Storybook Cabin with Private Stream on secluded acre with Grand Views of Canyon

Serenity would be the best word to describe this rustic 3-bedroom, 1 bathroom fishing cabin built in 1934 on 1 acre secluded just above the Poudre River surrounded by the Roosevelt National Forest. This is the type of charming and rustic cabin featured in story books that you read as a kid. Sipping coffee is often like playing musical chairs due to the numerous grand views to enjoy and appreciate from every angle of the property. By far the best view of Profile Rock in the Poudre Canyon. Amazing fishing in the Poudre River is just a 2-minute walk from your front doorstep. Enjoy listening to the mountain stream that runs along the back patio and side of the cabin during the spring, summer and early fall. 1 hour 10 minutes from Fort Collins, 2 hours from Steamboat Springs. Please note the 2nd cabin (bunk house) will never be occupied during your stay. The bunk house is only used by owners during their personal stays at the cabin. You will enjoy complete privacy and seclusion of the 1-acre property.

Fun and convenient restaurant, bar and general store 3 minutes down the highway. Perfect mountain getaway retreat to unwind and hit the reset button. Large, fully furnished kitchen with dining area, family room with wood burning stove, tire swing, numerous outdoor seating areas, including multiple decks and patios with 2 grills. Large sun-filled yard. Sleeping arrangements are as follows: bedroom 1 = 1 king bed with private deck, and bedroom 2 = 1 king bed, and a twin bunk with trundle.

Additional Notes: No pets allowed. Live TV/cable service not available, but we do have a TV, DVD player and a handful of 80's movies that you are welcome to enjoy. We technically have WiFi, but please understand that it is extremely limited and slow in this remote area. Faster WiFi & cell service "hotspots" available at nearby restaurant and general store. Tons of wildlife viewing opportunities include: mule deer, elk, moose, bighorn sheep, black bear, mountain lion, bobcat, squirrels, seasonal birds including hummingbirds.

Fantastic outdoor vacation stay
We loved the views from the cabin. It is right in the middle of beautiful country. So many trails and hiking to do with in minutes from the property. The kids loved the creek and climbing around. We had everything we needed. We did have some wildlife at night on the roof! We could hear something scampering around. We saw deer in the front yard one day and lots of hummingbirds and chipmunks. We had a great stay. It was the best mountain vacation experience we have had!

Christmas in the mountains!
My family and I had an amazing and fun time staying here. It was definitely isolated and it was a great place for my family to go back to a simplicity lifestyle. With no cable and spotty wifi, we were able to unplug from the technology world. We played board games(that the cabin had and others we brought), made a 1,000 piece puzzle that the kiddos picked before we headed to Colorado, and played in some soft white snow! We didn't see much wildlife but did the tracks in the mornings on the snow. The only thing that would have made it absolutely perfect would have been a washer and dryer, especially since the kiddos went through all of their clothes before the trip was over. It wasn't bad though, I just washed some clothes the old fashion way ;) We would definitely come back again and highly recommend to all who are wanting to get a way from it all and reconnect with nature. You will not be disappointed.

Everything was wonderful! However, I am visually impaired and would have liked to know about the steps. On the VRBO listing it should indicate that there are steps both going into the cabin and inside the cabin.

Great cabin for a fishing trip
This cabin was great for our fishing trip. The setting was perfect in a beautiful canyon with easy access to the river. The deck on the front of the house was perfect for grilling and relaxing after a long day on the river. As the description stated, this is a very remote place. Don’t plan on watching television or having great internet access. The Wi-Fi worked well enough to be able to send text messages and make internet phone calls. The water does have an odor due to sulfur even after following the directions left by the owners to flush the hot water upon arrival. We took the grill apart to clean the inner workings after a grease fire began shortly after lighting it. Once clean, the grill worked great. These were just minor issues and nothing that detracted from our enjoyment of this cozy cabin. I would book again for sure. Thanks for the great trip!

Peaceful Woods Setting
This really is a wonderfully updated old cabin with lots of options for watching wildlife, playing games in the yard, listening to / exploring the babbling stream, and lots of seating options outside for reading, painting and relaxing. Owner was very quick to respond to questions and to a concern we had.

30th Anniversary trip
We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary at this delightful cabin. It was a beautiful cabin & just the thing we needed to disconnect from the day to day grind. The cabin had everything we needed & was exactly as described & pictured. We enjoyed fishing, kayaking, hiking, seeing wildlife such as moose & deer, reading & relaxing. The fishing in the area was excellent! This is a beautiful area of the county. We enjoyed renting bikes in Steamboat Springs for the day as well. Highly recommend this cabin.

Perfect location! Quiet, serene, solitary, literally just perfect! Loved the fire at night and the creek is the most fantastic background noise!!! Exactly what was needed for a reboot from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We loved being unplugged and just enjoying the outdoors. The cabin was perfect everything we needed and just beautiful! Great location for a fishing cabin! Thanks for a great place to stay.

Would be five stars in the summer...
The cabin is in a spectacular location, is nicely decorated and has numerous pots / pans and dishes. We reached out to the owner while we were at the cabin and received prompt responses. We arrived in snow on a cloudy day in mid-April about 4:30 PM. There is electric baseboard heating and a wood stove. We turned all the base board heaters on high and started the wood stove. We just could not get warm. We sat under a blanket with our snow coats and ate dinner wearing our coats. By the time we went to bed, the cabin had only warmed to 60 degrees. The next day was better because there was sun streaming through the windows. We saw two mice in the dining room that evening, but were not surprised given the location. I can see this would be “five star” cabin in the summer, but we felt that we paid a lot of money to be uncomfortably cold.
