Floridians’ Dream Getaway!
Our stay was a truly magical winter vacation! The listing and photos accurately capture the stunning views surrounding the house—absolutely breathtaking. Coming from Florida, waking up to snow every day was a fun experience! The location is fantastic, with easy access to groceries, skiing, snowmobiling, and everything we needed. The house itself is spacious and thoughtfully laid out, making it perfect for a comfortable stay. Plus, the host was incredibly communicative and helpful throughout our visit. We highly recommend this place!

Perfect!!!
We booked this as a family vacation for spring break. Eric was an amazing host. He answered all questions quickly. Gave us places to shop and restaurants to try. (Randy's and Hernando's were very good). The house was more beautiful in person. Photos don't do it enough justice!!! The mountain views look unreal. Literally breathtaking. The house was loaded with enough toys and activities to keep the kids busy without having to go out, but the location is about 20 mins max from any activity if you choose to explore the area. I cannot say enough good things about this house and host!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

Awesome mountain getaway
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful mountain cabin. There were 12 of us, mostly adults and a couple doggo’s. The layout of the cabin is great. Main level master bedroom with attached bathroom as well as a half bath. Master bedroom was large with a very comfortable king sized bed. Two bedrooms in the basement (king and Queen) were also very comfortable and had another full bath. The loft is great for kids. The bunk beds and pull out couch weren’t very comfortable for the adults but the kid didn’t mind. Kitchen was well stocked with almost everything we needed to cook with, although we relied on the very nice French presses (yes, 2!) for coffee as there wasn’t a drip machine we could find. The Keurig was available as well but we brought coffee and enjoyed the French press instead. Plenty of silverware, some spices, lots of casserole dishes, pots and pans, mugs, cups and plates. Dishwasher worked great. Oven and stove are nice. It was even warm enough to grill and they provided an additional full tank of propane to use- we were very grateful for that as the tank on the grill was empty. The view from the deck was incredible and the front yard had enough snow to make a sledding track. Lots of fun!We had an issue upon arrival and the property manager was quick to respond and helped get it fixed as promptly as possible. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for helping us make wonderful memories at your mountain getaway.

Very nice home and very accommodating. We were a bigger group maxed out the home at 12 and we still had room. Enjoyed the view and the property having fun in the snow. One recommendation is you need a 4x4 vehicle to make it up the drive way. Other than that wonderful place and great host. Thank you!

Beautiful views and a wood stove
The place was beautiful and looked just like the pictures. It was well stocked, and even had kids' toys in a cute little loft area and several dog beds. My senior dog spread out on one of those beds in front of the wood stove and basically refused to move for the entire week. The host was nice and easy to reach. It was a great location, nearby to two ski resorts and hot springs. The view alone is worth the stay (although if you stay here in winter, definitely make sure you have decent tires and either 4WD or AWD!). Great place for a family vacation.

Beautiful cabin/stellar views
Very fancy cabin, Sparkling clean. The view was stunning, super quiet and relaxing. Kids loved the loft full of toys they played up there for hours. The owners were on point with communicating when we had any questions or concerns. They really thought of everything to accommodate their guests. We had forgot our baby gate at home and to our surprise they had one in the master bedroom closet! Such a life saver 😮‍💨10/10 would definitely recommend this place to my family and friends!

Great place for a fun family vacation!
Our grandchildren squealed with exitement about the play area/loft, large bunk beds and how big the house was. Great accommodations for the rest of the family as well. We thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful view. The kitchen was well stocked (place settings, utensils, cookware, small appliances and pantry items). Pay attention to the refrigerator temperature and promptly notify the host if not acceptable. Overall, a great experience!

Breathtaking views!!!
If you’re looking for a true mountain escape, this is your place! This beautiful A-frame log cabin is equipped with everything you need for an easy transition into your vacation. There is plenty of space and my family and I were very comfortable. We spent a lot of time on the wrap-around terrace enjoying the fantastic weather and absolute spectacular views! This beautiful mountain home is quiet and private yet close to various amenities. We enjoyed time in the quaint downtowns of Winter Park, Fraser, and Granby, boating at Grand Lake, and horseback riding in Tabernash. Lots of great hiking spots nearby as well. Thanks to our great hosts for making check-in and check-out so easy and for being accessible at all hours!! We will definitely be back!!

