The house was nice and very clean. We didn’t receive check in information and could not get into the home upon arrival. We also did not have enough towels for everyone. With that, we only had access to one 1/2 roll of paper towels and we ran out. Lastly we did not know what to do with our trash bags upon check out. But all that being said, it was a beautiful home with an amazing view and the lake was fantastic for our group. We will be staying again for sure!

Amazing location of this beautiful log home impeccably decorated. Beautiful master bedroom. Amazing wildlife viewing. Fishing permission buttons included. Kitchen is well equipped, wifi and direct TV included. Basement has a very comfy sectional couch with professional poker table and popcorn machine. Washer and dryer in the mud room is a big plus. Definitely will stay here again.

Nice cabin with a gorgeous view. The lake was wonderful to walk around and look at every morning with a cup of coffee. When we first arrived there were a couple mishaps within the cabin but by the next morning Bart was over there and getting them fixed. He was super to work with and because of the inconveniences he went above and beyond to make the rest of our trip great! The only reason I gave the rating 3 stars on cleanliness is because of all the clutter that was throughout the cabin, drawers and closets. There were a couple things that the listing showed the cabin had but ended up not having but Bart was very apologetic about it and said that would be taken care of. Overall the cabin was great for our annual family vacation and if we ever come back to Idaho Springs we will definitely stay here again! Thank you Bart for making our trip even more special for my family!

Nice, but …

The house is lovely, has a homey feel and is well appointed — but is a work in progress. The outdoor and basement areas were unkempt with tools, tractor, building debris, etc. Many of the owners personal items were in drawers, dirty shoes and coats in the laundry room, etc. As well, there was a lot of visible dust on pictures, around the fireplace, and on the Christmas decorations still up in October. The home has a lot of large nice windows — but were all very dirty to the point that we had to personally wash the ones that look over the lake. The listing shows a view of the lake. But it only shows one side of the lake. The other side is all old dilapidated buildings - some vacant and some occupied. This was not disclosed in the listing. Most disturbing however was that there was a neighbor who would chase our cars screaming profanities as we drove up to the house. This did not feel settling at all and created a frightful environment. What we suspect is that the area is under going a transformation and will be all beautiful someday. In the meantime, please understand that this home stands out as an anomaly of the quality of homes in the area. The owner was very quick to respond to any issues we had — and so long as you understand the context for the house, you will have a nice time as we did. Idaho springs is a great area.

St. Mary’s Celebration

This rental is in the most amazing location! We celebrated my son’s graduation and had a vacation of a lifetime. We hiked St. Mary’s, white water rafted, went up Mt. Evans and spent time in Idaho Springs. The only thing that could have been better was that we didn’t know as renters we couldn’t go out on the lake with the paddle boat and canoes. Otherwise the rental was beautiful, comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. We cooked almost all our meals there.

Great Views

My buddies and I stayed here for a Bachelor party and it was the perfect location. The cabin can easily fit 8 people and the kitchen provided everything we needed to stay up in the mountains and eat without heading down to Idaho Springs. There are a lot of trails within driving distance of this spot, and you won’t be disappointed when you arrive at Silver Lake and see your destination across the lake. Excellent time. Plus we saw moose! Thanks Debbra and Bart!

Awesome location. Certainly takes a bit to get there but it was worth it. Close to St Mary’s Glacier so it was fun to hike. We had a great time on the deck with friends and saw a concert at Red Rocks. Great trip!

Hella comfy and cozy. Very spacious, type of cabin u see in the movies or Home Alone/modern-day house of Stark. Well-decorated . Cabin right on silver lake. Early morning views of mountains are worth it. I felt more manly, more of a mountain man vibe. 11/10👌💰🐺🐺🐺🐺

Beautiful area

Stayed as a group and enjoyed this cabin and the surrounding area. The cabin itself is spacious with comfortable beds and had a fully stocked kitchen. We were able to enjoy the view of the lake (which isn’t as private as pictured). There are condos directly across. I had to personally message the host for the check in, check out + wifi procedures. In the future I would recommend posting those online to make the process smoother :) some work still being done, a little messy, drawers stuffed with items and fridge filled with old food. Overall we had a truly enjoyable stay. With some slight improvements this could easily be a 5 star rental.

Amazing Cabin

We absolutely loved our stay at this gorgeous cabin and lake! The wood details throughout are so detailed and gorgeous. We were pleasantly surprised with the nearly finished basement - wood burning stove, poker table, and wet bar. The best parts were the master bedroom, how close the lake was and the wraparound deck. Such a great stay with very responsive hosts!
