Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Alma
We have owned a "cabin" in the mountains since 2000 and have many memories of hiking, skiing ,and taking 4-wheel drive trips etc. with friends and family over the years. Colorado has sunshine filled days year round and the outdoors of our area has much to offer. Every "cabin" we have owned has been rented short term and enjoyed by many from all over the USA and foreign countries.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Our home "Timberline" has been enjoyed by numerous honeymoon couples, families, and adults who want to experience the beauty of the mountains. We back to the National Forest, have drop dead gorgeous views, private yet not isolated, several 14's just outside our door, trout fishing area's close by, reservoir with huge "jaw dropping" waterfall and old mine, close to Breckenridge with many year round events. Enjoy our hot tub while watching the sunset and sipping wine or your favorite cocktail. Feed the birds and watch the chipmunks. After you are settled check out our Welcome Book stuffed with things to do in our area. There is something to do for everyone. We would love to help you create the perfect Colorado vacation.
Fishing, Hiking, Magnolia Mine, Montgomery Reservoir Trail Head, Beautiful Waterfall, Great Place for A Picnic!
Hoosier Pass is part of the Continental Divide, seperating Alma and Fairplay to the south, and Breckenridge to the north with a elevation 11,532 ft. Hiking/cross country skiing/snow mobile trails and winter tubing.
Great 4-wheel drive trail to Leadville, Colorado. Very rough, slow trail, beautiful views, plan on all day trip with lunch in historical Leadville.
Kite Lake is at the base of three Colorado "14ers." with a picnic area, campground and launching point for hikers seeking to summit Mt. Democrat, Mt. Lincoln and/or Mt. Bross.
Leadville can be driven to by highway or 4-wheel drive trails. Fun day trip either way!
A Restored 1880s Mining Town which is fun for young and old!
Owner's Map of Alma
We have lived, worked and raised two boys in the mountains of Colorado since 1977. We became empty-nesters and moved to downtown Denver and live across from Coors Field baseball park with our 10 year old chocolate lab Hunter. We built "Timberline" in 2006 and rented it short term the summer of 2009 & 2011. With a few exceptions we decided to use our home for personal use in 2010 and would love to have you visit in 2012.

Thank you for a delightful week! We loved the hot tub, the awesome night sky and watching the chipmunks. We look forward to another visit, there just wasn't enough time to do everything we wanted to do! We loved watching the aspens change. The house is so spacious and had everything we needed and then some.
Owner response:We appreciate your thoughtful review and agree that the changing of the aspen trees is a beautiful time to be at Timberline. Yes, Please come again! Reading your comments in our guest book at the cabin it sounds like you were busy. We are happy you had some cool weather and a great Colorado vacation.

Timberline Lodge

Timberline Lodge and Alma is the perfect location-very secluded yet so close to many activities. Alma & Timberline make the absolute perfect “base camp”. Timberline Lodge is awesome-the little touches like the popcorn machine & board games, plus great deck, hot tub, and bird feeder make the cabin special. The location is superb! I only wish Timberline could sleep 8! We want to come back next summer and bring our 3 grown kids & their friends. Thanks so much for the exemplary hospitality!
Owner response:Gary, Your kind words are appreciated and we are very glad that you and Lynn had such a wonderful time in our area. We try to make Timberline your home away from home and like to add "little extra's" to make you smile when you stay with us. We look forward to having you visit again.

A Piece of Heaven

We are from Houston, met my brother & sister in law in Tulsa, Ok. where they live, then we flew to Denver & rented a car to Timberlline. The photos that Brenda (owner) have posted really does not do the place justice. It is the most beautiful place to stay & relax. We enjoyed just setting there in the morning, drinking coffee & looking out the windows at the beautiful mountains!! It snowed lightly one morning for about 30 to 45 min. & of course being from Houston, we got excited. But you can see that Brenda has put a lot of thought, love & energy into making the cabin a place that everyone can enjoy. We will always be grateful to her for sharing a part of her "heaven" with us. It makes you stop & realize what God had created for us & it is ashame that we do not slow down long enough to enjoy his creations. Again, Brenda, thank you for sharing with us. Hope to be back before too long. The Grimes & The Jacobs
Owner response:Thanks so much for your wonderful review. We try very hard to make certain everyone enjoys their stay. It was our pleasure having you stay and we look forward to your possible return.

We live in Denver and because so, we have enjoyed access to a number of mountain places over many years, but this place is special. This little Alma house is absolutely spotless and beautifully decorated. The views, almost along the timberline, are positively stunning and you can enjoy them from the living room as well as from the hot tub on the deck. Wildlife viewing is absolutely incredible too! The owners have filled the house with charm and the beds are as comfortable as those you'd find in a 4 star Denver hotel. So very few mountain properties are as well maintained as this cabin and it shows the very second you enter the front door. Thanks Brenda and Doug, you have a terrific place that will create so many memories for those who are lucky enough to learn about this cabin and have the chance to stay at your little slice of heaven on the mountain!
Owner response:Thank you for choosing to stay with us! I'm glad that our home met with your expectations and you enjoyed your stay. Whatever the season Timberline offers the beauty of Colorado. We have a Facebook page this year and I plan on posting area events and the ever changing scenery around Timberline. I hope you will consider staying with us again in the future.
Recommended for:Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, sightseeing, age 55+, girls getaway, families with young children, romantic getaway.
