***Welcome, Big Game Hunters***
The Lost Elk Lodge is ideally situated for deer, elk and other big game hunting (GMU 80/81). Contact us for a quote!
***Your Mountain Getaway***
A stay at the Lost Elk Lodge in the heart of historic Jasper, Colorado, offers a unique, off-grid wilderness experience for young and old alike. From hiking to ATVing, hunting to fishing, wildlife viewing to just kicking back, there's a little something for everyone.
Built on the location of the old Cherokee Trading Post of a bygone era, the Lodge sits on an acre of commercial resort/tourist (CRT) land, with 300 feet of frontage on Forest Service Road 250 and a seasonal creek running next to it. It's powered by solar and propane with a gasoline generator as back-up. An artesian well supplies the cabin with fresh spring water.
The Lodge itself is approximately 1100 square feet with an additional 720 square feet of wood decks complete with outdoor furniture. Inside there are 2 bedrooms with room for cots, 2 bathrooms, and an open-plan living and dining area. The place is fully furnished with everything you would need for a comfortable stay including bedding, towels, and all of the basic dry goods. Satellite internet and WiFi is also available for you to connect with the outside world whenever you so desire.
A short hike from the property takes you in to the Rio Grande National Forest where elk, deer, bear, big horn sheep, coyotes, game birds and countless other game are readily available. Likewise, the Platoro Reservoir is a short drive up the road and hosts freshly stocked trout and Kokanee salmon, not to mention all of the secret streams, lakes and ponds known by Jasper residents.
