About this property

Snowy Mountaintop Cabin w/ Fireplace + Starlink Wifi

"This location is absolutely breathtaking!" - recent guest review. Welcome to our snowy mountain cabin where you'll feel like you're staying in a real-life snowglobe! It is the perfect place to stay for all outdoor enthusiasts as you’ll be close to skiing/snowboarding, hotsprings, snowshoeing, ice fishing, sledding and more. After a long day of exploring, come home and relax next to the cozy wood-burning fireplace. You'll have no problem streaming your favorite show with our blazing fast Starlink wifi.

Location: Less than an hour from Denver, 20 mins to downtown Idaho Springs, and a 5 min walk to the St Mary’s trailhead (voted one of Colorado’s most scenic hikes!)

Our cabin is in a woodsy mountainside, at 10,000 ft in St Mary's Glacier, Colorado. This is a paradise for outdoor activities including hiking, skiing, sledding, hot springs, ATV trails and more! The famous St. Mary's Glacier Trailhead, known for its stunning alpine lake and glacier views, is just a short 5 min walk from our front door so you won't have to pay for parking. Let us be your guide to exploring the area's natural wonders, and we'll recommend the best places to visit.

We have a full-size kitchen with new stainless steel appliances but if you don't feel like cooking we're conveniently located 12 miles from downtown Idaho Springs where you'll find an adorable mountain town filled with many shops, restaurants, bars, and a grocery store.

Cabin Highlights:
Our goal is to make your trip as smooth as possible so we've made sure to include all the amenities you might need including a coffee maker (and coffee and tea), hair dryers, soap/shampoo/conditioner, fully stocked kitchen including spices and oil, pack and play, booster seat, board games, movies, and high-speed Starlink internet so you can stream your shows.

Bonus: we just upgraded to new stainless steel appliances so you'll have a full-sized kitchen for all of your cooking needs. Full-size refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, and microwave. We also have a propane grill outside.

***Things to note:
- Please note that our cabin is located at over 10,500 ft above sea level and may not be the best fit for those who are prone to altitude sickness.
- For stays during the winter months (Oct-May) a 4WD vehicle is required.
- Fun fact: We get over 300 inches of snow each year!

Ideal Getaway!

This place was word for word exactly as described in the advertisement. My husband and I stayed for 7 nights, taking advantage of all the nearby opportunities available to mountain cabin vacationers. Every night, and every morning one of us would say how perfect this place is! I highly recommend it!
