After a day outdoors, the fireplace offers warmth and charm, making the cabin feel like a true retreat. Snow in this area usually melts quickly, but during active storms, travel can be more challenging. For the safest experience, 4WD or AWD is recommended. Roads are plowed once about 4 inches of snow have accumulated, but the driveway and cabin stairs are not regularly cleared. Shovels are available at the base of the stairs if needed. If a major snowfall is expected, I’m happy to work with you to reschedule if necessary — your comfort and safety always come first \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* 23-ZONE3448 \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* Guest access Guests have access to the second floor/main level of the house.

It was peaceful and quiet and the place is quite nice. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch to watch the sunset. I must say that I appreciate the fact that they have an a/c available. We only needed it one night but appreciate that it was available. The drive into Estes Park is beautiful and easy to make. The drive into the meadow from the main road is also a nice ride. We would definitely stay here, again. ##### Ann R.

From our first contact with Cory, everything was outstanding. He made the entire process completely simple and stress free. Cory was so helpful and kind, and his email check ins were appreciated! The cabin was well stocked, super clean and we absolutely loved the peaceful location. It was so quiet! Our vacation was everything we hoped it would be, and a lot of that was due to Cory’s care he puts into his cabin and guests. Thank you again, Cory! We can’t wait to return! ##### Sara M.
