When you approach the front deck of our patch of heaven, the first thing you’ll notice is the stunning vista across the plains looking north toward the Continental Divide. Moose, coyote, deer, & elk often cross these plains so keep your eyes peeled. We also attract a variety of birds with multiple feeders. After entering the living space you’ll be greeted with a phenomenal open concept living room/dining room/kitchen area complete with lovely hardwood floors and a built-in fireplace unit to keep the space cozy on those chilly mountain evenings. The surrounding windows maximize the view, bringing the outdoors in and allowing the shadows of shimmering aspen leaves to dance across the walls. The spacious kitchen incorporates granite countertops, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and all the culinary utensils & accoutrements needed to create delicious meals should you decide to cook in. There is ample seating tastefully placed throughout the shared space, and the first floor is the perfect entertainment setting for your group. There is one bedroom equipped with a king bed and one full bathroom on the first floor. The two remaining bedrooms on the second floor each have queen beds with private adjoining bathrooms. Zoned heating throughout the house allows you to set the temperature that makes you most comfortable. The house is fully wi-fi equipped with dependable internet connection via Starlink so whether you’re doing some work while enjoying the view, or enjoying a movie night on one of the cabin’s two TV’s, you’ll have the connection you need. The relaxing atmosphere continues as you move out the back door onto the small patio with a propane grill, private hot tub that is perfectly situated to enjoy the northern view, and a marked trail leading to the National Forrest border.
For your stay, Moose Crossing cabin will be fully stocked with fresh linens, towels, plenty of soft blankets, paper products, hand soap/lotion, cleaning supplies, and basic pantry spices.
