About this property
Magnolia Mountain Getaway
This rustic, bohemian style mountain home, with amazing views of Boulder and Boulder Canyon, is just ten minutes from bustling Pearl Street and downtown Boulder, but feels a million miles away.
If you're looking for more space or want to have a family reunion, we have another guest house on the property. Check it out here: https://www.vrbo.com/2605052?noDates=true
The space:
The cabin is located on 10 acres of pristine private property in the Roosevelt National Forest. With the mountain air blowing through the pines, you'll forget you're only 10 minutes from the city.
An engineer rents the attached walkout basement with a completely separate exterior entrance and no interior access. Extremely quiet and usually only around 3-4 days/week.
Guest access:
There are 2 additional houses on the property and guests are welcome to access every inch of the 10 acres. In addition to the 2 acres of developed land, there are 8 acres of trails surrounding the property, several of which switchback down to Boulder Creek. Guests are encouraged to hike and adventure out directly from the property.
Other things to note
Directions from downtown Boulder:
- Head WEST on Canyon Blvd/CO 119
- LEFT onto Magnolia Dr (also known as Magnolia Rd)
- Our place is just 3/4 of a mile up Magnolia Dr.
You will be staying in the cabin on the right side of the driveway. Parking is just past the first house on the left side of the driveway, next to the canopy carport. You can enter the cabin from either door on the upper level.
The main source of heat is a thermostat-controlled forced air unit. Area heaters are stored in the closets if additional heat is needed. There's also a wood burning fireplace, so we suggest bringing some wood bundles if you want to keep it extra cozy.
During winter, a vehicle with AWD or 4x4 is recommended. If you don't have that, please make sure you have snow chains for your tires.
Have a blast and we look forward to meeting you!

About the host
Hosted by Joseph Cartlidge
We're James, Olive, Rosie and Joe - son, daughter, mom and dad. Native Californians, we moved to Colorado in 2016 and going from beaches to boulders has been eye opening in that we now truly experience seasons. Sometimes glorious, other times defeating but always fun and we love every new memory made.
Why they chose this property
