Connor2019-12-15T00:00:00ZWas für ein toller Aufenthalt! Wunderschöne Aussichten, schnelle Antworten auf alle Fragen und großartige Lage zwischen BV und Leadville! Danke für ein tolles Bergwochenende!
Luigi2019-12-01T00:00:00ZSorina war eine wundervolle Gastgeberin! Sie hat alles zur Verfügung gestellt, was man braucht, um in den Bergen zu sein. Sie hat auch dafür gesorgt, dass wir im Voraus alles wussten, was wir wissen mussten. Da ich aus Louisiana komme, war es unglaublich hilfreich, alle Tipps für den Schnee und die Höhe zu haben. Eine solche Ansicht kann man auch nirgendwo bekommen. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall. Wir würden gerne eines Tages wiederkommen!
Katie2019-11-16T00:00:00ZSorinas Ort liegt auf einer perfekten Höhe, um die atemberaubende Aussicht auf die Twin Lakes zu genießen, die von Bergen umgeben sind. Sie gab auch detaillierte Anweisungen für Lebensmittel und Tankstellen. Sie ist eine tolle Gastgeberin und würde auf jeden Fall wieder kommen !!

SuperhostThis is a historic Western crib house with an updated, cozy interior and front porch facing the mountains! Sitting at the foot of Mt Elbert in the quaint historic village of Twin Lakes, CO, this cabin is perfect for a single. The building is obscured from the road for extra privacy. See mountain views from our private patio! Whether you decide to partake in one of the area's adventures—or just soak in the quiet atmosphere—stargazing in the evenings and a cool mountain breeze await.
The "Crib" has off street parking, and it is it's own building so you have your own door and front porch! The patio (steps from your front door) is shared with guests staying in the another small cabin. The living space is small, yet comfortable and amazingly functional, with easy access to what modern people might need. There's also a glass chandelier, oil paintings, and lots of mirrors as a playful nod to what this building once was :)
It's amazing what fits tidily into this little space!
Full kitchen:
The kitchen is small but concise and efficient! It has a copper kitchen sink, gas range and oven, granite countertops (with enough space to prep dinner!), half fridge and freezer perfect for one (see pics). All stainless pots and pans, toaster, coffee maker, and pretty much any utensil you'd need to create a delicious meal!
Dining area:
A handmade, sturdy, collapsible oak dining table large enough for two (wooden chairs to match tucked away but easily accessible). When the table is flipped down/collapsed, you have more than enough floor space for even the most complex yoga poses.
.75 bath:
Shower, toilet, copper sink, mirrors! And yes, we have hot water :)
Sleeping area:
A new, extra-long memory foam/coil hybrid mattress sits on a solid wood day bed. Paired with 100% supima cotton sheets, comforter, blankets, and variety of pillows you'll sleep like a baby.
Hangin' out and auxiliary:
Our extremely comfortable XL twin solid wood day bed doubles as a sofa! We've outfitted it with lots of pillows so you can sit up comfortably to read, stream tv/movies on the 24" flat screen tv (Roku!)
Fan and heater, should you need either!
When the wooden dining table is flipped down, you have more than enough floor space for even the most complex yoga poses :)
Several cabinets and drawers are available to keep your belongings organized.
Your own private front porch, and a shared patio with mountain views!
Shared charcoal grill on the patio (we provide grilling utensils)
Our town is more like a small village. Our neighbors are very quiet and respectful, and Twin Lakes retains the laid back and relaxed feel of old Colorado, which is why we love it! There are 2 other historic buildings on our property, which we rent out to 2-6 people (total) at a time (please check them out, search for "Nuthatch" in Twin Lakes)! Nuthatch cabins are 2 short blocks from a lodge that serves food and drinks, and a quaint general store that offers gas, staple groceries like bread, chips and salsa, beer, and other things (Open May-September). There are also food trucks, a gallery, and more! There are places to rent equipment for fishing, buy bait, etc. We're only 5 minutes away from the Lakes (walk or drive, depending on where you plan to hang out!), and steps away from hiking trails.

