Secluded Log Cabin on 2 acres, backs to Pike National Forest, just 15mi to Breck

Thanks for stopping by! Check out our cozy & quaint log cabin in Placer Valley, with exceptional mountain views, just 15 miles south of Breckenridge over Hoosier Pass.

Secluded on a 2+ acre aspen grove mixed with towering evergreens & backing up to Pike National Forest, this cabin is a slice of Rocky Mountain paradise. Whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation, the quintessential Colorado stay awaits you. Leave the hustle behind & come on up to truly get away from it all!

Firstly, WINTER IS HERE! So, if you're booking for Nov-April... 100% plan on having a winter ready vehicle. The road to the cabin is county maintained and plowed, but you will need an AWD/4WD with good tires to comfortably maneuver the roads and driveway. Please contact me if you have questions on winter up here in the High Country...

We're located in a wonderfully remote mountain setting at 11,000 feet, just below a string of legendary Colorado 14er's (Mt. Bross, Mt. Lincoln, Mt. Democrat, Quandary Peak, etc). World-class hiking, fishing, camping, biking, & skiing are just minutes away. This really is the “get-away-from-it-all” Colorado cabin experience, while also not being too far off the grid. Breckenridge is just 15 miles away (~30min drive), offering endless options to feed the need for any dining & shopping ... but I still recommend you come on up to unplug !

For Summer months, there's a small network of trails on our private land, just waiting for you to explore off the back deck. Whether it's a short hike, hammock sesh, or a picnic up top, the "backyard" is picture perfect an easy getaway in to nature. The lot also backs up to Pike National Forest, so for the more adventurous souls, you're welcome to continue exploring/hiking without encroaching on any private property. During the winter, we have a set of snowshoes that you're welcome to use as well.

Looking indoors, the cabin is 3 stories with an open, quaint floor plan and a detached 2-car garage. Perfectly equipped for a romantic getaway, a few friends, or a small family. It has a Queen, Full, and Twin beds. Queen & Twin on bottom floor. Full Bed in the Loft. Please be advised, however, that the downstairs bedroom isn’t totally closed off from the upstairs (see photos of the open spiral staircase), so if you’re looking for tons of privacy indoors, this might not be the cabin for you :)

We've also finally received our Starlink internet so if you're in the market for streaming video &/or remote work, this is your spot!

*OUTSIDE*
• Large wrap-around deck with amazing views of Placer Valley and Mt. Silverheels w/ picnic table, chairs, & swing.
• Back yard up the hill behind the cabin ... Hiking and gathering areas carved out on the private land. Picnic table, hammock, Adirondack chairs.
• Detached 2 car garage, perfect hideaway for the car and/or your outdoor gear.

*DOWNSTAIRS* (1st floor) ~ Master Bedroom
• Private entry
• Queen bed (Sealy premium mattress, plush down comforter, high quality linens)
• Full bathroom with brand new washer/dryer
• Day bed (twin) with comfy mattress & a spare mattress underneath that can be pulled out on the floor. Great for the 3rd wheel or kiddos.

*MAIN LEVEL* (2nd floor, main entry)
• Fully loaded kitchen (fridge, stove, microwave, all utensils & cookware). Complimentary coffee & tea. Bar seating for 3. ***No Dishwasher***
• Wood stove
• 2nd full bathroom
• Dining area with table and chairs.

Also, in advance of booking, please be aware that there is a narrow spiral staircase connecting the main floor and downstairs. Should this be a problem, you can also access the lower level by using the staircase outside the cabin and walking to the lower level entrance. The loft stairs are also on the steep side.

Perfect getaway cabin
We had an amazing stay at this charming cabin in Alma, Colorado. The cabin was the perfect mix of authentic mountain charm and modern comfort, with everything we needed to relax and enjoy our getaway. The views from the property were amazing! The location was ideal—close to Breckenridge and other quaint towns, yet peaceful and quiet. The town of Alma itself was a delightful surprise, with great restaurants and friendly locals. Jared went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful stay, providing helpful information and being very accommodating. We highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a perfect mountain retreat!

Amazing mountain getaway!
Loved this cabin - it’s exactly as the pictures and description! Convenient enough to Alma and FairPlay for any town needs, but secluded enough that you’re not bothered by neighbors or other typical city noise. Sitting on the front porch with your morning cabin was one of my favorite parts…or maybe it was the hammocks tucked in the trees…or maybe the records collection or lounge upstairs?? Hard to make a decision!! Caveat for anyone leery of spiral staircases - this one can be tricky on the way down, and will make you watch what you eat in the way up! 1000% would stay here again!!!!

