing with the owners was a little chaotic.
