About this property

SAN JUAN RIVERFRONT LOG CABIN WITH NAT'L FOREST MTN VIEWS! *MAC'S HIDEAWAY*

Mac's Hideaway a log cabin home is the perfect cozy abode for a romantic and charming getaway or a family and friends holiday! This cozy home sits directly on the banks of the soothing San Juan River with almost 2 acres at the end of the Cul de Sac, and the San Juan National Forest across the river, so quiet and private. Our home located in the San Juan River Village has the perfect Pagosa location on the west side of Pagosa which is less populated and feels more like the real Colorado. The drive to town and the Hot Springs is only 6 miles or 10 minutes. Wolf Creek Ski Resort is just 16 miles or 20 minutes away and this is the most gorgeous and breathtaking drive in Pagosa! We are the nearest community to Wolf Creek Ski Resort and the only community on the river.

WOLF CREEK is known for having the "Most Snow in Colorado, Year after Year!" and the staff is great there as well as the skiing/snowboarding.
I must admit WC has the best Green Chili Burgers too, along with incredible powder and skiing all at very reasonable costs for both skiing and food.

View the SJ river from your beautiful private deck and log home, while listening to the calming and rapid sounds, as the river rushes by you. Relax in the bubbling Jacuzzi for 6, read a book while swaying in the hammock, fly fish, tube and kayak right in your own backyard.

Down the road in our neighborhood there is also a private stocked trout pond called Rainbow Pond for the young at heart to paddle boat, fish, kayak, float in a tube and paddle board. Fishing for Trout there is fun for kids! So walk down the road with your kids, their poles and experience old times like "Andy of Mayberry!"

Regardless of what you do, you will discover the peace of nature at MAC'S HIDEAWAY which is surrounded by 3 million acres of the San Juan National Forest.

We provide high speed wireless Internet, and Direct TV. There is Sony flat screen TV/ CD player/DVR in the living room with Bose speakers inside and out! There is also a small flat screen TV/DVR in the master bedroom and a flat screen TV in “The Trout” room.

Our home is completely furnished with loads of Southwest charm and warmth. Beautiful antiques, art, and handcrafted custom made log furniture, makes this home picture perfect! It has all amenities, washer, dryer, antique reproduction stove and oven, microwave and small appliances. It has an antique wood burning stove fireplace, circa 1890, which can be used for burning wood in the right season.

The Master bedroom has a queen bed, sitting area with a nice leather chair/0ttomam to sit, relax and read. There’sfull bath with an antique claw foot tub and shower with 2 sinks.

There is exterior loft outside the master bedroom door with futon and an additional dresser for your clothes. The loft is perfect for kids to hang, especially a pleasant spot for taking a nap or reading a book too! This is one of my favorite inside places to relax with the skylight to see the stars and a nice widow overlooking the river.

The second bedroom downstairs called the "Trout Room" has a queen custom made bed of Aspen and a sitting area with grandfather bamboo love seat.

The third bedroom downstairs called the "Bear, Deer and Elk Room" has a custom aspen log full bed. Children especially love this room but it works for big people too! The 2 bedrooms downstairs share a full bath in the hallway and it also serves as your guest bath.

Our deck is completely furnished with a 6 person Jacuzzi, custom handmade adirondeck chairs, log dining table and benches. There is also a hammock to relax, take a nap or read a book by the river in summer. Any season bring your favorite books!

My favorite part of the deck besides the Jacuzzi is the outdoor Kokopelli fire pit. We also have a Weber natural gas grill for all your delicious BBQ's in any season and a Weber charcoal grill too!

Plus, we have a campfire area in the yard during summer, fall and spring with handmade log benches for larger gatherings. Don't forget to bring your guitar for campfire sing- a - longs!

We hope y'all come and stay at our paradise on earth, "Mac's Hideaway" where dreams do come true! Once there, you'll never want to leave and you'll definitely want to come again and again!
We are so honored that we have had some guests that have been coming to Mac's Hideaway for 10-17 years and truly our home is their home too!

If you are visiting with a large group of friends Dancing River and River Lodge are located almost right next door to our home and also available for rent., plus other homes too! The owners are friends of mine that came to visit me and ended up purchasing their own homes because they loved our neighborhood and Pagosa!

