Secluded Gorgeous Cabin-Hike-Snowshoe-steps away from Roosevelt National Forest

Welcome to our newly remodeled and updated cabin, located just minutes away from the Eldora Ski area, Nederland, and Central City in Colorado. This cozy retreat features three bedrooms, two of which have comfortable queen-size beds, while the third bedroom offers a new high-end sofa sleeper. The cabin also includes a well-appointed bathroom and a wood-burning stove with central heating for your comfort.

Enjoy the modern amenities provided, including high-speed WiFi internet, cable with Netflix, and a DVD player. The upgraded appliances in the fully equipped kitchen make meal preparation a breeze, and a gas barbecue is available for outdoor cooking. For your convenience, the cabin is equipped with a new washer and dryer.

The master bedroom is tastefully furnished and features a doctor's choice mattress and upgraded bedding, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Start your day by sipping your morning coffee on the deck, while marveling at the wildlife in your own private back yard.

The cabin property is bordered by the National Forest, providing easy access to hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing adventures. For downhill skiing enthusiasts, Eldora Ski Resort is only a 15-minute drive away, offering both Alpine and Nordic skiing options.

In the nearby area, you'll find a variety of attractions to explore. Try your luck at the casinos, relax at a spa, indulge in delicious meals at local restaurants, or stock up on groceries at the nearby store. The newly built Gilpin Co recreation center offers a lap pool, a separate kids pool with a water slide, a fitness area, and a skating pond.

For a fun evening out, visit "Roy's Last Shot," a bar and restaurant located just one mile from the cabin. They offer an extensive menu, pool tables, an outdoor deck, and a friendly atmosphere that welcomes both kids and dogs. Next door to Roy's, you'll find Mid County Liquors for your beverage needs.

Surrounded by breathtaking views and adjacent to the national forest, our cabin provides the perfect escape. Explore nearby towns such as Rollinsville, located about four miles away, or venture further to Black Hawk and Central City, approximately 15 miles away. For a day trip, consider visiting Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, which are approximately 60 miles from the cabin. If you're seeking an adrenaline rush, whitewater rafting in Idaho Springs is just a 30-minute drive away.

Fabulous stay
My family loved the cabin in the woods, hiking, visiting Nederland, skiing Eldora, and going into nearby Denver. Everything we needed plus more! Hosts were kind and accomodating.

Besties Mountain Vacation
Everything about Dancing Bear Cabin was wonderful! Tucked perfectly away and yet we felt safe and secure being just us City gals! Loved exploring all the surrounding local establishments and the gift shops... There is so much to do just there on site too if you want to just escape and get back in touch with nature... So beautiful....

This is our second stay at Dancin Bear Cabin and just as fabulous as the first time. We strive to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life in Michigan. We come to Colorado to see our oldest daughter and son in law, and this cabin is absolutely perfect. Within an hour drive of just about anything we want to do. Hopefully will be staying again in Summer 2024.

Cross country road trip
This was the perfect stay for my parents and I on our cross country road trip! So secluded and up in the mountains. Exceeded all expectations. Such a beautiful, clean, cozy cabin. The drive up with spectacular. Donna was super helpful, kind, and detail oriented! Would love to stay with them again.

Spacious and beautiful, inside and out!
The cabin is lovely with tons of space to relax inside and out. The small touches here and there really add to the experience and help to feel welcome in the space. Outside is breathtaking and the tree swings were a favorite!

Great mountain escape
The property and the house are nicer than the photos. We really enjoyed relaxing on the deck and feeding the hummingbirds, chickadees, and chipmunks! Nice hike up by the Moffat tunnel.

Our second stay - as good as the first
We very much enjoy Don and Donna's cabin. We love having the Roosevelt National Forest as our back yard and the peace and quiet it affords. And we enjoy hiking and there are tons of trails in the area to choose from. The cabin is well stocked with kitchen essentials, which is important as we like to do a little cooking and grilling to cut down on the trips to the nearest town for food and groceries. Donna was quick to respond to a couple of questions we had in the first two days. The only minor inconvenience was that the outside trash container was already full when we arrived so we had to store our trash inside the cabin for the duration of our stay, as we couldn't put it outside due to bears possibly making a visit. This was our second stay in the cabin and we'll be looking to make a third stay in the future for sure.

Rural, wooded forest, cabin in the woods- away from traffic, furnished with all the amenities. A get-away. Never really expected having TV reception (x3).....a wood burning stove, washer/dryer, all the creature comforts. Clean/friendly and homey.

Great launching point to enjoy the mountains
Had a great stay at the very cute cabin. Had everything listed and a well stocked kitchen with utensils. Make sure to remember/write down the entry code before you are out of cell reception. Once at the cabin the wifi worked well- but it was a great chance to disconnect. The owners were very quick and friendly at responding.

Beautiful cabin that is comfortable and centrally located to all Gilpin County has to offer. Owners were helpful and friendly in every encounter. Short distance from Eldora Ski Resort, Blackhawk Casinos, Carribou Trail, and the city of Nederland. Cabin has everything you need to be comfortable and relax with the peace and quiet of being in the middle of the forest. Will definitely stay here again!
