INDEPENDENCE PASS & TWIN LAKES

Located among Colorado's tallest peaks near breathtaking Independence Pass -- Creekside Cabin is only 5-min from Twin Lakes, 10-min from the top of Independence pass, 35 min to quaint mountain towns of Leadville, Buena Vista and Aspen (Note: Aspen is accessible by car only when the pass is open, approximately May - October.

The immediate area offers limitless opportunities for outdoor adventure - hiking, biking, fly fishing, lake fishing, summiting 14ers, paddle boarding, kayaking, rafting, rock climbing, ice fishing, backcountry skiing, downhill skiing, snow-shoeing, and more. For shopping, dining, and entertainment: Twin Lakes has some nice offerings and Aspen, Buena Vista and Leadville cannot be beat.
