The best stay for a holiday weekend!

On a busy holiday weekend when all the campgrounds were packed, this lovely cabin on the water was the perfect private getwaway! The privacy was absolutely unbeatable for the location. And to bring the dog along was a huge bonus! We would love to come back!

Great location and amenities!

We travel to wolf creek every year with the kids and this was one of the best places we’ve stayed and will likely book again next time we visit! Location is great and the home had the perfect amount of space and amenities for us and our 3 kids. I would recommend it!

AWESOME!

This cabin had the best view of the river. We could sit in the hot tub and watch/hear the hummingbirds and the river. Our son caught a good trout right our front. We loved every minute of our stay!

Great Place

We loved the place. Great location and scenery. Only problem was there was Geese poop all over the place as geese have made their home on the pond there. With that being said, not much the owners can do about that. Certainly would come back again.

Family vacay

We drove to CO to enjoy fall foliage. Spent 4 days in your cabin on a river. Cabin was clean and comfortable, stocked with what we needed. We did have an issue with the hot tub - it wasn’t ready when we arrived. Contacted the company, they tried twice to fix the problem, without success, but discounted our visit to compensate

River Access is Great

This property was a great getaway from the city life. The hot tub next to the river was perfect in the evening. The check-in process was delayed even after trying to check in early. This cabin does not provide items such as coffee, spices, etc. The mattress and bedding are very dated and used. It was an overall Great location!

30th Anniversary Trip

Loved this place! Didn't realize it was part of a group of rental cabins, but we never felt like we were intruded upon or like we were in a subdivision. Property was even nicer than the pictures showed. Trout pond has no fish as of now. but might be stocked later. Caught no fish in the river, but I know they must be in there. Hot tub was always clean, and it is a BEAUTIFUL place!! We plan to come back!!
