A unique benefit of this cabin is the proximity to the river~the sound of the river flowing promotes solid sleep. We love this home because we can enjoy the river right in front of the cabin, and go straight from the property to miles of trails in the Roosevelt National Forest. The trails are great for hiking, snowshoeing, and cross country skiing!
Plus it's close and convenient to Lady Moon, Mount Margaret, Lone Pine and many more trail heads also!
The views of wildlife from the home are absolutely breathtaking and we never tire of looking out and seeing the moose & deer visiting and grazing on the grass (and the aspen buds in the spring!).
In the summer, the wildflowers around the cabin and nearby trails just explode! The aspens leaf out and columbines & other wildflowers are abundant all around the home--it is incredible!
In the fall, the gorgeous aspens turn a beautiful gold and watching the leaves fall from the deck is one of our favorite things to do--very relaxing after a day of hiking, fishing, biking, or horseback riding.
In the winter, the snow on the pine trees with the sun glistening on the branches are magical....mother nature's Christmas lights. We love snowshoeing on the trails in the winter, and coming back to the cabin to warm up with hot cocoa & the awesome fireplace!
Overall the peace & quiet of this location, the river, wildlife, and proximity to the trails are the huge draws of this property. We love being in the mountains--where our neighbors are mostly deer, moose, elk, black bears, marmots, eagles, hummingbirds, grouse, wild turkeys and so much more.
Getting to reconnect with nature & getting away from concrete, stress of cities, traffic, noise, neon signs & crowds. We love River Song Refuge for decompressing & reconnecting with nature, trees, wildflowers, & the abundance of lakes, rivers & mountains to explore in Northern Colorado with River Song Refuge as base camp is simply perfect!
