Great location close to downtown Leadville. Great space for the family. Kids loved playing in the outdoor areas. The kitchen is small, like on a yacht, but super well equipped. A very efficient space to produce some memorable meals.
Property was perfectly located near Turquoise Lake. Tons of amenities provided which was really nice. Kitchen is super tiny so not a good choice if you plan to cook a lot. But the rest of the home was comfy for 7 people with plenty of room.
Perfect place near Cooper for a great ski trip with friends, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. I appreciated the heated floors and fireplace. Andrew responded within minutes when we had a question for him.
The home was clean and well cared for. Beautiful inside and out. Decor fit perfect for the setting. Close and convenient to downtown Leadville. The space & location was just what our family needed.Communication with Andrew was great. He always responded in a timely matter and answered all answers.
Very cozy and well appointed. Excellent location for ski Cooper and Copper mtn as well. Just far enough out of town for the nature connection and close enough for quick trips to get things from the stores, restaurants and bakeries. We will use this again for year round excursions from the front range.

Thanks for the nice review, Tony! Glad you had a great time in Leadville.
This cabin is perfect! You are close to town, close to skiing, close to hiking and other activities and you will want for nothing. Our family was very comfortable during our stay and had all the luxuries from home plus more. The owner has definitely paid attention to the details and has included top of the line linens and towels. The instructions were very detailed and there was no confusion during our stay. We will be looking to book again in the future!
Peaceful, relaxing, great place to recharge. I previously stayed in a smaller unit in this development. This unit has much more space and better guest experience details including excellent bed, bedding, towels and TV including full cable and Apple TV.
Our party of 5 adults had a very wonderful 3 nights stay at the Lackawanna Lodge recently on our trip to Ski Cooper. The property is very clean and have sufficient space for all of us. The lodge is very close by to the town of Leadville and Ski Cooper. The host is very responsive to our needs and the property is well managed. It snowed while we were there and someone was always there first thing in the morning to remove snow from the porch and walkway. The gas fire place is a plus and it warms up the cozy cabin. The kitchen is a bit small but it was fine for us since it was a short stay. Will definitely recommend this property for the price.

Why they chose this property
Leadville offers fantastic access to outdoor activities without the crowds or sky-high prices of other Colorado mountain towns.
What makes this property unique
Lackawanna Lodge is nestled in a mature pine forest north of Leadville, giving the property a remote "woodsy" setting. From the front porch, you can admire views of Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive, the two tallest mountains in Colorado. Though you may feel "out there," you will in fact be very close to town and other important destinations. Leadville is just a 5 minute drive away. Ski Cooper is 10 minutes away and Copper Mountain is 30 minutes away. The feeling of remoteness combined with the reality of close proximity to town and services make the property unique.
