About this property
Stay in the Rockies 1.3 miles to I-70 .5 Miles to Hotsprings 25 mins to Redrocks
Enjoying privacy and wildlife (property is surrounded by national forest) in the Rocky Mountains while being only 25 minutes from Red Rocks Amphitheater and Golden, Colorado. Breckenridge, a popular mountain town, is an hour away while travelling west on I-70.
Beds are equipped with brand name quality mattresses, duvet covers, and quality sheets. We pride ourselves in providing luxurious sleeping conditions for our guests. Quality sleep is a priority and necessity to ensure an enjoyable vacation.
Wi-Fi is provided and very reliable at 300mgps. Provided streaming apps include netflix, amazon prime, and hbo on all televisions. There is a washer and dryer available to guests in the basement.
The front door leads into the kitchen / living room. This large room contains a wood burning stove, baseboard heater, heatstorm 1500 btu heater, Bluetooth POLK sound bar with a subwoofer, and a smart tv on an adjustable mount.
The kitchen provides a 5-gallon water dispenser, a reverse osmosis system for drinking water, and a large 6’ x 4’ concrete kitchen island. Fully stocked with a wide array of appliances, kitchen essentials, spices, etc.
This space is perfect for entertaining.
From the front deck, wildlife can be seen across the valley, early in the morning and in the evening. The hummingbirds are very active from May - August. Occasionally, deer, fox, owls, and bear have been seen on this property. Most months of the year, the babbling creek of soda creek road is heard from the deck.
There are two entrances to the cabin off the 400 square foot deck. The deck wraps around the Cabin from the front door, to the side yard. Off the back deck is a large grassy area, a propane grill, and a barrel sauna.
The master bedroom has a walk in closet and private bath with a king bed. Room/bath amenities include dyson hair dryer, curling iron, ironing board w/ iron, and a full size mirror.
The second bedroom has a queen bed, full size miror, and Roku tv.
The third bedroom has a queen bed, closet, and a Roku television.
Each bedroom / bathroom provides radiant heating controlled by a wall thermostat. Space heaters and standing fans can be found in closets.
The couch, in the kitchen, slides out into a queen-sized bed. There are additional sheets in the linen closet upstairs or in the chase of the couch.
Ask about the old mine that was left behind by the pioneers during the Gold Rush. This can be accessed through the forest at the edge of the property.
The driveway is steep in the beginning but is gradual after that section. There is a large lot at the bottom of the driveway, adjacent with the road. This lot can fit about 3 cars if you are unable to ascend driveway (this only happens in Winter months). Luckily, Idaho Springs does not see as much snow precipitation as nearby mountain towns like breckenridge. AWD or 4WD is a necessity during Winter months.
This location offers a .8-mile drive to Miner Street, in Idaho springs. I-70 is 5 minutes away but cannot be heard from this mountain cabin.
Bask in privacy rarely found without being deep in the Rockies, while being close to many of Colorado's great attractions.

About the host
Hosted by Kody Richardsen

Hosting has came naturally to me as I love to entertain and provide experiences for friends and family. I come from an American-Italian background. My grandparents were entertainers and prided themselves on bring people together with food, fun, and adventure. Being able to provide a comfortable, home away from home, vacation experience for guests has given me a great sense of joy and accomplishment. Every year I aim to improve my property and provide a better experience for guests than the year before. Through hosting and providing the best vacation experience for my guests, I have found my true passion. After all, Rome wasn’t built in a day!
Why they chose this property
Serenity is felt at this property. Perched on the side of a mountain this cabin offers an extremely unique view of the soda creek road cabin. Its hard to find a home that feels so exceptionally secluded but is so close to conveniences like Safeway and I-80. This was originally my home. My goal was to live in the rockies but be close to Denver. Idaho springs is the first town in the rockies while travelling up I-80 from Denver. I thoroughly enjoyed the mining history of Idaho Springs and craved a small town environment. Idaho springs was perfect.
What makes this property unique
There is a wet / dry barrel sauna available to guests in the backyard. A flat backyard while having a view.
