About this property

Hideaway tucked away in the San Juan Mts of Southwestern Colorado - Sleeps 8

Attention Winter Guests: San Juan Getaway is now available for booking during the Winter Season!!

Please be advised that during these heavy snowfall months, you will need to make arrangements for snowmobile or side by side travel to and from the cabin to the winter parking lot where you must park your vehicle during your stay. The winter parking lot is located at the top of the Alpine Plateau Road.

This beautiful cedar cabin is located on a one acre wooded lot in Arrowhead Subdivision in the heart of the San Juan Mountain Range of the Colorado Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 9300 feet. All utilities are underground so none of the fantastic views are marred by power lines. The home rests in a clearing at the center of the lot in order to maximize views. The rest of the property is set in a combination of majestic dark timber and quaking aspen.

There are two Master Suites, each with attached full bath.

The completely furnished kitchen and dining room includes pots, pans, standard small appliances and table service for eight. All bed and bath linens are provided, so just bring your groceries and personal care items, such as bath soap and shampoo, to complete your home-away-from-home experience!

Beds are wonderfully comfy and each queen-sized master suite is separated from the other, providing both privacy and an enhanced sense of solitude for our guests. There are also 2 queen-sized beds in the spacious loft with great views of the San Juan Mountains, so the cabin comfortably sleeps 8 guests.

The fireplace in the great room adds both warmth and gracious ambiance. Prop your feet up in the lazy boy chairs and just let your cares melt away. Games and a full library of great books are available to enjoy. There is a smart TV in the great room. Simply sign in to your personal account to access any streaming apps to which you are subscribed. There is also a DVD player available if you wish to bring a favorite movie from home. WI-FI is available also!

Large decks grace the front and back of this home, An outdoor barbecue and dining table are ready for your picnic meals. Please remember to purchase propane for the grill as we are unable to provide it locally.

Great hiking, biking, ATV-ing adventures start right outside the front door. Our guests are provided with a fishing pass for the lakes in the development. Contact Security to have your pass issued. Wildlife is abundant in this rural development. Keep your eyes peeled for elk, deer and birds!

Boat owners can fish Blue Mesa Reservoir (12 miles away) or Silver Jack Reservoir (25 miles away) and bank fishing at both locations is also available.

Don't forget to visit The Arrowhead Mountain Lodge during your stay. The charming decor and meals for those days when you don't feel like cooking are a real treat and the Lodge is right in the neighborhood!

This property has been a second home for us since we completed construction in 2006 and we feel safe saying that you'll find so many interesting things to do that you'll wish you would have booked a longer stay.

Our property manager is available to help with any questions you may have and can be reached at (239) 985-9927. Community security is provided by the HOA and an Arrowhead information booklet is provided at the property with all pertinent information.

We are experienced property owners, having owned a restaurant and mountain lodge and some in-town rental units prior to retiring. We look forward to making your stay unforgettable!

Loved spending Christmas here

We had a great time at the cabin over the Christmas break. Enjoyed all the snow and trails that we went on with our snowmobiles. Cabin was perfect for our family who wanted the experience of snowmobiling into a cabin. Everything was perfect. Thanks for the great stay!

A little off the beaten track which was just what I was looking for! The cabin was clean, well stocked and very comfortable and inviting. The locals are great people! Make sure to visit Arrowhead Mountain Lodge just two miles away for great food, drinks and entertainment. Loved seeing the wildlife everyday! Thanks for a great stay!

Fall getaway

Beautiful home tucked into the mountains. The location is perfect for going sight seeing in a broad range of southwestern Colorado. I would recommend having food with you when you arrive, the closest grocery store is 30-45 minutes away.

Beat the Heat

Very nice accommodations for sleeping. Cabin lighting should be improved. Pedestal tubs a little dangerous for elderly and not accessible for handicapped. Driveway leading down to cabin is short but very rocky. Those were the only down sides, otherwise it was what we expected. We would lease it again.

Very nice cabin in a pleasant, quiet and beautiful development.

