The Ute Lodge was homesteaded in the 1930’s by Joe Fox who after leaving the military came west to settle in the White River valley.
Joe was known for his friendliness, hospitality and wild stories.
Today you might find much of the same. From Joe’s day to today it is a place where families come together to get away.
The Ute Lodge is now owned by Karl and Mona Maser who celebrated 20 years of ownership summer of 2019!
All summer our cabins are filled with guests from all over the US as well as international travelers. One of our favorite things about the summer is our weekly potlucks where we all share an outdoor meal. All of our visitors have a standing invitation to join us around the community campfire at night.
From our beautiful private lake (where you can paddle-board, kayak and fish), to immediate access to the Papoose and Crooks Park Trails on National Forest land, as well as the vast variety of wildlife that roams around, you can find what you need here to unplug and get away from it all.

Gondola Village at Holy Cross is a little sanctuary in the mountains between Aspen, Vail, and Leadville, Colorado. There is little else in the area except for the next door Holy Cross Wilderness, with a lifetime worth of trails, lakes, and peaks to explore -- all accessed from a trailhead only two plus hours from Denver. Gondola Village at Holy Cross has direct access that many only dream of to Colorado's water wilderness, and some of the best backcountry skiing, hiking, scrambling, backpacking, and fly fishing in the Vail / Eagle County / Leadville / Aspen area.
Our modern alpine cabins (Alpine Gondola Lodge and Lost Gondola Lodge) are some of the cutest cabins you've seen, complete with a mix of amenities (think Coleman stove, Miir mugs, Rumpl blankets, Goal Zero Yeti, Metolius couch, a guitar, Dometic cooler, Sea to Summit shower, and more) to make your wilderness stay a bit more comfortable. Don’t forget your camera, and a good book (or read one from our large library while you’re up here).
Gondola Village at Holy Cross is at almost 12,000 feet above sea level (believed to be one of the highest altitude Hipcamps in the world). Gondola Village at Holy Cross has been featured on Discovery Channel’s Reclaimed, Airbnb's OMG! Fund, Arch Digest, numerous other publications and brand product shoots. The managers of this property have worked in modular construction (cabins, yurts, and homes) and hospitality for many years and have brought together some of the best Scandinavian and modern mountain design with a mining town aesthetic. With such challenging access (larger items can only come in via helicopter), each piece of furniture and amenity is carefully chosen.
The trip up can be challenging (only off-road, winch / locker equipped vehicles dare try the 759 Holy Cross City jeep road, others will need to hike in at least 2.5 miles), but the views and cabins are well worth the trek. For successful navigation without reliable cell service, a map app like onX is recommended. Snow free season tends to be June 15 an October 30 annually, and outside of this guests should be prepared for up to 11 miles of over-snow travel with no cars allowed (a bit less depending on snow coverage in the shoulder seasons from May 21 - early June and late October - November 21).

After traveling the US in our motorhome for almost 5 years my husband Scott and I know the value of a smiling face and a helping hand after a day (or week) of travel. Exploring and experiencing this amazing country, its diversity and incredible people enhanced our lives in so many ways.
In mid 2017 we found out our first grandchild was on the way. Long story short we parked the RV and parked ourselves here in Paonia, CO. In December of that year, we moved onto this amazing property full time and started the long list of fix ups (the list is still long). lol
We are blessed to have our two adult sons and (aforementioned) grandson living on this property with us. Our philosophy is to live in the moment as the present is the gift. Whether enjoying a sunrise or a sunset or anytime in between you’ll likely find us outside most days.
In that, we love all that nature has to offer including fresh fruits and veggies, animals, beauty and fragrances.
Sage View Ranch is being created with the desire to have people experience the natural rustic beauty and magic of Paonia.
Scott and I look forward to meeting you :)

If Rio Blanco near the town of Meeker Coloraodo, is where you are headed out to, there's a Beautiful view from this "Dry cabin" with a cute and rustic feeling screen porch, by an interesting mountain with a rocky wall and hillside right outside the door, and overlooking the White River, and Beautiful green hills and mountains and much of the time- prettier and blue skies. We offer a peaceful, humble and quiet, furnished, yet not insulated just yet, 12X30, new structure that is categorized presently as a dry cabin with two full beds that are both working as hide-a-beds, where there are two screened windows and a fun screen room attached to the small but comfortable little covered porch.
While we have plans for more developing in the future, we ourselves are in the process of working into our own plans for the overall site. Right now, a peaceful night's sleep is much of the idea of this stay. While there is some noise from the highway that runs near the property, it gears much towards agricultural travel, such as semi trucks headed to and from from the area.
While we always will have handwashing water and a bottle of drinking water, we are in the process of developing, which REQUIRES that anyone who reserves is ALREADY equipped with sufficient drinking, any cooking water- and any necessary washing water for their overnight staying. There is a plug, small coffeemaker, and microwave which are within the structure. Some paper towels or napkins and a tissue box are provided. While much of the time, there are ample hand towels for some convenience and extra older sleeping bags, it is not our responsibility at this time to "provide linens". Trained pet may accompany a guest, and are not the responsibility in ANY WAY of the management. Parents or guardians are completely responsible for any children or guest that accompanies them. At this time, this structure is only for people who can walk up a 100 foot, small hill without any assistance that is not already accompanying them. Owners are not responsible for providing night time bright lights. While there is always a lamp it doesn't always provide enough light for some. There is no cooling system within the structure, and only overnight is cool in the summer-(Checkout is before 10 AM).

