This was the perfect place for us to host our wedding. It comfortably fit all of out party members (around 14 people). The wedding site was gorgeous and we had the most perfect wedding. I highly recomend this cabin if you are looking to host a small wedding or a family reunion. Please take their advice for 4wd vehicles seriously because the driveways are steep but so so worth it.The host and owners and quick to respond with any concerns or questions. The cabin has many accommodations for all your needs, as well as plenty of fridge space!

Family time

Gorgeous area tucked in the mountains, but not far off the main road. Close to Dolores, Cortez and Mesa Verde. Lots of room for a large family gathering. A trip to remember for sure.

Our Favorite Home Away From Home

This was our 5th year staying as a group of family and friends and again will not be our last. The place continues to be so inviting, clean, and comfortable and has the most relaxing views that I look forward to every year. We have more than enough space to spread out, and to gather by the fire table each evening on the deck. The house has everything anyone could need and especially in the kitchen to make great large meals. And we can never say enough about Anna the Property Manager. She is always so helpful when needed and we can always count on her being a text away to answer any questions. We are already booked for 2026 and will be counting down the days!

Hummingbirds are in abundance out of the dining window and on the deck (pro tip: don't wear red if sitting outside)

Mountain Wedding of Our Dreams

Beautiful property for a small destination wedding! Everything we needed for the kitchen and overnight guests was stocked (even outdoor chairs and games). Booked in the fall and got golden aspens and sunshine! So thankful we found this place!

Absolutely beautiful!

The stay was absolutely amazing! Such great communication from both the property managers and owners! The great communication helped us not stress about the property on top of already handling our wedding! This is amazing option to have your wedding and had so much more room than anticipated! Just absolutely beautiful!

Great Home for a Family Reunion

This was a wonderful location for our family reunion. The accommodations were comfortable for everyone from Grandma and Grandpa, to the teenagers, down to the 1 year old baby. We loved the various living spaces for people to spread out. The acreage surrounding the house is gorgeous! This was exactly what we wanted, and we would stay here again.

Another amazing stay

We had our wedding here a year ago and just came back to celebrate our first anniversary with family and friends. Could not recommend this cabin and property manager “more highly”. We love staying here and hope to make it an annual trip for our family.

Aspen lodge

Not quite what they said. Every activity was two hours away. There was no close river access. The sewer had backed up the week before and the lower floor had not been cleaned well so it had an Oder they had tried to cover up. It did not have the amount of beds it advertized. Glad some had brought air mattresses. The property was very nice and the children had a fun time. I’m sorry my review couldn’t have been better.

Perfect wedding weekend

We stayed from Thursday to Sunday! Anna helped us answer any questions we needed up to the trip! The check in and out process was so easy. The property was more beautiful in person and had everything we needed and more. We used the ceremony site for our wedding which was a dream come true. Could not recommend this stay anymore!!

Wedding getaway

We had 29 people stay here for our wedding and we even used the ceremony site and it was so amazing and beautiful the property is so pretty. We were visited by so much wild life mtn lion at night a bear 2 mornings in a row. The views from the cabin are to die for! The fact its so close to so many historic towns really add to the extra extploring you can do. I definitely want to rent with you again!

Amazing property

We were all so impressed with the house and property. It was fully stocked with everything and absolutely beautiful. The house felt very spacious. We had 25 adults and it didn’t even feel like it! The fire pit outside is great and the fire on the patio is amazing also!! We can’t wait to stay here again for family reunions. I would say the only thing the house is missing is a hot tub!

Family reunion for a celebration of life

Elevation was a little hard on us as we're all over 70 years of age, but we all loved the cabin, location and views. All slept well after the first night -- always tough when traveling. We all say: "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Great site for family reunion

We had a fantastic stay overall. The upstairs was a little hot the first evening, but the weather cooled off for the remainder of our time and we had a blast. The cabin fit our lat large family well and we enjoyed our stay. The pool cues were not very good, but everything else was great! We had plenty of room to set up yard games, enjoyed roasting hot dogs ands s'more's in the fire pit. Loved watching deer wander through the area and hummingbirds snack outside the windows. It was a great family vacation spot.

Family reunion

It was wonderful! This is the 3rd time we've had our bi-annual reunion there. The scenery is fabulous, with deer coming into the yard at night and in the morning. The cabin is well stocked with bedding, towels, kitchen supplies and refrigerator space. We took a short trip to the river and did some hiking from the cabin. The gas fire table on the balcony was perfect for Smores. The hummingbirds are a joy to watch. The cabin was clean and well stocked, and we hope to come back again. Communication with the property manager was fabulous as well.

Perfect spot in the fall

This was an amazing place to stay and get married, especially the second week of October. The cabin gave an amazing view to see the leaves change and in full color. They also stocked it very well overall. The wedding site was also incredible, the walk up was absolutely stunning and my favorite part! Maybe if you’re nervous about driving in the mountains any, walk up/down the driveway and it’ll make you feel better :) besides the driveway the drive there was absolutely perfect and not intimidating at all for those of us from the flat lands.

