About this property

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A Road Less Traveled High in the Colorado Rockies

Meek's Hill Cabin in Marble, Colorado is located at an altitude of 8000 feet in the midst of cool, towering pines, with views of 13,000 ft. peaks. Deer frequently wander through the property and bears have even been known to knock on the door. Feisty hummingbirds compete for their share of nectar from the feeder. Nature is literally on your doorstep! Since there is no light pollution in this small community, the starry skies will amaze you! In addition to this, you have all the comforts of a luxury condo. Our cabin is easily accessible but away from trains, planes and highways. Four-wheel drive is not necessary.

Marble, a very small community, is a great central location for exploring the beautiful places of western Colorado. Within a two hour drive you can visit the orchards and vineyards of Paonia, the stunning Black Canyon of the Gunnison River, Colorado National Monument in Grand Junction, the Roaring Fork River valley and Aspen, Independence Pass and the Snowmass Wilderness. Best of all, our own Crystal River Valley.

If you are looking for the perfect place to experience nature at its best, Meek's Hill Cabin IS the perfect place! Sorry, we cannot accommodate dirt bikes or ATV's. We are closed for the hunting season.

Beauty and tranquility
This beautiful home in the mountains was way more than we expected!! Marble is such a beautiful little town! Our hosts were so helpful in things to do around the area and attentive to every little detail in the house. The deck overlooking the mountain was our favorite spot to be. If you like to hike there are so many beautiful trails around Marble and surrounding towns. We definitely will be back again.

My wife and I are veteran VRBO users, and this is one of the very best we have stayed in. It is a clean, attractive little house in a very peaceful and beautiful setting. The owners manage the unit in a most professional way. We will definitely return.

5 Star Experience
We travel extensively and were totally pleased with our visit here. The view is exceptional, the cabin is spotless and surrounded by lovely flowers and hummingbirds, and the interior makes you feel like you are at home with beautiful decor and comfy furniture. The cabin is fully equipped with luxury linens and everything you need to prepare meals. The hosts are attentive, friendly and knowledgeable about Marble and the surrounding area. Our week flew by and we enjoyed every moment.

Charming, quiet, and beautiful!
I had the pleasure of spending a weekend in this lovely cabin - girls' weekend with very precious friends. The cabin has been recently renovated and the appointments are lovely; once the deck is complete it will be a WOW! We spent much of the weekend enjoying the view from the deck, from watching the sun rise over the mountain view to the amazing stars. If you are looking for a very quiet, private retreat - look no further!

Meek’s Hill Cabin
Enjoyed every minute of our stay! Tom and Kay are amazing and have really provided a perfect little place for anyone looking to spend some quality quiet time away from the noise most of us experience far too much. I really can’t say enough other than keep this area what it is. It is a clean and quiet community. It is not a place to be obnoxious or be noisy. There are many other places that cater to that!

Experience the magic of Marble!
We enjoyed our stay at the Meek's Hill Cabin and hope to return! It was perfectly located for short hikes and close to 4wheel roads for exploring. The wild flowers on the way to Lake Geneva were breath taking, even in September! Returning to the cabin was like coming home, as it has all the comforts and everything you could imagine (even a small cooler and ice pack for hikes)! Our dog enjoyed having a small fenced in area attached to the back of the cabin. The hummingbirds were fun to watch and Tom and Kay were fabulous :) We would highly recommend a stay in Marble at Meek's Hill.

Clean, comfortable cabin in a beautiful spot!
This cabin had everything we needed for a lovely “home base” for our July wildflower viewing vacation. The hosts are very friendly and came to greet us shortly after we arrived. The cabin was clean. We ate most of our meals “in”, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bathroom is very nice with a good shower and a jetted bathtub. Our bed was comfortable. The front deck is a great place for coffee, meals, or just relaxing. The property is very well kept with flowers, a green grass lawn, some wooden benches, and of course the beautiful tall evergreen trees. We hope to go back someday!

Wonderful get-away!
Tom and Kay, our hosts, have created a lovely spot to unplug and soak in the beautiful view and the silence of the valley. Sitting on the deck in the evening was a delight. They have thoughtfully furnished their cabin with everything we needed. The bed was comfortable with quality linens and lots of pillows. The kitchen was well stocked. We particularly appreciated their friendliness and their suggestions of places to go and things to do! Helped to make our mini-vacation just what we needed.

Perfect!
My husband and I stayed here while our daughter attended Treasure Mountain Bible Camp. It was quiet, peaceful, and the perfect place to get a respite from a very busy summer. The house is clean and very comfortable. We came prepared with a load of groceries and had all the cooking utensils we needed. Would definitely recommend! Thank you so much Tom and Kay for sharing this wonderful spot!

Amazing! We Will Be Back!
My husband and I wanted to get out of the city and away from the heat. This cabin, the owners and the entire community and experience was above and beyond our expectations. This property is only something to behold in person. That to say that the pictures do not do it justice. We are already talking about our return trip next summer.

The perfect getaway.
Meeks Hill Cabin By far one of the best adventures I’ve had since I was a little girl wondering off the grid in Mexico. Dirt roads, no cell phones, and just endless adventures. The fall trees were absolutely beautiful, and the sea of mountains seemed as if you were looking at a painting. I came for solitude, and this place delivered. It felt like home and I can not wait to be back.

Great Experience
This rental home was terrific. It offers a beautiful mountain view and a fenced backyard that is an exploratory delight for dogs. The furnishings and bed were comfortable and we had all we needed and more regarding kitchenware. It is uncommon for us to revisit vacation destinations but we are interested in returning here for a longer stay. The hosts were ideal -- attentive, responsive and knowledgable about the area's offerings.
