Welcome to Clear Creek Getaway! NOTE: Absolutely no smoking in the A-frames Bedding: we do not provide beds or bedding Please understand that these types of amenities cost way more providing blankets and sheets pillow’s that I need to launder every day So be prepared to bring your own sleeping pads or air mattress I can provide all for a additional cost of 40.00 for the cleaning crew For the glam dome: file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/cd/13/3781DC46-F036-428E-BFC5-447B16E14D54/Image-1.jpeg Roads : This is a mountain getaway so the roads are dirt. If you have Awd and keep your speed up you will make it fine. The road is a loop the backside can have rocks so please drive up in high clearance vehicles no need for crazy lifted just SUV-Trucks type We are available all year round. No power in units. All A-Frames come with a grill and propane (see photos), and there is also a solar motion light on the deck. All A-frames have heat for the winter months (propane heaters). Located 10 minutes by car from historic gold town Idaho Springs. River rafting when in season. We also have some of Colorado’s best fly fishing. Awesome hikes nearby (Gray's Peak).

Cozy stay!

Stayed here for one night & wished we could have stayed longer! Rick’s site was perfect for us after snowboarding. Stayed here during the high wind storm. It was nasty outside but the heater kept us nice & warm! Heater was easier to start than expected (set to pilot, light, set to desired heat, and voila). Will def be back when the weather is warmer so we can enjoy the outside amenities!

Cute, quaint, and quiet!

100% will be coming back! It’s right off of I70 so it makes for a convenient drive to and from. Cell service is a plus! The heater SAVED us during our winter camping excursion.

A cool spot in the mountains west of Denver. Definitely a small A-Frame but we knew that going in. There was heat in the cabin, but we could not figure out how to turn it on. Beautiful views and close to the freeway
