About Lake Isabel Cabin

Lake Isabel Cabin is ideal for guests who wish to experience camping in the Pike and San Isabel National Forest, yet sleep in a bed with a roof overhead. The modern cabin is full-service and can accommodate up to six guests, with convenient access to Lake Isabel, just three minutes away. Lake Isabel is one of the few lakes in Colorado developed purely for recreation. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, the lake attracts many campers who come to hike, canoe, fish and spend time bird watching. St. Charles Creek flows near the cabin and offers an extra option for fishing.

Nice home-y cabin , comfortable weekend get away,
Take blankets/towels(not provided)
No issues - we rented a mountain cabin and we got a mountain cabin - fireplace was awesome for s'mores with the grand kids, snow slide hill was great and within walking distance.
would recommend to anyone wanting to experience Colorado's mountains.

This cabin was incredible especially for the price. We stayed here for 5 days and 4 nights and it was a jammed packed 5 days of hiking, snow shoeing, seeing Jim Bishop's castle, and sledding. We were out and about all five days but the only people that we ran into were Kevin, the national forest ranger, and his wife. The cabin was very warm, has hot water, a fireplace, fully stocked kitchen worth of dishes, silverware, and cookware, washer and dryer, microwave, oven, and a large garage area perfect for keeping snow covered items to thaw and dry out. We rented snow shoes at the REI in Colorado Springs and used them every day. Ranger Kevin (that works out of the office near the cabin) and Ranger Lori, from the National Forest Service office in Pueblo, gave GREAT suggestions of how to spend out time including the best places to snow shoe and where the best hot springs were and were so fun to talk to in general.

Our family has always loved to be outdoors. When my wife and I discovered this cabin we were excited. It's right across the road from San Isabel Lake, with lots of great hiking trails and you can't complain about the price. 2 things I would suggest: remember to bring your own blankets/sleeping bags. It's ideal for a small family because you can all bunk in one room...but not for say 2 couples. Have fun, we did!
