Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
I had a nice stay with my dog at the end of September. The view is as nice as everyone says. The site is big with an outdoor fire pit, but i didn't use. You are at 11k feet and will feel it hiking and chopping wood for kindling. That was fun with a heavy axe. The portable toilet is interesting. still not sure how I feel about it. Temps were down to 35 night but was fine inside with the wood stove. The road up is pretty rough, but I made it fine in a Tesla 3. Just go slow.

Seclusive cabin experience
Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
Loved the set up of this well built cabin. Wood stove was a nice feature and kept it nice and toasty inside even with freezing temps. Seclusive and convenient to hiking Mount Bross and even Mounts Lincoln, Cameron and Democrat. Saw a moose and several deer in the open area in front of the cabin which was a highlight.

Overall , our experience was good at William’s Zella hut. Kitchen is well stocked, and cooking on the outdoor grill was easy . A couple concerns: I specifically asked if the water hot springs would be working and hot when we arrived. We were told yes. This was not true- the hot springs were freezing cold, and we enjoyed a cold plunge instead. We were also told we get 3 bars of service for ATand T- we only got one at most. Make sure to bring matches and some newspaper if you want to make a fire- there was one small Bic lighter that worked most of the time. Finally, William does not seem to respond through the Hipcamp site promptly, and we ended up calling him or texting his phone if we had questions. This may not bother people, but I prefer to do communication through the site. The area is incredibly quiet, private, gorgeous, close to a 14 ers. We enjoyed our stay- just wished the communication was more precise about the hot springs and the service.

Loved staying at the a-frame. Clear directions to locate it and to stay and didn’t encounter anyone else during our two day stay. Saw lots of different animals and enjoyed star gazing from the bed.

Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
Absolutely stunning location. The cabin is great and fitting of the host’s description. Bed was quite comfortable. Grill is solid and will enable you to cook most anything—works perfectly as an oven. The cabin is small but well designed. There are some tight corners with low ceiling clearance (like the sink area) making it a bit tough for tall people. Couple more things to note that may be helpful. there are functional USB ports but the typical outlets did not work for us. Don’t expect to plug anything in. Solar panels provide the electricity— it’s probably by design that the outlets are deactivated reserving power for other things. Solar panels also provide the heat for the “hot springs.” The system was working—warm water was entering the pool, but not at a sufficient rate to heat the cold (and beautifully clear) spring water. There is evidence that they are still working on it. I’m hopeful that one day they’ll be able to deliver on the “hot” part. We still took exhilarating dips a couple of times. Take the altitude seriously, If you’re coming from sea level, you may feel sick for your entire stay. We live at 5600 feet and still spent a full day adjusting. It’s a special place—We had a wonderful time. William was very helpful.

Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
Our family of 4 and 2 pups had an excellent experience at Zella Hut! So beautiful with so many different terrains and PRIVACY!! The shelter is everything you could ask for and more. Two king beds with decent mattresses and room for dog beds, couch, table and stove. Tons of blankets, firewood and the little kitchen has everything! Favorite part was the “hot spring” dipping pool next to the creek with a little waterfall! Close second was the view from the expansive cement decking! We had some fun adventures further up the road and next time we will definitely do one of the three 14ers we were so close to. But honestly, that deck was just stunning…our happy place for sure! Thanks for hosting us William- we appreciate your quick and clear communication 🤙🏽

We really enjoyed the cabin. Location was very private. We enjoyed hiking in the area, including to the bristlecones at windy ridge, which you could hike to from the cabin. William was great at communicating and answering questions. The shower is outside. The portable toilet was inside - we did bring a sheet so there was more privacy given the glass door to the toilet area. We opted to clean ourselves rather than pay the cleaning fee. We really enjoyed our weekend here.

Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
My fiance and I spent Valentine's weekend at the cabin during winter. We enjoyed our trip! Such a well-built cabin with very thought out amenities. We would love to come back again. The Host is great at communicating and will answer any of your questions. The 3 mile snowshoe trek in was fun! Wish we brought skiis to ski nearby. FYI You will be stepping outside to pee. The host did require us to sign a rental agreement/ liability waiver and send a copy of a credit card.

We really loved it. The place is so serene and quiet and far out from civilization. The surrounding area is extremely beautiful too, with so many walks. We even saw bears and elks on the hill opposite us. On the whole it was one of the best experiences of our life. The cabin itself is just one single space but extremely well designed and built. Everything has been carefully planned for

We had a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary at this cabin! It’s the perfect spot for a quick getaway. There is a generous amount of amenities provided which made us feel very comfortable. While we could’ve used the fire pit outside, we ended up not using it because the indoor wood burning stove was sufficient and convenient. It was cozy and kept us warm (would recommend cracking the front door open of the cabin while starting up the fire so it doesn’t get too smoky inside). We made good use of the grill and enjoyed all of our meals on the deck while enjoying the beautiful views. Would also recommend hiking to Windy Ridge if you’re not up for a 14er and just looking for a moderate hike. We would love to stay here again!

Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
Perfectly roomy and cosy for three people! Our flight was severely delayed and so we ended up arriving late at night, which made it tricky to find the cabin. However once we were there everything was wonderful. Comfortable bedding, gorgeous views, an indoor fireplace (it got chilly!) and a spacious outdoor deck that we took advantage of for stargazing. Kevin was really communicative and provided great directions. Highly recommend this cabin!

Meadow Hot Springs Glamping Cabin
The property itself was beautiful, nestled in a serene setting that truly allows you to connect with nature. However, I found the description of the cabin a bit misleading. The listing didn’t specify that it was a single-room space, and the photos made it seem like there was more room—possibly a loft or at least a more spacious layout. One of the biggest surprises was the refrigerator situation. The description mentioned that a fridge/freezer would be available during the summer months, with only an outdoor cooler in winter. Unfortunately, we had a cooler during our stay, even though it wasn’t winter. Another issue was the bathroom situation. The flushing toilet was out of service, and we were given a portable toilet instead. However, this toilet was awkwardly placed in a glass shower stall without any privacy curtain, meaning everyone in the cabin had a clear view. The outdoor solar shower also lacked a privacy curtain, which was disappointing. The indoor stove for heat was also problematic. Despite following the instructions and setting the lever to the left, the stove filled the room with smoke, making it uncomfortable to use. Overall, while the cabin’s location and setting are lovely, I think the owner should be more upfront and specific about the amenities. This cabin might be great for couples, but I wouldn’t recommend it for friends or anyone seeking a bit more privacy when it comes to bathroom and shower facilities.

My family had a wonderful stay in this cozy cabin for my young daughter’s first camping experience. The setting was perfect—peaceful and surrounded by nature. The cabin was clean, well-equipped, and provided all the comforts we needed for a relaxing night. It was the ideal introduction to camping for her, and we look forward to returning!
