The Everest Lake Lodge is one of our favorite rentals. Marshall and Heather are both fantastic, and their property is exactly as advertised. The Lodge is clean and thoughtfully stocked, the beds are all very comfortable, and the setting and location are unbelievable. We thoroughly enjoyed all of the pictures and mementos from their exploits and travels. You will not be disappointed.

The most amazing Rocky Mountain family vacation

We had an incredible family vacation in Heather and Marshall’s home. A true getaway, with unexpected spring snow, in a remote luxury cabin in the mountains. Marshall was a fantastic host and very friendly and helpful. Their snowshoe gear was such a treat, we were all able to hike St Mary’s glacier in the show and ice. The home was stupendous - Marshall’s cool memorabilia, the gorgeous interiors and the views, oh my gosh the views. The snow and remote feeling was magical. Can’t wait to come back in warmer months!

Beyond Expectation!

This is the second year in a row we vacationed in Colorado and were blown away with our experience. Being from SC we wanted to experience snow and boy did we. Even better than the snow, however was the total experience starting with amazing hosts Heather and Marshall. The views were breathtaking and the cabin was immaculate! The hosts were always willing to answer any questions and even made themselves available to drive up the mountain when we needed something. We plan on making a return trip next year and will definitely be staying at this little piece of heaven!

Beautiful Mountain Home

We stayed over Christmas and the house was beautifully decorated. It was very clean and well stocked as well. The Mountains with the snow background was gorgeous and we enjoyed sledding and walks in the snow. The home was very comfortable with two living areas and an additional loft. It would also be lovely in the summer to visit! Thank you to the hosts for detailed information about the home and good communication.

Amazing house/views/lake

The house was even better in person. Views were spectacular. Gorgeous lake. We saw a moose with 2 babies in the yard/lake. It is a haul up the mountain but worth it. We had Naughty Cooking Co come cook dinner one night - great food and service - highly recommend! Hosts were wonderful and very communicative.

Gorgeous Get-Away!

It's a great house in the mountains with fishing in the backyard. It is located 18-20 minutes from the main road. The house had everything we could think of. I asked Heather about beach towels for the rafting tours and trout fishing, and she purchased some for the home.

Thanksgiving

Marsha and Heather have a beautiful home that fit our needs perfectly for a Thanksgiving family getaway. Their home has a great kitchen for cooking a wonderful dining room table that seats 8. The 4 bedrooms 3 bathrooms were perfect for our group. Plenty of winter activities just outside the door including snowshoeing, sledding and x-cross skiing. We hiked up to St Mary's glacier and it was beautiful. The best thing about this home the mountain feel and charm. We would love to come back and experience summer here with the lake and surroundings.

Fabulous Family Retreat

Was the perfect retreat for our family. Whether we were enjoying the pristine lake surrounded by mountains, hiking the glacier, fishing, canoeing, or just reading a book on the outside deck, we loved every moment. Home is clean and well furnished for every comfort. Owners have anticipated most anything we needed for a restful week enjoying making memories with our family. Highly recommend! Altitude took a little time for us flatlanders to adjust to, but definitely worth it!! We hope to return!

Home away from home

I have rented many homes before but never have I had one so fully stocked. If I needed it, it was there. In fact, things I didn't even know I needed were there! The house was stunning along with the views. This house was better than I imagined and the next time we travel out to Colorado, we will absolutely be returning.

Summer Mountain Escape

Our family absolutely loved our 5 night stay at Marsh's mountain home! The house was better than advertised and was the best decorated/supplied home I've ever seen for a VRBO rental. Marsh was very responsive to our needs and had many suggestions for us to explore the area. We actually changed our travel plans to spend more time at the home/on the lake, because of the tranquility of the area and amazingly cool weather for July. The trailhead to St. Mary's glacier/lake was an easy walk from our front door and is a "must do".

Waterfront Serenity

My husband and I stayed for a quiet waterfront getaway with our dogs. The house was beautiful and fully stocked. It was so quiet and peaceful, felt like we had the lake to ourselves. Spend hours on the canoe fishing and even caught a rainbow trout. The hike up St Mary’s Glacier is a must! The hosts were extremely thoughtful when our plans changed last minute….even found our cell phone that we accidentally left. HIGHLY recommend The Everest Cabin for your next getaway!

Mountain Paradise!

This cabin home and hosts live up to the 5 star rating. Had everything we needed plus more (Canoe, fishing equipment, all household necessities and comforts)! Plus the tribute to Marsh’s adventures thru the house of conquering the 7 summits made it a bit of a fun museum for all of us! Hosts are exceptional with communication. Idaho springs was fun and the st mary’s glacier hike was convenient and gorgeous. We accomplished our mission of seeing fall colors, fishing on the lake, going on hikes and eating yummy food. Thanks Heather and Marsh! We hope to be back.

Superb in every way

Our entire experience was absolutely wonderful. It was more than we could have expected in many ways. The location is perfect; easy to get to, quintessential Rocky Mountain environment, and simply beautiful. The house is gorgeous, meticulously well-maintained, and stocked with everything you might need and more. Everyone in the family (3 generations) thoroughly enjoyed themselves. It was relaxing and tranquil but there was plenty to do for everyone to stay active. The private lake was sublime and the fishing was great. Most of all, the hosts, Marsh and Heather were beyond hospitable. They were extremely welcoming and made us feel like honored guests in their amazing home. We are very grateful.

Beyond Exceeded Expectations

We chose this house over a few others based on the reviews of the hosts - Marshall and Heather. To say they exceeded expectations would be an understatement. The home is BEAUTIFUL, clean, amazing views, equipped with everything you might need and more…and Marshall and Heather truly went above and beyond for our family’s stay, making sure we were comfortable, safe and well taken care of! I could write an entire book about all of the wonderful things this home has to offer. Thank you for making our snowy cozy cabin dreams come true!! (This was our first time staying at a Vrbo and I think Marshall and Heather have set the bar too high for us moving forward 😆.) We had a most wonderful time. Thank you.

Mountain idyll

Spectacular setting, large house very well laid out for a group, with plenty of room for both gatherings and quiet individual privacy. Very comfortably furnished, with great amenities including canoe and fishing gear, propane fire pit, children’s books, games. Well-equipped kitchen (appliances could use some minor maintenance). We loved sitting on the upper deck overlooking the lake at the end of the day. We had significant ongoing trouble unlocking the front door, which the owner seems to know about but has not fixed, and a moldy smell in the lower level of the house caused us to sleep with open windows. These issues did not prevent us from having a wonderful stay.

This is a gorgeous home. The view is spectacular. Snowshoes were provided and there was a fun walk on the glacier. The beds are very comfortable. A portable crib and high chair were provided. Marsh was very welcoming. He gives you a signed copy of his book which I enjoyed reading when I got home. The Safeway in the town is very good for food shopping. We shopped at a Whole Foods in Denver on the way there and didn’t really need to. Several of us did experience altitude issues, headache and/or nausea, which lasted 1-2 days. Easily treated with NSAIDS and getting off the mountain briefly. I highly recommend staying here, and would love to come back in the summer.
