About this property

Secluded Mountain Getaway

Four Bedroom, two bathroom cabin at the base of Mount Princeton

This renovated four bedroom, two bath house is nestled at the base of Mount Princeton. This getaway is secluded on two plus wooded acres and sits at an elevation of approximately 8900 feet. As you approach the cabin, you'll notice an amazing 1000+ square foot deck. Perfect for relaxing, grilling and enjoying the spectacular views. Or maybe dining al fresco with a quiet cup of coffee as the sun rises. There is plenty of seating with two large tables on the deck. You can cook outside in our four burner gas grill. We also have two custom built Adirondack chairs to relax and maybe read a book. There is a stone deck below that has an outdoor gas fire pit and is partially covered to get away from the mountain elements. By the fireplace we have seating for two and a Hammock chair that you can swing on. There is string lighting on the patio to enjoy your relaxing quiet nights. The kids love it.

While here, you'll enjoy true Colorado cabin living. It is the best of both worlds, as you'll be privately secluded in the trees but yet close to many amazing locations and attractions. The cabin is short drive to beautiful hiking trails and picturesque reservoirs. The home is just under 8 miles to downtown Buena Vista, CO and twenty five miles to downtown Salida, CO. A quick four mile trek to the famous Mount Princeton Hot Springs and the amazing Chalk Cliffs. Several river rafting companies are within a ten minute drive and the Arkansas River. It is a forty mile drive to world class skiing at Monarch Mountain, fifty mile drive to Ski Cooper.

The main level of the home features a spacious living room complete with a wood burning fire place with a 55" smart TV. There is an extra large dining room table and additional seating at the kitchen bar. The kitchen appliances are all stainless steel, with a glass top stove, granite counter tops and a large farm house sink. The full bathroom is complete with a shower and bathtub. Master bedroom includes a queen bed with ample closet storage. The other main level bedroom (#2) features a full bed and also has plenty of storage. The bathroom on this floor is situated between both bedrooms.

The lower level of the home has two additional bedrooms and another bathroom. Bedroom (#3) has a full bed. Bedroom (#4) has a full bed with a twin bed that pulls out underneath. Every room has a dresser for storage. The bathroom on this floor is situated between both bedrooms. The family room has a wood burning stove and a game table. This room has a futon that turns into a full bed. There is plenty of storage for your ski and hiking equipment.

We loved this house. The kitchen and island were big enough for everyone to join in on cooking dinner. The kitchen, dining room, and living room are connected in a big space where we could spread out and relax. The deck is a huge extension of the indoor space. There's a view of the valley through the trees. Nice!

Perfect BV cabin

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was clean and well appointed. The location was great - close to town, but in a quiet and beautiful forest. Some additional outside seating would have been nice. Overall, great value for Buena Vista!

Property was awesome. It was clean, spacious, and everything worked properly. Our group could not stop complimenting the home. Location and access was easy. Owner provided clear and thorough instructions. View from the huge deck was awesome. The wives only complaint was that the bedroom doors squeeked, otherwise they loved the kitchen and bathrooms. Bedrooms were spacious and clean. This property scores higher than 5 stars. I would recommend this to everyone we know.Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home, we made memories that are going to last a lifetimeHector H.

Fabulous fall getaway

A wonderful home to stay in and from which to get to all the amazing hiking trails. Main living, dining and kitchen all very well appointed and relaxing. Easy to get to BV, Salina, many fourteeners. Also has a huge deck which was a great place to hang out. All in all, a home not to be missed!

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. It was perfect for our family to gather for my nephews wedding in the area. It is very beautiful there and comfortable. Everything was ready for us. It was nice to be able to cook meals and not have to eat out.

Great place!

We are a family of 5 with 3 kids 22 yrs old and up. Plenty of space to spread out. Kitchen was well stocked. Even lots of spices, oil, sugar. The frig had lots of condiments which came in handy. It was nice to have a gas grill on the patio. House was very clean and I'm picky about that. It's about a 15 min drive to Buena Vista but it was nice to be away from the town and feel like we were more in the woods. It's an easy drive. 10 minutes to Mt Princeton Hot Springs. We also went paddle boarding on Cottonwood Lake up Cottonwood pass which was really fun. Just get there mid morning to get a good spot and before it gets too windy. It's gorgeous!

Perfect location - secluded & peaceful yet a short drive to visit Mt Princeton hot springs, St Elmo, and Buena Vista shops & restaurants. Amazing mountain views. Beautiful cabin with all the amenities. Very clean. And the best wraparound deck! Parents and teens all gave it a 10/10. Looking forward to our next stay.

Lovely, quiet mountain cabin getaway!

This lovely quiet “clean” mountain cabin was a perfect weekend getaway. We greatly enjoyed the views of Mount Princeton from the patio by day and a crackling fire by night. Along with, Eddie was so gracious to quickly respond when I was needing help a time or two. ;) Thanks again Eddie! Your place comes highly recommended!
