We rented all 4 cabins with our family and had
We spent time relaxing at Twin Lakes Beach. It is just a short 5 min drive from the cabins. We rented kayaks and paddle boards from Twin Lakes SUP and cycle. The town is adorable with a convenience store, coffee shop, and restaurant. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Our family had a great time and can’t wait to come back next year!

Moose cabin, has a really nice view from the kitchen and living area (which is on the smaller side), but the bedrooms are on the back of the cabin, so no lake views.
All the amenities listed were there, but sometimes you had to search the various cabins to the next to find what you were looking for. The arial picture of the cabins makes it look like the water is more walkable, but it's a longer distance than it appears. You do need to drive down to the lake.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The mountains and lake are pristine and the area is peaceful with lots to do from hiking and biking to water sports. It was the perfect spot for a family vacation!

Bedrooms feature comfortable beds and essentials, with extra pillows and blankets to keep you cozy through cool alpine evenings.
Kitchen & dining
A fully equipped kitchen invites you to prepare your own meals with a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and coffee maker. You’ll find the essentials for easy cooking and dining, along with a dining table for shared meals. Outside, a BBQ grill and outdoor furniture create a relaxed setting for open-air dining under the mountain sky.

Bathroom amenities
Each bathroom provides a bathtub or shower, hot water, and bathroom essentials such as towels, soap, and shampoo. A washer and dryer are available for convenience during longer stays.
Outdoor living
Step outside to the fire pit and breathe in the mountain air. The property’s setting offers views of Twin Lakes, where the landscape shifts with every hour—from sunrise reflections to glowing sunsets. Free parking is available on-site and on the street, and each cabin has a private entrance for ease and privacy.
Neighborhood
Nestled in the heart of Twin Lakes, this cabin sits within a historic mining town surrounded by National Forest. Just two hours from Denver, it offers quick access to outdoor recreation near Buena Vista and Leadville. Nearby trails lead to peaks like Elbert, Massive, and Huron, while Twin Lakes and Mt. Elbert Forebay invite you to canoe, kayak, paddleboard, or fish. In winter, the area transforms for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and ice fishing.
Perfect for
Guests seeking a quiet mountain retreat with access to the outdoors will feel at home here. With its pet-friendly policy, fire pit, and proximity to scenic trails, the cabin is a comfortable base for families, small groups, and anyone drawn to the beauty of Colorado’s high country.
Notes
In the patio area, you'll find a dedicated grill space, part of our shared outdoor amenities. Enjoy evenings around the communal firepit, a cozy gathering spot shared among our four cabin properties.
Kindly note that the futons in the cabins are designed for seating only and are securely fixed in place. They cannot be converted into beds.
BRINGING YOUR FURRY FRIEND?
Let us know a bit about your dog(s) and we should be able to accommodate you. $75 cleaning fee per dog, maximum two dogs max per unit. Sorry, no cats permitted.
Events are subject to approval. Please note event fees will apply.
THE WILDLIFE:
There are animals around the premises including many deer, foxes, multiple species of raptors and other birds, armadillos, many rabbits, black bears, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, mountain lions, coyotes and more! You won’t see all of these at the cabin, but if you get out on the trails, you might get lucky...
MOUNTAIN LIVING:
1. We are located just shy of 10,000 feet. Please drink plenty of water to avoid altitude sickness.
2. Sometimes the wind kicks up to remind us of all the things we cannot control, but it usually settles down again within a few hours. You would be best not to leave belongings outside.
3. Wildlife is somewhat rare but has been known to wander through. Please do not leave food outside at night.
4. Be prepared with lots of clothing layers so you can adapt to changing conditions. Mountain storms come and go quickly.
5. 4WD is recommended throughout the year and required during winter months due to potential heavy snowfall
RESPECT:
These cabins are located in a remote, tiny mountain town. Twin Lakes is pretty amazing; in fact, our family is a little apprehensive to share it with others. As visitors to the area, please think about your impact on our town and the small surrounding communities. Please respect full-time residents' privacy and solitude. Follow Leave No Trace guidelines when visiting and recreating in the beautiful outdoors, and consider supporting local dining and shopping during your stay.
FIRE:
In some months, there may be a fire ban in place. Please check and know the law before you leave. Violations of these prohibitions are punishable as a Class B misdemeanor by a fine of not more than $5,000. Please be careful and check with Lake County for more recent updates.
SMOKING:
We like to keep our cabins as fresh as the outside alpine air. If you need to smoke, you'll need to step outside to do so. There will be a $600 fine for any smoking inside the cabins.
