Great Cabin! Very clean, exactly what I was hoping for. The kitchen is decently stocked, but if you plan on cooking you MUST bring dish-soap, washcloths, and towels (as no linens are provided). I would also suggest you bring knives (there's are low quality), a cutting board (they have 1 cheap one), a colander (for noodles) and trash bags. Good enough pots/pans, and good plates, silverware, cups, a Keurig, etc. There is a front gate w/ padlock that is the same code to get into the cabin. Bishop Castle is a 10 min drive and a MUST SEE if you are here. At the very least drive by it. Super cool (don't forget to donate if you go in, as it is free). Great Sand Dunes Natl Park is 2 hours away, and super cool if you're willing to drive, and the Sangre de Cristos mountain range is 1 hour away and good for long hikes if you want. Overall great cabin!

This is a nicecabin in a great location. We love to come here and have the comforts of home and the lake within walking distance. We biked around the lake as well which was relaxing and a good workout! The cabin has everything you need and with the fire ban we just made smores on the fire in the fireplace. The beds are all in one room, which makes it a challenge to sleep if have a snorer and there was some sort of ticking sound coming from the out building behind the cabin so bring ear plugs to help with the noise. If this cabin was off the beaten path a bit more it would have made it perfect.

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.
