Aspen Mountain Cabin Guest Comments
August
“ We had a wonderful week at your cabin. We were delighted with the cabin’s furnishings: the cozy bedding,
the interesting antiques, the well-stocked kitchen, etc!
We were thrilled to be able to have a fire in the fireplace in August.
We decided the sky is a brighter blue here than in Iowa.
We got lots of exercise hiking at the Brainard Lake area and
enjoyed eating at the Millsite Inn near there (Hwy 72 near Ward) and the
Meadow Mountain cafe in Allenspark.
Thank you for a great mountain vacation!"

"What a pleasant surprise! Your five big city flatlander
guests loved the space, the views – and we had a gorgeous
climb up Long’s Peak. Thanks for being such a pleasant place to land!"

"One would think aspens are aspens no matter where they are, but that simply isn’t true.
Colorado’s mountains offer something that no other place can.
Outside the charming cabin, we found trails to hike, wild life and horses
to ride, but from inside we could spend hours just watching the quaking aspens
or cuddling up and reading a book by the fires.
This cabin was the perfect place to observe God’s wonderful creation.
It’s amazing how awesome the mountains are even for those of us who live
at 7200 feet in Laramie Wyoming."

"I would have to say the place was a perfect fit: the views,
the peacefulness, the accessibility to go horseback riding, fishing, hiking, etc.
We had a 5 X 5 bull elk about 40 yards outside the kitchen one morning and
heard his bugle last night."

"The cabin was quaint and thoughtful –
very friendly. Everything came together
to create a once-in-a lifetime experience.
The beds were warm and comfy and we had a fine grilling experience too.
We all “dressed up” in the costumes for dinner, took walks and played
games in the meadow. Our “family retreat” included family
from Russia – It was wonderful!"

We cannot thank you enough for
sharing your wonderful home with us.
You have equipped your home with everything that we needed for cooking,
relaxing, playing and sleeping.
It was perfect. Your attention to detail was so appreciated.
This was our first trip to the mountains of Colorado, but it
surely will not be our last. We will be returning home with memories
of snowfalls, roaring winds, blazing fires, spirited games, beautiful hikes,
magnificent cross country skiing, but most of all the joy and laughter
shared with loved ones. "

"Thanks so much for the opportunity to stay at your awesome cabin!
We left Texas hoping for lots of rest, relaxation and fun, but most of all snow!
We got it all – what a blessing! Your home played such a big part
of our week long stay . . . games, warm cozy fires, peaceful
rest, and lots of family laughter and memories. We will cherish
the wonderful times we spent here in your cabin and Colorado!
Rocky Mountain National Park was such an awesome experience for
all of us – especially the younger kids. The views were
breathtaking – bear lake, etc. and what a hidden treasure we
found in Hidden Valley—our kids never had so much fun sledding!"

"An opportunity to visit in a great setting.
Over 3 feet of snow made good snowshoe trek and sledding
right out the back door. With a roaring fire and hot chocolate,
a wonderful way to start the New Year!"

"We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful cabin.
The kids really loved the 14 inches of snow we got while we
were here. We had not every seen Colorado in the winter time
and it was more beautiful than we imagined. The cabin had everything
we could possibly need including plenty to keep the kids entertained the
day we were snowed in. They really loved the dress up stuff and we played
UNO and Go Fish over and over again.
Thanks for a wonderful time

"What a delightful place.
We were all pleasantly surprised by the
coziness of the cabin. It is very comfortably furnished.
I had 2 wishes when we came – see animals and a beautiful view.
My wishes came true. First morning 5 mule deer grazed just into the
trees at the first break of dawn. The next morning four were back and
came right up to the back steps. Wow! What a sight! Thank you for thinking of
everything. Games, (my, how our girls love the little loft area( rooms,
bedding, washer/dryer, comfortable furniture, etc.
Thank you for wonderful memories

"Wow! What an awesome cabin!
We were so exited to find it somewhat secluded
and very near nature. As two moms and four kids, we
loved being ale to be in different areas doing different
thing and never feeling crowded. Thanks for everything."
