Location: Crested Butte, Crested Butte Area, Southwest, Colorado, USA (Six miles from Crested Butte in the Heart of the Rocky Mtns)
Accommodations: Cabin, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 6)
Six miles west and 2000 feet above the historic resort town of Crested Butte, is spectacular Lake Irwin. This crystal clear, trout filled, high mountain gem is completely surrounded by national forest, but for a few private cabins. Here you can find total seclusion in one of the most beautiful locations in America.
Our cabin, one of two on the lake, sleeps six, comes with everything from fly rods to mountain bikes, and can virtually restore any spirit in days. Relax in front of a roaring fire while gazing up at snowcapped 14,000-foot peaks. Take a canoe, of the three provided, and cut a silent wake across the blue mirror that is Irwin. Hike a flower-strewn path along the waters edge to meadows and waterfalls that would make a postcard jealous. Climb to the Irwin Lodge and enjoy lunch and horseback ride or just relax on your own front porch and breathe deep of the purest air on the planet.
We provide all cookware, bedding, over-size bath, solar electricity, piano, stereo, gas heat, barbecue, small library, and even a jeep for an extra fee.
The cabin is available at a nightly rate. Pets are allowed and children encouraged. But remember, there is no TV and no phone, so whoever you bring be prepared to sit back and communicate.
We ask for a three night minimum, 50% deposit, and 60-day cancellation policy. We expect the balance two months prior to your arrival. No one in ten years has requested their money back by the way.
We look forward to meeting you and can assure your vacation will be a relaxing experience in the most stunning setting in this country.
The cabin is now available for winter fun. Ski or snowmobile to this well-stocked, cozy retreat nestled in the heart of Colorado's winter wonderland. The finest backcountry skiing by day and relax in an over-sized tub by a crackling fire by night. A true adventure! $100 for a snowmobile.
