About this property

Scenic Studio Retreat- Steps to Goldbug Hot Springs

Unmatched location, stunning views, and total comfort—this bright second-level studio is just a 7-minute walk or 2-minute drive from the Goldbug Hot Springs trailhead. Enjoy peaceful mountain and river views right from your window, along with the convenience of plenty of on-site parking. A perfect retreat for hikers, couples, friends, or solo travelers looking to relax and recharge in nature.

Tucked away on an 8-acre property, this bright and peaceful second-level studio is the perfect place to unwind. It features a queen bed, full kitchen, dining space, bathroom with a stand-up shower, and a cozy sitting area with a queen pull-out sofa.

Everything was exactly what we hoped for. We were steps away from goldbug trail head. The place was clean and had plates/bowls/silverware. There was even a snack basket in case you needed them. Loved it and can’t wait to come back.

Very clean! The host is very communicative! We brought our two doodle pups and they loved it! Hiked to Goldbug and spent the day soaking. The rental is just right for a comfy stay for a couple! We watched a movie to end the evening and the host even had popcorn for us to enjoy! Such a great experience!

I loved staying here! It was immaculate when I got there, which is not always the case with rentals. It was very peaceful. I loved seeing the horses every morning. The host was very responsive and accommodating. They also made sure the driveway was plowed and kept the stairs swept after it snowed. I did not want to leave! I will definitely be back .

The room was awesomeness perfect for our hike. Only thing I'd suggest is to wash the shower curtain. It had an awful smell.

The property was delightful and perfectly situated for our little getaway trip to Goldbug Hot Springs. It was very clean and comfortable and with a well equipped kitchen. The outdoor space was lovely - although we didn't really have time to enjoy it, but it would have been great to sit out in the yard near the creek. The only thing that could have improved our stay would be an extraction fan in the bathroom and a couple of more racks to hang towels/clothes. However, this was just a minor detail in an otherwise flawless weekend. Thank you!
