We loved our stay here. The cabin was great, we saw several deer and a couple of elk. The poor mountain is still recovering from a fire but we still had great views. It was cool and rainy a couple of days. We had a wonderful relaxing vacation.

The property was beautiful. The home was immaculate. Every detail was thoughtfully considered. Had a question about the heating and the owner was quick to respond and very helpful. I would definitely recommend and hope to stay there again.

A great cabin!

We enjoyed our stay here, the cabin was very clean and updated. The pictures of the bathtub don’t do it justice, it’s incredible! And seeing/hearing elk & mule deer right from the cabin itself was a treat. Would stay again for sure.

Amazing cabin with an amazing experience

This is my first vacation ever out of state and I gotta say it was hands down my favorite vacation I’ve ever had. The cabin is beautiful, but the scenery in the mountain range is what got me. WOW. Definitely would love to come back in the winter.

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin is easy to access, and we had so much room to spread out. The cabin is beautiful and had everything we needed to enjoy our week. We visited Walsenburg, La Veta, Cuchara, Trinidad and Pueblo. We visited Bishop's Castle, drove on three scenic byways and so enjoyed this area of Colorado. We drove over to Antonito to ride the Cumbres & Toltec train, which was wonderful! Our only disappointment was not seeing any elk during our visit. I highly recommend Roaming Elk Lodge!

Best stocked rental

Stayed here for 6 nights with my husband and my adult sister who has some mental disabilities. We were so impressed of how stocked this cabin was, from coffee, to spices, all the kitchen appliances and utensils you can think of. Extra linens, bath towels and even extra blankets. Every room clean, dust free, bug free just a very well kept home and an enjoyable stay. Very recommended and will come back again!

Felt like home!

The pictures didn’t do this home justice. Up to date clean and extremely comfortable. My Wife and I decided to have a vacation with our adult children and show them around the area where I grew up and had an amazing time. We had several day trips to Royal Gorge, Red River, Sand Dunes and still everyone’s highlight of the trip was this wonderful cabin. We immediately felt at home and hated leaving. If we plan a trip back to the valley this will be our first choice.

Peaceful with breathtaking views

Loved this property and did not want to leave. The owners definitely think of their guests with how well stocked the cabin is with essentials and personal commodities in case you forgot yours. Was disappointed that we didn’t see wild life but i think we were in the wrong season for the Elk and they were higher up in the mountains. Please note the cabin is secluded and it takes about 30 min to get to a paved road. I would not recommend driving a car back to the cabin. The road isn’t paved and it’s a very rough ride. Advise to use SUV or truck.

Cozy Cabin

We had a Great time at at this cozy cabin. It had everything we needed to be comfortable. We heard Elk calling almost every night! We even had a family of Deer visit in the front yard! It was a very peaceful stay. I liked that there was a basement area where I could easily store my hitch carrier and couple of electric scooters. I loved the wrap around balcony! Although the view of the side balcony was blocked by a few trees, it was still very nice. Our host Peter sent us everything we needed to access the cabin. We had no issues at all. He made himself available if we needed anything. I only wish I had more time to stay longer. It was a was a very much needed and relaxing getaway for me and my family. I highly recommend this place. Thanks for some Great Memories!

Excellent Cabin with great renters!

Good stay

Was a good little get away with the family to relax. Only downsides were that we wished there was a cozier couch to lay around in at the cabin and second the queen beds were hard as rocks my wife and I had a terrible time sleeping and woke up sore every morning. Other than that it was a very pleasant trip
