The Writers Nest is the Lower level of the "Rockridge Cabin". We never rent the upper level to other guests when the Writers Nest is rented. The Writers Nest is a 100% Separate fully equipped Residence with private entrance and its own dedicated parking. I use the completely separate upper level as our office and in the spring summer and fall I come and go often. You will never know I am here.
If you would prefer a completely stand alone Vacation Residence see one of our other 5 Evergreen Colorado Cabins and Cottages. But first see the many reviews from past guests about the Writer's Nest, many who have returned multiple times.

And Thanx for your Consideration

Michael was a great host, and he has maximized the space in this small cabin. The views were spectacular. The final few hundred yards of the drive up the mountain can be challenging in a two-wheel-drive car, even in the summer.

We had an awesome time staying at the writers cabin. We came into town for a concert at red rocks. The writers cabin was very quaint and gave a great little mountain escape for the weekend!

6 / 10Average·Aug 2024
Quiet and remote. We knew that we wouldn’t be spending a lot of time at the unit was good for the price better than standard hotel room. Listing was a little vague made it seem like owner uses upper residence as office comes and goes but essentially he lives there. Example: we hiked a lot had rainy conditions and washed our shoes that had been rain soaked for next day. Put them in shared laundry area dyer to be dry for next day (late night, around 11:00) and rather than calling/texting us, the owner opened/turned off dryer twice. Kind of passive/aggressive…A little outdated lots of dust kind of like there may be few renters. Layout could be improved. Bed is right in front of sliding doors up against window with no blinds so you’re waking up with the sun around 6:15am. If bed was in larger living area and couch and kitchen table moved to the front, would provide a bit more twighlight if you are able to sleep in and early risers could enjoy coffee and sunrise in the sitting area(if moved to the front of unit). Read rental agreement thoroughly as typically, you would think that paying a cleaning fee would not require extensive cleaning prior to check out(including changing beds), especially if you have an early flight out. Many of the dishes, coffee pot, and amenity items listed that had to be requested after arrival needed to be washed before use. Crumbs in silverware drawer and toaster(didn’t use). Consider bringing your own pillow.