Cabin was in a great location with excellent hiking and close to Breck. Jared is a great host, very helpful and extremely responsive. We have stayed in a lot of cabins and this one was the best stocked by far. Has everything you'll need for your stay. Lots of great personal touches to make it feel very homey. Also loved the trails around the cabin and the view from the front porch was fantastic. Would definitely stay here again!

Thinking about this cabin? BOOK IT!
Where do I even start? Wow…just wow!!! Everything we could have hoped for and more. The owner, Jared, was an amazing host and had everything we needed plus was willing to help with whatever else we needed! The cabin itself was the perfect retreat- awesome location with an amazing trail he’s put a lot of time into behind the cabin. The record player was so fun and we loved sitting on the swing on the deck in the mornings and evenings and watch the world go by! Like I put in the title, if you’re thinking about renting this cabin, just do it! Absolutely everything about it was perfect- my family and I had the best vacation!!!

Perfect Mountain Getaway
Wow! The fabulous views and accessible, yet remote location alone would've won us over, but Jared has truly gone the extra mile! The cabin was spotless and welcoming, with a comfy bed, thick towels, and his-and-hers robes. We loved playing records on the turntable (so many to choose from!), catching the early morning sun on the front porch (and greeted by a family of 3 moose who strolled by!), and exploring the trails behind the cabin. Don't hesitate to keep climbing through the Pike National Forest - you'll be rewarded with more spectacular views! We hated to leave!

Alpine Cabin Perfection
The title says it all - our experience visiting Jared’s mountainside cabin was truly exceptional - from check-in to departure, none of our needs went unmet. Jared clearly thought of all of the amenities to help us wind down and feel very much like we were home away from home at his cabin in the woods. Views from the wrap-around porch alone are enough to book a stay here - even as temperatures dropped, we were outside for the majority of our time enjoying the scenery and taking walks up the mountainside. But you’ll also find that being inside the cabin provides just as much joy. We enjoyed cozy fires on the wood-burning stove, played board games, napped in the loft hammock, and put Jared’s wide variety of vinyl to great use on his record player as we spent time cooking and sipping coffee on the porch swing. There is a widescreen tv available as well, but we never once turned it on throughout our entire trip. We were lucky enough to have a surprise sunset visit from a curious fox - and even sighted a mama bear and her cub high up on the trail during one early morning hike. As far as location, Breckenridge was a quick drive further down the mountain, and we were glad to visit tiny downtown Alma for groceries as we arrived, prior to checking in. Jared’s property is situated in a fantastic spot - up the mountain away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to town for a quick store-run. It isn’t a question of whether we’ll be returning to this cabin hideaway…it’s just a matter of when, and we are already looking at our calendars. Jared, thank you for your incredible communication with us prior to and during our stay. We couldn’t have asked for better hospitality!

We can’t thank Jared enough for such a warm/inviting perfect honeymoon! From the scenery, cleanliness, vinyl records to dance to..., and I could keep going. He even had his friend plow the driveway at 5:30am because we’d had the craziest snow storm the day before!! It was a magical week!!

The perfect mountain getaway!
Our stay at this cozy mountain getaway was simply AMAZING! This was our FIRST experience with VRBO and frankly, now we're spoiled. :) The cabin and views were beyond beautiful and exceeded our expectations. It's obvious that Jared has put countless hours of time and effort into making the cabin and surrounding area a perfect retreat. His communication with us leading up to our stay and even while we were there was top notch and we felt well informed and very welcome. We enjoyed exploring the "back yard" trails and all the beauty Colorado has to offer. We will definitely return to this cabin and be recommending it to friends and family who are looking for an amazing experience they will be talking about for years to come. Thank you Jared!! - Chasie & Nate

Great Cabin and Location
This cabin was great if you are looking for some awesome hiking and chilling. For those who like to shop or browse it is a short 20 minutes from Breckenridge, 30 minutes to Frisco, only 2 minutes from Alma, and a quick 15 minutes to FairPlay. The cabin had great amenities, beautiful views from the front porch and very comfy beds. The listing was accurate and we will be staying here again. I average about 3 cabin stays a year for hiking vacays and this rates up near the top.
