The BEST getaway location!!!

I can not say enough good about the entire process - from booking, to communication from the host, to the environment - all top rate!!!! The home is gorgeous and spacious - exactly as described and shown on the VRBO site. The host texted a few days ahead to communicate specific directions, and even met us to lead us to exact location. Overall, a perfect weekend!!

Quiet retreat

Perfect home if you want to get away from the bustle of a busy vacation season. It was so quiet and so peaceful. It is a bit of a drive if you're planning a lot of activities in town but it was worth it to us.

Hate to really detail how wonderful the stay was or we will not have availability in the future. Pure relaxation in a spacious setting and scenic area. Loved sitting on the porch having coffe in the morning.

Wonderful!

What a wonderful getaway. I decided to rent this property for a long weekend based on others' positive reviews, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The location, although off the beaten path, was a welcome change of pace from busier areas along I-70. It was also easy proximity to several state parks in the area. And Shelia was extremely welcoming and helpful! The place was beautiful and well stocked in terms of kitchen cooking utensils, towels, sheets, etc. (everything you would need). We felt really fortunate to get to stay in such a nice home and my two nieces loved exploring the property.

Such an amazing stay!

We loved this place so much! It is off the beaten path quite a ways - as it says, you are deep within a cattle ranch property - but that was just what we were looking for. Lots of peace and quiet with beautiful views - even saw a herd of elk with babies down by one of the ponds onsite. Sheila the hostess was a treat to work with and came to the end of the driveway late at night to help us navigate the property to where we were staying to make sure we got settled in well. We also got to see her and her team herd some cows, which my teens enjoyed. The home was even prettier in person and quite spacious, more so than I thought it appeared online. There was a grill onsite and several pans so we were able to cook a few meals there too. We will definitely stay again next time we’re in the area!

Best cabin on Earth

This is a beautiful cabin, located on a working ranch. The views are amazing, as are the hosts. We will definitely stay here again. The pictures do not do justice. This cabin is secluded and awesome. Loved seeing the Elk every morning from back porch as I enjoyed my coffee. Also, amazing sunsets.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We are a ranching family that has been working the land and raising cattle here for over 40 years. This house is accessed by driving through the original ranch that is still in full operation. You can expect to see cows and often calves in the fields for much of the year when you drive through.

Why they chose this property

This property completes the main ranch, making one large parcel that is now bordered much of the way around by public lands. It was acquired when the previous owner decided to move to a warmer climate and has made this ranch even more special.

What makes this property unique

The views of the valley and seclusion of this beautifully built home are unparalleled. The home's spacious rooms are inviting and the large windows allow for enjoyment of the views. There are resident deer and elk populations that you can expect to see at certain times of the year, and there are trails available for exploring the surrounding area. If you are visiting us in the winter be sure and bring your cross country skis, snowshoes and sleds as there are hundreds of acres to explore.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
