Great fire pit with plenty of wood. Good seating arrangement inside to accommodate our group of 5. We enjoyed using the provided kayaks on the lake! It was nice having 2 bathrooms. It was nice having a washer and dryer. For the price per night, it needed to be much cleaner on the inside.
We had a great time! The location right across the lake was gorgeous! Our girls loved being able to walk across the street to the water. Easy access to town and Jeep rentals.

Thanks so much Kailey. We look forward to hosting you again soon!
We loved our stay at this beautiful cabin. There were no surprises when we arrived, everything was exactly as we expected it to be based on the photos and descriptions. This area of the country is absolutely beautiful and if you like the outdoors there is an abundance of things to explore.
This was a great stay! The cabin is located right next to the gorgeous lake! The cabin was perfect for six of us and our kids loved the games and movies left in the house and especially the playground nearby! We loved being outside sitting by the fire! The town was in the perfect distance so overall, it was a great trip!

After nine years of hosting more than 400 guests this is a first: We get docked a star for *lighting.* 😲 During his stay we checked in with Andy almost daily, asking if he needed anything. He never once mentioned lighting, but he did respond (quote) “we just arrived it’s great” on day one and “thank you for the great stay” the morning he checked out. 😊
Loved this cabin! Long time Lake City visitor and probably my most favorite cabin to date. Excellent communication with host, all amenities as described, amazing fire pit, and great location on Lake San Cristobal. We will be back!

Nice mountain cabin...!
Rustic - well kept cabin in the mountains. We had 5 adults on an ATV adventure week riding the Alpine Loop. Comfy accommodations - worked really well for our needs. The black squirrels and humming birds in the yard provided endless entertainment.
Would recommend.

Thanks so much Berrys! Please come back! --Don and Cindy
Property was very adequate for our large party. Cabin very authentic mountain cabin. Enjoyed being so close lake San Cristobal. Kayaks and canoes at cabin. Property close to many sights. Highly recommend
The fire pit was great. We used it often. The kayaks and canoe were also fun to have at our disposal. The fishing was great. I have no complaints. It was a wonderful, relaxing place to stay.
Inside was clean. The outside could use some cleaning up. It wasn’t bad, just the seating area on the porch and the windows could have been cleaner. Overall, it was fantastic. The area was great. The host stayed in touch, making sure everything was well. Would definitely rent again.
We were within walking distance of Lake San Cristobal. The lake had been stocked 2 weeks earlier. We caught rainbow trout nearly every cast.
We were able to drive our side by sides directly to the Alpine Loop and Lake City.
Cabin is PERFECT in everyway!!!!
Everything from 2 Grills -Charcoal/Propane!!!
Kayaks, and Canoe to relax in after a long day of riding!!
Perfectly located across the street from
Lake San Cristobal!!! (Mountain Views are spectacular!!!
Fishing Poles provided for fishing, Playground for the kids
Perfectly located on Alpine Loop!!! What more can you ask for!
Its a Little Slice of Heaven on Earth!!!
Will be back next year!!
Don and Cyndi are the most gracious host. They were very accommodating to our family and their communication is probably the best we’ve seen amongst all of our vacation rentals we’ve ever had. Their property sits on what is arguably the most beautiful place in the Lake City area. Just outside of your window you can see Lake San Cristobal. The home is very well kept very well stocked and provides so many things that you wouldn’t think you needed! They go above and beyond to ensure that you not only have a comfortable but fun stay.

Great Family Getaway
The De Loach cabin was a great place for our family get together. The cabin has a beautiful setting with a view of the lake, and a great fire pit for those evening campfires! The cabin is very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. We were able to ride our ATV's from the cabin and explore all the fantastic trails, and show off some of Colorado's beauty to our family from PA. There are some 14'ers to climb, a couple of which are not technical and are worth trying, the view are incredible from the top! I would highly recommend this cabin for those heading to Lake City. Pictures cannot describe the beauty of Lake San Cristobal in the morning as the sun rises.

About the host
Hosted by Don and Cindy DeLoach
The DeLoach family (Cindy, Don and Skilly) welcome you to Lake City. We are Colorado Springs residents (since 1998) and are third generation Lake City vacationers. We are avid travelers around the mountain towns of Colorado and honestly believe there's no better place than Lake City to spend your family vacation.
Why they chose this property
The DeLoach Cabin is a step back in time with a firm foot in the present. Steeped in mountain lodge character that predates modern, cookie-cutter rental homes, our cabin combines the best of modern roominess and convenience with rustic features. We've stayed in many older cabins in Lake City and none have this combination of location, roominess and authentic character.
What makes this property unique
Ideally located just 100 feet from Lake San Cristobal and 1/3 mile from the Alpine Loop Scenic byway, Lakeview Estates is covenanted community that is unusually quiet and peaceful. Its just a three-mile drive or bike on paved roads to shops and restaurants in the town of Lake City, an internationally famous Historic District. Our cabin epitomizes the idyllic family vacation in the most remote and beautiful county in the lower 48.
