Whether you unwind on the swing on the expansive wooden deck or lounge in the glass-walled living space in this cabin, you will get the feel of sitting in the middle of the woods and snow. As a bonus, elk and deer may come and greet you too!

While the forested setting gives this cabin a sense of seclusion, restaurants and recreation are close at hand. Inside, the soft rug in front of the fireplace, the chairs on the bedroom balcony, and the fountain serving fresh soda water invite you to cozy up and enjoy a relaxing holiday.

The cherry on the cake is that the hosts insist you leave cleaning up to them. So, you need not bother about the trash, the dishes, or the linen! You are free to spend all your time creating unforgettable memories with loved ones.

9. Homey cabin with a relaxing patio (from USD 158)

Looking for an authentic cabin stay Colorado-style? This is your place. With two bedrooms, the space is just right for four friends or a small family. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave, stove, and other cooking gadgets to help you prepare meals of your choice. Chairs on the patio let you enjoy your morning coffee while soaking up the views and mountain breeze.

The high elevation eliminates the need for air-conditioning. But fireplace heating is available to keep you warm. A washer-dryer, internet, and television are among the amenities provided here. Note that given the property’s genuine mountain cabin ambiance, the staircase leading to the full bathroom in the basement is on the narrower side.
