The perfect get away

we had just an amazing experience staying here although we did not get to see a fox. Everything else was top-notch. It was secluded enough, giving us a true feel of a private cabin up on the mountain. The property was true to the listing. The host is phenomenal and stayed in contact the entire trip checking in multiple times with us 10/10 would recommend we will be back!!

Awesome Ski get away.

Great place to stay for a get away. Easy to find and was clean and well taken care of. Owner was helpful and accommodating. In winter recommend a 4x4 due to road conditions.

Fantastic Getaway

My husband and I came to the fox den with our two Golden Retrievers for a birthday getaway. The cabin itself is wonderful, updated, well appointed, cutely decorated, very clean, and cozy! The bed was SOOOOO comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was much better than expected. The fireplace added to the ambience and provided very sufficient heating. Despite staying over 2 snowstorms, we didn't have any major issues accessing the cabin. I will say we have a 4runner with excellent tires and I would heed Heather's warning about 4WD/AWD during the winter. I would not recommend any inexperienced winter drivers stay here, as we passed several accidents and people who had gone off the road - route 9 was closed off and on by the pass as well. The roads were plowed (and someone even plowed the driveway for us, thank you!!). Our dogs had a great time in the snow and we did see a fox in the neighborhood while we were here. We ventured out to Breck, Alma, and Fairplay and enjoyed local food and fun. Heather was an AMAZING host. She was very accommodating to us in case we ended up snowed. Her response time was lightening fast and she made sure we were taken care of. I would absolutely come back here to stay and would recommend this place to others!

Quaint and Quiet

Quaint little cabin. Very secluded and quiet. Just a few minutes up the mountain from the sweetest little town of Alma. Folks there were lovely. There's a well stocked general store, a bakery, a candy/antique shop and a couple of stationary food trucks. Otto's is AWESOME. The cabin was fine. We had hoped to explore the property some, but the snow banks weee still too high. Yes, it was memorial day. That is how high elevation is. We live at about 6000 ft and this 11,700 was pretty tough! It's no joke, so prepare yourself hydrate and take it easy. We had to adjust our adventures to allow us to acclimate. We are used to staying at 9-10,000 ft up, but this was noticeably harder on our bodies and our dogs. The road up to the cabin is seriously steep, with switchbacks. Just be aware. It's a very pretty area. I bet in full summer the nearby Montgomery Reservoir would be awesome but it was closed because it still had dangerous ice. Still beautiful to drive nearby. Make sure to head into Fairplay and check out South Park City and the open air museum of the ghost town, plus down the same road are some sweet little shops. The host Heather was wonderful. Great communication! Thanks for hosting our getaway.

Quiet Retreat Close Enough to Ski Daily

We has a wonderful stay at The Fox Den! The cabin was clean and cozy with lots of small details that made it feel homey. The kitchen was very well equipped, including essentials like coffee, tea, spices and condiments. We were able to make almost every meal at home. Our pets also seemed to enjoy their stay. We have two large Golden Retrievers so had to sacrifice some floor space in the kitchen for their crates but still had plenty of space to cook. The dogs enjoyed time outside playing in the snow and sniffing around for new smells. Heather, the host, did a great job of communicating with us and making us feel welcome. The only reason I didn’t give the location five stars was that the road to get to the property was tricky, only because of a recent snowstorm. The locals did a great job getting it cleared though so it was only a challenge for two days. If you are considering booking it for the winter, please take Heather’s warning about needing good tires or chains seriously! The other thing, which Heather also cautions people about, is the elevation. Please take this seriously as well! If you are in poor health or have breathing difficulties, this may not be the right place for you to stay. Having said that, the location deserves all the other stars for being beautiful, peaceful and yet convenient! We were able to drive to Breckenridge every day to go skiing! Each day we went down, took our dogs to the dog park, then parked in the Gondoka Garage and skied!

So cozy!!

This place is so cute and cozy. The TV doesn’t have any streaming services, so if you don’t want to watch DVDs from the 2000s then you should bring a device to connect. It’s a bit of a drive to get to from the highway but it felt so secluded from the world we absolutely loved it.

Adorable!

Heather's cabin was so adorable, clean, had everything we needed (extra linen, games, DVDs, bathroom supplies, kitchen supplies and common ingredients, and Internet good enough to stream Netflix to the TV), and had a surprisingly spacious kitchen! The three of us, me, my husband, and our golden, enjoyed the snow, the sled, and were very comfortable. Heather was also very responsive whenever we had a question. Thank you for being such a great host! I will emphasize that the altitude is no joke, even for someone who lives at 7400 ft. If you think that altitude might be an issue for you, you might want to acclimate to a lower elevation, like Breckenridge, for a few days before venturing to 11k ft. Thank you again, Heather! We really enjoyed your cabin!
