About this property

A true mountain getaway! Secluded, rustic cabin beaming with charm!

Brecken Haus is the perfect mountain getaway home. This cabin offers rustic, cozy, charm. Brecken Haus was hand built over several summers and completed in 1973.
We are extremely proud of the sustainable materials used to build the home, both for their rustic beauty and minimal environmental impact.
The 1st bedroom has a queen bed. The second bedroom has a queen bed and a bunk bed with two twins. There is one bathroom with a shower on the lower level.
The upstairs level has many amazing windows, a seating area, a full kitchen and a centered fireplace. Off of the living room there is access to the large deck with stunning views of Baldy mountain and the surrounding forest.
There is a propane grill for guests use and a large supply of firewood. The cabin has free Wi-Fi and the TV comes with YouTube TV with over 85 channels to choose from, everyone in the family will have something to watch. Only 3 miles to downtown Breckenridge (a 10 minute drive). There is amazing access to hiking trails right out the front door; Spruce Creek Trail and Crystal Lakes Trail are nearby!
Important information:
We highly recommend an ALL-Wheel or 4x4 vehicle with proper snow tires during the snowy season.
The antique stove has a working stove top, the oven is currently out of order.
Please see the information binder in the home for instructions on how to operate the fireplace and other important things to know.

4WD or AWD vehicles are required in the winter; snow and ice will be on all surfaces including driveways and roadways - no refunds will be granted for improper vehicles. This home is near 10,000 Ft. please plan for high alpine environment conditions all year.

Beautiful Home and Great Location
We really enjoyed the seclusion of the home yet just a few minutes from Breck. I would love to give this place a 5 star rating but the water pressure in the shower is really not acceptable and it has a bad smell. I'm all for water conservation, but this was barely a steady stream. The beds were very comfortable and clean. We loved the back patio deck overlooking the beautiful forest. It's a lovely home.

Quaint quiet cabin
We had a wonderful stay at this unique amazing cabin. Everything was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The deck is private and has a gorgeous view of the mountains. During our stay the area was very quiet with visits from various wildlife. My only complaint is the bathroom sink water pressure is very low. Made it a little challenging to rinse my hands. Otherwise this cabin is awesome!

Winter Wonderland
When we got in late after a long day of travel due to snow, we were confused when we pulled in. Then we walked down the path to the home and we were smiling at how beautiful and tucked back in we were! The house was perfect for us! Everything was clean and simple. We skied everyday and it was a perfect distance to town! We would definitely stay here again, and hope to!

Very quite and peaceful
We had a great stay very rustic and quite cabin. Saw lots of wildlife and enjoyed the peace and quite. Only minor issue is the rooms got very bright when the sun started to come up. So if you are light sensitive you will be up early. Not a bad thing but just be ready.

Good rustic option near Breckenridge
Positives: This property is only a few miles from downtown Breck and close to some trailheads; we enjoyed the upstairs (living area, kitchen, deck); the cabin has lots of windows to take advantage of a wooded lot; good internet; price lower than many other rentals in this rural neighborhood. Things you should know: Cabin is rustic and in need of some maintenance, in my opinion. You must weigh this against the price and your own expectations/tolerance to decide if this is a good option for you. Some examples: cellular shades on lower level (bedrooms and bath) do not all raise/lower properly; carpet is old and wall paper is peeling on lower level; lots of spiders, ants, and cobwebs. Check out procedure says to run the dishwasher before leaving, but there was no dishwasher. There was also no dish scrubber or dish rags for hand washing of dishes, yet there were dishwasher pods below the sink for the non-existent dishwasher. Be aware that the spiral staircase leading to the upper floor from the entry foyer is very steep and has small steps. However, the top level can also be accessed from the outside by climbing conventional stairs to the deck.

Excellent property with tons of character
The property is in a great location just south of Breck. The cabin had tons of rustic charm and suited our needs perfectly for a trip to the mountains. Within an hour or so to all the major resorts. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. The stove/fireplace was great and the views from the back deck were beautiful. Fantastic stay.

Unique, quirky, quiet, and convenient
Very unique cabin in a secluded setting with many unique features. If you’re after a polished house without character then it’s probably not for you. If you enjoy a dose of quirky design and a serenely quiet environment then you’ll love it. Great deck. Bull moose “Marty” wondered through and even plopped down for a rest. Close enough to Breck for convenience yet far enough for solitude. Thanks for the stay!

Reviewer Comments: - Easy check-in and helpful staff of Alpine Meadows Management.- Clean house, comfortable beds, and adequately equipped kitchen. - Close to town and close to trails!We were able to do some long hikes and bike rides without having to drive to a trailhead. We also enjoyed using the deck very much - reading or just watching the peaceful woods.

The perfect mountain getaway!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It's hard to put into words how much we enjoyed this cabin and the location. Just far enough out of Breck, while being really close to nature. The cabin was clean and offered just the right amount of amenities to make it a "cabin" experience and not a luxury experience. Mornings and evenings spent on the deck treated us with several animal sitings from a safe and secure distance. We saw a black bear, a moose, foxes, deer and plenty of birds, squirrels and chipmunks. We're coming back!

Unique hand built cabin hideaway, great for a honeymoon, or quiet place for reflection
Very pleased with location and accommodations. Unique in that the cabin was hand built using recycled barn beams, windows from an auto dealership. It was secluded, yet very close to Breckenridge.

Secluded vacation
We enjoyed the house and location as it was secluded from the town. That was the best part. Some of the closets had other people’s clothes left behind, assuming prior guests. The oven didn’t work, which would have been nice to know ahead of time. We bought groceries as we drove into town, not realizing the oven was broken.

Great vacation
We had lots of fun at Blue River. It was beautiful learning the history of the parts of the house and where each piece originated. Finding the house in the midst of the snow was a little difficult as the snow was blocking the path to the house but otherwise great stay. Very much recommended.

Little cabin in the woods
If you’re looking for a rustic cabin in the woods in a serene setting, this is it! The location and charm of this old cabin is amazing but be sure to have AWD/4x4 in the winter. And watch out for vrbo’s fees that they now add to your booking!?!

Our Short Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I would like to thank Alpine Meadows for understanding our emergency. Unfortunately, we had to cut our vacation short due to our daughter getting sick while in Breckenridge. We took a trip to the ER a day after we arrived, and Doctors recommended that we kept our daughter on oxygen the entire time. We had many plans, but the health of our daughter came first. We decided to pack up and leave, and management staff from Alpine Meadows were able to coordinate with Airbnb to refund some of our money. I was very surprised to receive the news a few days later. Thank you!!
