Wonderful stay. Nice relaxed had a fireplace. Plenty of firewood nice views, and we caught the winters first snow. Down side dial up internet and no phone service. Didn’t get messages form the owner till we left.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
very disappointed, lots of safety issues
the location was beautiful, we found the house to be in need of lots of repairs. Lots of trip hazards on the front and back deck, unsafe stairways outside, 1/2-working hot tub, no propane for the grill,2 empty tanks, dirty dishes in the cupboard, had to rewash many items. we also had to pick up trash that was left out, junk strewn about the yard, more trip hazards. Broken tiles on the shower floor, floor transitions not installed properly, more trip hazards. Front screen door wouldn't shut because of deck boards that were loose. Light fixtures missing or non working light bulbs. My partner cut her toe on the coffee table because of a dangerous sharp edge. Dog hair all over the carpet. Had wet towels put in the cabinet after 3 days. The ceiling fan had a build up crud on the blades. we contacted the owner with this detailed list and took pictures of everything. would not recommend this to anyone, very unsafe home, with lots of potential. 1 star rating for the house, 5 star for the location
We enjoyed the tranquil setting and spectacular views! The house had every amenity needed and was very comfortable. The whole family had a wonderful time! Thank you!
We had a lovely stay at this beautiful mountain cabin! My favorite part was the hot tub on the back deck with an amazing view! We watched the sunset every night from the hot tub. Our days were spent relaxing in the cabin or hiking on one of the MANY awesome hiking trails nearby. We also spent a little time shopping and eating in Breckenridge. We are flatlanders from Texas, so the altitude did require some prep. We purchased Boost Oxygen bottles from Dick's Sporting Goods in Colorado Springs before heading up to the cabin, but I noticed they have them in many stores in Breckenridge as well. I found the Boost very helpful when I was feeling a little breathless or dizzy. We also tried our best to stay hydrated and to rest and relax on our first day there. We probably would've done even better if we'd avoided caffeine and alcohol, but the cabin's back deck was way too tempting to not enjoy my morning coffee or my evening wine/cocktail on it! Oh well! Luckily, the mountain spring water straight from the sink tap was just as good to help us stay hydrated as much as possible. I also found the humidifier provided in the cabin very helpful. We used it nightly along with our saline nasal spray! Dinner was easy to prepare in the kitchen. We had almost everything we needed or we were able to improvise. The only things I missed from home in the kitchen were a cocktail jigger or small measuring cup (with ounces) and kitchen sheers. I was glad to see that the kitchen had a coffee bean grinder and coffee maker with a reusable metal filter (no paper filters necessary). There were also angel wings wine openers and acrylic wine glasses that you can use in the hot tub. In the bathrooms, there was liquid shampoo and liquid soap, but I would suggest bringing plenty of lotion for high-altitude dry skin and don't forget your chapstick! The sheets on the bed were amazing, but we found the comforter was a little too thick and woke us up too hot. However, there are thinner blankets provided in the cabin that we could've/should've used instead. I also appreciated the jars of birdseed next to the back door! It was so fun to set some out and watch the beautiful Steller's Jays, Magpies, and squirrels come visit for a little meal throughout the day, even while we were in the hot tub! I loved having my binoculars with me as well to look at all the birds, mountains, & stars a little closer. All in all, it was a fabulous stay for us in the Colorado Mountains! Thank you, Cathy!
My husband and I brought our 14 year old dog up for a quick weekend. Everything was perfect. Amazing views from the deck/hot tub. Great kitchen and grills. Will be back!
Views were breathtaking. The owner Cathy was more than accommodating on any and all questions we posed to her. Accommodations were good. The stars at night were breathtaking. Had a little problem with altitude at first but well worth views day and night.
Enjoyed the décor. Felt like someone lived there. Nice bac porch, great view, and animal friendly. We really enjoyed our stay. Host was helpful and did everything they could to make it a great stay. Would recommend this place.
I honestly hesitated about writing such a wonderful review so that this place doesn't get booked out. This place is wonderful, the pictures don't do it justice. Cozy and inviting, big enough to spread out or cuddle up together in the living room. Close enough to town, but far enough away for some respite. We will be back, without a doubt.
My partner and I really enjoyed our stay here. We were in constant amazement of the details Cathy put into our stay. It was cozy and extremely relaxing. I would definitely recommend!
