I went on a solo trip and stayed here and it was incredible! 10 minutes from the Monarch, 15 minutes from Poncha. It’s nestled next to a spring that’s soothing. I’ll stay here again and again!

Had a wonderful time at this cozy, peaceful cabin nestled amongst beautiful aspen and pine beside a running creek. Only minutes away from great skiing at Monarch Mountain. Enjoyed the lovely décor with everything we needed for a great getaway with friends.
