Beautifully situated cabin! Inside was as pictured and described and very clean & tidy. We had the opportunity to meet the keeper in person and she was extremely nice & again offered anything we might have forgotten. Perfect place for a small family to visit or as we were traveling 2 couples.We were pleasantly surprised and impressed that pets are welcome! While we didn’t travel with ours I’d bet your fur family members would enjoy joining you on your stay! We’ll definitely be back!
We had a lovely stay. Great location relating to hiking and closeness to Nederland and other areas. Cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. Great bathroom. It was very quiet.

Thank you Anthea! I really appreciate you taking such good care of the cabin and leaving it so clean. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. I'd be happy to host you again anytime.
We had an amazing stay. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The outdoor patio was great to sit on at night and sip wine and watch the hummingbirds and other birds. It is very easy to get to many different hiking trails and conveniently located to Nederland and Black Hawk. If you are traveling with your 4 legged friends, it has many extras to help (water bowls, poop bags etc.). The cabin sits on a quiet street which we loved. We will be back to stay for sure!

Frankie's Cabin was perfect for a quick holiday getaway for us and our dog! Clean, modern, had all the amenities we needed, and the most comfortable bed we've ever slept in. Lovely patio and fire table, too. Highly recommend!

Thank you Kelsey! You guys and your sweet pups were great guests. Thank you for taking such good care of our place and leaving it neat and tidy! We'd love to host you again.
This cabin was a wonderful launching point for our Colorado trip. We had everything we needed to feel at home when we returned each night from our travels.
We had a wonderful time at the cabin! The location was great and all the details of the cabin were amazing. Every morning we woke up to hummingbirds and fresh mountain air. Great place to stay !

We enjoyed the proximity to Golden Gate Canyon State Park. Cabin is cute and well equipped. We loved watching the hummingbirds from the deck and the fire pit was a great addition on a cool summer evening. The owner is a great communicator.

About the host
Hosted by Kelli Nicholson
I'm a Colorado Native and love the process of creating beautiful, comfortable and welcoming spaces. I've always dreamed of having a cabin in the mountains and getting the opportunity to share it with others.
Why they chose this property
The cabin sits back off the road and overlooks the valley. It feels like you are secluded but you have modern conveniences close by and it's so easy to get to the main road. It is conveniently located just an hour away from Denver and 30 minutes from Boulder and close to many State Parks and trails. Hiking, mountain biking, gambling, skiing, dining and fishing are all close by.
What makes this property unique
The unique modern design is like no other but still feels very cozy and rustic. The home was originally built as a summer cabin by Denver residents in the 1950's.
