Grandpa's fishing cabin: a snapshot in time!

This is the cabin your grandfather stayed in when he came to Lake City.

First things first: If you are looking for suburb sterility, square corners and airtight climate control, we recommend you look at many of the other options available in Lake City. That said, if your idea of the mountains is to old-school percolate some coffee, fry some fish in cast iron, and relax in your dad's easy chair in front of an honest fire, this is the place for you. You can even chop firewood (if you want to). We aren't savages though. The house comes with Bluetooth speakers, Wi-Fi and a smart TV.
Constructed in 1946, this home is full of memories from the families who owned it since. Lots to admire on the walls, over the mantel and in the shelves. If you can handle some imperfect floors and a clawfoot tub with an iron curtain rod, you'll thrive here. You want to get away and we want to get you away, so we left this house as close to the original as possible. Welcome to the past!

This cabin sits just one block from the town park, local boutiques, and dining. It's hardly a five-minute walk to the local Brewery, and to the world class ice park. Lake City boasts Gold Metal Waters for your fly fishing desires, including guided trips, and is connected directly to the Alpine Loop, a fabulous and scenic 4x4 drive trip through the San Juan mountains. If you don't own a four-wheel drive vehicle, there are plenty of rental options right in town. Along the loop, you will pass Lake San Cristobal (located just a couple miles from town), the second largest natural lake in the state. Spend the day on a paddle board, boat, or fish from shore. Take a walk out to the island on the suspension bridge. In the winter, bring your ice skates, cross country skis, or fishing hut! Hinsdale County also contains five, fourteen-thousand-foot mountains for all your high elevation needs. At a population of just over 400 year-round residents, Lake City gives you small town vibes with all the modern amenities you want, and plenty to do for the whole family! Enjoy!
