Nestled into the breathtaking San Juan Mountains, this cabin with a hot tub is the perfect alpine retreat for those hoping to relax and recharge in a serene setting.

Conveniently located for outdoor recreation, you’ll discover Revolution Rail (five miles), Rio Grande National Forest (seven miles), and Wolf Creek Ski Lodge (twenty-two miles) all just a short drive away. Depending on the season, enjoy a day skiing the slopes, backpacking through rugged wilderness, or pedaling scenic railways.

Featuring spacious and cozy living areas, this tranquil hideout is bursting with sunny interiors and rustic charm. Gather everyone on the plush sofa for family movie night or grill up a hearty meal on the outdoor patio as the sun goes down. The well-appointed kitchen makes quick meal preparation a breeze. After a day on the mountain, utilize the private washer/dryer for tomorrow’s gear and break out the board games. Even better, stoke the wood-burning fireplace and reminisce with friends about the day’s adventures. Complete with woodsy finishes and artful accents, this alpine escape is sure to inspire unforgettable memories.

Quiet area but house smelled
The area was quiet and relaxing but unfortunately the house smelled like animal urine. The carpet had several stains from urine. Thankfully the weather was good so we could keep the windows open, it helped but still smelled. The spa was nice but right near the spa was the septic tank. The covers were visible and had damage so you could smell the septic when trying to enjoy the spa

Quiet Cabin with Nice New Hot Tub
This is an established older cabin located away from Main Street in South Fork. The property has a nice new hot tub. Bedrooms are very spacious. One bedroom has an extremely tall bed that really needs to have a bench or stepstool to be able to get in the bed. The other bedroom has a large king size bed, large closet, and plenty of space. The living room/dining room have everything you need. Our only complaints - the kitchen was not very clean, the refrigerator had a smell and the kitchen floor was sticky and dirty. The unit could’ve used some dusting. We liked the location and did find it very restful. If you plan to do a lot of cooking, bring basics like salt and pepper, garlic salt, and those sorts of things. There is nothing fancy about this property, but it is a good getaway. Our thought was that this is a fairly new rental and definitely a work in progress.
