Extra spacious

Guests love this home’s spaciousness for a comfortable stay.

Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
This cabin is the perfect spot to rest after a day in the mountains! The main floor living room and kitchen are fully stocked. The upstairs loft is outfitted with a queen bed and a queen size pull-out sofa. The basement features a twin-sized bunk bed!

Our beautiful mountain location limits our access to internet, so the cell signal, WiFi and cable can be very slow or non-existent at times. We recommend planning to be off-the-grid in case this happens during your stay!

We do not allow parties.

The space
Enjoy 2 dedicated parking spots just steps away from the front door, and a second-story balcony.

Guest access
You have access to the entire cabin!

Outdoor access is limited to the space directly in front of the cabin. The surrounding areas are private property. But there are tons of great hiking options just 8 miles up the road at Echo Lake! We recommend searching "Idaho Springs" on the AllTrails website to find options and ideas.

The creek runs behind the cabins but is not physically accessible. It runs on private land that we do not own and there is a steep bank preventing access. Please respect our neighbors and do not attempt to access the creek. But please do open the cabin windows and enjoy the soothing sounds it provides!

Other things to note
No parties of any kind are allowed at our properties. A maximum of 6 people are allowed in the cabin due to fire code. We cannot grant exceptions to this, sorry!

Unfortunately we cannot accommodate any early check-ins (check-in is 4:00) because of our cleaning schedule.

Although the cabin is located just 4 miles from town (along a fully paved road), cell phone reception is limited on the property. Cable television is provided! However, our remote location limits our access to internet, so the WiFi can be very slow or non-existent at times. We recommend planning for a relaxing mountain vacation without cell service or internet, just in case technology is not cooperating when you arrive!

Neighborhood highlights

Idaho Springs is nestled alongside I-70 in the mountains west of Denver. Originally a mining town, it now welcomes tourists to enjoy historic buildings and plentiful outdoor recreation opportunities. Clear Creek runs right through town, offering exciting rapids for rafters and plenty of action for anglers. Off-road trails, rock climbing, and countless hiking spots make it easy to enjoy the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Quick highway access allows visitors to get to and from the slopes quicker and with less frustrating traffic.

My name is Caroline, and my co-host is my sister-in-law CJ! Her grandfather designed and built the cabins we are listing, along with many other family members who helped with construction. The Smithrock house was built in 1885 and remodeled by the family in 2020 :)
