Welcome to The Velvet Moose, a cozy and whimsical creekfront cabin just 4 miles from downtown Breckenridge. We are a fully licensed rental, Blue River License #: LR25-000059.

The Velvet Moose is a warm and inviting cabin located directly on Spruce Creek, offering a rare combination of natural privacy and convenient access to Breckenridge.

Inside the cabin, guests will find upgraded lighting throughout, new kitchen appliances (fridge, stove, microwave), refinished cabinetry, and redesigned dining and living areas. The living room includes a Roku smart TV and high-speed WiFi for streaming and remote work. The bathroom has been modernized with a new vanity, lighting, flooring, toilet, updated fixtures, and a new tub surround.

A new furnace, new A/C, and a complete electrical upgrade ensure comfort and reliability year-round. Premium beds and linens create a restful sleeping environment after long days on the mountain or trails.

The cabin sits beside Spruce Creek, providing a peaceful setting for morning coffee, reading, or relaxing while listening to the creek. Guests will find trail access throughout the area, offering hiking, snowshoeing, and wildlife viewing. Moose sightings are common in the area.
