Experience the charm of a quiet, rustic cabin with all the comforts of a modern-day home. It’s cozily positioned in a secluded mountain escape, located high on Miller Mesa and just eight miles from town. It’s the perfect vantage point for stunning views of the San Juan mountains in all directions, as well as abundant wildlife including deer, elk, bears, and more. There’s even access to the National Forest, conveniently situated just down the road. If you’re seeking a tranquil entry into the natural world, this cabin is your gateway!
The Rustic is made to give the best of both worlds: Old-school allure, but plenty of modern comforts and conveniences. Indeed, “rustic” doesn’t translate into “roughing it!” You’ll experience ease as soon as you pull into the property. The circle drive supplies ample parking for family, friends, and off-roaders with trailers or multiple vehicles. And, the large, raised deck makes you feel like you are in the trees, with a perfect bird's eye view to watch the wildlife.
The cabin itself is made of rough-sawn, circular-cut lumber. Wooden beams throughout the cabin give a feel of mountain-chateau comfort. And, the combination of antique and modern furnishings will instantly put you at ease. Some particular features of the cabin include:
● An open floor plan, which includes the kitchen, dining, and living area.
● In the kitchen: Custom hickory cabinets, river rock pebbled backsplashes, and
black granite countertops, combined with new stainless-steel appliances.
● Two bathrooms on the main floor: the vintage guest bathroom used for the two
bedrooms upstairs, as well as the private master bathroom. The antique bathroom
has a gorgeous original clawfoot tub/shower combo, with a fabulous large cast
iron sink. The master bathroom also has an original antique sink with washboard
and a large walk-in shower with double shower heads.
● A master suite is located in the rear of the cabin on the main floor, allowing for
maximum privacy and a peaceful retreat from the rest of the house. Beautiful
French doors lead out of the back of the cabin, letting you enjoy the views of
nature and peaceful mountain living.
● A laundry room on the main floor is available for use.
● Two upstairs bedrooms; one queen size bed and one king size bed with a heavy
privacy curtain covering the door way in between both rooms.
● A sledding slope on the property is a huge favorite for our guests and keeps the
whole family entertained for hours.
Staying at The Rustic gives you everything you could ask for in a mountain

The property does have outdoor cameras. There is a camera to the left of the front door facing out towards the road, that covers the front yard and parts of the driveway. It reaches 100 ft towards the road. The second camera is a door bell camera that covers part of the porch looking out towards the front yard about 30 ft. The camera in the back yard is to the right side of the master bedroom and spans out about 100 ft thru the back yard. Cameras are only accessed if a guest, neighbor or property manager deem an issue that needs to be reviewed.