Wir hatten einen wundervollen und entspannenden zweiwöchigen Aufenthalt. Die zwei Liegestühle waren sehr genossen. Die kleine Küche war ausreichend zum einfachen Kochen. Die Lage war großartig, zwischen Aspen, Leadville und Buena Vista. Das Buch zum Independence Pass ist ausgezeichnet, voller guter Geschichte, Fotos und Wanderungen. Es ist ein kurzer Spaziergang zum lokalen Inn, für ein gutes Essen und Trinken.

SuperhostCome let nature restore you in historic Twin Lakes. Our modern, alpine cabin is located just over two hours from Denver, at the base of Independence Pass, one of the world's top scenic drives. Surrounded by 14ers and 10 minutes from Colorado's largest glacial lakes, freshly renovated Alpenglow is a perfect spot for all your outdoor adventures. Curl up by the wood-burning stove or sip your morning coffee in the hot tub--all while soaking up panoramic views of snow-capped peaks.
alpenglow: "a reddish glow seen near sunset or sunrise on the summits of mountains" (Merriam-Webster)
alpenglow: that cozy feeling you get curled up by the fire with friends after a day of fresh air and adventure

UPDATE: We want our guests to know that safety and cleanliness have always been a top priority for us, even before COVID-19. Our outstanding reviews speak for themselves, but we also want you to know that our highly experienced cleaner disinfects and sanitizes all high-touch surfaces, in addition to normal cleaning. This extra level of cleaning has always been part of our cleaning routine, and we will continue to maintain the highest standards. Of course, we ask that you wash your hands often and take the recommended precautions to protect yourself and others.
Now on to the fun stuff! Alpenglow just had a makeover! We have renovated every inch of this cabin with love. Our goal is minimalist comfort for seekers of wilderness, solitude, and community. Our freshly remodeled cabin includes wide-plank hardwood floors and a fully equipped kitchen with Copper Door coffee, quartz countertops, new appliances, dishwasher, and all the pots and pans you need (we love to cook!). No microwave; we invite you to slow down and put the fire back in your food. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area offers a handmade white oak table, dramatic pendant lighting, vaulted ceilings, HearthStone wood-burning stove, and cathedral windows looking out on the back ridge of La Plata. Mt. Elbert, Colorado's highest peak, is behind us (trailhead a few minutes down the road). We love watching the alpenglow morning and evening and we know you will, too!
Three bedrooms with brand-new beds, comfy 100% linen duvets, and crisp Supima cotton percale sheets. Main-floor queen master with en suite bathroom; two upstairs bedrooms (one queen, one full).
Two and a half baths. All bathrooms have been stylishly renovated with vintage sink, walk-in shower, wallpaper from Hygge and West, and/or porcelain tile. Bath products from Public Goods. Scandinavian-inspired towels for the bath and Turkish towels for the hot tub.
Wraparound deck with outdoor seating and hot tub.
Our cabin is located at the base of Independence Pass, on the Twin Lakes side. (Note that in winter when the pass is closed—November to May—there is no access to Aspen from our side of the pass.) Our backyard is National Forest and we are surrounded by federally-designated wilderness areas. We are in Lake County, the highest county in the Rocky Mountains. Endless options for hiking, back-country skiing, snowshoeing, paddling, rafting, rock-climbing, and mountain biking are all within minutes. We might be biased, but we can't imagine a better spot for enjoying the beauty and wilderness Colorado has to offer.
Alpenglow is ideal for families, couples, and friends looking for a quiet getaway, a personal retreat for writers and creatives, or anyone in need of nature's healing. We invite you to unplug, slow down, breathe in fresh pine, and soak up the ridiculous 360-degree views.