Wedding weekend celebration

Beautiful property with lots to do in the surrounding area. We were up here for our wedding! Bad weather and unforeseen circumstances resulted in us having to pivot our plans for a ceremony at the ceremony site, but the location has plenty of options for backup plans for a ceremony. We ended up doing the ceremony on the porch near the gas fire pit and it worked out amazing! During our stay there was an emergency fire resulting in down power lines. As a result we had no power for a day, but the house is more than equipped for this. The property manager was very responsive and let us know where all the back up water and flashlights were. Each floor also had a fireplace and the house is equipped with more than enough firewood. Despite the unforeseen complications due to Mother Nature our group had a great time! Would definitely come back to this place.

Comfy and beautiful - everything we needed

We were so happy with our stay! The house was very comfy and well appointed. It was well stocked with everything we needed- pots, pans, dishware, paper towels, laundry detergent, dishwasher soap, etc. I have stayed at other rental houses that supply a very limited amount of these items, so I appreciated having enough to last our whole trip. As you can tell from the photos, this is a great house for a large group. We had plenty of space. The large dining table was big enough to seat our full group of 11 people for Thanksgiving dinner (and we could have sat more people at the adjacent counter stools in the kitchen). The house is not modern and shows plenty of signs of wear, but everything was functional. The best part about the rental is the outdoor space. We had several kids who loved climbing in the tree house, playing in the stick fort, sledding down the hills, exploring the wedding venue, and watching turkeys visit the yard. Our group was not there for a wedding, but I can say that I would highly recommend the rental as a wedding venue! Very picturesque and the benches and wedding arch seemed perfect for an outdoor wedding. Thank you!

Beautiful, secluded property

We stayed here for a week in August during a family reunion. We had 27 people including 15 children. It was spacious and comfortable enough for all of us, it had plenty of room for all our food (3 refrigerators), and we really enjoyed being here.The weather felt nice enough to be outside, and it was quiet and secluded. There are neighbors but you don’t really hear or see them. We enjoyed watching the deer, hummingbirds, and chipmunks that show up around the property. There is even a small tree house in the woods where the kids enjoyed playing. If you plan to come with small children, be advised: The pictures are a little deceiving; the area is not as flat as the pictures make it look. There are steep drop offs and the house is on a hill. You pretty much have to supervise the children the whole time they are outside. Also, maybe it was in the listing, but if not, there is no air conditioner. The temperature is much lower in the mountains so it was cold at night and in the early mornings. But the afternoons can get pretty warm. It wasn’t unbearable, but outside was sometimes cooler than inside.

Another Great Year...and ready to go back!

This was our fourth year staying and I think it just gets better each time. This place is amazing...clean, welcoming, comfortable. I just can't say enough and it's the reason we'll be booking for next year again. The house is close or within a day trip of some of the best national parks, Telluride, whatever you want to do. And coming back to such a comfy place to relax for the night, make dinner, just hang out with family and friends...while you sit on the deck to soak in the beauty...is PRICELESS! There's so much room and everyone has their own space with all the amenities they need. The kitchen just gets more and more stocked each year with whatever you'd need to make amazing large meals for all staying. We have a group of 8, with a dog, and MORE than enough room. But we book this house because it's spread out, nobody on top of one another. One person can go sit on the deck and read, while others hike and maybe just sit at the fire table. Wildlife is abundant during our stay and the hummingbirds are by the 100s! I'll never be able to say enough about the place. It feels like our annual home away from home now. OH, and Anna the property manager is always amazing (even if we just text due to an unexpected power outage). She always goes ABOVE AND BEYOND. Now, before everyone reads this review and hurries to reserve...I need to get on and book my dates for next year...because we're always coming back!! :) THANK YOU for another great year!

Most magical wedding cabin ever!!

My now husband and I chose this cabin for our intimate wedding with our immediate family and closest friends, and could not be more happy with our stay!! We had 22 people staying in the cabin for 5 days, and had 38 total at the wedding, and there was plenty of room for everyone! The ceremony site was out of this world with colors and completely stunning - it even rained a day or two before the wedding day and was perfectly fine getting up there luckily! We took three cars back and forth to get everyone up to the ceremony site on wedding day. The house is STOCKED with more than we thought - toilet paper, towels to shower with, so much coffee! etc., and had tons to use in the kitchen as well. The wifi was good enough to receive text messages, but phone calls were pretty spotty. For a wedding weekend, we were totally okay with that - but a work trip probably would be tough! The only "downfall" if you want to call it that, is the night of the wedding the septic tank over filled and we had to call the property manager to take care of it. They came out super quick even being late at night, and completely fixed the problem along with cleaning the basement for us! Outstanding service and we're so grateful this didn't interrupt our wedding fun! We highly recommend this cabin for your intimate wedding or just a family fun weekend! So much to explore and just amazing views in the backyard, we are so happy with everything!!
