About this property

Quaint House in the Woods hiking trails, pet friendly and lots of privacy

Come relax in this three bedroom and 2 bath home. Located at the end of the road in a beautiful grove of pines and only minutes from the Mount Elbert trail head. This home has all the modern conveniences while offering a back country life style. Home is only 10 minutes to Twin Lakes and 25 minutes to Leadville. The breathtaking natural beauty of Colorado's largest glacial lakes, reflecting some of the nation's highest peaks, makes Twin Lakes one of the world's most scenic places. A fifteen-minute drive from Leadville, or hour-long journey over Independence Pass from Aspen, will take travelers to a peaceful world of pristine mountain landscapes. The Historic Village of Twin Lakes, once busy as a mountain transportation hub between Aspen and Leadville during the gold rush days, was described in 1885 as "the most charming summer mountain resort in Colorado." Very little has changed in Twin Lakes since then. In the event of inclement weather (ex: heavy snow, etc.) we will not be able to help with any vehicle issues. We recommend using 4-wheel and All Wheel drive vehicles to get to the property during these times. This location will meet all your needs.<>Lastly, we ask that you respect our highly valued water. Please be conscious of not watering outside, the length of your showers, how often you do laundry,etc. We thank you in advance for your efforts on this.Lake county license number 2025-077

Great cabin in the woods for a getaway

This was a beautiful location for a quiet home, tucked away in the backwoods of Twin Lakes, which was a perfect location for our group of friends to spend time in nature together. The seven of us fit comfortably among the rooms, and there was ample space for hanging out between the dining room, living room, and basement areas. We loved that there was a ping-pong table and a perfect amount of space to set up our projector for playing video games together. We did not notice that there was no WiFi included at this spot, so be prepared to log onto a hotspot or just unplug from the internet altogether while you're here. All in all, we loved this place and would recommend it again!

Great cabin nestled away

Great property in twin lakes. Cabin was quiet and met our needs. Only thing that would have been better is there was only one key to the house a second key would have been useful since we had two couples and separate cars but wasn’t that big of a deal.

Guest Comfort Not a Priority

The property is gorgeous, the cabin is a good family spot– it’s clear that guest comfort is not a priority based on the neglect of the rental, amenities, and lack of cleanliness. I feel robbed having been charged a cleaning fee because I had to clean so much throughout the entire stay. I am more than happy to pay for a service, we did not receive any of that service. I reached out to the host at the end of our stay about all of the issues with photo proof of said issues and never heard back, had to contact Vrbo. We determined other guests had the same experience in recent months after reading the guest book. The host offered to have the cleaner come initially to clean the toilet, but we already had cleaned so our kids could use it and didn't accept the offer. We found new issues everyday through the stay which made it quite stressful. We had so many issues I can’t list them all, major problems were, previous guest’s trash was left for us to deal with, dog poop bags included, urine covered toilet, dirty dishes in the cupboard, all the pans were unclean and caked in food, few paper towels provided, no clean towels--all covered in dog/human hair, damp mildew towels in dryer , body fluid stain on comforter, stagnant rotting food and water in the dishwasher– it was extremely unkempt and I spent a large portion of my trip cleaning their cabin just so it was sanitary for my family. Beds and pillows, still not comfy. Cool place, poorly managed.

Beautiful location Condition of house ok

The house is in a very quiet area with very little traffic on the roads. It was great for going on walks with our dogs and having quiet family time. There were some maintenance issues, window crank handles broken off, missing, dishwasher door spring broken (but dishwasher is functional), slow draining master bath, missing towel rack in guest bath. These things did not really bother me as I am not purchasing the house and we were there for a rustic experience. More serious issues are one smoke detector battery is gone, and the other detector is dangling (it is hard wired into house electricity but would not work if power went out). The cleaning was just ok. There were some cheerios on the living room floor and some short black hair on the sheets in the room my daughter slept in. (My long haired blond daughter) I think the hair came from the comforter and was most likely from a dog (black lab?) The cleaning fee was a bit high ($195) for the level of cleaning. We receved a bill for an additional $50 on the day we checked in. (After I had paid off the total) This additional fee was taken off after some back and forth with owner but it did stress me out a bit for most of our stay. Our kids had a great time with the ping-pong table and the interesting house layout. We went to the fish hatchery in Leadville and had some lovely hikes. Overall we had a nice time with only a few glitches.

We were pleasantly surprised to find more sleeping areas than listed. Our older kids had a blast in the lower level and everyone enjoyed the deck and natural lighting from the large windows upstairs. The cabin was nestled in the woods but close to anything we needed. Hosts were very quick to respond. I would absolutely stay again!

Inadequately supplied

The house is very nice but don’t look for anything over 1985 in the house. Everything is old and very used. Cooking pans are going to give you some teflon in your food. Forget using the cracked and uneven cutting boards or enough utensils for everyone. Don’t forget to bring your own toilet paper and paper towels. Ran out after first day. Oh and have fun taking all your trash to the dump stop where the code doesn’t work. That’s an adventure in itself! Not enough patio furniture so make sure you bring some chairs. Least to say you get what you pay for here! NO INTERNET!!

Family Vacation

Had a great time. One of the beds was broken, but made it work. Also towels were in the dryer when we got there, but it was more than a double load and they were still wet and had soured. None of this made our stay bad. My family had a blast and loved every minute of being there. Would stay again.

Property was very cheap so didn’t expect anything extravagant, but the property did not have basic supplies like trash bags or paper towels. There were only 5 clean bath towels, and all other towels and linens were wet in the washer and dryers. There were also dirty dishes in the oven upon arrive, as well as dirty appliances such as the skillet. Beds were clean, so that was nice!

Great cabin for family getaway

Cabin worked perfect for our family of 6 and the in-laws. Loft was great to give the kids some space after a long day of skiing. My only complaint is the master bed. It was really uncomfortable, on night 2 I ended up sleeping on the futon mattress in the livingroom which wasnt much better. My husband felt the same but no one else had issues with thier bed. We had a great time otherwise and the cabin was wonderful to use. Communication with owner was quick. Thanks for letting us use your vacay home!