Alpenglow Cabin is in a secluded alpine neighborhood. This means you can see our neighbors through the trees (please respect their privacy and love of quiet) but the backyard is National Forest.
Wir hatten einen fantastischen Aufenthalt! Die Kabine ist genauso schön wie es auf den Fotos aussieht (wenn nicht mehr!). Es hat einen atemberaubenden Blick auf einen Berg direkt davor. Nachts können Sie die Sterne vom Whirlpool aus sehen. Die Liste geht weiter und weiter! Das schönste Airbnb, in dem ich je übernachtet habe. Und Christine und ihr Mann sind super nett und aufmerksam! Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt (wir waren zu dritt, wir hatten alle unsere eigenen Zimmer) und werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen.
Austin2020-01-19T00:00:00ZGemütliche Hütte ideal für Ruhe und Entspannung. Das Hotel war makellos sauber und die Aussicht auf die Berge ist nicht zu übertreffen. Plus- wer liebt keinen Whirlpool !? Auf jeden Fall empfehlen!
Nathan2020-01-02T00:00:00ZDie persönlichen Details in dieser Kabine sind göttlich. Die Kinder saßen im Whirlpool und schlitten den ganzen Tag, dann entspannten sie sich am schönen Tisch mit Spielen. Die Gelassenheit des Raumes war absolut unwirklich, und ich hoffe, eines Tages zurückzukehren!
Amanda2019-12-29T00:00:00ZHör auf zu suchen, du hast den perfekten Ort gefunden !! Diese Kabine ist noch schöner als die Fotos zeigen. Christine & Daniel haben eindeutig viel Liebe und Herz in diesen Ort gesteckt und es zeigt sich in jedem Detail. Hätte nicht besser sein können in einer schöneren Lage. Ich werde auf jeden Fall wiederkommen!
Jason2019-12-23T00:00:00ZChristine & Daniels Haus ist so ziemlich das perfekte Rocky Mountain-Erlebnis. Unsere Reise war Mitte Dezember, also hatten wir eine Idee, worauf wir uns in Bezug auf das Wetter einlassen könnten. Es schneite jedoch buchstäblich von unserem Check-in am Donnerstag bis zu unserem Check-out Mitte Samstag (wir checkten wegen des Wetters am Abflughafen vorzeitig aus). Auf dieses Wetter vorbereitet zu sein, war äußerst hilfreich. Abgesehen davon, dass Mutter Natur alles andere als hilfsbereit war, machte der Ort dies sicherlich wieder wett. Dekor, Atmosphäre, Ausstattung - alles war perfekt eingerichtet, um ein schönes Dezemberwochenende zu genießen. Als ich ein Problem mit dem Whirlpool hatte, stellte Daniel sich mehr als zur Verfügung, um das Problem bei uns zu beheben. Wenn Sie also eine ruhige Berglandschaft und einen Ort mögen, der komplimentär gestaltet ist, dann empfehle ich diesen Ort auf jeden Fall. Wir hoffen, nächstes Jahr wieder dabei zu sein!
Adam2019-12-15T00:00:00ZAlpenglow Hütte hat alle Erwartungen übertroffen. Die Kabine ist makellos und die Details und der Stil in dem Raum sind einfach besser als jede andere Vermietung, die ich je erlebt habe. Mein Freund und ich brauchten einen Mädchenausflug, um uns wieder zu verbinden und unserem geschäftigen Leben zu entfliehen ... dies war genau der richtige Ort dafür. Ich bin ein Fotograf von Beruf und konnte nicht anders, als Inspiration in jedem Zentimeter der Kabine und ihrer Umgebung zu finden. Wir wollten nicht gehen ... wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen. Ich würde einen großen Teil vermissen, wenn ich nicht erwähnen würde, welche tollen Gastgeber Christine und Daniel waren. Sie haben in jeder Hinsicht alles gegeben ... Danke, Christine und Daniel, für die Schaffung eines solchen Heiligtums in Alpenglow!
Molly2019-12-11T00:00:00ZDieser Ort ist ein Fund! Gib es nicht weiter, wenn es verfügbar ist :) Die Lage ist wunderschön, das Haus ist stilvoll und komfortabel, die Gastgeber haben buchstäblich an alles gedacht, was Sie brauchen, und dann einige (ernsthaft, so zuvorkommend!) ... Die Aussicht auf die Berge vom Haus und die tolle Terrasse sind atemberaubend! Wenn Sie dem Alltag entfliehen müssen, ist dies der Ort, an dem Sie sich verjüngen können. Das Dekor ist sehr entspannend und ist perfekt minimalistisch, so dass Sie die schöne, natürliche Umgebung genießen können. Und wieder ist dieses Hotel so gut für die Entspannung und den Komfort der Gäste gedacht. Wir wünschten, wir hätten für immer bleiben können!
Lacey2019-12-07T00:00:00ZEin ruhiger, erholsamer Kurzurlaub in wunderschöner Lage. Jede Jahreszeit wäre toll, aber der Schneefall war magisch. Ein großartiger Ort zum Entspannen und Entspannen, besonders wenn Ihre Vorstellung vom Nachtleben ein Blick auf die Milchstraße ist!

