This 3-bedroom log cabin sits on 6 private acres of lodgepole pine outside Leadville, with the Arkansas River and a 154-acre open space along the property line and Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive on the horizon. The great room centers on a river rock fireplace under vaulted log ceilings, with walls of windows facing the trees. The full kitchen has a gas range, breakfast bar, and full cookware for group meals. Two king bedrooms sit on the lower level off the main living space, and an upstairs loft adds a king and two twins, sleeping 6 in real beds. In-unit laundry, a deck, a BBQ grill, and parking for several vehicles round out the home. Note: no air conditioning (rarely needed at this elevation), and central heat covers the cold months.
We do utilize a weblink outside the platform that directs guests to our guidebook. You will receive an email with this link. This is the ONLY way guests can access check-in information, and facilitates the collection of fees and other special requests/upgraded services we offer.
To protect your stay, you'll choose one of two options during online check-in: a $250 refundable security deposit (a temporary card hold, released after checkout) or a small damage waiver ($10/night, max $80).
You'll have the entire cabin and the 6 acres to yourselves. Check-in is self-service — you'll get a guidebook link by email before arrival with door codes, directions, and local tips. Park several vehicles in the on-site lot. Exterior security cameras (not actively monitored) cover the entrance for safety; there are none inside.
We're reachable by phone and email 24/7, with a local team on the ground in Leadville if anything comes up. We'll send your guidebook and check-in details ahead of arrival, then give you the run of the place.
The cabin sits 2 miles from downtown Leadville, Colorado — at 10,152 ft, the highest incorporated city in North America — known for Harrison Avenue's cafes, restaurants, and preserved mining-era architecture. The property borders the Arkansas River and a 154-acre open space, with Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive, the two highest peaks in the Rockies, on the skyline. Turquoise Lake (10 minutes) offers fishing, paddling, and a scenic shoreline drive, while Ski Cooper (15 minutes) is a low-key ski hill popular with families. Summer activities include hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, 4-wheeling, and the Leadville Trail 100 race series; winter adds skiing, tubing, snowmobiling, and ice skating. Twin Lakes and the Independence Pass approach are a short drive south.

No A/C — Leadville's elevation keeps nights cool, and central heat covers winter. Not pet friendly. Stays over 15 nights include a required mid-stay cleaning.
Altitude is real: Leadville sits near 10,000 ft, and the first day or two can bring dizziness or nausea — hydrate and ease in. Consider travel insurance if you're sensitive to elevation.
This is the high country, so you may see wildlife or the occasional insect — keep doors closed when you can. Snowmobiles must stay trailered on the property; the closest trailhead is Leadville Junction toward Turquoise Lake. Exterior security cameras (not monitored) cover the entrance.
