Spacious Log Cabin with Expansive Mountain Vistas, National Forest
A great escape for you, family and friends! Beautiful 3 bedroom log cabin located on 35+ acres with expansive mountain views from wrap-around decks. Approximately 20 minutes from the Royal George, rafting and many outdoor activities. A secluded getaway to relax and enjoy the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Wifi, good cell service.
Three bedrooms on two levels. Main floor has master bedroom, en suite. Upper floor has two bedrooms (two queen beds and full bed), a loft with a queen futon (very comfortable) and a full bath. Wrap-around deck is a great place to eat, hang out and watch the beautiful sunrises over Pikes Peak. TV and DVD player are on main level with access to Netflix/AmazonPrime/etc and DVDs for the entire family.
Kitchen is fully furnished for your enjoyment: coffee maker, microwave, oven/stove, dish washer, hand mixer, etc. Living room with fireplace is furnished with leather sofas and TV/DVD. Games/puzzles/books are on hand. The house is heated with a log-burning fire place (wood provided) and supplemental heat by central heating.
A gas grill is available for grilling and the garage is a great place to keep the car.