In summer don't forget to fill the hummingbird feeders and sit in the rockers in amazement to watch them feed, especially in the early morning and at sunset! I love this activity! Mix one part hot water and 4 parts sugar and bring and then fill feeders. Any left overs can be refrigerated.

We know you'll enjoy and love our home like we do!
Best wishes ~ Mac

Wonderful House and Location

Incredibly comfortable house and outdoor space right by the river. This was the ideal location to stay for our Spring Break ski trip. The star gazing from the hot tub to wind down the day was the perfect touch.

Everything that was listed about the property was just like it was when we arrived. The log cabin and everything that went with it. The river was right off the deck. Fishing was outstanding. Everything in the house worked flawlessly. We will be back.

Perfect vacation on the river

We couldn't have asked for a better stay in Pagosa! The home was appointed with everything we needed, was spotless, and had so many extras. We loved having coffee each morning on the large deck and fishing just steps from the house. Mac was so kind and quick to respond when we locked ourselves out! Would definitely stay here again and can't wait to come back. For those looking to stay on the river, this house can't be beat!

MAC’s oasis on the river

We spent our 25th wedding anniversary at MAC’s hideaway. Everything about this place is perfect. Starting first with the excellent communication with the owner. The cabin is decorated perfectly. The back deck is where we spent the majority of time. It’s comfortable and peaceful. We can’t wait to go back!

Birthday in the Mountains

We celebrated our son’s 10th birthday while vacationing in Pagosa and this cabin was the absolute best place to stay! Right by the river with a pond walking distances to fish at. An amazing deck with a hot tub and all the amenities you could want. The cabin was full of unique deco that my boys thought were really cool. The owners could not have been nicer either. We will definitely be staying here again!

Eclectic cabin charm in the perfect location

MAC’s Hideaway was the perfect location for our ski getaway! Easy access to Wolf Creek and just a short drive to downtown Pagosa Springs, we were able to easily do and see everything we wanted. There was more than enough space for our group of 5, and the huge patio overlooking the San Juan river is gorgeous!

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Mary Ann Camacho aka "MAC"

Host profile image
Mac loves enjoying happy hour on the San Juan River at sunset and during the night while listening to the sounds of the river and stargazing above! I start my day out drinking my coffee outside too in the spring, summer and fall.
Our family lives in Miami, Fl. but my heart is always at our log home in the gorgeous San Juan Mountains and Pagosa Springs! I'm a full time realtor with Coldwell Banker in Miami. I have 5 wonderful children, and 5 precious grand babies, so escaping to our hideaway is a total delight for me and my family. We've had many years of making loving and happy family memories in our home, as we've watched our 5 children grow into adults and of course, we just keep getting older! Once in awhile, I love to sneak off alone or enjoy my girlfriend trips to our cabin, which both are amazingly fun, relaxing and pleasurable times! Now we are looking forward to enjoying our home with our precious grand children, so very blessed! I hope you'll love our home, as much as we do and create your family and romantic memories to last a lifetime! Love Mac & family!

Why they chose this property

I love that our home is on the San Juan River! Nothing better than to sit and relax while viewing & hearing the sounds of the San Juan flow by. You can fly fish and kayak right in your own backyard. Take a day or nightime soak in the Jacuzzi or take a nap in the hammock! No better place than our deck to sit with friends/family or read a book in solitude. There is a outdoor firepit for enjoyment or making smores after a nice BBQ dinner on the Weber natural gas grill. Incredible stars at night as you enjoy the Jacuzzi or a camp fire in all 4 seasons. Skiing-Jacuzzi-hiking-jacuzzi- San Juan River- Jacuzzi- Mountain views too! Got the picture? Heaven on Earth!

What makes this property unique

Enjoy soaking and relaxing in the Jacuzzi day or night as you gaze and enjoy the sounds of the San Juan River passing By you. I love to have an outdoor fire next to the river and sit in the gorgeous custom made Adirondack chairs either sipping my coffee or wine, depending on the time of day. There is nothing more peaceful and amazing than the constellation of stars each night as you sit out on our deck, you feel like you are in heaven! Our log home is so warm and cozy, filled with southwestern charm that just brings a warm embrace and smile to your face the minute you arrive! Memories made in our log home will for certain bring you back again and again! Cheers...MAC
