This cozy mountain getaway is located in the heart of the Colorado San Juan Mountain Range, halfway between Montrose and Gunnison off Hwy50. This cabin has all the comforts of home, but set apart at 9,000 ft. elevation surrounded by acres of quaking aspen, majestic pines, natural mountain lakes and wildlife. Paradise to all the hikers, bikers, ATV'ers, fisherman, hunters, snowmobilers, and cross-country skiers out there! Come, stay, re-charge and enjoy all that nature has to offer

The space
This 3,000 sq. ft. cabin features 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and can accommodate up to 12 guests. Whether you want to host a large family gathering or enjoy the space with friends, there is more than enough room to accommodate. Kids will love the bunk room in the loft with attached playroom, private bathroom, and smart television and DVD player for movies (bring your own movies). The master features a king bed with private access to a bathroom. The additional private guest suite on the main floor has a queen bed. Guests who stay in the basement will enjoy private access to their own bathroom.

The great room features a large leather sectional, wood burning stove and a fully equipped kitchen that overlooks unobstructed magnificent mountain views. Enjoy dining inside or outside on the deck. An outdoor grill is available for your use (propane provided). If you’re quiet, you might spot an animal or two, or three!

Want a break from the kids? No problem, send them down to the walk-out basement to the fully outfitted game room featuring a pool table, big screen tv, wet bar and collection of card and board games. Perhaps the crisp mountain air is calling for a fire in the outdoor fire pit. The cabin has roasters for you to roast your hot dogs and marshmallows! Please note that dogs are not allowed.

This cabin has all the amenities available for a comfortable and hassle-free stay. Just bring your own food, belongings and personal care items including bath soap and shampoo as those are not supplied. The cabin also has a washer and dryer for your laundry needs.

Things to Do:

Do you like to hunt? The cabin during the FALL can’t be beat! It is in Unit 66 and on the border of Unit 65. There's plenty of hiking, biking, off-roading and fishing left to do during the months of September and October too.

The WINTER is a snowmobile paradise!! Enjoy 32 miles of groomed snowmobile trails on the Alpine Plateau courtesy of the Arrowhead Snowmobile Club. Check their website at arrowheadsnowmobile.org for maps and more information about snowmobiling in the area. Don’t have your own snowmobiles? Rent some at Arrowhead Mountain Adventures. Check their website at alpineplateau.com for more information. Maybe snowshoeing or cross-country skiing is more your vibe, there are miles of groomed trails for that too!

In the SUMMER, enjoy great hiking, biking, off-roading, and fishing right as you walk out the front door. Hazel Lake is a short walk from the cabin where you can enjoy the beautiful views or fish for free without state licensure using our guest pass. Please note that swimming is restricted in this lake and others in the area. Enjoy free outdoor concerts at the Arrowhead Mountain Lodge 1.8 miles down the road every Saturday night in the Summer from Memorial Day Weekend to Labor Day Weekend. Don’t feel like cooking? Arrowhead Mountain Lodge has you covered at their in-house restaurant and bar. Check their hours of operation at all that they have to offer at arrowheadmtnlodge.com. If you enjoy ATV-ing, the 1.5 hour off-road drive to Lake City may interest you where you can access Engineer Pass, Cinnamon Pass or the Alpine Loop. Please note that you will need to trailer your off-road vehicles to access these trails. Off road vehicles are not permitted on roads in Colorado. There is a short section before Lake City where off road vehicles are not allowed. Arrowhead Mountain Adventures has off-road vehicles to rent.

The cabin is 32 miles away from the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and 12 miles away from Blue Mesa Reservoir where you can enjoy recreational boating or fishing. The closest resorts are Crested Butte (1.5 hours East) and Telluride (2 hours
West) where you can enjoy skiing in the Winter and a variety of activities in the Summer.

Guest access
* In the WINTER, approximately late November through early April, all homes in the Arrowhead Development in Cimarron are CLOSED to road vehicles. Alpine Plateau Road (off US Hwy 50 in Little Blue Canyon) is plowed up to the Winter parking lot where you can park your road vehicles (5.5 miles from Hwy50). From there, the cabin is 1.8 miles away accessible ONLY by snowmobile, snowshoes, skis or securing a shuttle. If you don’t own or bring any of these, make reservations at Arrowhead Mountain Adventures (alpineplateau.com) at least 4 weeks or 48 hours before your stay. Be advised that we will require confirmation of snowmobile rentals 4 weeks prior or 48 hours if booked within 4 weeks prior to your stay. If we are unable to get confirmation from you, we may need to cancel your reservation.

Other things to note:
* NO SMOKING of any kind (tobacco, marijuana, vaping, etc.) is allowed in the cabin OR on the property at any time.

*Pets are NOT allowed. Violators of this rule will incur an automatic $300 fine.

*The nearest store (of any kind) is 30+ miles away through mountain terrain. Shop for food or other needed supplies BEFORE you arrive. There is a large pantry and fridge for you to store all your food and supplies. If you do find yourself in a pinch, Arrowhead Mountain Lodge has a very limited list of things available: milk, soda, bread, and cheese. They have also been so kind to sell small quantities of flour or sugar if you forgot some.

*Internet is available at the cabin, but cell phone coverage is limited.

*Be aware that this cabin is in a remote location and the main road to get there (Alpine Plateau Road off Hwy 50) is an uphill dirt road and may become slick in the winter, especially during a snowstorm. It is plowed and maintained during the winter, but make sure you check the weather report before you come and drive appropriate vehicles for the conditions.
