I purchased this land a few years ago with the dream of building a cabin in the woods with my kids for all of us to enjoy nature together. With the help of my kids and friends, we built this tiny cabin (119sq ft) with a lot of love, laughter, tears and even some blood shed. It embodies a journey for my family in coming together to enjoy nature and overcome many unknowns. It is a representation of our growth, our love and our creativity and I am eager to share it with other nature lovers! It is a work in progress, still, and we hope to add more fun features as time goes on. Thank you! Please enjoy it as we do!Enjoy all the beauty of being out in nature on almost 6 acres of land, a seasonal creek and the comfort of warm beds at night and a roof over your head! This is a dry cabin with 2 queen beds and a full size futon for additional guests. Inside enjoy a custom built counter for food prep, a small deck just off the cabin and a nearby firepit for enjoying nature. Surrounding features include nearby climbing, national forest access, ATV trails, hunting, fishing and mountain biking. Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park are just 25 minutes away. Also on property is an old camper and pop-up camper (not usable) and a 90 foot long greenhouse used as a wood storage area from trees milled off the property to build the cabin. The greenhouse did not survive the giant snowstorm over the winter and is collapsed currently, we ask you kindly stay out of these. 4 wherl drive is highly recommended for access, the road in is steep and windy and the driveway can be difficult when wet in the spring. There are nearby ATV trails to enjoy! The cabin is maxed out at 6 guests, but if you have additional groups coming, there are plenty of tent camping areas as well for a minimal fee. This is a beautiful area with many outdoor amenities. Feel free to contact me for more information.

Tiny Cabin

Great base for Rockies access!

Excellent place for staying near the Rockies! The house was clean, exactly as described, and well suited for us 2 adults and 5 kids. We didn’t spend much time inside except to sleep so the small space was fine. There was an issue with the previous occupants not taking care of the toilet which rendered it unusable, but we had brought a portable toilet so we didn’t use it. Entry road, Storm Mountain Drive, is an exciting uphill drive with switchbacks, and some gravel sections with no guardrails - goes up about 1200’ in 3-4 miles, which takes about 20 minutes to/from the highway. For swimming nearby, check out Carter Lake for a nice quiet beach on a reservoir. Great stargazing and plenty of space to explore. We would love to come back!

Cozy Cabin Getaway

We loved this tiny cabin! Spacious enough with the essentials and gorgeous scenery. We especially loved the morning sunlight filtering through the grove of pine trees surrounding the area. We used the fire pit up near the cabin and were grateful for the seating logs. Was a bit worried about temp as we have a little one but there was no need - I’m sure it fluctuates but in mid June it stayed nice and toasty all night. Tip - there is a beautiful log ladder to get up to the loft - socks can make it kind of slick so it was helpful to be barefoot. Also if we had a generator we definitely would have used the outlets! Thank you for a great wilderness getaway!

Cabin was clean and easy to get to! It was private and we felt super cozy on the property. The area was beautiful and we would love to stay there again! Jennifer has a lot of supplies up there in case you forget anything!

Tiny Cabin

The cabin is very beautiful and simple. Perfect for being in the woods but with a little more comfort than camping. Jennifer gave detailed information re. the supplies you need to bring. It’s at the end of a long uphill dirt and gravel road so 4 wheel drive helps.