The cabin was very nice, well designed and quiet. Very spacious and had every amenity that we needed. Two things to keep in mind about this place are the showers/bathtubs are above average in height. I'm fairly mobile and it took some care to get in and out. Someone with mobility restrictions might struggle with safely entering and exiting the shower. The other thing to consider is getting to the cabin from Hwy 50 is the most convenient option. We came in about 7:45 and found out Hwy 50 closed at 7:00. We had to bribe the highway crew (literally with money) to allow us to travel the 3.5 miles down the closed road or be forced to find an alternative route. With a 20' trailer behind me, I would have found out the hard way in the dark that CR 867 would have been a very bad choice. It is a very pretty drive down to Lake City that way, but the last 3 or so miles have switchbacks that I would most likely not have made with my trailer. The cabin was very nice and as advertised. The only issue was the road closure that worked out eventually, but it could have been disastrous if they didn't let us through. If the road construction and closure would have been communicated to us, we would have been there earlier. Other than that, it is in a very pretty area with lots of mule deer roaming early and late in the day.

Mountain Escape

Although we had to maneuver around road closures on CO 50, we were able to enjoy many adventures both outside and within the property and area. It is secluded which is a big plus in our book. The cabin is well-equipped, and we loved staying warm by the fire as we stargazed. We’d definitely consider staying again if we return to the area.

A trip to remember!

The cabin was wonderful, but I wish to focus on the property owners, Kathleen and Jeffrey. They were fabulous! From our pre-visit messages, to our phone calls while staying at the house, their communication was remarkable! They were very quick to reply, and made sure that we were satisfied that any issue was resolved. Kudos to them and their property! Mike and Chris

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed the house, probably one of the nicer ones I've stayed in. The location was beautiful and felt secluded yet had a restaurant/lodge close by with good food and nice people. Even though it is actually in a small community it seemed like we had the mountain to ourselves. House was clean and had plenty of towels and things to keep kids occupied. We would definitely like to stay there again. We took the back way out towards Lake City. We saw deer, elk, and other wildlife. That's what the family wants to do while in Colorado so they were happy.

Peaceful cabin in the mountains

We truly enjoyed our stay at this secluded cabin. It was clean, spacious and furnished with everything you needed for your stay. The manager was responsive when I had questions. The only negative I had was the road construction that was happening on Hwy 50, which is of no fault to the owners. Loved our first trip to Colorado 🏔

Great cabin wish we knew about the highway closers.

We absolutely loved the cabin. We loved the community. We loved the different things on the property. We loved having a trail right there to take us to Lake City. But with not knowing about the construction closing the highway we came back from trails the highway was closed and had to drive back to Montrose to get a hotel. I had to call 25 hotels to even find one for that night. We had to pay premium on a hotel. I think there should be a construction schedule at the cabin so people know. We were also thankful the lodge gave us a map of the community and the trails. We left those on the counter for future guest. We would definitely stay at the cabin again just wished we would have known the schedule of the construction.

Arrowhead Retreat

After a rocky start--a great stay. We arrived and the home had not been cleaned following the previous guest's stay due to an accident involving the person responsible for cleaning. Jeff was very quick to help get things arranged to get this rectified late that evening with follow-up the next day to finish up as it would have been a long night to do it all. Things happen and it did not take away from the rest of our stay. We enjoyed the peace and serenity staying here and the opportunities nearby to explore the Alpine Plateau and surrounding area including Lake City. The CODOT roadwork and scheduled closures on US50 did present some logistical problems getting to/from the cabin but we timed our travel to minimize the delays. The house is well furnished with almost everything you'd need and we enjoyed our stay once settled in. If you like remote areas--this is a great choice. If you want choices for nearby places to shop or dine you have to travel a bit (except for the restaurant at nearby Arrowhead Mountain Lodge) . We were here to escape the latter and enjoy the mountain air in the San Juan mountains thus this was a good choice for us. Thank you!

Mountain Air

This was a vary quite peaceful place to spend time with family. The cabin has beautiful views and a fresh scent of pine in the air. The Cabin elevation was about 9500 Feet. We had everything we needed to cook with. It was somewhat clean and neat. We did have an issue with the Hot water heater, and we were told that it would be fixed. The bathtubs may be a little difficult for a person who have mobility issues to get in and out of. CDOT was working on Highway 50 (The Main Road in and out of the location). It was a challenge getting in and out during the Road work on Highway 50. We Would recommend staying at this cabin.

My husband James and I, along with helpful family members and great friends, did most of the finish work on San Juan Getaway. We purchased the lot in 2004 and completed construction in 2006. Our plan is finish the walkout basement to accommodate more guests and incorporate a game room and fitness area. We truly love this home and have spent many a memorable time visiting with family and friends. We look forward to sharing it with our VRBO guests and hope that you too can build memories there!
