About this cabin rental
Relax with your family or friends at this peaceful retreat on top of the Silverleaf community at a whopping 4200’ elevation. Enjoy towering mountain views of Rich Mt. as you rest on our deck swing & rockers. Once well rested, take a hike on one of the many nearby trails or simply unwind in our hammocks nestled along the wooded yard. Finish your day soaking in the hot tub, roasting marshmallows in the fire pit, curling up by the gas stove or visiting our basement game room.

We had an awesome time at the SkyBarn. The house is beautiful, clean, well stocked, and has beautiful mountain views. We spent much of our time in the basement playing air hockey, arcade games, etc. that it has to offer.Kim and Jim were very helpful and responded very quickly if I had any questions. We will definitely be booking again!