Owner cancelled AFTER we showed up, leaving us stranded
It was awful. After a three hour drive to the mountains, our reunion of friends showed up to the house which we had booked-and been fully charged for-four months prior. The owner was unpacking her own bags and told us she was not aware of our reservation. We showed her proof of our reservation, which she then cancelled on the spot. She told us to leave in spite of this and advised us to find a hotel. I would never rent from her again; be warned. On top of that, VRBO registration to book a new place was closed, and they did not answer their “24 hour hotline.” A very disappointing experience from every perspective, and I have a long history of being an excellent customer. This ruined it for me.
Very much enjoyed our stay. Views from back patio were the best. Furniture is all very comfortable and the mountain cabin décor is great. The place is super clean inside. There is WiFi. I thought I read on my confirmation that there wasn't so I did not take my laptop which would have been nice to have after dark. We opted not to have any fires in the fire pit outside because fire danger was high and wasn't really cold enough to have a fireplace fire but there is plenty of firewood available. We would definitely stay here again.
This amazing property tucked away in the woods was exactly what we were looking for for a romantic weekend in the mountains. The views were spectacular, and it was private enough to feel like you had the whole mountain to yourself. Everything we may have needed was available, and if we had any questions the communication was great.
Our family had an amazing stay. The property was very beautiful, clean and comfortable.
What an amazing property. It was clean and comfortable. We loved the peacefulness and solitude of the property. The hot tub in the back has gorgeous Mountain View’s. The property owner Cathy was so nice and gave perfect directions and instructions.
My husband and I loved our short vacation at Cathy's cabin. Super private and very quiet. Large primary upstairs bedroom with lovely view very comfy bed with soft sheets. Also really enjoyed the hot tub and being in the trees. The cabin had everything we needed and was very nicely located close to Breckenridge and amazing hiking. We will be back!
Cathy made this whole experience very pleasant. She not only called me to chat before we stayed (which provides a huge comfort) but she provided many ideas and Yelp links for things to do and see. She also provided every amenity we could ask for upon arriving. I can't stress the importance of this. Having wash cloths, Kleenex, and hand soap available upon arrival is something many people just don't do. But Cathy did. Her home is large and beautiful. The kitchen is wonderfully appointed, and I cannot say enough about the great room (we used the fireplace twice) and the next door family room where we watched TV every night. The hot tub views were incredible! Being able to enjoy the views of Mount Lincoln and Mount Cameron from the luxury of the hot tub was a particularly high point. We were also relatively equidistant to Breckenridge and Alma/Fairplay so siteseeing and shopping for supplies was easy and fun. We'd love to return!
Our experience from the time of booking met or exceeded expectations. There were many WOW factors as we arrived, including the scenic drive in and out. We were hoping for a location that would make us question coming home - and this perfect cabin did not disappoint. We did not need to bring a thing except for our food. We had no reason to leave at all! But did find a wonderful experience in some of the surrounding towns. The views are even better than the pictures. We had a couple things come up that were not planned and Cathy was incredibly accommodating and supportive. We are excited to return with the family next time!
If peace and quiet in a tranquil setting is what you seek, this is the place for you. Sitting on 3 acres, the home is wonderfully secluded. I never saw another person during our stay. We snowshoed during the day and sat in the hot tub, under the stars, at night. It’s the perfect house for families as it has numerous hang out areas so that no one ever feels on top of one another. The owner is quick to respond and very helpful. I highly recommend this wonderful space.
We really enjoyed our stay. The place is even cuter then online. We enjoyed just relaxing playing board games, putting puzzles together, sitting by the fire and relaxing in the hot tub. The views from the family room were gorgeous of the mountains. Plus watching the goldfinches outside on the patio. The house and the hot tub were warm and ready for us. Cathy was also great checking to see if we needed anything.
What a cute A-frame house! It was perfect for a friend getaway - beautiful location, private setting in the woods - tho still close to services, had a hot tub with a view, a fully stocked kitchen so we could cook all of our meals easily, and different areas inside and out so people could do their own thing, and the owner was very responsive and helpful. The outdoor areas need a little TLC, but don’t let that color your decision - this place has charm, comfort, and isn’t like all of the cookie-cutter townhomes that tend to pop up in searches. We loved our 5-night stay immensely!
We enjoyed our stay very much. We ate dinner several times on the patio with a view of both Mt.Lincoln and Mt.Bross. The location was 15 minutes away from Breck, and 5 minutes to Alma. Communication with Cathy was immediate, and she was very helpful with area attractions.. I highly recommend.