A premium mountain cabin, located just above historic Twin Lakes Village, the Bartlett is a luxurious log home retreat. Named after the prosperous 19th Century gold mine a quarter of a mile up the hill, The Bartlett is our family’s get away from the rush of everyday life. The property sits on the base of Mount Elbert—the Rockies highest summit—and it is grandfathered-in within the magnificent San Isabel National Forest, giving it breathtaking views of a few 14ers and the Twin Lakes.
The Bartlett is a luxurious, rustic log home perched at the base of Mt. Elbert—the highest peak in all of the Rockies. It features sweeping views of the Twin Lakes, Quail Mountain, Rinker Peak, and La Plata Peak.
Settled initially and named “Dayton, Colorado” in 1865. It became an important transportation hub between the towns of Leadville and Aspen. The name was changed to Twin Lakes when prospectors discovered gold and silver in Aspen in 1879.
With the need to move goods and people between the boom towns of Leadville and Aspen, Twin Lakes became a crucial stop on the road over Independence Pass—then a narrow, rough toll road, until the railroads provided a faster and easier route.
Today, Twin Lakes is a charming village where many Denverites find a weekend retreat—and because of its remote location—it hosts just a handful of full-time residents. Peace, beauty, and solace are its main winter attractions, but in summer the town livens with residents, travelers, backpackers, and outdoor sports enthusiasts. The area is especially popular for fishing, sailing, kayaking, hiking, snowmobiling and photographing quintessential Colorado scenery.

Built in 1879, Willard House was one of the first general stores in Twin Lakes. It is a comfortable get away, convenient to the gorgeous lakes across the street, is nested between the collegiate peaks, is a great place to hike, boat, fish, cross country ski and relax. It is twenty-five minutes to Leadville or Buena Vista and 40 minutes to Ski Cooper. It is rustic and comfortable.
In the summer Twin Lakes is destination location on route to Aspen at the base of Independence pass. For hikers, it is surrounded by fourteeners and the Colorado Trail goes right through town as does the Leadville 100. Twin Lakes attracts vacationers from around the world. In the winter it is almost deserted, quiet and unbelievably peaceful. If you feel like a drink or dinner on the weekends the Inn is open and serves a fabulous brunch on Saturdays and Sundays and dinner on Fridays and Saturdays. If you just want a drink, the bar is rustic and inviting. It is like stepping back in time to read, ski, snowshoe and .... breathe. Ahhhh......

A beautiful mountain escape with stunning views and instant access to outdoor adventure.
A mere 2-hour drive from Denver, our cabin allows you to escape for a weekend getaway or extended family vacation. Nestled between the historic outdoor adventure towns of Buena Vista and Leadville, and in the shadow of Colorado’s tallest peak, the village of Twin Lakes is an undiscovered gem, offering the best views in the state and immediate access to the wilderness just outside the door.
Summer visitors will enjoy access to miles of hiking and biking trails (including easy access to the south trail to the summit of Mt. Elbert), lake fishing in Twin Lakes or the Mt. Elbert Forebay, fly fishing the 100+ miles of Gold Medal trout water on the Arkansas River, whitewater rafting, or taking a scenic drive to Aspen over Independence Pass. Our 40-foot patio offers stunning views of the lakes, Mt. Hope and Mt. Elbert, and it is a great place to read a book and sip your morning coffee.
Winter offers similar outdoor recreation opportunities with great snowshoeing and cross-country ski trails, as well as ice fishing opportunities. Independence Pass is closed in the winter, so there is no winter access to Aspen, but backcountry skiing opportunities abound, and Ski Cooper (30min drive) and Copper Mountain (45min drive) are nearby ski mountains. Winter is also a good time to just cozy up by the fire and enjoy the solitude.
***The cabin is in a rural, mountainous area, accessible by dirt roads which are steep in some places. A 4WD vehicle is needed for accessing the cabin during the winter months.***
We look forward to hosting you for your next Colorado adventure!

