The owner was very responsive both prior to and during our stay. We had a wonderful time hiking some of the local trails. The cabin was perfect! Some of our group went to the local casinos, which are very convenient.
This cabin was a wonderful launching point for our Colorado trip. We had everything we needed to feel at home when we returned each night from our travels.
We had a wonderful time at the cabin! The location was great and all the details of the cabin were amazing. Every morning we woke up to hummingbirds and fresh mountain air. Great place to stay !
Beautifully remodeled cozy cabin in the clean crisp mountain air. We loved the outdoor space with the fire pit and all the thoughtful details like the humming bird feeders.
Our stay at the Mountain Cabin was great ~ the cabin is awesome, they have thought of everything you may need, super quick to respond. Would definitely recommend this cabin to family and friends 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Beautifully renovated cabin with everything you need. I have used VRBO for a long time and this was by-far the best place that Ive stayed.We got a lot of snow, so we didnt get to use the outside patio area.I was able to cook a wonderful meal in the kitchen, as everything I needed was there.We had one small issue with the door/lock, and the host was able to fix the situation in a matter of minutes. Im already planning to stay here again.
When I travel to hike I like to be able to cook my own meals, rest on a decent mattress, relax in an outdoor space, and feel like I am in a clean environment. This lovely cabin checked all those boxes for me. The host is very kind, attentive and helpful.
Everything about this property was as listed… And then some! Great communication with the property owner, amazing overall comfort and quality, great location to area hiking and activities. Surprise of snow fall enhanced the experience!
The cabin is all renovated and very nice inside. The beds were so comfortable. If you’re looking for a quiet remote setting just outside of BlackHawk this is the place to be! Highly recommend 🙂
This was a cute, quaint cabin in a great location for hiking and relaxing! The place was clean and the owner, Kelli, was great at communicating. We enjoyed our stay with our dogs here!
My wife and I stayed her for the weekend and were very impressed with how clean and up to date the cabin and amenities were. The communication with Kelli was always quick and easy. Would definitely recommend staying here for anyone looking for a private and cozy getaway.
The cabin was beautiful and perfect for a little getaway for us! It was very well kept with all the necessary amenities. We would definitely recommend this property. Thank you ❤️
My wife and I were looking for a peaceful romantic weekend together. This hit the mark.
Having a pair of moose casually pass by while having morning coffee was very pretty cool too!
A great little cabin for a quiet winter weekend in the mountains. The location is fairly secluded but not a long drive from popular towns and attractions. The inside is beautifully renovated and well stocked. Looking forward to visiting again!

About the host
Hosted by Kelli Nicholson
I'm a Colorado Native and love the process of creating beautiful, comfortable and welcoming spaces. I've always dreamed of having a cabin in the mountains and getting the opportunity to share it with others.
Why they chose this property
The cabin sits back off the road and overlooks the valley. It feels like you are secluded but you have modern conveniences close by and it's so easy to get to the main road. It is conveniently located just an hour away from Denver and 30 minutes from Boulder and close to many State Parks and trails. Hiking, mountain biking, gambling, skiing, dining and fishing are all close by.
What makes this property unique
The unique modern design is like no other but still feels very cozy and rustic. The home was originally built as a summer cabin by Denver residents in the 1950's.
