You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Magnolia Mountain Getaway

This rustic, bohemian style mountain home, with amazing views of Boulder and Boulder Canyon, is just ten minutes from bustling Pearl Street and downtown Boulder, but feels a million miles away.

If you're looking for more space or want to have a family reunion, we have another guest house on the property. Check it out here: https://www.vrbo.com/2605052?noDates=true

The space:
The cabin is located on 10 acres of pristine private property in the Roosevelt National Forest. With the mountain air blowing through the pines, you'll forget you're only 10 minutes from the city.
An engineer rents the attached walkout basement with a completely separate exterior entrance and no interior access. Extremely quiet and usually only around 3-4 days/week.

Guest access:
There are 2 additional houses on the property and guests are welcome to access every inch of the 10 acres. In addition to the 2 acres of developed land, there are 8 acres of trails surrounding the property, several of which switchback down to Boulder Creek. Guests are encouraged to hike and adventure out directly from the property.

Other things to note
Directions from downtown Boulder:

- Head WEST on Canyon Blvd/CO 119
- LEFT onto Magnolia Dr (also known as Magnolia Rd)
- Our place is just 3/4 of a mile up Magnolia Dr.

You will be staying in the cabin on the right side of the driveway. Parking is just past the first house on the left side of the driveway, next to the canopy carport. You can enter the cabin from either door on the upper level.

The main source of heat is a thermostat-controlled forced air unit. Area heaters are stored in the closets if additional heat is needed. There's also a wood burning fireplace, so we suggest bringing some wood bundles if you want to keep it extra cozy.

During winter, a vehicle with AWD or 4x4 is recommended. If you don't have that, please make sure you have snow chains for your tires.

Have a blast and we look forward to meeting you!

GORGEOUS place to stay!

We had an incredible stay with even better views. The location was great, you’re about ten minutes from downtown which gives you plenty to do. Watching the sunrise in the morning over the mountains was breathtaking, and the deck gives you a great spot to sit and enjoy your coffee in the morning.

Beautiful Retreat

My husband, two boys (ages 9 & 5), and myself stayed at Magnolia Mountain Getaway for 6 days and it was so hard to leave! Such a beautiful cabin and property. Check in, and communication throughout our stay was a breeze. This was honestly the first time I've never had questions or needed anything fixed/replaced/supplied. Hoping we will make it back!

Beautiful sunrise!

Cozy house perfect for a family or 2 to 3 couples. Views off of the balcony were amazing. Enjoyed the sunrise with my coffee on the first morning. Driveway is dirt with some ruts so the Jeep we had came in handy.

Perfect Stay

The purpose of our trip was to get away, relax and enjoy nature. This house was perfect for that. It had everything you need. The beds were extremely comfortable! We even woke up to snow one morning. My dad is older and had a little trouble getting in and out of the tub. My only suggestion would be a dresser of some kind in the master bedroom. I can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful Mountain Stay

The house has a fantastic view for stargazing and gorgeous mountain views that are a dream to wake up to. The immediate surroundings are very quiet, but it only takes a quick 15 minute drive to get into Boulder. The hosts were very responsive, and provided access to essentials during our stay. If you're looking for something in this area, consider your search over!

Parents Boulder Trip

Great stay and the cabin is very true to the pictures. The location is amazing and finding it with the additional instructions was very easy. There are some quirks to the place; but as someone else who lives in the mountains I understand living that high can dictate utilities and certain aspects of daily living! All in all our family enjoyed our stay!

Colorado Trip

The property is located close to Boulder and Nederland. Nothing extravagant but nothing is missing either. Great views, close to hiking, skiing, and fishing. Check in and check out were simple and efficient. Owners live on property and were kind and helpful. The driveway can be hard to find especially from the West. If you have small children bring a humidifier, especially if you aren't used to the dry Colorado air. We would stay here again.

The BEST

I cannot say enough good things. Beautiful location, SO much to do in Boulder and my husband took advantage of fishing and hiking. The cabin was so immaculate and comfortable. It was great to have a full kitchen. Had some snow and it made everything look magical. Our hosts were super friendly and immediately reachable when we had questions. We will be back.

Awesome Location/Boulder Getaway

The location of the property was perfect for us - close proximity to Boulder while being far enough to be peaceful, quiet, and without much light pollution at night (great for stargazing and photography). Wildlife visits every day/night - turkeys, hummingbirds, and a family of deer slept just below the back deck one night. The place could use a couple of upgrades, but it was comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. A great home base for excursions into Boulder, Rocky Mt Park, and surrounding hiking areas. Thanks!

Beautiful View

The View was stunning. Cabin was as pictured. Proximity to Boulder and Nederland was great. Communication with the owner was solid. The only thing we would note is that it could help to have more information on the driveway. There is a marker but it comes quickly and is just before a sharp curve. Exiting felt scary since you can't see to the right until you are just outside of the driveway. Entering the property is also a little daunting as you can't see the property until you go up and over the entry. With it being so near the edge we were nervous.