SuperhostOur log cabin bungalow sits at the foot of Mt Elbert in the quaint historic village of Twin Lakes, CO. A short drive (and/or mere steps) from many outdoor adventures, we love that this historic building has witnessed its own adventures, too. Built from the town's first "dance hall" of generations' past, original windows perfectly frame unobstructed mountain views. Uniquely airy, sunny, but cozy—with comfy furniture and high ceilings. Let your stress float away in to the cool mountain air!
Our historic log cabin bungalow is a fun, functional, yet comfortable space. The front yard is big and great for games or general play, and the private front deck is a good distance from the (very quiet) road. Mountain views will amaze you (and the sparkling lake, which is only a 4-minute walk away, and viewable from our deck). The inside of the cabin also makes this a very special place!
Accessibility:
This is a RANCH style home, and there are no steps in the house. There is a ramp from the driveway to the wide back door (see pics). There are a few steps from the driveway to the front deck. Please see photos and don't hesitate to contact us with questions or more info! :)
Living room:
All of the comforts of home in a historic log cabin. When gazing at the mountains from the sofa or chaise gets too stressful (ha ha) we also offer a large flatscreen TV with a Roku set-up for when that gets boring (ha ha). We have high-speed internet wifi throughout the house. We love to play board games, so we are always on the lookout for ones to share with guests. If you suffer from allergies, please know that we do not allow any pets in this building.
Eat-in kitchen:
Our kitchen is sunny and airy, with a gas range and oven accompanied by plenty of prep space on the granite counter and cabinet space for groceries. All stainless pots and pans, a toaster oven, coffee maker, microwave, and pretty much any utensil you'd need to create a delicious meal. Groceries aren't provided, but we like to leave a couple little treats to welcome you :) we have a dishwasher (with detergent) to make your life a little easier! The cabin's water is filtered and potable, and a Charcoal grill can be found on the shared patio behind the cabin!
Bedrooms:
Comfort is priority. Both bedrooms are outfitted with a new mattress, hardwood bedframe, all-cotton pima sheets and cotton/linen bedspreads, plus more to layer! Each bedroom (and the main space/living room) all have their own thermostat—if there's a difference of opinion on the best temperature for sleeping :-D For more info, check out the pics!
We have an iron and ironing board, just let us know and we'll be sure it's out for you!
Bathroom:
Full bathroom (bathtub) with heavy tile, huge mirrors and two sinks! We provide Supima cotton towels, as well as microfiber towels for the beach or hot springs.
Laundry:
We have a brand-new oversize HE washer and dryer set for bungalow guests' use. We provide non-scented detergent (we are exploring a grey water system)!
Historic Twin Lakes retains the laid back and relaxed feel of old Colorado, which is why we love it! There's a few cool things to note for winter time: you'll mostly only hear birds and other wildlife (the occasional elk bugle), as we are steps from the national park, with no condos in sight! You will have sole access to our property.
This cabin is 2 short plowed blocks from our "downtown" area. Because the road to the continental divide is seasonal, there isn't much through-traffic, either! Getting here is super easy (but we recommend an appropriate vehicle for driving in snowy conditions, as we are in the Rockies!)
We are close to Leadville (21 mi), Buena Vista (25 mi), and fairly close to Salida (50 mi). Our little country store, saloon, and food trucks are seasonal (closed in winter). Please bring groceries with you! We're only 5 minutes away from the Lakes (walk, snowshoe, ccx ski, fat tire bike, drive, whatever!)

The village at Twin Lakes grew in popularity once gold was discovered in the area, with commerce centered there for area miners. In the 1860s, the area, then known as Dayton, became the county seat. When gold was discovered on Independence Pass, a toll road was established between Leadville and Aspen, making Twin Lakes the transportation hub between the two towns. After the silver boom in Leadville in 1878 to 1879, Twin Lakes became a popular summer resort, attracting the wealthy. For a more detailed look at Twin Lake’s history, follow this historic walking tour, which highlights some of the town’s original buildings.

