Off-Grid Forest Getaway w/ WiFi on 4 Acres

Just 1.5 hrs from Denver and under an hour from Breckenridge, this solar-powered cabin invites you to unplug in comfort.

Nestled in a private aspen grove, it pairs cozy beds, hot showers, and Starlink WiFi with starlit skies, mountain views, a hillside sunset perch, and the quiet of true seclusion.

Off-grid living here isn’t a sacrifice - it’s a reset. Warm by the wood stove, bask in the sounds of the wind and birds, and reconnect with what matters. Trails, lakes, and stillness await.

What does Off-Grid mean at The Hidden Grove?

The Hidden Grove runs 100% on solar power, supported by a small battery backup. That means your stay is not just a getaway - it’s a gentle reset. Living off-grid here isn’t about roughing it; it’s about slowing down, tuning in, and becoming more intentional with your time and energy.

When the sun shines (which it often does), the system easily powers the essentials: hot showers, the furnace, fridge, and lights. But on cloudy days—or when too many high-energy appliances run at once—you may need to pace your usage. Occasionally, power might pause overnight and return with the morning sun.

We’ve come to love these moments. They remind us to cook a little slower, to sit by the fire, and to look at the stars.

Working with the rhythms of nature becomes part of the experience - one that many guests find both grounding and deeply rejuvenating.

A few simple ways to conserve power:
- Run only one stove burner at a time
- Use the washer/dryer during daylight
- Avoid running multiple appliances at once

If the power does go out, no need to worry - we’ve stocked the cabin with everything you’ll need to stay warm, clean, and comfortable. It’s all part of the charm.

And of course, if you ever have questions, we’re just a message away :)

Kitchen & Entry
Step into a thoughtfully stocked kitchen featuring a fridge, stove, dishwasher, and your choice of coffee rituals—from a classic maker to a handcrafted pour-over setup. The dining table extends to seat four comfortably. Outside, the 4-burner BBQ offers a scenic, energy-friendly way to cook while soaking in fresh air and mountain views.

Living room
The heart of the cabin is bathed in natural light, with windows facing the sweeping mountain views all around you. Curl up on the couch with a book by the wood stove, or stream your favorite movie on the smart TV. It’s a space designed for both unwinding and feeling restored by your surroundings.

Primary Bedroom
The primary bedroom offers a cozy queen bed and a spacious desk setup perfect for remote work or creative projects. With abundant natural light and a fold-out room divider for video calls, it’s a serene place to balance focus and calm.

Secondary Bedroom
This flexible space includes two twin beds—one lofted—and a chair that folds into an additional single mattress. Ideal for kids, friends, or anyone who loves a cozy nook.

Laundry Room
A high-efficiency washer and dryer are available for use on sunny days. Notes on optimal usage and power conservation are included in your digital guidebook.

Bathroom
The full bathroom includes a tub and shower, plush towels, and essentials like shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and makeup remover cloths. Everything you need for a refreshing reset.

Outdoor Space
Two decks welcome you outside—one with a patio table and propane grill, the other perfect for quiet mornings or starry evenings. A picnic table, scattered chairs, and a handmade hillside trail lead you to breathtaking lookout points with views of the Rockies.

Remote work
With Starlink WiFi and a dedicated work setup in the primary bedroom, the cabin makes an inspiring backdrop for remote work. Guests often find that the landscape adds clarity, creativity, and calm to their routines.

Exploring the Property
Wander across 4 private, aspen-dotted acres. Logs mark the boundary lines and the natural elevation leads you to quiet hideaways and expansive views. Sunset from the hillside chairs is unforgettable—and always worth the walk.

Groceries & Supplies
Plan to pick up groceries before you arrive - we recommend the Natural Grocers in Conifer if coming from Denver. Once you're at The Hidden Grove, you’re about 30–45 minutes from Prather’s Market in Fairplay. Closer still is Jefferson (~20 min), with a small store (don’t miss the homemade fudge!) and the beloved Hungry Moose Caboose.

Winter Weather & Adventures
Winter at The Hidden Grove is quiet, sparkling, and unforgettable—but it’s also the season to come prepared.

From December through March, snow-covered pines and crisp mountain air turn the cabin into a true sanctuary. Expect temperatures to drop well below freezing—sometimes below zero—especially at night.

Because daylight hours are shorter and the sun is lower in the sky, solar power is more limited in winter. This means mindful energy use is even more important. Running fewer appliances at once, using the washer/dryer only on sunny days, and embracing the warmth of the wood stove will all help you make the most of your stay.

We recommend:

- A 4WD or AWD vehicle for safe access
- Extra groceries and water in case of weather delays
- Cozy layers for stepping outside to catch the stars or breathe in the stillness

The furnace will keep the home comfortable, but the wood stove is your best friend on chilly nights—quickly heating the cabin while adding to the winter charm.

Whether you’re here to snowshoe, explore nearby trails, or simply slow down and watch snow fall outside the window, winter at The Hidden Grove is a restorative experience like no other.
