Built in 2010, The Cabin at Trout Creek offers you an amazing family getaway or small group retreat. Set on 3 1/2 acres with over a million acres of San Isabel National Forest out the front door, this 3000 ft2 cabin offers its guests peace and seclusion yet easy access to nearly unlimited outdoor activities only minutes away. With views in every direction, the cabin has been designed to match the beauty of the creation that surrounds it.
The decor is rustic, yet beautiful, with a distinct mountain feel. Down to the smallest detail, much thought has been given to create an ideal setting for a family vacation or small group getaway. From luxurious towels to fun, built in bunk beds the kids will love, you will find the cabin has everything you need and so much more. Enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee on our 600 ft2 deck or walk to San Isabel National Forest. After a day of activity, come back and enjoy a board game in front of the stone gas fireplace, read a book in the loft, or choose to watch a HD movie from our huge selection of DVDs. The cabin is intentionally designed to be big enough to vacation with Grandma and Grandpa or another family, yet not too big if you are a small family on a summer getaway.
If you want to get out and explore the area, you will find there are more things to do than you have time for! Buena Vista is home to the Arkansas River, providing world-class whitewater rafting and fly fishing. It also hosts the largest concentration of 14,000+ foot mountains in Colorado, offering spectacular scenery and endless outdoor activity (hiking, horseback riding, ATV and bike rentals, etc.). The lively town of Buena Vista is only 15 minutes away and offers many activities, restaurants, and shops.

Great time with Family in this great 4 BR Mountain Getaway
Our whole family was very impressed with this 4 BR Mountain Getaway. There was enough space for everyone to kick back and relax. The beds where very comfortable and the view were awesome.
We stayed for a weekend and found the property to be exactly what we were hoping for. Great views, quiet, and not too far from Buena Vista. Highly recommend staying here.
Had a fantastic time with my boys, brother and father. We did white water rafting down the Arkansas river and hiking in BV. Scenery around the cabin is beautiful!!!
It was a beautiful cabin facing a lovely valley. It was peaceful and we felt very safe. The cabin is lovely, it was clean and the host was so accommodating. It was a wonderful weekend get away. We are saving the information for this property to rent it again.
My family, my brother’s family, and our parents met here and enjoyed our week. It takes about 20 - 25 minutes to drive into Buena Vista from here. The view from the house is lovely, and there were deer all over the property. The kitchens and bathrooms were well equipped, and there was plenty of space for our group!
This is our 2nd stay at this lovely property! It accomodates our family so well. Quiet, warm, welcoming and perfect for gatherings. We all enjoyed our stay, and Judy is GREAT at communication. We would highly recommend this property.

About the host
Hosted by Judy Halmrast
Although Minnesota is our first home, we have found that our hearts have been drawn to the openness and beauty of the Colorado Rockies over the years. To build and own a cabin in one of the most beautiful places on earth truly is a blessing--a blessing we want to share with others, as well. So much of who we are--our personalities, values, priorities--are reflected in this cabin. Our goal has been to create a place that not only provides peace and relaxation, but that inspires its guests to connect with family and friends, with God and His creation.
Why they chose this property
The area in and around Buena Vista is amazing--the scenery is spectacular and the activities available are virtually unlimited. Our cabin is only 15 minutes from town which allows easy access to restaurants and shopping, yet offers us the quiet and beauty of a mountain getaway that is so important to us.
What makes this property unique
As we built this cabin, we have been very intentional about everything from the location of the land purchased to the smallest detail in decorating each room. For both us and our guests we want the cabin to be a place that has everything we need to either tuck in for a few days without driving anywhere or be a homebase for an activity filled vacation. Rest, beauty, refreshment--that's what we find at the cabin. We hope that you will to.
