About Roberts Cabin

Roberts Cabin is one of the recognized historic cabins in Pike & San Isabel National Forests. The primitive cabin dates back to the mining and railroad era of the 1880s, and is eligible for placement in the National Register of Historic Places. Through the ages, the structure has been used as a residence, a blacksmith's shop and stables. In 1993, the piece of history was restored to its original form and converted for use as a cabin rental.

bring lots of wood with you, the walk to the outhouse is scary at night, it was slick on the bridge across the creek. Need lots of light with the shutters closed, so bring your heavy-duty sleeping bags hand wipes and cleaners and lights, no campfires outside, burn ban. the brooms there were worn out and no mop or mop bucket if you can't climb narrow steep steps then plan ahead, cots might be a good idea. wash tubs and cook stove also needed and full water jugs.

Beautiful location and neat history! Cabin is beautifully restored. Needs some TLC. A good clean, holes filled to protect from the mice, and new mattresses.

This was so cool. I have truly never stayed in a place like this. I also could not believe how affordable it was. I’ve spent more money on campsites. I could not recommend Robert’s Cabin more. The one thing is bring lots of lighting.

There was trash, gun shells and orange disks scratched on the property. An employee showed up unannounced and without a mask. We rented the the cabin in the middle of nowhere to avoid people, but they showed up. I felt he was there to check up on us. The cabin itself is great.
