The cabin is exactly what we were looking for, something small for just us and our dog. The view was amazing, watching the sun go down every night and just enjoying outside. We couldn’t have asked for a better find or location.

René is a very responsive host and the property is as described. Very clean and easy to access. She sent excellent driving instructions to the property location. It can be a little warm in the cabin as only the front door and one window open fully with no screens for bugs so the swamp cooler can help lower the temp. René did her best to ensure we were happy with the stay.

This was a very quiet very relaxing place. If you need to get away for quiet time this is your place don’t forget though that Colorado has some crazy weather and you are basically staying in the mountains where anything is possible. I loved this place!!!!

Great little getaway

We loved this cute little cottage. It was so nice watching the sunrise on the porch, and rowing the canoe around the lake. Rene was an excellent hostess and gave great recommendations for hikes, fishing spots, and places to eat. We'll be back again for sure!
