Great location with beautiful views and direct access to fishing. We walked up to the St Mary’s Glacier hike which was beautiful. The deck was great with plenty of places to take in the lake. The bunk room is directly off the front door in a chilly lower level which might be less desirable for smaller kids. The bathrooms and kitchen are okay but rustic and the kitchen is a bit sparse if you plan to do any cooking.

We had a truly wonderful stay in Idaho Springs. The location is absolutely exceptional — peaceful, surrounded by nature, and the perfect place to relax, recharge, and enjoy some quiet time.The accommodation was very clean and comfortable, and we felt at home from the beginning. A very special highlight was our last morning: while having breakfast on the patio, we were lucky enough to watch a moose with her calf nearby — an unforgettable experience!The only thing that disappointed us was that neither the whirl pool nor the paddle board mentioned in the listing were available. We would recommend updating the description for future guests so expectations are clear.Apart from that, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend this beautiful and peaceful place.

The house was spacious and comfortable. Views of the lake & mountains were nothing short of amazing. We felt lucky to get some snow during our stay as well! Will stay again.

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Dreamcatcher. The kids all hiked to St. Mary’s Glacier and such a good time. We were just sorry we were not there longer. The view was outstanding, and even the rain did not hinder the beauty. We would stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay! The property is spacious, clean, and offers beautiful views. The trail access to St. Mary’s Glacier is a huge bonus, and the backyard access to the lake made it even better. Communication with Mary was excellent—quick, helpful, and friendly. Highly recommend!

Great stay

Loved the cabin in all ways. The only thing is that the road off the highway to the property is about 25 min and can take a while if there’s snow/ice on the road.

Gorgeous cabin/incredible location

Wow! This large rustic cabin is truly one of a kind. The setting and location are out of this world. The cabin was private, cozy and very comfortable for our party of 4 adults. We loved bbq-ing all of our meals on the deck. This place is magical.

The view of the lake was spectacular. We loved the wood burning stove and cozy space for the family to all hang out together. Lots of pots and kitchen utensils. We hiked to st Mary’s glacier and even saw people ice fishing on the lake next to the house. The drive off of route 70 is about 25 minutes but worth it when you get to the house at the top.

Amazing views!

We loved this cabin on the lake! The enormous deck offered the most beautiful views of the lake and mountains. The house was very clean and cozy. Huge bonus was being within a short walk to the trail for St Mary’s Glacier. Definitely recommend this home!

Amazing mountain home

This property is amazing. We went up during a snow storm and it was absolutely beautiful. The view off the patio and across the lake is perfect. Karen was so fast to respond when we had questions. I would love to stay in this property again during the summer! The roads were also plowed every morning which made getting out much easier than we expected! I highly recommend this place.

Wonderful Mountain Vacation

We had an amazing stay at Dreamcatcher! This was our family’s first trip out to Colorado and this property was perfect. Our group was 3 adults and 2 teenagers. The property had everything we needed, beds were very comfortable and the house is clean .The views from the house are breathtaking, we even got to see a mama moose and her calf at the lake! We took daily walks up to the glacier and did the white water rafting in town, which was a lot of fun. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for sharing this amazing property!

August trip 2020

The deck was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed sitting out on deck at all times throughout the day/night. Fishing was great! The property does have two rods for use. St. Mary’s Glacier hike’s trailhead was a small walk from the cabin. Great hike...definitely worth it. Make sure to take a picnic lunch and enjoy the time out there! Beauty was completely unexpected!

Fabulous view and location. Great for my girls group. Loved being able to hike the St. Mary's Glacier trail from the house. Beds were comfortable and towels were good quality and appeared to be new. Dishwasher worked well as did washer and dryer. Pots, pans, and silverware need to be replaced. The fridge does not have an icemaker and there were no ice cube trays when we were there. Any easy fix for the owner.

Weekend Retreat

This was a beautiful house to stay in. Everything was nice and clean and we were able to relax. It was very challenging to get to and from (up a steep mountain and very snowy) even with a four wheeled drive car. Also, the video showed a hot tub, but there was no hot tub. We were very excited for this feature and were a bit caught off guard when there was not one. It was also a nice distance from St. Mary’s glacier which was convenient. I would absolutely recommend staying here!

Beautiful and Quiet

The home offered plenty of room for our family of 7. The hike to St. Mary's Glacier was a workout but the payoff was amazing! The deck was enormous and the view of the lake was peaceful and gorgeous. It was a long drive up and down the mountain but we knew that and planned activities accordingly. We could not find a broom or mop for the floors, and there was no dish rag for wiping down counters and the table when we finished cooking and eating. Paper towels don't do a sufficient job. I felt the only downfall was communication with the host. Response time to emails was lacking (usually 24 hours ... too long) and not all questions were answered. Overall, we enjoyed the property.
