Cabin at Sportsman’s Paradise – Angler’s Dream & Mountain Retreat

Welcome to the Cabin at Sportsman’s Paradise, a warm and inviting 3-bedroom log retreat in Lake George. Set against Colorado’s rugged wilderness, this cabin is both an angler’s dream and a family-friendly mountain escape. Whether you’re here to chase trout, unwind on the deck, or make lifelong memories with loved ones, this cabin is the perfect basecamp.



🎣 Fish the Waters Anglers Dream About

From world-renowned rivers to high-mountain lakes, the area surrounding the Cabin at Sportsman’s Paradise offers some of Colorado’s most iconic fisheries:
• The Dream Stream (South Platte between Spinney & Eleven Mile Reservoirs) – Legendary for trophy-sized browns, rainbows, and cutthroats.
• Eleven Mile Canyon – Stunning granite cliffs, crystal-clear tailwater, and epic hatches all year long.
• Tarryall River – Scenic and approachable, ideal for both beginners and seasoned fly fishers.
• Spinney Mountain Reservoir – A nationally known trophy trout lake with monster rainbows and cutbows.
• Eleven Mile Reservoir – Big water producing big fish, including trout and kokanee salmon.
• Antero Reservoir – Shallow, nutrient-rich, and famous for fat, hard-fighting rainbows.
• Tarryall Reservoir – A peaceful canyon setting with a mix of trout species and laid-back charm.

While private fishing within the Sportsman’s Paradise gates isn’t included, you’re just minutes from these world-class waters, making this cabin a true angler’s paradise.



🏡 Cabin Comforts & Family Time

After a day on the water or exploring the mountains, come back to a cabin designed for comfort and connection:
• Rustic wood interiors & a crackling fireplace
• Smart TV with satellite/cable, movies & board games
• Fully equipped kitchen with stove, oven, refrigerator, microwave & coffee maker
• Dining table for meals, game nights & storytelling
• Three welcoming bedrooms with fresh linens
• Bathroom with towels, upgraded amenities & hair dryer
• Central heating for year-round coziness

Step out onto the deck and you’ll discover another highlight: peaceful mountain views and visiting wildlife right in your backyard. Watch deer, elk, and wild turkeys wander past as you sip your morning coffee or gather for an evening under the stars. It’s the perfect setting for relaxation and making unforgettable family memories.



🌲 Adventure Beyond Fishing

The cabin’s location offers much more than fishing:
• Private ATV access into Pike–San Isabel National Forest
• Horseback riding & ATV tours
• Hiking, wildlife watching & rock hounding
• Family-friendly attractions: Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak Railway, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, and Santa’s Workshop at the North Pole



🌄 Cabin at Sportsman’s Paradise: A Place to Return To

Quiet!! Great cabin! Comfortable beds and furniture!No fishing directly on Sportsman’s Paradise property, but direct access (with key to gate) to awesome fishing in Wildcat Canyon. Nearby 11 mile creek also. Everything you need in the kitchen is there(condiments, spices etc). Many little touches to improve convenience.We will come back!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the peaceful setting, comfortable beds and furnishings, and all of the little touches throughout the cabin. We're also happy you enjoyed the incredible fishing opportunities nearby. One of the unique advantages of staying in Sportsman's Paradise is the private gated vehicle access to Wildcat Canyon. While anglers outside the community can reach the canyon, it requires a long, strenuous hike. Our guests can simply drive to the private gate and enjoy much easier access. Because of that limited access, you'll often find far fewer people in the canyon, and many Sportsman's Paradise members consider it one of the best places to catch some of the largest trout in the area. Thank you again for staying with us!

We spent three nights at the cabin. We enjoyed the comfortable couch and recliners in the living room and the deck…the cabin is decorated lovely and equipped with everything you might need…we enjoyed riding the Atv on the national forest trail close to the cabin… the river is quite a ways away from the cabin… disappointing that we could not fish from the river even though we knew that beforehand… There’s a king size bed in one bedroom with only about 18 inches on either side to maneuver yourself out of the room… The second bedroom bed was very uncomfortable, which was disappointing for our adult daughter. there was nowhere to put our groceries so had to leave them in boxes and sacks on the floor…… All in all we had a wonderful family time and we appreciated the chance to be in the mountains for a few days… we appreciated Melissa‘s instant reply to all of our questions and inquiries… She was an excellent hostess!