Our Colorado vacation home is in the small town of Twin Lakes Colorado (off Hwy 82) and sits on 10 acres of property located on a hill above town. Town is close by, but the cabin has a feeling of being removed as it sits alone up on the hill with a view of lake and mountains from the wrap around deck. You may walk down to the lake in about 15 minutes through aspen and meadow. Twin Lakes is quiet year around with about 20 or so full time residents living right in town. It is common to only see a couple of people a day in the offseason, more in the summer. There is a small old fashioned general store with limited supplies and snacks — and another business that rents kayaks. There is also a historic inn that operates a restaurant serving lunch and dinner (summer only). You may link up with hiking/mountain biking trails right from the cabin (with access the Colorado trail).

THE WOLF DEN in Twin Lakes, Colorado, sits in a quiet cove of aspen and pine just minutes away from Mount Elbert's "East Ridge" trailhead and a 30-minute drive to Ski Cooper in Leadville.
On 6 acres, this expansive home offers 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, sleeping 10 people. Floor-to-ceiling windows and an open layout maximize the home’s incredible 180-degree views of Mt. Elbert, Hope Pass and the glacial waters of Twin Lakes. Take a video tour on our Instagram page, @wolfdencolorado!
At the WOLF DEN, guests can listen to the buzz of summertime hummingbirds while sitting on the flagstone patio. Or watch as a red fox explores fresh snow right outside the master bedroom window. The outdoors will beckon for guests to hike, climb, cycle, fish, raft, ski and more. Yet visitors can comfortably relax and stay "in" while still enjoying the year-round beauty that Colorado has to offer.
The WOLF DEN sleeps 8 in its main house with additional room for 2 in a private, attached garage apartment. Each family will feel as if they have privacy, yet the home's main living areas are spacious and inviting for shared meals, conversation or board games.
ACCOMMODATIONS INCLUDE:
BR 1 - Downstairs master bedroom (queen bed) with MOUNTAIN/LAKE VIEWS + attached bathroom with jetted tub, large shower and dual sinks
BR 2 - Downstairs guest room (queen bed) + adjacent powder bathroom
BR 3 - Upstairs guest room (queen and twin bed) with MOUNTAIN VIEWS + attached bathroom
BR 4 - Upstairs guest room (queen, twin and one full-sized crib) with MOUNTAIN VIEWS + access to shared bathroom
BR 5 - Attached garage apartment (queen bed and futon) + private bathroom + kitchenette + private entry through garage
A well-appointed, modern kitchen and outdoor gas grill make cooking for a hungry crowd easy. Dine at the large kitchen table or opt outside (if the season allows), where a dining table, chairs and unbeatable views create an unforgettable family dinner setting.
After dinner, make lasting memories by roasting s'mores on the outdoor fire pit, stargazing from the bubbling hot tub or curling up with a good book in the living room. One of our family's favorite evening activities is to turn off all the lights in the house and sit in the living room counting shooting stars!
Yes, the home does have a TV; but who needs a screen for entertainment when the mountains are calling? A television and DVD player (with a selection of mostly kids' movies) can be found in the living room. NO CABLE TV.
LOCATION: Centrally located, a 30-minute drive reaches some of Colorado’s famous mountain towns, including Leadville and Buena Vista. In summer/fall months, make a day trip to Aspen by means of the world-famous Independence Pass (a 1 hour drive). The Wolf Den is located right off the maintained county road, which allows for easy winter access. The drive to the nearest ski area, Ski Cooper, is 27 miles.
LEADVILLE RACE EVENTS: The Wolf Den is an excellent place for Leadville 100 race participants and their families. Our driveway is located off of the Leadville Trail 100 MTB race course — a great spot for a cheer squad. The Leadville Trail 100 Run traces through the Twin Lakes aid station, just minutes away from the house. On race night, you can watch the glow of athletes’ headlamps as they travel Hope Pass.
DOG- AND FAMILY FRIENDLY: In addition to welcoming owner-approved dogs with a $175 fee, the Wolf Den is also kid and baby friendly. One full-sized crib is located within an upstairs bedroom, and 2 portable cribs are also stored for guest use. Two booster seats may be used for dining, and children may access a supply of toys and books carefully curated by our son.
The “Den” is our young family’s basecamp for backcountry Colorado adventure, and we hope you will consider it for your next Colorado getaway or ski vacation.
