About this property

Mountain Hall: Unique Historic Cabin w/Large Deck

Mountain Hall was built in 1902 by John Rosborough and a neighbor as a music hall. Rosborough was professor of music for many years. People would gather for conversation and performances. Updated for comfort and usability, Mountain Hall still retains its unique charm. It features one-of-a-kind lighting and furnishings. The great room is an astounding 40 X 20, two stories tall, and includes an enormous fireplace, multiple couches and chairs, a 10 person handmade wooden dining table, and a loft with hand hewn log railing and small viewing deck. The 40 ft front porch has views toward Long's Peak, and plenty of seating. Kitchen just got a facelift with granite counters and new sink and faucet. Bedrooms are small but adequate. Bed 1 – king, Bed 2 – queen, bed 3 – twin, loft – 2 twins, living room – full sofa bed. One bath on the main floor. Second bath is in the basement with outside access. Gas grill. Three miles to Rocky Mountain National Park entrance.

Staying in one of our cabins is not like staying in a hotel or resort where you are surrounded by many other guests. It is your own space. Our property sits outside of town by RMNP, away from congested areas, with individual cabins. Here, you can take in the beautiful views and relax in the peace and quiet.

Fun Cabin

We enjoyed staying in this historic cabin. It had beautiful scenery and we woke up to many deer which was so nice to see. Would stay here again in the future.

Mountain cabin retreat

My husband and I spent the week here and absolutely loved every minute of our stay. The cabin’s great room is beautiful, and the fireplace really a key feature. The porch is incredible and the grill made for a really enjoyable time cooking out. It was great having modern conveniences such as the dishwasher, full bathroom, and furnace. If you plan to watch any TV absolutely bring your own DVDs as the internet connection isn’t great.

Historic Hall

Our family came for a visit to Rocky Mountain National Park and stayed at Mountain Hall. The location was perfect and our girls loved the property. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and the hot tub as well. It did get hot in the last day we were there but we were able to cool off the house with the exhaust and escape to town. Thank you for sharing this gem with us!

Historic Details

Our small family group appreciated the historic detail and decor. The rock fireplace was huge! Utensils for roasting marshmallows would have been nice. We sat on the scenic porch each evening. There were so many comfortable places to sit and relax. Very happy to see the addition of the granite countertops. The cabin was the perfect combination of private and conveniently located. We saw a few deer on the property during our stay. We would absolutely recommend this cabin and would happily stay again.

Great stay

The good points: Spacious common areas, with comfortable seating - the living room, dining, and porch. Lovely views from the porch and hot tub, and a stream nearby that you can hear when outside. Everything seemed clean and smelled fresh. With the windows open, the house was cool and there were plenty of fans. Plenty of pillows, towels, and blankets. The neighborhood was quiet. The two bedrooms were small but adequate, but the smaller one opened into the kitchen and into the bathroom, so it was noisy and you had to squeeze to get around the bed. All mattresses were comfortable, including the sofa bed. The down side: for adults, sleeping in the narrow loft or the curtained room off the kitchen were not great, but we knew this going in. The room off the kitchen had no heater and was cold at night (temps in the 40s). Floors are very creaky - light sleepers heard every step.

Historic hall turned cabin with large great room.

This is a large hall but pretty rustic. Lots of historic charm but not well appointed. There were bats in the entrance to the extra bathroom under the house, mice in the main house making appearances, the beds not comfortable, tiny kitchen, and due to a heavy rain, the back bedroom flooded soaking the carpet on all our personal belongings and clothes that were on the floor. The parking was barely adequate for 2 cars and access tricky past the other guest cabins. The great room heater controls did not work so the great room was hot during the day and cold at night as it’s not insulated which we knew when we rented it. We did enjoy the great room space and large front porch but much of the cabin is in need of repairs and updating. A better property to visit and appreciate for the historic rustic charm then to stay in. We will not rent it again unless the conditions are greatly improved.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 September 2023
Thanks for your feedback Stan. We got a historically large rainstorm while you were here. This is the only time we've ever had reports of flooding in the 10 years we've owned it. We did our best to address and mitigate the issue while you were here, with multiple on site visits. Additionally, please rest assured that we have continuous pest control that treats the cabin monthly throughout the year. We do our best to make sure no critters enter the cabin but due to the location and age of the cabin, sometimes it can still happen. We always address immediately. No evidence of bats were found and any mice issues have been addressed long ago. We have replaced the king and queen mattresses now, painted the twin bedroom, and are in the process of installing new kitchen counters. This is indeed a rustic mountain cabin with no insulation, only open during the summer. We try to make this very clear to guests. We also provide box fans and space heaters to help with temperature regulation. We are so sorry you did not enjoy your stay more. We truly want guests to have a wonderful time while they're here and strive to accurately represent the cabin. We will always be looking at opportunities to improve the property, while still maintaining the originality.

Perfect

What a fabulous and unique place to stay! Mountain Hall was perfect for our group. We loved having our morning coffee on the covered porch, meals at the long dining table, lighting a fire in majestic fireplace, soaking in the hot tub, etc. We appreciated the ample amount of towels provided and the well equipped kitchen. We would absolutely stay here again.
