About this property

Hand Built Log Cabin On River - Three Bedrooms, Two Bath On Private 15 Acres

Our cabin is set in paradise, on the banks of the Conejos River. Sitting on over six acres, you are sure to enjoy a quiet getaway. Whether your intentions are to get out and explore, hike, hunt, fish, backpack, snow shoe, cross country ski, snowmobile or simply relax, this place is it! There are so many opportunities in the area for any outdoor enthusiast, I am confident you will return. The cabin itself is hand built from solid logs, and offers enough space to fit 8 adults in beds. There are also three bedrooms, two baths, a large kitchen, and a nice living room inside making accommodation for a group this large easy. There is also a nice, covered deck to enjoy the nice weather under. For those who need to stay connected, we recently installed fast and reliable fiber internet to the cabin.

*Fly fishing on the property is only allowed with a guide/rod fee.

Another great visit and stay at the cabin on the river. This was our third time in as many years to enjoy the foliage change while enjoying wonderful accommodations. Look forward to our stay next year.

We absolutely loved this cabin! We stayed for 2.5 weeks. The property is well kept with areas mowed so you can wander around. The cabin is well equipped with everything you could need. The location right on the river is awesome! We left the windows cracked at night so we could hear the sound of the river. It feels like you are very remote, but you are only 10 minutes from a grocery store, a couple of restaurants, and the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad, which is a lot of fun. We will definitely be back!!!

Beautiful property

This was our second time staying at the property and it was just as great as before! Clean, private, everything we needed for a great fall getaway. Property owners are very nice and helpful, we'll be back! Love the fact that no neighbors are near and the river is right in front of the cabin.

Mogote Cabin

We have stayed at the Conejos cabin many times. This visit was excellent as usual. Cabin very comfortable and quite clean. We volunteered for the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad during the week and spent relaxing evenings sitting by the Conejos River.

Very nice 'cabin'. Sweet setting

When we arrived the house had no power due to an unusual May snow storm. We communicated with Joe who was great - and we bailed and drove 40 miles to stay in a motel that first night. Power was restored and the rest of the trip went smoothly. Would be 5 star, but some plumbing fixtures could stand to be updated. Wood stove was awesome and there was ample dry wood. It just takes a while to learn how to regulate temp properly.

Truly beautiful cabin, great for families

The photos of the cabin do not do it justice. It’s such a beautiful cabin, very clean and well kept. One bathroom has a tub, which was great for the kiddo. We played poker and other games they had available. The sound of the river just a few steps away was a highlight of the trip. We do wish you could just pay a rod fee to fish on the property without hiring a guide everyday, but definitely understand the reason they require guides. Water temps and levels need to be monitored closely in certain conditions. The owners were very helpful and we appreciate Joe and Kass opening up thier cabin to guests. We hope to be back! -Wilsons

Property is in a beautiful location and gorgeous setting. Weather was great for the week we were there. The craftmanship of the cabin is unbelievably good. Attention has been given to nearly every detail. Spent the week there with my wife and all of my grandkids (oh, and my son & his wife). We had a great time at the cabin and surrounding area & attractions.

Our Stay on the Conejos

My wife and I greatly enjoyed our stay at Joe and Kass’s cabin. We are VRBO Premier Hosts and can truthfully say that their cabin was as advertised, very clean and neat, and comfy. Being right on the river was an added bonus. We would highly recommend them to anyone!

Cozy Cabin

The cabin was warm and cozy, allowing us to enjoy the snow outside knowing that it would provide a nice rest after. The wood stove was especially fun and easy to use, and it was cool to see since it's not something you typically find. If you would like to watch movies or shows while you're staying here, I'd recommend bringing your own TV and laptop to connect. Although there aren't many restaurants in the small town of Antonito, definitely check out Dos Hermanas for authentic Mexican food that's fresh and delicious. Side note, there are no washer or dryer in the house, but a laundromat is very close by in Antonito. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! If you're looking for a quiet getaway surrounded by lovely mountains, this is the perfect spot.

Beautiful property, clean and organized. We chose it because of its river front We are fishermen but found out late that guests are not allowed to fish there. So extremely disappointing. Pay close attention to what you rent.

Hunting

My son drew a youth hunt in Tres Pierdas, with the cold temperatures we wanted to stay somewhere nearby, warm and comfortable. This cabin did not disappoint, it was cozy, spacious and a perfect fit for our family of 7. There’s plenty to do with or without the provided Wi-Fi, board games, card games, outdoor fire pit, or simply sight-seeing near the river. We enjoyed our stay, my son was able to fill his tag and we hope to come back again in the summer or on the next hunt. Thank you for the awesome place and the memories!

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Manager

Host profile image
Kass and I are avid outdoor enthusiasts. We love spending as much time as possible at our cabin, and enjoy every moment. When not at our home or our cabin, you can find us fishing, hiking, camping, rafting across Colorado and other western states.

Why they chose this property

Mogote is a true jumping spot to all that Southern Colorado has to offer. It is far enough away from the hustle and bustle, that it begs for folks to come and relax.

With ample activities close by throughout the year, there is always something to do. During the warm months, the cabin is a great spot to enjoy the plentiful sunshine while:
-Fishing on miles and miles of both public and private water
-Hiking/Backpacking on endless trails to remote areas of the South San Juan Wilderness
-Hunting (Located in Colorado GMU 81, and 10 minutes from New Mexico unit 52)
-Four Wheeling

During the winter, there is no better place to stay in order to be close to:
-Snowmobiling (Cumbres Pass is ~30 minutes away and Chama, New Mexico is about 45 minutes)
-Cross County Skiing
-Snow Shoeing

What makes this property unique

The Conejos River offers miles and miles of public water from the cabin up toward Platoro Reservoir. There are also numerous private water locations which offer unique chances to catch some of the largest rainbow and brown trout in the state. Fly fishing is available at the cabin, but requires paying a rod fee and hiring a guide. Please let us know if you intend to fish at the property, so we can ensure availability and booking of your guide.

There are also countless hunting opportunities nearby. Being only 10 minutes from the New Mexico border, this cabin offers a great location for both Colorado and New Mexico hunters.

Other outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy beautiful cycling, hiking, backpacking, cross country skiing, snowmobiling and more.
