Property details

Mountain Log Home is a 3-bedroom log cabin on 6 private acres of lodgepole pine outside Leadville, Colorado, with views of Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive and the Arkansas River bordering the property. It sleeps 6 across two king bedrooms and an upstairs loft, with a river rock fireplace, a full kitchen, and in-unit laundry. The cabin sits 15 minutes from Ski Cooper, 10 minutes from Turquoise Lake, and 2 miles from downtown Leadville — a base for skiing, hiking the 14ers, fishing, and the Leadville 100. Pets: Not allowed. Smoking: Not allowed. Events: Not allowed. Suitable for: children and infants 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. License #2026-042. 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.

Nice cabin on a big lot, close enough to Leadville to get there quickly and easily, but also isolated enough to enjoy the mountains and nature. Was a great home base as we tackled the Leadville Trail 100. Chris was a great and attentive host - thanks for a great family memory!

We stayed in this guest cabin when my son raced in the Leadville 100. It was the perfect place and we felt right at home. It’s kitchen was fully stocked which came in handy having a big dinner the night before the race. The beds were very comfortable and Sabrina was so kind and responsive. We would stay here again!
