The cabin is in a great location, very accommodating staff and plenty of room. It could afford some upgrades and only one bathroom is not ideal, but we only did one night, so it worked for us!

The house was very nice. The host left a nice gift basket. We had a little trouble getting in initially but the host helped resolve it and did what he could to make things right.

About the host

Host profile image
We are longtime Breckenridge fans, having spent our honeymoon here over 30 years ago. Although we grew up in the Midwest, Colorado stole our hearts many years ago. Spending time in the mountains never gets old for us! We purchased this home and decided immediately that it had to be shared with friends and family... and The Velvet Moose was born. Why the Velvet Moose? The day we toured the property for the first time, we saw 9 moose on and around the property! Their quirky, graceful stature immediately captured the theme we wanted the house to evoke. Our hope is that you love it here as much as we do and that you return often with family and friends to create lasting memories.
