This is Colorado! Stunning views, killer hot tub, 12 acres, game barn+huge deck!

If you are looking for nature and privacy in style, you have found the place. This three-story ranch includes five over-sized bedrooms, three bathrooms, a huge wrap around deck and multiple hang out areas on 12 private acres. The master bedroom, bathroom and second king bedroom are located on the upper level. The main level includes two bedrooms with king beds, a full bathroom, fireplace room, TV room, dining room and kitchen. A bunkbed/lounge room and bathroom suite with 5x5' rainforest shower is located on the lower level perfect for showering after a hot tub, hike or snowshoeing. There are no neighbors in sight. You have the mountain all to yourself!
House includes:
4 king sized beds
Bunk bed (full sized bottom bunk+ twin top bunk)
Game Barn - totally private structure with 2 dart boards, poker table, mini-basketball, ping pong table
Hot Tub (7 person)
Dish TV and ViaSat WiFi.
Gorgeous wood interior
Beautiful mountain and forest views
Lots of windows and natural light
Bright starry sky
Fresh air

More than 3000 finished SF
1100 SF wrap around deck

Enjoy a glass of wine and a good book in the fireplace room. Grill a juicy steak on the outdoor grill or on the indoor Jenn-air. Enjoy fresh morning pancakes and coffee while taking in the fresh air. Play board games with family. Get some fresh air while playing horseshoes, corn hole, or bocce ball on the property. Jump on the trampoline or test your skills on the slack line. Kids can enjoy a 150' zip line. Hot tub seats 7 and is perfect for star gazing with the family or a quiet romantic evening.

The ranch is perfect for a big family (or two family getaway); a Big Chill reunion of friends; a business team brainstorming getaway or a relaxing retreat after a Red Rocks concert. Nature is 360 and there are tons of nooks and crannies so everyone can have their private space if they want. We have poured our heart and soul into the Ranch and we are sure you will have a unique and memorable stay.

We are located about 20 minutes south of Conifer and 20 minutes north of Bailey. The nearest grocery store is located in Conifer or there is a Country Store (convenience items) liquor store, a gym and a restaurant about 10 minutes away.

Easy access to Guenella Pass, Bailey, Colorado Trail, Buffalo Creek and Staunton State Park, Wellington Lake

Note: AWD or 4x4 highly recommended in the winter. The access road has a grade for about 100 yards. It is plowed, but can be packed snow in a few shaded locations.

Pre-approved Pet is welcome for an additional cleaning fee/deposit. Approval of pet depends on breed, size, temperament, etc. Please disclose and discuss with Sarah/Paul any pet that will be on the property during your stay. Please pick up any droppings within 75 feet of the ranch house.

IMPORTANT: Any Unauthorized and Unapproved pets on the property may result in immediate termination of your stay and will incur a $500 additional deep cleaning fee. Again, please disclose and discuss with Sarah/Paul any pet(s) that will be on the property during your stay.

Security cameras are located on property facing the entryways and driveway (includes the area around the hot tub). We leave these on when the property is unoccupied and turn them off once a new guest has arrived.

Perfect Getaway
Such an amazing property, with SO MUCH to do! We were set on doing two active days (Mt. Blue Sky, Meow Wolf, Etc.) and two chill days at the cabin. We had to encourage folks to leave the cabin! The hot tub, game barn, finding new bugs and rocks, relaxing on the deck with that amazing view. We have stayed at quite a few rental properties over the years, and I would say this is the best one yet. Sarah has it figured out for sure, from amenities to communication. We cannot recommend enough and will definately be back!

So much fun
They thought of everything! It's a bit of a drive to get up to it, but once you get there, it's well worth the journey. The property is gorgeous, there are tons of things to do right there, and the home is ideal. One of the best VRBO properties we've stayed at. Also, Sarah was great to work with. Very responsive. Oh, and the binder with directions/house rules was by far the best I've seen.

cabin in the woods
The only word that comes to mind is amazing. This place offered my grandchildren so many wonderful things to do. They had a blast. So much wildlife and the road to their place made coming and going spectacular. The beds were very comfortable and the home very accommodating and cozy. Not one complaint. Sarah is the perfect host and was super nice to talk to and communicate with. It was the perfect 7days and nights and SO happy I found her place.

The place was in a gorgeous mountain, very calm and away from the hustle and bustle. The house is very well equipped with games, activities, food and even a cool game room. It’s great for families with multiple age ranges. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful.

A Thanksgiving to remember
We live in Denver, but my Mother had always dreamed of celebrating Thanksgiving in the mountains. We decided 2023 was the year. I found the cabin in Pine and it was perfect for our young adults, elderly and those in between! The kitchen was large and well equipped. We watched football and ate yummy food. The hot tub was a hit and the scenery was unmatched. It snowed for a couple of days and we also drove over Kenosha Pass to cut Christmas trees on Saturday.. The fireplace was lovely too! I hope we can return to Craig Ranch one day!

Feels like Home away from Home
We always enjoy our stay at Craig Ranch. It is easy to settle in quickly and start enjoying your surroundings. There is plenty of room for our two families of 4. So much for the kids to do, from art supplies and board games to a ninja line, trampoline, outdoor toys and a tree house. We never heard the word “bored!” The house is very well equipped with any cooking utensil you could possibly need, condiments, spices, etc. Plenty of blankets and towels. Nothing beats a cup of coffee on the deck, taking in the beautiful views and serenity. I have no doubt we will be back. We’re never disappointed!

Quiet stay, wonderful host!
I want to start by saying that the communication with Sarah was absolutely fantastic! She provided so much information about the house/property, as well as things to do and see in the area. Check-in and out was effortless and I just really appreciate how much care she put into everything. The kitchen was stocked with staples to share and everything we could possibly need to make some epic breakfasts and quiet dinners. We played cornhole, darts, board games, frisbee, and explored the beautiful property. I would recommend Zoka's Restaurant, Staunton State Park, and Snowpack Taproom. And every night in the hot tub under the stars!

AMAZING stay, gracious hosts!
The property itself was amazing. It had absolutely everything we needed, from extra blankets, to coffee machines, to central heating, to sleds we could use for when it snowed. Sarah was the best host we could ask for, especially since she was so communicative and would ask how we were doing during our stay. If I could give a rating of 10/10, I certainly would, and I'm happy to come back and stay here again!

Mountain Paradise Hideaway!
We had the absolute pleasure of staying here this past July for our niece's wedding. This place exceeded every expectation. I've never stayed in such a stocked rental. It has everything you need and more. We spent hours on the deck with views in every direction and used the hot tub nightly. The beds were super comfortable as was the living spaces. Communication was swift, easy, and friendly. It absolutely is off the beaten path up a gravel road and you do have to drive slow to avoid potholes, etc. which didn't bother us but is good to know going in! But directions were great and we loved the seclusion. We would all stay here again in a heartbeat!!
