A Little Red Cottage in the Woods

Chilly weather and a cozy woodstove! Fall has launched and we are open through the end of November, plus special seasonal openings during the holidays. However, there is NO RUNNING WATER until next May. If you aren't an experienced dry camper, please look at reserving a spot for the summertime. Dates fill up quickly in the springtime. 

So, if you missed glamping at our cabin in 2021, the calendar for 2022's summer season is now open -- at 2021 prices(!). So reserve your spot before prices go up on March 1.

This an an affordable rustic mountain "glamping" vacation with plenty of options for hiking, mountain biking & fishing! Comfy beds! Hot Showers (from June 1 to October 15). TV with DVD/CD player!

This cozy 672 sq. ft. 2-bedroom cottage (sleeps 6 -- 2 queens, 2 twins) in beautiful Jefferson, Colorado, is halfway between Bailey and Fairplay and just minutes away from fishing at Tarryall Reservoir.

A 90-minute drive from west Denver, this cute cabin is nestled on 4 private acres and is located approximately one mile from Hwy 77 and Stagestop Road in a secluded and quiet neighborhood surrounded by meadows, pine, and aspen trees. In addition, the cabin is less than 5 minutes away from national forest -- so bring your ATVs.

This private cottage, which is furnished, highlights the following:

** Sweeping views of southern and western mountain ranges including Mt. Baldy and Mt. Princeton (see photos)

** Full size refrigerator, stove/oven, auto coffee maker, toaster oven, and blender (but no microwave!)

** Blackout shades in both bedrooms

** 4 Beds -- please bring your own pillows and linens

   --> Queen bed in master bedroom, including comforter

   --> Queen bed (under twin bunk) and twin antique bed in guest bedroom. Note that the person/child sleeping on upper bunk should weigh no more than 110 pounds.

** Wrap-around deck with great sunset views

** 4 chairs and round iron table on deck to enjoy outdoor evenings, sunsets and sunrises! Two camp chairs can be found inside in case you have more than 4 campers.

** 2 Lounge chairs for sunbathing and relaxing

 ** Vintage wood stove for cozy heat (bring wood or feel free to gather dead, dry wood and sticks from property)

** Private entrance and driveway

Pricing is currently set to BRING YOUR OWN LINENS -- sheets, sleeping bags, pillows, bath and kitchen towels, but if you want us to supply linens, contact me first, as we have to follow Park County's Covid guidelines.

NOTE -- this cabin, while updated and very comfy, is "rustic" in terms that it does not have WIFI and you'll want to bring your own water to drink. Also, reliable cell phone reception is not guaranteed. Verizon seems to work fine... from the deck!

Please note that this cabin is located in the foothills and you will see wildlife activity -- mostly chipmunks. However, we have a neighborhood bear (lock your car!), lots of chipmunks, squirrels, bobcats, field mice, and sometimes a stray dog or cat. Some "glampers" are admittedly afraid of chipmunks and mice, so if you're queasy at the site of one of these little furry guys, our cabin might not be your best option. As for bears, just lock your car and keep food and trash INSIDE the cabin until you leave. 

Some house rules to note before you rent: No campfires or smoking (fire danger!), no drugs, no cats. Two dogs are allowed -- but please make sure they are safe -- again, we have bears, mountain lions, and bobcats!

If star-gazing isn't your thing, bring your own DVDs to watch on the HDTV and lounge on the comfy loveseat and chairs.
