This was the perfect location for climbing Mount Elbert, and very close to Leadville and Twin Lakes - but still had a remote feel. It was very clean, cozy and comfortable. We will definitely stay there again.
We very much appreciated the silence. We had some great hikes. Everything was wonderful. We are going back. Some people might mind the very tight circular stairs but they weren’t a problem for us.

Thanks for the kind review, David. Look forward to hosting you again.
Beautiful location and property. My wife and our two boys loved our stay. Living room was a bit small for four adults but we made it work. No regrets. Loved it!
This property was very nice. We have three boys who loved playing on the tennis court and exploring the woods in the backyard. Nice secluded location so no one around to bother you. Leadville was close by but it’s kind of a different town. Overall it was a place I’d go back to.
Our family really enjoyed the time away from Denver in a quiet and unique chalet. Located in a perfect and private location in Leadville, very convenient to all the activities & attractions. The place had everything for cook, entertain and relax. Beautiful views all around. Come with an expectation to be cold and walking through thick snow if you come in winter.
Need to unplug and get away from it all? While there is high speed internet, it was great to just relax at the fire pit, see wildlife, and enjoy exploring the property. The kitchen had all the tools that allowed us to prepare some great meals. David had a great recommendation for Treeline Kitchen for a great restaurant in Leadville.
Easy check in, owner was very nice and easy to get ahold of. Parking is a little hard if you have a large trailer like we did but it's not impossible. Beds were actually some of the best we've had. We didn't use the sauna.
We went to the chalet for my boyfriend's birthday which was the day before Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving. My boyfriend ended up having to work way later than planned and unfortunately by the time we ended up getting up there Wednesday it was 10:30 PM or so and even though it was dark, we easily found the property and it was well lit. The spiral staircases are the highlight of the home! So adorable! I loved the whole stay and and we are definitely planning to go back again soon.
Excellent location, comfortable place, with a well-stocked full kitchen and nice communal living room space. Our group used this cabin as a home base for crewing, pacing, or running the Leadville Trail 100. Driveway could fit 4 cars no problem, decent cell service, and location was close to the race start/finish, aid stations, and shuttle locations. Only downside of this place might be that the hardwood in the upstairs bedroom makes it more challenging to be quiet while other people are sleeping downstairs. But overall convenient and comfortable!
Great place to stay just outside Leadville. We loved that this place was a bit removed from town. It was so quiet and relaxing, but still close enough to everything we wanted to do. 30-45 minute drive to Copper mountain with zero traffic. Plenty to check out close by.
The property had everything we needed. They even had snow shoes and cross country skis to try out. I tried the snow shoes, but my heavy frame and 2-3 feet of snow was just too much to overcome. But I still had fun.
We're already talking about coming back in the summer to check out all the hiking trails and lakes.
My family (Wife, 20 ,17 year old "kids" ) loved this place. Awesome property to hike around and explore up the hill to a little stream and more. So close to all of the Leadville activities but still out in the woods. We did ATV'ing, Paddleboards at Twin Lakes, Hiked up above Turquise Lake (Haggerman Trail), golfed at Mt. Massive course and hiked the little nature trail at the nearby (2 mintues away) fish hatchery. Inside of property is very cool. Fit our family perfect but was "cozy", which was good! Very well stocked kitchen as we cooked there 3 nights and spent one in town. We ate at the Tennessee Pass Cafe in town. I would recommend it! Large menu with tons of options in a cool old building, or you could sit outside. The deck overlooks the other house that is getting worked on by the road but didn't ruin the view and ambience of the mountains. I could sit there all day. Overall a great place to stay near Leadville. We usually move around different towns and places in Colorado but would stay there again for sure if near Leadville. Highly recommend!
What a view! We stayed just 2 nights so that we could ski at Ski Cooper. Our group consisted of 4 adults of 55+ The home is located on 30 acres of tree-covered property. Gorgeous snow-covered views! The home offers a very spacious sauna that we took full advantage of. The kitchen is very well equipped. The beds were very comfortable as well, and the bathrooms were updated and well outfitted. A few things to note...If you have difficulty climbing stairs or are a hefty or really tall person you will not be able to use the upper-level bedroom because of the narrow spiral staircase (although very unique). Also, if you go in the winter, it may be difficult walking to the chalet from your car if you have any physical limitations as you can't park extememely close to the home. But this didn't affect our group. We really enjoyed our stay and wished we were able to stay longer. We would definitely come back again!
We enjoyed the home very much. After a long day of hunting and being cold to the bone. It was satisfying to come to a sauna with clear cedar wood and bring the cold to the bone chill back to warmth. Thank you very much.
We are lowlanders from the east coast who needed a quiet secluded location close to hiking and a reasonable drive from the tourist part of Colorado. This location fit the bill 100%. We were 2 hours from Denver, Colorado Springs, and Glenwood springs. There was also plenty to keep us busy right near Leadville. The property owner was spot on with his description of the property and he had plenty of suggestions for local activities to keep us occupied. The beds were super comfortable, we did not take advantage of the sauna due to my wife expecting but it was a great added touch.
Loved our visit! The cabin has great amenities and is in a cozy, quiet and secluded area. After full days of hiking the kitchen was clean and easy to navigate, amenities of shower and bathroom were excellent and the beds were like a five star hotel. The Leadville area is full of life with plenty to do. Thank you!
This place was perfect and as advertised. Perfect scenery, perfect house. Very quiet, but close to a lot of things. Would definitely recommend.

New to VRBO, we recently purchased this beautiful property. We have lived in Colorado much of our lives and love to ski, hike, bike, travel and enjoy the outdoors.
Why they chose this property
Leadville is a rising star in Colorado - not too commercial yet, what the 'real' Colorado is like. This property features an endless forest (our property is 30+ acres) and possibility to escape the hustle and bustle of any city.
Fresh air in a well-designed mountain chalet!
What makes this property unique
World's highest known private platform tennis court?! Sauna!? Chance to get lost in the forest!? Count me in!