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for choosing to stay with us. We're so glad you enjoyed the cabin's décor, the deck, the comfortable living room, the nearby ATV trails, and that your family had a wonderful time together. We also appreciate your kind words about our communication—we strive to be responsive and make every guest's stay as enjoyable as possible. We understand that comfort preferences, particularly when it comes to mattresses, can vary from guest to guest. Our cabin is designed to offer a cozy mountain getaway, and we do our best to accurately represent the layout and amenities in our listing so guests know what to expect before booking. For those looking for larger bedrooms or more spacious accommodations, we offer another property that provides an elevated experience with additional amenities, though it comes at a significantly higher nightly rate. Regarding fishing, we make every effort to clearly describe the nearby river access and local fishing opportunities in our listing so guests can plan accordingly before their stay. Thank you again for staying with us. We appreciate your feedback and are happy you were able to make lasting family memories in the mountains. We hope to welcome you back in the future.

Thank you so much for your feedback and for choosing to stay with us! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed your visit and would stay again. We understand the disappointment about not being able to fly fish directly within the property. The 3-mile stretch of the South Platte River that runs through our community is privately maintained and reserved for members only. The HOA invests significantly to stock and preserve this section for conservation and member access. That said, there’s still fantastic fishing all around the area—both fly and spin fishing! Guests can find excellent public access points on the South Platte just minutes away, along with nearby lakes and streams that offer incredible angling opportunities for trout and other species. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope you’ll come back soon to enjoy all the beautiful outdoor recreation the area has to offer!

About the host

Hosted by Adam & Melissa Szychowski

Host profile image
As a Colorado native, I’ve spent a lifetime exploring this incredible state—and I can honestly say that Lake George is one of its best-kept secrets. When we discovered this cozy log cabin tucked near the South Platte River and surrounded by National Forest, we instantly knew it was something truly special.

We love hosting this retreat because it allows us to share that same magic with others. Whether you’re here to cast a line in Gold Medal waters, hike endless trails, take in mountain views, or simply relax on the deck and watch the wildlife wander by, we hope you feel the same peace and joy this cabin has brought to our own family.

Welcome to your home away from home—we’re so glad you’re here, and we can’t wait for you to make unforgettable memories at the Cabin at Sportsman’s Paradise.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because of its unbeatable setting—just minutes from the South Platte River and backing directly to both Pike National Forest and San Isabel National Forest. It’s a true outdoor lover’s paradise, with world-class fishing, endless hiking trails, ATV adventures, abundant wildlife, and breathtaking mountain scenery right at your doorstep.

But beyond the adventure, what makes this spot so special is the sense of peace and connection it brings. It’s the kind of place where families gather on the deck to watch deer wander by, where laughter carries through game nights inside, and where unforgettable memories are made. For us, it’s the perfect blend of outdoor excitement and mountain serenity—and we’re grateful to be able to share it with others.

What makes this property unique

One of the things that sets our cabin apart is that you’ll deal directly with us—the owners—for all booking inquiries and communication. That means fast, personal responses, tailored recommendations, and support every step of the way—no middleman, no property management company.

Beyond direct communication, our cabin offers a special combination of comforts and experiences you won’t find anywhere else. Whether it’s relaxing on the deck as wildlife passes by, gathering with family around the fireplace, or exploring world-class fishing, hiking, and ATV trails just minutes away, we strive to make every stay smooth, enjoyable, and unforgettable. We’re here to ensure your visit is exactly what you hope for—and more.

This cabin is also a perfect fit for outdoor enthusiasts looking to fish, hike, explore, or simply relax and take in the beautiful scenery. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or a trip with close friends, you’ll find comfort, convenience, and adventure all in one unforgettable place.
