Tucked along a year-round mountain stream near Howard, Colorado — just a short drive from charming Salida — this peaceful cabin retreat has been welcoming guests since 2008.

The 1,200-square-foot cabin is thoughtfully furnished for comfort and relaxation. The smoke-free, pet-free home includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, and additional sleeping space in the living room with two futons — accommodating families, couples traveling together, or multi-generational getaways.

Summary: The host is great and genuinely cares about the experience of the guests! She’s taken great care to ensure that the cabin feels like home, from ample towels, purified water, quality dishes and cooking utensils, comfortable indoor and outdoor seating, cozy designing. The property is amazing! The cabin is cozy but big enough that you’re not tripping over each other, great star gazing, and zen inducing stream!
