The owners were great to deal with, the views were amazing, and going on the deck by the hummingbirds was a special treat. The location was more rugged than we were expecting, but if you are looking for a secluded mountain getaway, this is a great place to stay!

The house was beautiful. We enjoyed watching the hummingbirds and other wildlife from the upstairs deck. Steven & Leslie were very accommodating after we had to cut our stay short when my brother got altitude sickness. Would definitely stay here again!

Location, views, and hummingbirds are incredible! You truly are nestled in the mountains and it's unlike anything we have ever experienced! The home is well stocked with anything and everything you need from kitchen necessities to linens and even the emergency migraine wrap! It is an awesome mountain home and felt like home for the week we stayed. It was an exciting adventure driving up to the house, with the switchbacks and mountain road, and we were glad we didn't drive it for the first time in the dark! Overall, it was a wonderful place to stay and made our Colorado trip fabulous!

Beautiful home in the mountains

This house is incredible! They had us pay a damage deposot up front which ive mever had a host do before but once inside the home I completely understand. They refunded our deposit within 48 hours of leaving. The house is lovely, the view is truly unbelivable. I've had many vrbos claim to have a "fully stocked" kitchen, but this was no joke, all cooking staples and good quality pots, pans, utensils, etc. The hosts are so kind and communicative and offered exellent suggestions for activities in the area. Highly recomend this place and the hosts!

Amazing stay!

Thank you to the hosts who opened their home to us! I simply can't say enough good things about this incredible property. Outstanding location, breath taking views, and above all relaxing. Caught myself and my boys saying "it's time to head back home" after a day of enjoying the slopes. The owners have thought of everything and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. I can't imagine a better place to stay in Idaho Springs.

The Perfect White Christmas!

Steve and Leslie were perfect hosts and their cabin in the mountains was the most idyllic getaway for our family over the holidays! You'll definitely want a FWD/AWD vehicle for navigating the drive up to the cabin, but it is very doable if a bit unnerving the first time you travel up the drive, especially in the snow. Idaho Springs offers great dining and shopping, and the surrounding area has so much to offer in terms of outdoor adventures! We had the best time there and will definitely visit again!

Best Stay

Hosts were very accommodating and helpful throughout our stay. Loved all of the recommendations that they made as far as activities & restaurants. We really enjoyed having a remote cabin in the woods vs staying in town anywhere. The road up was a little hairy for us in our van the first time but we got used to it. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Hummingbird Heaven

My family and I had a great stay at this beautiful mountain location. Sitting on the deck just watching the numerous hummingbirds was one of our favorite things to do! The views are great and the property is very private. We enjoyed playing ping pong and relaxing in the hot tub. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking at the house when we didn’t feel like going out. We found plenty to do in Idaho Springs and the surrounding areas. We would definitely recommend this property!

Amazing Getaway!!!

This property was absolutely incredible!!! Location, views, seclusion! Only a short drive to Idaho Springs to grab any essentials. However- this beautiful home was stocked with EVERYTHING you could ever need!!! Each morning and evening was spent surrounded by dozens of hummingbirds on the deck! The owner Steven was a pleasure to work with. One of the best VRBO we have ever stayed in! Thank You!!!

Beautiful home, awesome views!

This home was a perfect getaway. We had a group of seven. 4 adults and three 17year olds. Plenty of room for us all. The views were beautiful. The home had everything we needed. The hot tub was perfect after a long day of hiking. We enjoy the ping pong table also. We especially spent a lot of time on the deck, perfect for meals and early morning coffee and just hanging out.

Peaceful & incredible views

House was amazing - we had two kids ages 3 & 5 and there were lots of fun toys and books to keep them busy. Hot tub was so nice, great views out every single window. We had coffee on the deck with the hummingbirds twice a day. Do not take the driveway warning lightly - we had a 4wd full size pick up truck and it was difficult to navigate the switchbacks. We got used to it after a few trips though. The location and views are worth it! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Steve & Leslie were very easy to communicate with.

No go for winter visits.

The good: The home was beautiful and one of the best stocked VRBO homes we have rented. The views are gorgeous from the decks and outdoor hot tub are wonderful. The not so good: The driveway to get to the home was NOT safe. It is basically a washed out, rut filled, rock, dirt, mud road. When the road/driveway is dry, a 4 wheel drive with clearance and some nerve is required. On our stay, it snowed on day two which made very unsafe to drive. We parked at the 1st of 2 hairpin turns and walked the rest of the way (about 200 yards) for the rest of our stay. I do not recommend renting this home outside of the summer months unless you do not mind walking the final 200 yards to the house.

love the location!

the remote location was perfect for us. humble suggestion is to rent 4x4. i went back to den and exchanged our car. More comfortable and plenty of off road trails. owner recommendations for outdoor activities are spot-on. especially st. mary's glacier. we did all he suggested and were not disappointed. went back twice. the home was fully stocked; i mean with everything. lol. and that was awesome. living room, balcony - where we spent most of our time (hummingbirds were so cool) was comfortable and well appointed. the nephews room(s) were nice however the bed - which extended into a closet was unexpected. bathrooms are nice but a little compact. as well they felt (19/17 years old nephews) the 2nd bathroom could have used a more thorough scrubbing. i concur. overall great experience. the owner was nice and sent us bear pictures.

About the host

Hosted by Leslie Hager

Host profile image
My husband and I split our time between this home in Colorado and a home in Houston, where two of our children live. We are both professionals and enjoy the peace and tranquility of this amazing retreat.

Why they chose this property

When we were choosing a property, we wanted to live halfway between Lakewood and the ski slopes. This home was easily accessible from the highway and remote enough to provide the rest and relaxation we wanted.

What makes this property unique

The home is remote but within a few minutes of I-70. It is located in Arapahoe National Forest, so there are no neighbors nearby. The views are better than any we had ever seen. The town of Idaho Springs is 6 miles away and has a grocery store, bars, restaurants, parks, and a gold mine that is now open for tours. There is also a glacier approximately 6 miles away, where you can enjoy hiking, sledding, and snow shoeing.
