Cozy little cabin, which is outside of the busyness of the city. The foldout couch was a bit stiff but there is a blow-up mattress if you choose. Well furnished kitchen and bathroom. Rex was very responsive to any questions I had.Thanks!!

I stayed here for a month. It was quiet, cozy, and comfortable. I was never bothered the entire time. And it was central to everything I needed. Red and his nephew even reminded me about a road closure that probably saved my plans for that day. Very thoughtful and much appreciated!

Glad our historic Jim Bridger Cabin in Coal Creek Cabins is a "Nice cozy place! I am doing a painting job up the road from the cabin, so it was very convenient, less than 5 minutes away... it was very clean and nice shower." Keurig coffee maker is provided along with several pods to start out. Hope you return in the future! Regards, Rex

I cannot convey how grateful I am to the team for offering such a wonderful place for me to stay.I had to leave and head to Boulder on very little notice with multiple pets.Rex was so accommodating and even started the air conditioning in the cabin for me since I was arriving quite late.Any time I had a question about anything he responded immediately.The cabin was very nice, and I greatly appreciated their team’ help and eliminating a huge amount of stress since I had come to Boulder on no notice to support a relative.Thank you Rex and the team for offering such wonderful service as well as a great place to stay!Laurie

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy
The whole cabin sits a few degrees off the level horizon, the vintage pull out 3" metal spring massaging mattress sits another few degrees off the already crooked floor. Weird smell. Stale water in the keurig. They shut the water off in the middle of the day with no warning. The creek it's on is more like a moving drainage ditch BUT plenty of bear scat around the creepy neighbor cabins. I would feel comfortable paying 32/night and be embarrassed to charge more. And be prepared to dig through screens full of inane info to find the door code. Have fun, kids

I am sorry you feel that way. I advise folks to read the 120 4.75 of 5.0 Reviews on the other platform and the 18 8.6 of 10 Reviews on this platform. Note that the guest said nothing to us during their 6-day stay and waited to blast us in their review. Because the historic Jim Bridger Cabin has been in this same location for 120 years, it has shifted slightly over the past century but that adds to the rustic cabin's quaintness. I am sorry that the water was off for 20 minutes of the 6 days you were there when the technician was working on it. Most folks enjoy the excitement of having Bears and Moose and Mule Deer and other wildlife in the mountains so not sure what you are expecting or how you want us to move the wildlife away... We provide a very nice Queen Air Mattress to supplement the built-in sleeper sofa so I'm not sure why that was not used? We have tried hard to please everyone but struggle to do that.

Cabin was clean

Cabin was small, which we knew. Our only concern was the location, right on a busy intersection with loud traffic. Otherwise it was a good 2 day stay.

Clean bur very rustic

The cabin was clean. It was difficult for me to walk in as I had mobility access issues and the floors were slightly slanted. Otherwise, a good place.

Cute, clean, and secluded cabin

Could not have asked for a better stay. Small cabin but perfect size for my boyfriend and I. Also a perfect distance from Boulder, Denver, and ski resort while still being remote. Will definitely stay again if ever in CO and recommend to couples!
