Escape to a cozy and peaceful cabin in Hesperus for a cozy retreat. Our cabin sits on 35 acres in a beautiful valley in Southwestern Colorado. Rustic and cozy, this 742 sf cabin has a bedroom with a full bed and a loft with 4 twin beds. Get away from it all and relax in a quiet atmosphere. Kickback, relax, and enjoy everything our little slice of heaven has to offer. Pets are allowed. The cabin is supplied by well water + is 9 miles down a graded road so expect a 4wd vehicle in the winter and quite a bit of dust on the car in the summer. The water is well water so note that it can leave skin feeling dry (which we supply lots of lotion) and can feel mineral like. Please note we received an awful review from a woman named Deborah that you shall see below. If you read the complaints throughly, you'll see that she DID NOT read any of the property details as we clearly explained all of this in the details that you're currently reading. Please only book this cabin if you understand what a cabin experience is like. We have been proud owners and have rented on other platforms for three years and never have had an awful review. We clearly we're dealing with what we would consider a "diva". And please note that Colorado is seeing more than usual fires (as of 8/12/25) in our area, which is completely out of our control. If you would like to have an update on fire activity, please reach out to us and we can let you know :-) Our place is heavenly, and we take special care of our cabin and our guests... but sometimes you get a "Deborah Downer" type that you just can't please... please reach out with any questions. We're here for you!
