At night, you can opt to light up the charcoal grill or take advantage of Westcliffe’s outstanding star-lit skies.

7. Adorable furnished cabin close to Westcliffe's pristine wildlife

This is it! This is the secluded-in-the-woods property that houses as many as six guests with a room to spare. “Crazy Woman Ranch” in South Fork is an Airbnb vacation rental offering a singular experience. Living in the cabin and the surrounding land is as close an encounter to Westcliffe as it can get. The cabin’s sleeping quarters remind you of furnished hotel rooms. Meanwhile, the kitchen and common areas are more like the setup you have at home. The host says you need to plan your showers but other than that you can relax and watch deer and elk roam from a safe distance. Mountain trails and fishing haunts are just a short drive or a comfortable walk away.

A log cabin outfitted as a spacious house for six guests is available as an Airbnb vacation rental in Westcliffe. Its best feature is an incomparable view. The house is a class of its own, with panoramic views of mountains, woods, and creeks. The cabin’s decks are strategically positioned for unhindered sightseeing from home.
