About this property

A Road Less Traveled High in the Colorado Rockies

Meek's Hill Cabin in Marble, Colorado is located at an altitude of 8000 feet in the midst of cool, towering pines, with views of 13,000 ft. peaks. Deer frequently wander through the property and bears have even been known to knock on the door. Feisty hummingbirds compete for their share of nectar from the feeder. Nature is literally on your doorstep! Since there is no light pollution in this small community, the starry skies will amaze you! In addition to this, you have all the comforts of a luxury condo. Our cabin is easily accessible but away from trains, planes and highways. Four-wheel drive is not necessary.

Marble, a very small community, is a great central location for exploring the beautiful places of western Colorado. Within a two hour drive you can visit the orchards and vineyards of Paonia, the stunning Black Canyon of the Gunnison River, Colorado National Monument in Grand Junction, the Roaring Fork River valley and Aspen, Independence Pass and the Snowmass Wilderness. Best of all, our own Crystal River Valley.

If you are looking for the perfect place to experience nature at its best, Meek's Hill Cabin IS the perfect place! Sorry, we cannot accommodate dirt bikes or ATV's. We are closed for the hunting season.

Beauty and tranquility

This beautiful home in the mountains was way more than we expected!! Marble is such a beautiful little town! Our hosts were so helpful in things to do around the area and attentive to every little detail in the house. The deck overlooking the mountain was our favorite spot to be. If you like to hike there are so many beautiful trails around Marble and surrounding towns. We definitely will be back again.

Charming, quiet, and beautiful!

I had the pleasure of spending a weekend in this lovely cabin - girls' weekend with very precious friends. The cabin has been recently renovated and the appointments are lovely; once the deck is complete it will be a WOW! We spent much of the weekend enjoying the view from the deck, from watching the sun rise over the mountain view to the amazing stars. If you are looking for a very quiet, private retreat - look no further!

5 Star Experience

We travel extensively and were totally pleased with our visit here. The view is exceptional, the cabin is spotless and surrounded by lovely flowers and hummingbirds, and the interior makes you feel like you are at home with beautiful decor and comfy furniture. The cabin is fully equipped with luxury linens and everything you need to prepare meals. The hosts are attentive, friendly and knowledgeable about Marble and the surrounding area. Our week flew by and we enjoyed every moment.

Perfect!

My husband and I stayed here while our daughter attended Treasure Mountain Bible Camp. It was quiet, peaceful, and the perfect place to get a respite from a very busy summer. The house is clean and very comfortable. We came prepared with a load of groceries and had all the cooking utensils we needed. Would definitely recommend! Thank you so much Tom and Kay for sharing this wonderful spot!

Wonderful get-away!

Tom and Kay, our hosts, have created a lovely spot to unplug and soak in the beautiful view and the silence of the valley. Sitting on the deck in the evening was a delight. They have thoughtfully furnished their cabin with everything we needed. The bed was comfortable with quality linens and lots of pillows. The kitchen was well stocked. We particularly appreciated their friendliness and their suggestions of places to go and things to do! Helped to make our mini-vacation just what we needed.

My husband and I wanted to get out of the city and away from the heat. This cabin, the owners and the entire community and experience was above and beyond our expectations. This property is only something to behold in person. That to say that the pictures do not do it justice. We are already talking about our return trip next summer.

Meek’s Hill Cabin

Enjoyed every minute of our stay! Tom and Kay are amazing and have really provided a perfect little place for anyone looking to spend some quality quiet time away from the noise most of us experience far too much. I really can’t say enough other than keep this area what it is. It is a clean and quiet community. It is not a place to be obnoxious or be noisy. There are many other places that cater to that!

About the host

Hosted by Kay Williams

Host profile image
Our love of Marble and the area around it goes back to the 1980's when we purchased our first property here. At the time, we believed this was the perfect getaway from our busy Denver lives. We have enjoyed our travels to Europe, South America, Mexico and throughout the U.S., but still appreciate Marble's beautiful and unique setting. Tom's career as an enrollment management consultant has taken him to colleges and universities across the country. Kay enjoyed a career as an elementary teacher. We now call Tucson 'home', but spend summers in Marble working in the gardens, playing with our two small dogs, reading and enjoying the great outdoors. We also enjoy hosting family gatherings at our Marble home.

Why they chose this property

After moving to Denver in the mid-1980's we bought a pop-up camper and set out with our young son to explore Colorado on weekend camping trips. Eventually, we discovered the Crystal River valley and Marble. We sold the camper, built our home and have never regretted it. The Crystal River valley is some of the the most beautiful, pristine country you will ever see. Fly-fishermen love the river. Hikers and horsemen love the trails. The back roads to Crystal City and Lead King Basin are a feast for the senses. Photographers can't get enough of the scenery, wildflowers and wildlife. We love it for the views, fresh air, great water and the occasional bear that wanders through the yard. Marble is special.

What makes this property unique

One RV camping spot next to the cabin enables friends, parents or in-laws to share your time in Marble. $20.00 camping fee for 2 people per night. Each additional person over age 12 is $5.00. Check out for RV is also 11:00 am. Electric and water, no dump station.
