Cozy Bunkhouse with Great Trails

My partner Travis, our dog Fin, and I had an incredible stay at the Bunkhouse in Idaho Springs. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and comfortable. The Bunkhouse was clean and cozy, providing the perfect retreat after our day spent exploring the nearby trails. The location is ideal for anyone who loves hiking, with numerous trails within walking distance. The host was exceptionally accommodating, providing detailed information that made our stay seamless. We appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as the easy-to-find clean bedding, local maps, and heated outhouse. This Airbnb truly exceeded our expectations, and we would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and adventurous getaway!

Would recommend this place!

Had a great trip up at this bunkhouse. Size was pretty good for the location and price. Great access to hiking and Saint Mary’s Glacier. Outhouse was heated and had fridge, microwave, and other good amenities.
