Quaint House in the Woods hiking trails, pet friendly and lots of privacy

Come relax in this three bedroom and 2 bath home. Located at the end of the road in a beautiful grove of pines and only minutes from the Mount Elbert trail head. This home has all the modern conveniences while offering a back country life style. Home is only 10 minutes to Twin Lakes and 25 minutes to Leadville. The breathtaking natural beauty of Colorado's largest glacial lakes, reflecting some of the nation's highest peaks, makes Twin Lakes one of the world's most scenic places. A fifteen-minute drive from Leadville, or hour-long journey over Independence Pass from Aspen, will take travelers to a peaceful world of pristine mountain landscapes. The Historic Village of Twin Lakes, once busy as a mountain transportation hub between Aspen and Leadville during the gold rush days, was described in 1885 as "the most charming summer mountain resort in Colorado." Very little has changed in Twin Lakes since then. In the event of inclement weather (ex: heavy snow, etc.) we will not be able to help with any vehicle issues. We recommend using 4-wheel and All Wheel drive vehicles to get to the property during these times. This location will meet all your needs.<>Lastly, we ask that you respect our highly valued water. Please be conscious of not watering outside, the length of your showers, how often you do laundry,etc. We thank you in advance for your efforts on this.Lake county license number 2025-077

Guest Comfort Not a Priority
The property is gorgeous, the cabin is a good family spot– it’s clear that guest comfort is not a priority based on the neglect of the rental, amenities, and lack of cleanliness. I feel robbed having been charged a cleaning fee because I had to clean so much throughout the entire stay. I am more than happy to pay for a service, we did not receive any of that service. I reached out to the host at the end of our stay about all of the issues with photo proof of said issues and never heard back, had to contact Vrbo. We determined other guests had the same experience in recent months after reading the guest book. The host offered to have the cleaner come initially to clean the toilet, but we already had cleaned so our kids could use it and didn't accept the offer. We found new issues everyday through the stay which made it quite stressful. We had so many issues I can’t list them all, major problems were, previous guest’s trash was left for us to deal with, dog poop bags included, urine covered toilet, dirty dishes in the cupboard, all the pans were unclean and caked in food, few paper towels provided, no clean towels--all covered in dog/human hair, damp mildew towels in dryer , body fluid stain on comforter, stagnant rotting food and water in the dishwasher– it was extremely unkempt and I spent a large portion of my trip cleaning their cabin just so it was sanitary for my family. Beds and pillows, still not comfy. Cool place, poorly managed.

Family Vacation
Had a great time. One of the beds was broken, but made it work. Also towels were in the dryer when we got there, but it was more than a double load and they were still wet and had soured. None of this made our stay bad. My family had a blast and loved every minute of being there. Would stay again.

Property was very cheap so didn’t expect anything extravagant, but the property did not have basic supplies like trash bags or paper towels. There were only 5 clean bath towels, and all other towels and linens were wet in the washer and dryers. There were also dirty dishes in the oven upon arrive, as well as dirty appliances such as the skillet. Beds were clean, so that was nice!

Great cabin for family getaway
Cabin worked perfect for our family of 6 and the in-laws. Loft was great to give the kids some space after a long day of skiing. My only complaint is the master bed. It was really uncomfortable, on night 2 I ended up sleeping on the futon mattress in the livingroom which wasnt much better. My husband felt the same but no one else had issues with thier bed. We had a great time otherwise and the cabin was wonderful to use. Communication with owner was quick. Thanks for letting us use your vacay home!

Beautiful property
The property was beautiful. The cabin was nice and the ping pong table was extra fun. The only complaint I would have is the beds and pillows were uncomfortable. One of us ended up sleeping on the couch to get some sleep. I think some new pillows and some mattress toppers would make a world of difference. Also you definitely need an all wheel drive vehicle.

Great cabin nestled away
Great property in twin lakes. Cabin was quiet and met our needs. Only thing that would have been better is there was only one key to the house a second key would have been useful since we had two couples and separate cars but wasn’t that big of a deal.

Fun layout, lots of flexible space, a few things could have improved our experience
Pros: location, space, comfortable sleeps lots of people. Pingpong table is a fun touch. Cons: unable to use grill as both provided tanks were very low to empty. Some minor maintenance issues such as inoperable windows. Wasnt the cleanest, esp considering a several hundred dollar cleaning fee (for example, found a prior guest's leftover pizza in the fridge). Other notes: pack it in, pack it out policy on trash. Not a huge deal for a night or two, but something to consider especially for a longer stay.

Nothing fancy, but just perfect for our needs. Takes some time to cool down using the a/c but the mountain air did the trick even in June when opening the windows. Kept clean. Kitchen had the basics we needed to cook with. Host was friendly. Grateful for the opportunity to stay here!

Nice cabin with a great view but needs some TLC.
The cabin is nice and peaceful. However, the basic amenities are worn out and badly need of replacement. The dishes and cookware are in bad shape. Some unusable. Lights were out in one bedroom and on the deck. Shower curtain barely hanging on in one shower. Towels were threadbare. No wash cloths. Pet hair all over the couches and got on our clothing. Sheets were not guest clean. Had to change bed before use. Hair and stains. Broken blinds, broken windows. Access to get into the cabin was difficult. Had to go all the way to the back door with no pathway to get keys. On the plus…great fireplace and enough room for 7. Nice neighbors. FOUR WHEEL DRIVE IS A MUST!

Charming Cabin Escape
The cabin is nestled in the trees but was close enough to walk to the frozen lake to watch ice fishing. Cool experience. Spacious rooms, large deck. Very peaceful. It was a short drive to Leadville Colorado to watch Ski Joring. Me and my friends loved this place!

Beautiful cabin, great location! We enjoyed the loft, and the ping pong table in the basement. Some of the pots and pans were very much past their prime, and we couldn’t get the tv to work, but we were only there a few hours each evening. Would stay again.

Sweet spot
Lovely location for a couple of people or small family. Everything was easily accessible. Couple of items to be addressed. You could smell propane when standing next to gas fireplace. I did not turn it on while I stayed there and checked to see if the gas was off, and it seemed to be. Also, a couple of the pans to cook with had a lot of left over grease in them. Other than that we had a great time and visit.
