Property is very well taken care of and managed. I appreciate the instructions in the book as well as the labels on drawers, light switches and notes around. The views are absolutely incredible from behind the cabin, saw one of the most beautiful sunsets I've seen!I was surprised how close to the road the cabin was, as based on the picture I thought it would be more secluded, but not a deal breaker.

Loved the cabin

My husband and I cannot express the joy we had staying in the cabin. We walked the grounds everyday with our dog. The property has unbelievable beauty everywhere you look. David was so fun to meet and speak with. He set up the waterfall for us and that alone gave us happiness with both sound and visual. I would recommend this property to anyone.

Fantastic cabin to escape

This cabin was the perfect getaway for my girlfriend and I over a long weekend. Small and rustic with an incredible ambiance of nature right outside with all of the comforts needed to make full meals and enjoy some time to relax in front of the TV after a hike. Hosts were very attentive and pleasant to communicate with and the property is incredible.

Cozy cabin with spectacular rock features

We found this cabin charming and cozy, with tasteful western décor and lovely wildlife sightings around the waterfall. However, the many posted signs with strongly worded instructions and potential for fines made the atmosphere less relaxing than we look for on a vacation.The listing is advertised as “pet friendly,” but the strict pet rules without providing acceptable alternatives like a dog bed/crate (We asked if these could be provided and were told no) make it difficult for cross-country travelers to comply. Overall it felt more like pets were tolerated than welcomed, which was a much different experience than other pet-friendly rentals we’ve stayed at in the past. Overall, the home is lovely and would be great if you aren’t traveling with pets, but if you are, make sure you read the rules and consider how it may impact your trip.

The place was amazing, exactly like the description. The best part was the waterfall that ran continuously & you could hear it when the windows were open or closed. The only thing that we didn’t like no description as to how to open the shades in the front of the house. Beautiful place and rocks were majestic.

Wonderful Cabin in Pristene area!

We stayed at the cabin for Thanksgiving with our pup and truly enjoyed it! The area is magnificent for hiking, exploring, seeing the beauty of the mountains in that area. The cabin itself is gorgeous, very comfortable bed and furnishings, well appointed kitchen. Nice rustic feel for the cabin but super comfortable with all the modern conveniences. Lots of hot water :). Highly recommend it and we will definitely be return renters. Sandy & Jonathan

Special Place

This cabin is all that the pictures show plus! The location is so convenient to many things to do and see. But the cabin in itself is a vacation. The hosts have thought of everything and the lovely western decor is beautiful without being overdone. So many little extras to enjoy. Furniture is cozy and comfortable, kitchen is perfect. The waterfall makes for great sleeping. We loved it.

About the host

Hosted by Sweet Retreats

Host profile image
We grew up in Pennsylvania and New York State, but loved to take vacations in the West. In 2003 , we moved to the beautiful state of Colorado. We love the mountains, the Pines and the fresh air. It's like heaven on earth.

Why they chose this property

This is a very unique piece of property because of the landscape and beautiful landmark rock formations. It calls you to explore and imagine.

What makes this property unique

We love the Western culture and our Cabin is filled with decor from the West that takes you back to what the great American West is all about. From the Leather living room furniture to the rustic wood furniture and floors, we didn't cut corners decorating in a way that is appealing to both women and men. A taste of authentic western style. You'll enjoy hiking around the property and through the unique Pikes Peak granite rock formations. At this time we ask that you do not climb up to the very top. We are not responsible for falls, injuries or worse. There are great views of Pikes Peak from several places on the property.