Ginger’s place was excellent and even better than the pictures showed! The views were incredible and the inside was bigger than expected. I loved the outdoor shower. The bathroom situation is unique- I’ve never used a dry toilet before. The stars at night were super bright. Definitely recommend screenshotting her instructions on how to get to the property once you lose cell service but the instructions are very accurate. I purchased one of the hand made cards to send home which was a nice touch. The location is really close to Basalt but you feel like you’re the only one on the mountain. We used it as home base to go between Aspen and Carbondale. Would love to visit again.

My family adored the Aspen Yurt. We had to change camping plans last minute due to an injury, and once we found this location, we were sold. Our vacation was not canceled, just happily adapted. Aspen Yurt was everything we wanted, and it was so beautiful. Roomy enough for a grown family of 4. The outdoor freshwater tub was a hit, along with the beautiful outdoor shower. Great memories were made.

This was a first time venturing into southern Colorado and the Colorado wine region (West Elk AVA), and, my gosh, we will definitely return to explore further. Karina’s work on the camper renovations, aptly named Grace, made our stay completely enjoyable, and she’s an awesome host. She provides perfect information to be sure guests can stay comfortably - more important if someone hasn’t been around camper living - and the location of the site is perfect for easy drives to Paonia, hiking trails or other, but it’s perfectly remote enough for end of day lounging outside with a beverage of choice and then perfect quiet for sleeping. Just an overall wonderful stay that we would gladly recommend to friends, as well as return ourselves!

We loved staying at Alpine Valley Ranch! We were there for the mountain games and this spot is a little piece of heaven. Only 30 minutes to Vail. The cabin is precious and after driving across the country. it felt great to sleep in a bed and take a hot shower.. And my daugher and some of her friends were able to camp there. Tons of trails right behind the property. Very cool spot! Thanks Gerry!

We had an amazing stay and the views are stunning. It’s extremely private and relaxing. The yurt very clean and inviting. The outdoor shower was definitely the best part. Its the perfect getaway from the city.
I definitely recommend 4WD as the road up to yurt is gravel at a moderate incline.

2 nights at Basalt Mountain Homestead
Juniper Yurt is a once in a lifetime place to stay. This is my 2nd time staying here and I hope it won't be the last. It is so remote and peaceful and beautiful. Everything you need and more comes with the yurt, inc a gorgeous outdoor shower. Even though remote, you can be down in the town in just a short drive or hours walk so you are not totally disconnected should you need. Ginger was so great at communicating with us and made us feel very welcome, we knew we could message at any time if we needed anything. I would recommend for anyone to stay here!

Weekend Trip to Basalt Mountain Homestead
Beautiful views, comfortable accommodations, and hot water🤣. Close enough to town to get what you forgot and far enough away to forget it’s there.

4 nights at Stay in Grace: Wine-Country Retreat
Grace is a sweet glamping option. The view from the breakfast table was lovely, the decor appealing and it was clean. It had everything we needed to make meals and wash dishes. The bed was comfortable. The furnace, electric stove and small heater for the bedroom made cool nights comfortable. Paonia is beautiful! The drive to Crested Butte from here is amazing!!!
Karina was very communicative with clear instructions before our trip and was quick to respond to our requests.
If you've never used a composting toilet before, it's an adjustment but it's a good option for glamping. The shower had hot water and enough pressure.
I would stay here again.

We had a lovely (but challenging, carrying a toddler) hike up and stay at Cabin #2. The cabin was quaint, clean and more well-appointed than expected (I guess we didn't need to pack a hatchet?). It was hovering around freezing when we arrived, but we got the stove lit and got the space up into the 50s for a comfortable night. Sunrise was lovely from bed and we finished our trip with a hike up to the lake in the morning before descending to the car.

Relaxing cabin in the mountains! Make sure not to over pack so you can actually enjoy the hike up to the cabin!
