About this property

Modern Mountain Cabin - Great Location - Dogs OK

Come and enjoy this unique modern cabin with 2 bedrooms and a sweet deck overlooking the valley. Dog friendly! 2 DOG MAXIMUM - $40 per night pet fee (not per dog) plus deposit. This is a 100% NON-SMOKING property - inside and out (no tobacco, vape or marijuana). Close to everything, just off the Peak to Peak Hwy 119 but it feels secluded. Walking distance to the liquor store and Roy's Last Shot Saloon. Enjoy time on the deck around the fire table and cook your favorite meals on the grill. Mountain bike or hike at one of the many nearby trails or State Parks. Eldora ski resort is 20 minutes away. Great river fishing spots in nearby Rollinsville or Golden Gate Canyon State Park. Nederland is just 7 miles away where you can get groceries, dine, shop and enjoy pizza, ice cream or cocktails. Historic Gambling towns, Black Hawk and Central City are less than 20 minutes away in the other direction. Loveland, Summit County, Boulder, Idaho Springs and Estes Park are also very close. Snuggle up in front of the fireplace in the cozy living room to watch a movie on the large flat screen Smart TV, play games or read a book. Both bedrooms also have Smart TVs. Plenty of parking. Free WIFI. Minimum age to book is 25 years old. *WIFI and Streaming services can be spotty and slow due to Mtn internet services. This property is not ideal for children under 10. If you plan to bring a dog(s) be sure to select the Pet option when you inquire so that it will include the daily fee. There is no washer/dryer onsite but there are nearby laundromats. All wheel drive or 4x4 is recommended during the winter months because driveway is long and plows may be delayed.

Exactly as Advertised

This cabin is precisely as advertised, which is a rarity. Beautifully renovated/modernized cabin, inside and out, with all the amenities you could want. Everything was fully functional-no glitches-and very clean, cleaner than cabins that didn’t permit dogs. The owner was very thorough in providing all the information needed for a carefree stay.

Perfect Mountain Cabin

Beautifully renovated cabin with everything you need. I have used VRBO for a long time and this was by-far the best place that Ive stayed.We got a lot of snow, so we didnt get to use the outside patio area.I was able to cook a wonderful meal in the kitchen, as everything I needed was there.We had one small issue with the door/lock, and the host was able to fix the situation in a matter of minutes. Im already planning to stay here again.

Great mountain getaway

The owner was very responsive both prior to and during our stay. We had a wonderful time hiking some of the local trails. The cabin was perfect! Some of our group went to the local casinos, which are very convenient.

Home away from home

When I travel to hike I like to be able to cook my own meals, rest on a decent mattress, relax in an outdoor space, and feel like I am in a clean environment. This lovely cabin checked all those boxes for me. The host is very kind, attentive and helpful.

Relaxing get away

We enjoyed our stay at Frankie’s Cabin so much! The isolation was sweet and the cabin was so comfortable! We enjoyed the humming birds and the cool, clear weather. We drove twice to Nederland, esp enjoying the stream side park with quiet walking paths! What a scenic little mountain town. The kitchen was so well stocked and fun to cook in. The entire cabin was spotless, beautifully decorated, and so comfortable! The only down sides of our visit were that neighbors behind the cabin were really loud for awhile two of our four nights there and the lack of a really good breakfast restaurant nearby. Nederland’s grocery store is convenient and well stocked although fresh produce is limited.

Incredible cabin on the mountain

We had the most delightful stay in this lovely home. Coming from such a long distance, it was reassuring to have a host that was quick to communicate and answer any question we may have asked. The home was immaculate! The decor was darling. We had everything we needed in the most cozy atmosphere we could have imagined. Even though it was chilly in the morning, we couldn’t be stopped from enjoying our morning coffee on the lovely deck watching and listening to the hummingbirds flitting about near the bird feeders.

Unable to Stay - Issues with Access

I am leaving a 1-star review because we were unable to stay at this cabin due to access issues. Based on other reviews, this seems to be an isolated incident, but I still wanted to share my experience. We were notified that the batteries for the keypad were likely dead and instructed to use the lockbox for the spare key. We retrieved the key, but after trying to enter for 30 minutes, we had to contact Kelli. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our stay as there was no other spare key available to us. This put us in a difficult situation trying to find somewhere to stay after 6PM; however, Kelli promptly refunded our stay.

Great Getaway

We were looking for a place to get out of the city for a few days and found it in this cabin. It was just what we were looking for and matched the description online very well. The cabin was super clean, cozy, and comfortable. Thought went into every detail of the place. There is probably no end to the things you can do in that area. Kelli was super efficient in her online communications and provided very helpful information about the cabin. It felt that she was very available to us. She went above and beyond to help us get my keys back, which we had forgotten to grab before leaving. Great place!

We Are Coming Back!

This cabin was exactly as described and was the perfect getaway for our anniversary trip. My husband and I loved how cozy and adorable the cabin was. We really enjoyed sitting by the fire pit in the evenings. The host, Kelli, was great! She communicated well with us, and was incredibly flexible with us when we wanted to extend our stay! We are not pet owners ourselves, and we knew the cabin was dog friendly, but one of the things we noted was some dog hair. Also, the neighbors were very loud all hours of the day and night- however, this cannot be attributed to our host at all. We plan to visit again in the future!!

About the host

Hosted by Kelli Nicholson

Host profile image
I'm a Colorado Native and love the process of creating beautiful, comfortable and welcoming spaces. I've always dreamed of having a cabin in the mountains and getting the opportunity to share it with others.

Why they chose this property

The cabin sits back off the road and overlooks the valley. It feels like you are secluded but you have modern conveniences close by and it's so easy to get to the main road. It is conveniently located just an hour away from Denver and 30 minutes from Boulder and close to many State Parks and trails. Hiking, mountain biking, gambling, skiing, dining and fishing are all close by.

What makes this property unique

The unique modern design is like no other but still feels very cozy and rustic. The home was originally built as a summer cabin by Denver residents in the 1950's.
