Cozy Mountain Retreat

Our home is located in St. Mary's Glacier, a subdivision about 10 miles northwest of Idaho Springs, and about an hour from the Denver Metro area. It sits at just under 10,000 feet so remember to drink lots of water. We have two bedrooms upstairs, one with a king size bed and the other with a queen size bed. There is a full bath upstairs as well as a small washer and dryer, a stocked linen closet, and plenty of storage for clothes. Downstairs we have an open concept living, dining, and kitchen area with a 2 person breakfast bar and all the comforts of home. Off the living room is a half bath, a selection of DVD's and books, Direct TV, Wifi, and our couch folds out to a queen size bed. A wood burning stove in the living room can heat the entire house but there are also electric baseboard heaters in every room.

We love animals and we do allow a maximum of 2 dogs for an additional fee of $75 per stay. Please make sure to indicate pets in your reservation.

We love to sit out on the deck in the morning and drink coffee while we wait for the deer to frolic by on their way to the creek that backs up to the property. During the summer, our feeders attract hummingbirds, moose are common, and at times black bears like to visit the neighborhood. 4-wheeling trails are abundant in the St. Mary's area and many can be accessed from our house. The Indian Hot Springs are just a short drive down to Idaho Springs which also has rafting, shopping, breweries, excellent BBQ, and the iconic Beau Jo's pizza. Royal Jelly Bakery DELIVERS the best baked goods to our neighborhood every Friday! Check them out here https://www.royaljellybakery.com/. We are a 30 minute drive to Central City and Black Hawk, 25 minutes to Echo Lake and Mt. Evans, and are surrounded by winter and summer sports recreation areas such as skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, ATV trails, hiking, fishing, ice skating, and more!

Perfect Mountain Retreat!
We have stayed at this ‘Cozy Mountain Retreat’ several times, but this was a special visit because of the wildlife and beautiful Colorado fall colors. We saw moose roaming in the meadow below the deck on several occasions and have wonderful pictures documenting a perfect fall week in the high country. This is a very clean, quiet and relaxing place to stay. Thank you for sharing your mountain home!

Perfect Mountain Retreat!
We enjoyed another few days at ‘Cozy Mountain Retreat’. We love this cabin, tucked away in the St. Mary’s Glacier area. The views are beautiful and it’s fun to take in the wildlife while sipping coffee on the deck. This was a much needed get away from the Denver heat. Easy check-in and check-out, quiet neighborhood and the cabin is clean and very comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Cozy Mountain Retreat
This beautiful modern cabin was a nice getaway! It was very clean and tidy! A couple deer was seen but unfortunately no other wildlife; however, we enjoyed the milder temperatures and being up in the mountains! Idaho Springs and Black Hawk were short drives away and beautiful scenery on the drive to Black Hawk. Would recommend!

The property was quiet and beautiful Moose were seen grazing only 100’ from the back deck while hummingbirds buzzed past your head. Idaho Springs was only 15-20 minutes away. The cabin was well equipped. All in all, a very calming environment.