Perfect cozy cabin with stunning views!
This cabin is the perfect place for a getaway in the mountains for a ski trip or just to enjoy the Colorado landscape. Eric had the house thoughtfully set up for guests and comfortable for a large group of people. The cabin is in a great location, and we easily explored the surrounding area. Not far from Winter Park Ski Resort, Hot Sulphur Springs, Grand Lake and Rocky Mtn. National Park. Highly recommend this place, all of our out-of-town friends couldn't stop raving about the cabin and the views!

Excellent house with spectacular views
Great property! Everything we could think of was provided. We were on a ski trip to Winter Park, the resort is less than 30 minute drive away. Extremely cold and windy week, the house was nice and warm. Views are exquisite. Log house, comfortable bedrooms and kitchen, lots of extra space on all three levels. Secluded location. It can be hard to reach the house and get out in a snowstorm, but the host arranges timely plowing services for the driveway, and the county roads are well-maintained. In winter walking around is limited to the roads, but our dogs did not seem to mind. The host always responds quickly to all concerns. Thank you, Eric!

The cabin was fantastic! Great location with spectacular views (as advertised)! We had a very memorable family getaway. Would definitely return. The only reason our rating is not 5 star was because the cabin was a little messy and it was obvious the cabin had not been thoroughly cleaned prior to our arrival.

One Week At Top of the Mountain Lodge
We very much enjoyed our family vacation stay. There was plenty of space to accommodate 8 people, both together time and alone times. The lodge was well stocked with dishes and kitchen essentials. It was a great location for day trips to Granby/Grand Lake, Breckenridge, Leadville and Rocky Mountain National Park. It is close to shopping, dining and other activities in Fraser/Winter Park. Note that there is not cable TV available as listed. TVs and internet are available for your streaming services.

Accomodations for extended family
We had a family reunion in this home. There is a great balance of public and private spaces. We never felt crowded. And the view from the deck is amazing. The neighbors are distant enough to feel private, and close enough so you don't feel uncomfortably isolated. The owner was very responsive. I highly recommend this property.

Finally, A Keeper
We are a group of six gamers and golfers (old high school buddies) who have been visiting the Frasier Valley to play golf at Pole Creek and get away for the last 30 years. Our favorite rental property was sold in 2014, and we have been looking in vain for the last 8 years for the perfect replacement. Finally, we have a keeper. Top of the Mountain is clean, uncluttered, and well appointed. The bedrooms are comfortable, the common space is well laid out for gatherings and games. The views are breathtaking. It was a unanimous decision that we will be back next year to enjoy this wonderful rental.

Family reunion
Great property! We had planned lighted bocci ball and horseshoe tournaments for evenings but were unable to play due to county regulations of NO OUTDOOR GAMES AFTER 7 pm. Or any music on deck after 7. Very strict noise regulations for a vacation property. I feel like the county regulations about quiet time 7 pm to 7 am should have been disclosed prior to our arrival. That is the only flaw in this otherwise perfect home in an absolutely perfect area . 10 pm is more typical for quiet hour start. In summer it’s not even dark at 7. In winter it wouldn’t have been a problem.

About the host

Hosted by Eric Richards

Host profile image
We are a young family who built this awesome home. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. My favorite thing to do in this cabin is watch the sunrise with a hot cup of coffee. From the same chair I can watch the sunset with a beer.

Why they chose this property

We shopped all over the Fraser valley for the right lot. After a long search, the right opportunity came along. We are amazed how much the view changed(for the better), after we built the home. We love to hike and bike and ski and fish and hunt in this area of Colorado.

What makes this property unique

If you have kids or Grand kids, this home is for you. We built this home with our 2 young sons in mind. The loft with toys, the bunk beds, the hiding spaces, and the larger lot gives kids the opportunity to be kids. The proximity to everything makes this the IDEAL home for any season.

During the winter we highly recommend you drive an all wheel drive car or 4 wheel drive equipped car. The county does a good job of keeping the roads clear, but ice and drifting snow can occur.
