STUNNING Mountain Views! Very clean house. My husband built our house and we were both impressed with the construction. Drove our Ford Edge and we made it, but the roads to it are something else. If it’s a rainy/snowy time you’d be wise to have 4WD. Be prepared to climb up and down the steep steps to the bedroom. (More doable than anticipated.) Brought our own washcloths and extra blankets as we learned from previous reviews. We rode the Argo gondola in Idaho Springs and were pleasantly surprised that the views from our rental were better!

it was amazing! the views are breathtaking!

This place does have stunning views and is a very creative build. While it was great for my husband and I, I do want to warn that there are very steep ladders to the two bedrooms that have King beds. This doesn't seem like the right place for an older couple or kids. There is not a King bed downstairs nor are the two queen beds up in the loft. Just FYI. At the time of my listing, it said there was a king bed and show a pic of the room downstairs. The bathroom was small but didi great- there are no washcloths or hairdryer- but plenty of towels! It did list laundry service but there was no washing machine- must have been a mistake because when I inquired about it, the owner was a litter perplexed that it said that. Checking in was a little confusing, you enter through a "vestibule" where we hung our coats- so don't leave anything valuable there because those doors don't lock. The locks are on the door to the left where the kitchen and TV and loft are and the other side is another room that locks. There is no dishwasher- which is fine too- but the place has very limited space. I know it sleeps 6 but I don't know how you would fit 6 people at the table because there are only two chairs and there is a love seat sofa. Internet was pretty good so my husband could work and the fire pit on the deck was a nice touch. The area is great- close to many of the small cities and easy to get to the grocery store in Idaho Springs. Good stay.

The view was AMAZING! Nothing better than watching the sun set over the mountains. The actual cabin was rather small and chopped up into 2 separate areas. The master bed is up a steep ladder in the loft. The kitchen/living room were very small. Very little counter space. Had a “bar island” as the only eating area but only had 2 stools. Only had a small couch to sit on so all 4 of us couldn’t even hang out in the living room together. 1 very thin blanket to use on the couch, so bring your own if you want to feel cozy. The other 2 bedrooms were in a separate area that’s only connected via the “breezeway.” Not much decor on any of the walls. No washer/Dryer so be prepared to have enough clothes to last your whole visit. Would definitely recommend a 4x4/AWD vehicle. We were there in the summer and it rained a lot so the dirt road was somewhat washed away and steep to pull up to the cabin.
