Perfect getaway!
We spent three days here with our five kids and couldn’t have been happier. The house was gorgeous and charming and the surrounding land was spectacular. A perfect place to slow down and enjoy time with each other.

Private, remote but in the middle of things
Great location to Iron Mountain. Convenient to Palisade. You are in a very rural area, and not a concern if you want privacy. Thoroughly enjoyed our time, and the house was very comfortable. Only concern we had was coming home in the late evening. Roads were extremely dark and we missed the house! Really could use something to light the way. Turn into the drive was also extremely tight and, if your aren't careful, you could hit the fence. Make note that you are responsible for providing your own bath essentials (soap, shampoo, conditioner). I did not realize this until after we arrived. But, this is a beautiful cabin to relax in and get away from the city.

We loved this house and in particular the outside spaces! Host was quickly responsive. Would prefer a little more privacy upstairs and a better futon/other bed option but overall a lovely place.

Needs some updates & an arborist.
Deck door off of kitchen would not stay shut & no handle on the outside. Needs screens on windows for ventilation. First floor bedroom bed is short for an adult person. Needs sprayed for bugs. The pictures are a little deceiving they seem a little old as you can see by the bushes.

This is a beautiful property and the house is very well kept. It was close enough to town that we enjoyed going to Glenwood Springs to horseback ride and visit the hot springs. The home is peaceful and quiet. I highly recommend it!

Beautiful and peaceful location
Stayed at the cabin to get away from the fireworks over the 4th (very frightened dog) and this more than met our needs. We loved sitting out on the many decks, enjoying the sound of the creek and seeing wild turkeys and the mini donkeys on the farm. Charity is a fabulous host… very responsive and helpful in answering questions, even those not related to the home itself.

This was my second time staying here! I love all the little areas to kick back, grill read a book and enjoy the animals and birds. The house has everything you need! Step back in time a bit and just enjoy the creek and quiet solitude!

OUTSTANDING PROPERTY
The photos do not due this home justice. It is gorgeous. Close to everything. We sat on the beautiful porches and saw so many birds, hummingbirds, wild turkeys, and even some donkeys. You've got everything you need at this serene home. Silt is three miles away with one of the finest restaurants on the western slope. Seriously. Make a reservation at Miner's Claim. And if you can stay at this home, well that would be icing on the cake. Thank you to our wonderful host Charity. Happy travels everyone.

Beautiful and peaceful setting
We enjoyed a quiet stay in a natural setting on this property. The home is unique and the stream side lot very peaceful. Respectfully suggest some landscape tidying and cleaning, for instance sweeping the deck and trimming some bushes. Gorgeous place, could benefit from a touch of TLC. Slept well here and was able to prepare tasty meals in the kitchen. Happy we chose this property for our long weekend.

We loved the natural beauty of the house. The pictures we took on property were amazing. Our Familymoon started out perfect with this living space and the sound of the creek just behind the house was the best. Owners had great communication, place was clean, and it was not too far from activities.

Refreshing!!!
My husband and I were hoping for a quiet place to refresh, and we found it in this property! It was so lovely to sit on the deck and enjoy nature with the sound of the rushing creek! Communication with Charity was constant and clear! Nearby activities (Rifle Falls and horseback riding in Glenwood Springs) and delicious restaurants (Miner’s Claim in Silt and CO Ranch House in Glenwood Springs) made our long weekend perfect! Highly recommend!

Remote getaway in beautiful setting
This property is a bit out of the way and rustic but very charming and we enjoyed our stay. Loved the sound of the stream at night and all of the indoor and outdoor entertaining space. There was even a ping-pong table and foosball in the unfinished basement which we enjoyed. Bring your own paddles and balls as the equipment is on its last legs.

Very nice, peaceful cabin.
My family plus dogs stayed here in March. We had a great time. The cabin was spacious and clean. We enjoyed the game room and the peacefulness of it all. It was so nice falling asleep to the sound of the stream outside. My son and I drove into Aspen/Snowmass every day which was a bit of a trek (probably about 1 hr 15 min each way) but we got used to the drive quickly and actually enjoyed it as a way to wake up in the morning or decompress at the end of the day. The traffic wasn’t bad either (a little on the way back, but nothing major). All in all, a lot of bang for the buck here. Shopping is close enough - Walmart, etc. The restaurant in town “Miner’s Claim” is off-the-hook. Highly recommend it. Just make sure you make reservations. As mentioned in other reviews, cell service didn’t work for us (AT&T) but the house Internet worked great the entire time. WiFi calling worked fine too.

Perfect secluded retreat
We went for a relaxing girls weekend and loved it! We arrived finding deer in the back field! The house is very unique! Definitely built with love! It has plenty of outdoor space to relax and listen to the creek! It has a little reading nook upstairs for cold days that is a great view of property! The chairs however were not that comfortable but still a cute space! I booked again with my husband for summer because it has to be beautiful with everything leafed out! The host was super responsive and told us about the homes history! Great stay!

Ski trip with grandchildren
Cabin was true to pictures. What a unique place. I was easy to get to actually from I70, but definitely off the beaten path. Comfortable for all of us to stay. Had what we needed ot be comfortable. When we had a fire alarm malfunction, we got a quick response to get it repaired. Would definitely recommend this cabin for a relaxing and comfortable stay.

Off-the-grid experience
Pros: This is a very unique cabin that was clearly made with love and care. I was impressed with it's cleanliness and everyone enjoyed the deer that would walk by every morning. Cons: There is no cell service so you're in the dark until you're at the cabin and logged into their wifi. The wifi went out on our second day for about 24 hours. Charity was helpful but it we had to drive the 30 min to Glenwood Springs to use wifi to inform her of the outage. So just be aware how off the grid you may be and plan accordingly. Speaking of, bring a firestick for the tv if you want more than Netflix (earlier generation of the app).
