We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful, secluded cabin! The setting was amazing, surrounded by gorgeous trees and nestled right next to a stunning rock cliff. The decor and color choices were beautiful, giving the cabin such a cozy, warm, and inviting feel. One of our favorite experiences was relaxing in the hot tub at night and enjoying the incredible stargazing. It was the perfect place to unwind, disconnect, and feel immersed in nature. We would definitely love to stay here again!

The home is perfect for spending time on the Taylor River. It was my misunderstanding that the river was across the hwy but the small stream in the backyard was beautiful. We had a bald eagle visit every morning and perch on the pine at the top of the cliffs! Very smooth process and with no issues

Late Fall Stay 2023

The property was exactly what we needed while we hung out in Taylor Park / Gunnison. Three adults shared the house, which was just the right size for our needs as we were able to spread out our gear and able to eat together. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. Overall it was a great property.

Nice place but not perfect.

Very nice but could be better. No microwave or coffee pot, just toaster oven and French press. Room could easily be made for each. Also, in the upstairs bedroom, a chair or two with reading light could easily be added to help with dressing and reading. Note to Seniors: Kitchen and master bedroom are accessible only by climbing up 17 step stairs.

What a beautiful property!

We had a wonderful stay in this cozy space. The property in warmer months is absolutely stunning. We played lawn games, relaxed in the wooded area and made good use of the very clean hot tub (hot tub cleanliness can be a challenge at most rentals). The indoor space worked well for just the two of us. The only notes I would say is the lower areas of the home (laundry room and sitting/bunk bed area) don’t smell the best so we tried not to spend much time there. The bed in the main upstairs bedroom was very low to the ground and not very comfortable. That said, we will absolutely stay here again and I’d recommend it to anyone. The location is perfect to see the “real Colorado” because that area is among the most beautiful in the state!

Perfect get-away spot

This little cabin is surrounded by a bubbling stream, trees, and gorgeous rocks. It is the perfect spot for relaxation, hiking adventures, rafting, fishing and anything in between. We did it all, soaked up every minute and fell asleep to the sound of the stream every night. Located just between Crested Butte and Gunnison we had access to anything we wanted and could also be as secluded as we wanted. It was the perfect family get away spot! Beth was a wonderful communicator and host. The house was as pictured - very clean and welcoming. Clear details about the house and surrounding area were neatly printed in a binder awaiting us when we arrived. We didn't have cell service (we didn't miss it) but wifi was provided. Mostly we enjoyed being unplugged from electronics and instead plugged in and recharged by the creation and relationship around us. Pick Freedom of the Hill for your next CO adventure, you won't regret it! Beth - we'll be back :)

Great location and beautiful surroundings

We were traveling throughout Colorado in our RV but stayed here for two nights to celebrate our anniversary. It was a great place to do so, quiet and secluded enough for privacy. There is a lot to do in the area as well. This was our first time using VRBO and I was a little surprised at how the additional costs can add up so be aware of this whenever looking to rent any place. Overall a very nice experience and would recommend this property.

Backyard Paradise

The property was great for our young family. Our 5 and 3 year olds loved running around in the yard and playing in the hammock. The stream running through the yard with tons of fish was great to watch and listen to. Everyone liked getting in the hot tub for a relaxing time before dinner. We could have just stayed in and saved ourself the trouble of loading up the car for excursions up the road. We loved it!

Amazing!

What a fantastic cabin! We were in the area for a wedding in a Gunnison and couldn’t have been happier with staying in Almont. The surrounding area is beautiful, as is this property itself; the creek side-sounds, the rocky cliff sides, the gorgeous night sky, etc. There is such great attention to detail in the cabin- so cozy, warm and welcoming! We explored the towns of Almont and Gunnison, and were able to check out Black Canyon National Park- incredible! The owners responded quickly to any questions we had and provided great info about actives in the area. We highly recommend this cabin, and would love to stay again ourselves!

A perfect mountain escape!

This cabin was so charming and comfortable and the property it sits on is surreal. We soaked in every detail! The craggy rocks that frame the property are beautiful and the backyard is spacious and perfect for morning coffee and doggy playtime. We did a lot of cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and had all the items we needed. The double-head shower was pretty cool and I appreciated all the extra towels and toiletries provided. I loved the privacy of this property and would love to come back for a longer stay. 2 nights weren't enough! Thank you for a truly unique experience!
